| 19 of 20 people found the following review helpful  GREAT HOTH PLAYSET...(and if you don't have a Snowspeeder it's a must get)!, = Durability:  = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: LEGO Star Wars Hoth Wampa Set (8089) (Toy) The Hoth Wampa Cave is a wondeful playset and a great addition to Echo Base (7749), Rebel Trooper Battle Pack (8083) and Snowtrooper Battle Pack (8084). Your kid (7 yrs. on up) will have loads of fun and little trouble building the Wampa Cave with Luke dangling above in the rafters awaiting his fate from the Wampa himself...right after he finishes his turkey leg of course...while Zev swooshes around in his nicely designed Snowspeeder desparately looking for Luke.PRO's... - Well designed Snowspeeder. It's quite similar to previous Snowspeeder models but if you've never gotten one it's a must get set. Nice shape and fairly sturdy. Top view looks great (note: I believe the rear gun is different than previous sets). - Cockpit Opens closes in two parts. Front, longer end opens for pilot, then back section (attached to front canopy) tilts open for rear gunner/navigator. - Rear toe cable/grappling hook on a wench. - 2 front cannons and one rear...

My son has most of them as well. This is one that I opened and made to play with him. Our favorites by far are all of the Jabba sets, Cloud City, Sandcrawler, Death Star and the Cantina set. This set however is one of our least favorites. It seems as though Lego is now officially going for pure profit and less durability and playability lately.I am so sick of seeing Lego using cheap stickers for the sets and not printing on the pieces individually. This is a HUGE drawback of the latest sets. Kids can not play with them as little kids are so rough on them that stickers easily come off or get scratched. My son still plays with my old Space legos from the late seventies and early eighties. Those printed pieces are still shiny and bright even though they are heavily used. The second problem I have with this set and other current sets of the last few years is the lack of true baseplates. I think lego is cutting costs by...

An affordable snowspeeder!, By = Durability: = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: LEGO Star Wars Hoth Wampa Set (8089) (Toy) The build is the same as the last set (Echo Base), sturdy and fun. My 7-year-old put it together pretty easily, with a little help. The cave is OK, but a bit of a pain to snap together with the roof. Luke in snow gear, Zev, a skeleton and the Wampa round out a pretty fun little set.Hopefully this starts a trend of Lego releasing decent sets in enough numbers that collectors can't gouge families anymore (*cough* CLOUD CITY *cough*). Boba Fett's Slave 1 is next on the list (A cool new Boba minfig with cape, a new Han in Carbonite and Bossk!). Have fun! |
