The appeal of R2-D2 transcends generations and makes this set a great pick if you're looking to relive great movie moments, start a collection or just spend some quality hours this summer building by yourself or with family. The set is recommended for builders ages ten and up so it's great for dedicated adult fans, yet still accessible to younger builders interested in Star Wars.
With 1,050 pieces, this R2-D2 brick-built model manages to maintain all of the charm and delicacy of the screen original droid. The completed figure stands over 9 inches in height, and you'll notice immediately how accurate and true to the film version it is.
You will enjoy discovering the many fun features in the process: R2-D2's head can rotate a full 360 degrees, and brings a sense of life and personality to the finished figure. The third leg is detachable so you can switch back and forth between R2-D2's original standing posture and his classic rolling position. There is also an attachable periscope and play elements familiar to fans from throughout the saga which are added authenticity for play or add to imaginative play for display.
LEGO made sure collectors and avid fans would love this set with an added 25th Anniversary Darth Malak mini-figure which is a special touch that won't be ignored by those who think highly of special mini-figs. Play is the focus of the set but display value is possible and it comes with a tidy information plaque to aid in completing the Star Wars atmosphere.
Finding a set with this level of detail and collector interest for only $79 is rare.
