LEGO Reviews

One has to wonder how Peter Parker can remain anonymous when he has his own helicopter - with his red, blue & webby pattern on it, to boot! Your kids won't care, though - as they imagine themselves aboard the Spidey Chopper, fighting Doc Ock and other sinister villains.

Doc Ock has his attached tenticles and a cool yello sports motorcycle. THere is a ramp for the motorcycles (there are 2!) and Spidey has a web attachment for his copter. Two police barricades also add elements that can be included in any other LEGO set to expand the possibilities of what your child can invent and build!

My 5 year old son received this gift for his birthday and has been playing with it non-stop for over a week! It has many different configuration options and he loves the small Spiderman and Doc Ock figures that comes with it. I would recommend it for the young Spiderman/Lego lover in your home!

its pretty good but i have all the bionicle toys thay are easy to build very simple the tools are an amasing thing there cindove ejacatoinale sry bad typin umm so far may favrite ones are the green red black and white ones it would be nice if thay mad them bigger tho whele there to many things to say in this paragraph so i might be back

This is one of the greatest bionicles ever made! I own the Toa Nuva,(including the mask of Light),the Rahkshi,and the Toa Metru,
(my brother even has Makuta!),and I've gotta tell you,the Vahki
are the greatest ones yet! A couple days ago,I got Vahki Rorzakh,
which was my first Vahki,and right when I got it,I knew that it would be an awesome Bionicle! And it is! It can transform into a
spider lookin' thing,and it comes with a Kanoka disk that can shoot out of it's jaws! It is pretty easy to build if you have experienced building Bionicles,otherwise,it'll take a little longer for you if you have never built any Bionicles,but you'll catch on to it. This is an awesome toy for anybody who loves to build legos,or even for people who have never built legos! Kids,
rush to the store to get your Bionicle today!

The fire hydrant, the flexible "string" of web material, the gates - awesome additions to any Lego set. Not only can you recreate the scene from the movie, these parts can interchange with any other lego set to make endless possibilities in architecture. Legos are truly one of the best toys for mind stimulation on earth!

This lego set is extremely awesome and fun to play with. easily re-enact the scene from the movie, and make up other stories with it. The three minifigs, Spiderman, the robber, and the policeman, are all highly detailed. It even has a cat, spider, and fire hydrant. This set is a definite "must have" for everyone that likes legos and does not already have the set. It is definitely one of my favorites. the only down point is that the gate falls apart sometimes if you are not careful, but the good BY FAR outweighs that one small thing. Send spiderman to stop the criminal for the police, and make up MUCH more.

Thanks for reading my review

This is the best lego set I've ever had! I (or uhh, my parents) had to drive two hours to a lego store to get this. It's very hard to find. But it was worth it. It may not seem so, because this set being $100, comes with 700 pices, while others, like the AT-AT and Millinium Falcon, both $100 also, come with around 1000. But this has many huge floor pieces and has a huge footprint. I've got the Falcon, and it will fit on just the landing pad. If that ship will, any ship will! So, starting with the coolest place, the carbon freezing chamber. Turn the knob on the back, Han will go down, push him to the side, the other will automaticly slide into place, turn the knob again, and he'll come up in carbonite. Plus it's got all these neon orange bricks all over it. Cool. Next coolest, that place where Vader and Luke fight. Looks pretty normal, but pull back a brick and the whole wall falls down! Well, almost the whole wall. Then, pull back a stick on the side, and Luke will fly through the window and (supposed to) land on the suspention bridge! It takes some sort of technique, but he will do it. Let us not forget the dining room, where you turn a knob (that takes up a lot of room) and the door leading in slides open. Kind of normal. Finally the landing pad, which will fit vitually every ship on it. (one at a time) and a bridge leading from the pad to the main part. If you're going to buy a lego set, get this one! I'll bet it's the most durable set I have, not one (well, mabye one) piece has fallen off for months! It took me about 3 hours to put together, but was more fun to make than any other model I've built!
This is the most reccomended Star Wars Lego set I could offer. Don't buy any other set before this one, worth every penny!

In all fairness, the Cloud City set isn't quite worth the price it's being offered for. But then again, neither is Starbucks coffee. And like their coffee, it's really, really good; but you pay for that goodness. Once you can get past the price (or dupe someone into buying it for you as a gift) you're in for one of the greatest Star Wars Lego sets available. In addition to satisfying all the Lego addicts calling for a Lando minifig, the Cloud City playset delivers a number of things to brag about and show off to your friends. Essentially you get three different scenes in Lego form, as well as a beautiful front view of the Cloud City main gates. You get the dining room, where Vader takes Han's gun out of mid-air; the carbonation chamber, in which Han Solo goes into carbon freeze; and the room and viaduct where Vader and Luke have their infamous, father/son fight sequence. In fact, these three scenes are three of the most infamous from Episode V, 'The Empire Strikes Back'.

The coolest scene (here) is easily the orange, neon-colored carbonation chamber, where you can actually move Han underneath its surface and replace him with the "Han in carbonite" minifig brick (by sliding one figure to the right and moving the other into its place). Most impressive. Next, the dining room is rather basic (for a dining room), although it's the door that slides up that makes it notable. Again, all you have to do is turn a knob and it moves up as effortlessly as it appears to in the film. It opens directly onto the landing platform. The final setting, the "duel room", is highlighted by a stand that flips up, sending Luke through a window and onto the suspension bridge; the place where Darth Vader would eventually cut off Luke's hand and give him the "who's your daddy?" speech. Included in all this is 698 pieces and seven minifigs: Lando, Luke, Darth, Han, Leia, Boba Fett, and a Stormtrooper. Luke, Leia and (obviously) Lando are the exclusives to this set--they aren't available in any other set. Putting this set together took almost two hours, and it was the MOST FUN I have EVER had putting a Lego set together. There are really no steps you have to repeat because of multiple wings or legs, which is something that can sometimes bring the fun-level down a bit (e.g. the X-Wing, the AT-AT). But not here. This is seriously one of the best all-around Star Wars Lego sets of all-time.

The durability of the Cloud City is grand, as long as you aren't moving it around too much. If you do, I recommend detaching the landing platform and making two trips. I'd hate to see this set hitting the ground. Unfortunately, there's a good chance this set will never go on sale or clearance, simply because it is so popular and because it's not available in most stores (I did see it at the Downtown Disney Lego store). So if you don't have the funds to get this set, make sure it's at the top of your Christmas or birthday wish list. Because, really, you shouldn't live another day as a Star Wars Lego fan without the Cloud City set in your possession. Let the force be with you.

I LOVE THIS SET!!!! IF TOYS R US SELLS THIS ITEM IN CANADA... MANY PEOPLE WILL BUY IT!!!! IT IS SO POPULAR!!!!
