I have noticed a bunch of the reviews for this product are from moms saying that their six year old son enjoyed it. I have enjoyed Lego since about that age, and twenty years later I still get so much joy out of a simple toy. I enjoy them b/c they are novel, quality products and allow for imagination at all ages (while helping develop/practice skills such as problem-solving and following directions.) I have noticed over the years, how much Lego emphasizes making the instruction book the best it can be by making the steps easy to understand. Overall, I think they have really improved how "user-friendly" the instruction books are. They really break it down well. I enjoy the innovation of Lego and have been really impressed with how they handle the movie franchise sets, esp. the Star Wars sets.

I have a bunch of the more recent Star Wars sets, "Darth Vader's Tie Fighter," "Plo Koon's Starfighter," "Luke's Landspeeder," etc. and this one goes along great with all those. This... Read more

This set is advertised for 7-12 year olds. I put it together with my 5 year old, and while he had some issue with the smaller 1x1 pieces, he was able to do the bulk of the construction himself, including 'reading' the instructions and finding where the pieces go. I believe it took us right at an hour to construct, although we did take breaks to battle with the two minifigs.

The cockpit does not close down completely. It is hinged, but there are legos directly underneath the connection piece that looks like it should be able to close completely if you do not want it opened, but they don't reach. The set comes with a bench that gets dropped inside a box, which is then secured inside the back of the cockpit. As the bench does not attach anywhere, it produces a rattling sound when the Freeco speeder is flown.

The minifigs are nice, although I do not think that Anakin looks much like Anakin. The other minifig, Thi-Sen, does not come with a traditional head with... Read more

This is a cool model and my 12-year-old loved it. He likes all of the Star Wars Legos, though, so I wasn't expecting any other reaction!
