Our five year old grandson is seriously into Lego and Star Wars and asked for this for his birthday. Although he couldn’t assemble it himself, he was able to follow the diagrams and push in the pieces with help from his Grandad. They spent many happy hours putting it together and the directions were clear and easy to follow. Of course, he is now enjoying playing with it.

My son actually went online to put this set in his wish list! This is a true winner to give to any serious Lego brickmaster who knows ins and outs of star wars and have many other sets before. This LEGO set contains 568 pieces and includes 3 popular minifigures: Anakin Akywalker, Ahsoka and R2-D2. Compared to the other two star war sets my son built before(8039 and 7675), this set takes much less time to build, has brighter color (yellow as opposed to classic grey and red) and looks really great once it is built. Other fun features include a firing missle and a secret storage compartment to store lightsabers.
