He was ecstatic upon receiving this set and plays with it all the time. This was my grandson, Kahlil's, first Star Wars Lego set. He works with blocks, Legos, all sorts of building and creation toys. He makes his own creations from it as well. Wonderful for the imagination.
After smoothing the plates down, I reassembled the set and I am very happy with it. I had collected LEGOs when I was younger (being now 24) and have not purchased any new sets until just recently. When I finished putting the whole thing together, I found that the large clear discs that make the wheels are securely fastened in place and do not rotate whatsoever. I decided to grind off the studs on the clear plates so that the wheels would spin freely on their axels. Power tools should never be operated without adult supervision. I just wanted the hailfire droid. I wanted this set because it just looks freaking cool.
I could care less about the spider droid (I assembled it anyways). The big wheels and cool treads made the Hailfire droid very attractive to me. The Hailfire Droid & Spider Droid (set 7670) is a fairly amusing set. I tried simple different configurations to get the wheels to roll. One method worked a little but the outer fender would wobble loose. *NOTE* I used a motorized Dremel to shave off the studs and I used Eye protection. 40 links proves too loose. The set comes with four minifigs, three battle droids (one being a yellow chested Droid Commander) and one Super battle droid (which really looks dumb) The battle droids all have SE-14 Blaster pistols.Corollary: The assembly of the wheels asks you to use 40 links to make the treads.
I saw the mid size Millennium Falcon at walmart and that sparked my interest in LEGOs again. The model rolls along as it should. Well, that just won't do. I wanted it to roll. The spider droid is very simple to assemble and looks funny. 39 links works perfectly.There are a few extra pieces left over after assembly.This set is really nice.
dollars. It is great for expanding your sepertist army. This toy is fun but the halfire part is less than the spider droid it has a good num of battle droids but the super battle droid keeps falling down. You have to buy it before LEGO notices. (the trade federation, dark side or whatever you want to call it)the set is under valued. It is worth [.]. lol. but i like it.
. it is fun, durable but of course it does not help to educate your child.
This is an okay set. It comes with a commander droid, (you can only find these in one or two other sets) spider droid and hailfire droid, and a super battle droid and two battle droids.pros:-commander droid-Powerfulcons:-boring to play with alone-loops around the wheels is tediosA decent set, get it to strengthen your droid army, not to play alone or model.
