Figure Set Reviews

Legos has taken a lesson from models and added decals to their kits. One negative point regarding the decals; the instructions telling where to put the decals are weak. Beyond that small point, this is yet another excellent set in the Star Wars Legos series.

The Vulture Droid part of this set is just okay. The Vulture Droid either looks like a small space ship, or you can rearrange it to make a droid that stands up. The side pieces swivel when in the ship configuration, and the legs swivel in the droid configuration. As I said, there is nothing special with this portion of the set.

The Revenge of the Sith Jedi Starfighter is very cool. The wingtips fold for landing and you can position them in various aspects for flight. The wings also have a limited range of motion. The landing gear also moves into a stowed position for flight, which is really a nice feature because it makes the starfighter appear very streamlined. The cockpit opens so that Annakin Skywalker can get in and out of the starfighter. Annakin also has a light saber that comes with this kit. The light saber can be a pain to get into the cockpit, so I stuck it on a little piece that is part of the wing.

Other reviewers seem to dwell on the fragility of this set. The Vulture Droid is not fragile at all. The starfighter is a little fragile. There are a couple of pieces that seem to want to come off a bit too easily. However, with a little care the pieces will stay on nicely. A little bit of fragility is the price you pay for having a lot of features and details.

The Sith Jedi Starfighter is a nice addition to a collection of Star Wars Legos. I think of the Vulture Droid as a bonus. You need this cost effective set for your collection. Enjoy!

This toy is great, do not listen to those reveiws that say its not that durable it is very durable ( unless you throw it ) wich i dont throw my lego i place them on the ground. If your not sure if you should buy this or not buy it! I got the ultament space battle kit and boy im sure happy with it! anakins starfighter is very sleek and cool looking and they both have lots of parts that move up and down! this is the best lego set i have bought. It has never broke for me before and i thought it would. I mean it! Dont listen to most of the reviews!
You have to get this set and i would keep going on about how much FUN this set is! GET IT!

This toy is great.It's cool,decent price,and awsome look.But don't compare it to a hasbro starfighter,thier totally different.Overall if you need a lego ship for your person this is great.

My 5-yr-old loves this toy. I was surprised that it really works. I feared that the dominos wouldn't stay up or would get caught in the truck, but it works great. A great introduction into cause & effect without all the work setting up regular dominos. Definately a fun toy to get or give. I'd say the target age group would be 3-6 yr-old Boys.

Very ingenious toy. Toy works well on smooth surfaces. Does not work well on tile floors. Would be really nice if the truck could be controlled by using a remote.

My boys got this for Christmas and it is such a fun toy! As a matter of fact older kids find it irresistable too. My nephews who are in their twenties layed right down on the floor and REALLY got into it too. A+ for this toy!

You can not assume that King Kong is included in this play set. IT IS NOT. That requires an additional purchase and expense. Without it you will have a rather useless toy and a dissapointed child on your hands.

after the last day of school was near my birthday and my mom got me the king kong skull island playset, everything worked out well, the pieces snapped in place as it should have. i have already gotten the giant insects, the t rex king kong, and 7 figures. so it all went together very well. this is an offical king kong toy, and is probably the best one of them all. enjoy!

The above statements were written by my son.

Overall the toy is okay; not perfect, but he seems happy with it so far.

We bought this at an 83% discount (Amazon) for under $7.

I do not think this toy is worth the retail jacked up price of $40, nor would I have paid that.

My son gave 5 stars for everything, but there is nothing educational about this toy.

Durability seems about par for the molded plastic every toy seems to be made of these days.

I think if you have a few of the action figures (sold by themselves) they would compliment the toy tremendously and make it worthwhile and fun.

The toy alone is just lacking.

The King Kong playset is great.I had a lot of fun with it.The only thing I don't like about it is it is missing King Kong.Other then that,it is great!!!!!

I bought this thinking my son would enjoy it at about a year and a half. As soon as I put it on the fridge he understood how to push the buttons and really enjoys the song. I like the song too, the voice is not one that makes you cringeeach time you hear it, instead you chuckle at the silliness of it. I think every child should have one of these.

This fun little toy helps entertain my daughter while I do dishes and get dinner ready. She initially just had fun fitting the pieces into the main toy; now she brings the magnets to us and says "horse" or "cow." It's the rare educational and fun toy that makes sounds but isn't terribly annoying. There are also two volume levels, which is good for the parents.

Received this as a gift for my 5 month old son. He LOVES it!!!! His face just lights up & he gets the biggest grin whenever he hears it and we dance to the music. BONUS: It's also a great way to distract a hungry baby while his bottle warms.

We bought this toy for our son and he LOVES it! Very creatively built toy! There are little "surprises" as well (a safe full of money and a hidden recipe for the krabby patty, etc.) This is an adorable toy!

I bought this for my 22 month old son for easter. When I opened it the only thing it did was light up...I put fresh batteries in and same thing, just lights no sound whatsoever! I was hoping to see his face light up in the morning, now we have to take it back.

I thought this would be a great toy for my 17 month old when we were in the store he cried to have it when we got home he cried when I sat down with him to play with it I was upset when I found out it only says A-L it could have at least said the whole ABC's and to me that is a heavy toy to carry around and the age on it is 6-36 months the hammer is heavy my son hit his hand and was in tears to me it should have been around $7.99 and maybe even cheaper I am very upset I spent $19.99 for it I wasted my money.

We got this toy for our son for Christmas. We thought it was cute, and my husband liked the idea of our son "hammering"... very macho, you know. Well. Our son does in fact like the hammer. It goes everywhere with him. And he hammers EVERYTHING with it; coffee table, walls, floor, couch, my knee... Which hurts, in case you're wondering. The only thing he does not hammer is..... the Toolbench!

Not that the Toolbench is bad. He likes to push the shapes and watch them light up and the little men pop up, and he enjoys listening to the music. The tape measure is cute; he likes the songs and likes to watch it spin. But overall, it's not a big attention grabber. He will play with it for a few minutes if he just happens to sit down near it, but it's not a favorite and he never plays with it for more than a minute or two. There are a lot of toys out there that hold his attention for 10 to 15 minutes or more.

In my opinion, if you want to buy a toolbench, get one of the old-fashioned ones with the pegs that you hammer down, then flip over and hammer again. Sometimes the old classics really are better than the new-fangled "improved" versions.

I bought this as a gift to give to my daughters friend, but now that we've gotten it and I see the packaging I won't be able to do that. It's in a plain black and white box with all the figures shoved in together. They're still good toys and my daughter will love them, but its not appropriate for giving as a gift unless its in combination with the doll house I guess.

I agree with a previous review that the packaging dosen't allow this product to be given as a gift for another child, but it was a wonderful gift for my own. There were so many pieces and they were all wonderful. It would have cost me double the amount easily if I were to by them individually in the store.

I am three years old and I received these characters for my birthday. I love them so much that they come to bed with me each night. I pretend play with them everyday. I love Dora so much and think these toys are awesome. It is nice that they come separate because my mommy and daddy can't afford the big Dora house.

My 2 year old LOVED this toy but I returned it because it kept going off track in the same spot. The train would not complete the full circle 8 as described and was intended to do. I was tired of my son yelling "it broke" every time he tried to use it. Sad because he really enjoyed it the 3/4th's of the track that it did stayed on.

THIS LIL' PEOPLE TRAIN SET IS JUST WONDERFUL.
THIS WILL BE MY 7TH PURCHASE OF THIS PRODUCT.
EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS BEEN GIVING BIRTH TO BOY CHILDREN, AND WE KNOW HOW BOYS LOVE TRAINS...
I FEEL THIS TOY IS GREAT FOR BOTH SEXES ACTUALLY...
IT HAS MANY GREAT LEARNING TOOL QUALITIES.
IT SEEMS TO BE A FAVORITE TOYS BY MOST.
I AM HOPING THAT NOW, MY GOD DAUGHTERS SONS WILL ENJOY MANY YEARS TO COME PLAYING WITH THIS PRODUCT, AS OTHERS HAVE.
CIAO'

We purchased this item for my son for Christmas '05. He was 12 months old at the time. We set it up in the living room under the tree, along with several other presents, and it was the first thing that our son went for in the morning. (I have to mention that my husband played with it for the better part of an hour the night before.)

The conductor is the perfect size to be used as a Binky. The poor little conductor stayed in our son's mouth for the rest of Christmas morning, and a lot of the time since then. He plays with the train every day, but usually just with the engine. He brings it into the kitchen or living room, and it runs quite well on most floor surfaces; carpet, linoleum, tile. It bogs down a little on the bathroom rug, but I don't see that as being a problem.

I think that this toy has great staying power. Right now, my son (at 13 months) does not really play with the set as intended; i.e. running the train around the track, but he gets a lot of enjoyment out of it and I believe it will hold his attention for the next few years. We have a few other Fisher-Price Little People sets (like the Ramps Around Garage) and are planning on adding more over the next year, and it's nice that all the pieces are compatible and you can basically build a little city.

There are a lot of cute details of the train set that you may not see by looking at the box. In the "farm" area, the windmill on the barn turns. At the train depot, the clock hands turn. And my favorite is the "country" area. There is a swing in the tree that the Little People fit in, and it actually swings. Very cute. There is also a taxi station, but it doesn't have any moving parts; it's just a platform with a pay phone and a curb area. You also get three Little People (the conductor and two passengers), some luggage, a box of fruit, and a potted plant. All of these fit in the train cars or sit as scenery in the different areas, but do not attach anywhere... great for imaginative play.

Over all, we are very pleased with the train set. It was worth the money, and I think it has a long "life expectancy", play-wise. And, like most other Fisher-Price toys, it's very well constructed and can take the abuse that a typical baby dishes out.

We received this as a Christmas gift for our 3 year old son and the heads from the pteradactyl and the triceratops broke off within 2 weeks of receiving them. They weren't even playing rough with them. The pteradactyl's head snapped off and cannot be repaired and the triceratop's head became unglued. Now I've discovered that the tyrannosaurus's jaw is broken on one side.

This item is better than expected my son absolutely loves it. It is a gentle side to dinosuars.

My 34 month old son just loves playing with all the dinosaurs. He's learning about volcanos and colors. So far everything is holding up to the "love" a toddler dishes out.
