LEGO Star Wars Boarding the Tantive IV - Interactive Building Toy with Door Blast Function, plus 7 Minifigures incl. Darth Vader and ARC Trooper Fives - Gift for 8+ Year Old Boys & Fans 75387

This is an awesome Lego Star Wars set depicting the iconic scene from New Hope when Darth Vader is first introduced to audiences. It is a faithful recreation of a section of the hallway from the Rebel ship, the Tantive IV, which the imperial forces board - the white hallways and various details look great and it is obvious that a great deal of effort has been made on the part of the design team to get it looking just right. There are also some pleasing play features incorporated, which are surprisingly effective making the set ideal not only for adult collectors but also younger fans. The mini figure selection is generous, with Vader and his two Storm Troopers matched up with Captain Antilles and two Rebel Fleet troopers. In fact, I am tempted to get a second copy of the set, as many of these figures are desirable army builders. The set manual even goes as far as suggesting this as an option, with technic connectors making it possible to clip two of the builds together to make a longer hallway! As with several other sets this year, a special 25th anniversary figure is included. These are characters from wider Star Wars lore, not necessarily ones that would feature in the particular set they are in. The one included in this set, Clone ARC trooper Fives, is a popular character from the clone wars TV series and one I never really expected Lego to make. As a collector, this made the set a must have for me. The Fives figure looks great, with lots of detail including printed arms, an accurate face including his facial hair and distinctive tattoo, a brick built backpack and a cloth paldron. I am aware the helmet hasn’t gone down so well in certain quarters, but it does match the current style of Lego clones and if it bothers you that much, it’s not hard to source custom made alternatives these days. In general, this ranks among the best Lego clone trooper figures produced to date. As with the other 25th anniversary figures, it comes complete with a buildable display stand featuring a printed tile. The figure itself does not have 25th anniversary branding, which makes it more desirable when compared to the earlier 20th anniversary figs. With such a generous mini figure count for a Star Wars set and a great build combined, I would definitely recommend this set. The recent 20% discount for this set on Amazon has also been a great deal if (like me) you are a collector on a budget!

Great lego set, im more of a ucs builder but this went great with the sets I have. Build time was a 1-2 hours with my kids helping and had great fun playing and reenacting the first screen for the movie. A very solid set with great design for playing a action sequence. Love how you can make the stormtroopers go flying and the open and closing only the blast door 👌🏼

This is a fantastic set that represents one of the most iconic openings in film history. Whilst it’s not one of the ‘Diorama’ sets normally associated with scenes, it’s hard to see why not? You can normally pick this up with a discount (mine was £35 when I bought it) and that makes it even better value for money. Minifigures are great and offer something a little different, plus the sliding door is a really cool little feature and a good sturdy mechanism. Took me about an hour to assemble and is a great addition to my collection.

Bought two. Me and my partner build one each I was building it mirrored. Was so much fun to build and now it sits proudly on our shelf as a scene played out in the movie. Got it on sale though as a bit over priced but still it’s as good as Lego gets being nice and sturdy and their quality is as good as ever :D

Good quick build, fun for all ages alongside being a good decoration peace for a room. good size to fit in most little places yet stand out. high detail yet minimalist and overall makes a brilliant gift.

My son loved it gave him hours of entertainment

Loved it worth my money fun to assemble it build quality it brilliant good size looks great

amazing great playability, has a few spare pieces for u to use. It has great displayability and didn’t take long to assemble, u can make amazing battles with the play features

Das Produkt überzeugt mit guter Qualität und solider Verarbeitung. Es ist einfach zu bedienen, funktioniert zuverlässig und macht insgesamt einen hochwertigen Eindruck. Auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt. Eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die auf Alltagstauglichkeit und Langlebigkeit Wert legen.

Set lego straordinario per fan di Star wars.

A very memorable scene in Star Wars and translates very good in Lego form. It's also surprisingly good value since since you get 7 minifigures. I think the 25th anniversary phase 2 clone ARC trooper Fives could be improved if it had a cloth waist cape or if the cape print extended on the sides aswell. But other than that, this set is one of the best value Lego Star Wars sets of the year. One more thing good to mention is that in the instructions it's mentioned that you have the option to buy 2 of this set and combine them into one. However the common mirror build mod seen on YouTube arguably looks even better.

The minifigures here are great, as is the incorporation of Fives, a long-awaited Star Wars character to be translated into Lego. As for the function, the design is outstanding, with all the different cool features to play with.

My grandson loved it!
