Compartment

The Compartment for the minifigs is very cool. Reminds me of Starcom Toys.

Great Pics!

I haven't read all the way through the review yet, but I'd like to say that the last photo is one of the best I've seen on CDX. Really cool!

These Lego Star Wars toys are pretty great. Definately something my folks would have bought me as a kid and I would have LOVED them. Too bad I've got zero room for these, but they sure are tempting every time I see them in store.

This is a great toy

I got one of these for Christmas last year and it was a blast.

The missile-shooters seem to have enough internal friction to hold the missile even if you don't lock it down; you stick it in just far enough to feel some spring resistance and then leave it. This keeps you accidentally shooting your missiles.

Be careful with the vertical fin! It's not a very solid connection, and people will often grab the thing by the vertical fin and break it off.

I like the way that the "pod bay" is set up. I have the idea of this thing coming in like the Drop Ship from "Aliens"; it touches down, kicks out the pod, and immediately takes off again.

The cargo section on the

The cargo section on the Sentinel-class shuttle wasn't meant to drop away; that's a LEGO-only feature.
