Only down side is the small pieces and if it breaks you have to pull the instructions out again.but that is expected with all lego sets like this. Its a great hour or so for us to spend together while we build it and then he plays for hours with it along with the other sets. My son just turned 5 and loves Star Wars and recently became interested in Legos. Although the instructions are easy for him to follow because they are just pictures, sometimes it does call for adult interaction on the smaller pieces and stickers.
Then again, it doesn't really matter if they break because half the fun is crashing them.you can't play Star Wars without crashing spacecrafts according to my sons. I have another son who is 6 yrs. old, and together they play w/ these Star Wars sets, and for the most part, they (the spaceships) stay intact. My son received this for his 5th birthday, and absolutely loves it. We will definitely continue purchasing these Star Wars sets. He enjoys playing pretend Star Wars with the Anakin & R2 D2 characters that are included. He loves LEGOS and Star Wars. Once it is put together, which by the way is fast and simple, it really is pretty durable.
CHOKING HAZARD. DO NOT BUY if you have children in the house that still put things in their mouth. But if this is not a problem than I highly recommend these toys. My 10 yr old son loves putting these together. Only problem is they're easily destroyed by younger siblings.
Also, Anakin and R4 figure is great since you "need" those figures to play pretend Star Wars. Even though after rough playing, some parts come apart, it's pretty easy to put them back together. This is one of my son's favorite lego set. It's actually pretty durable and very bright in colors.
You can honestly depend on Lego to make kick butt toys well worth their money. He actually avoids Hasbro Star Wars toys because we had really bad experiences with those toys falling apart and being cheaply made. Really happy with the purchase. My son loves lego Star Wars sets. He doesn't even break them apart because they look so good.
