Got this set mainly for the minifigures, and I think it's worth buying for them alone. The Mandalorian minifigure is detailed + the little Grogu is just adorable.

The Mandalorian helmet can be removed and Grogu's ears feels like rubber which I think is a nice touch.

I would have liked the speeder bike to have stud shooter, but maybe it's too much to ask for in this price point.

Overall for the price I think this small set is worth it if you like The Mandalorian.

Finally done with this and it's going to be one of my favourite lego sets till now. It's amazing how detailed and huge (around 35cms in height) this piece is + it even transforms

Things I liked

1. The instruction booklet had a lot of small small info/facts from the G1 series which were fun to read while building

2. Had quite a few metal looking shiny bricks

3. It transforms

4. As this set transforms, when building there were a lot of small parts that used to move smoothly which were very fun to build

5. Has some rubber stopper like small pegs present below the foot so that the set stays stable standing

6. Very detailed! The head, legs, even the small weapons used so many bricks to give them a very detailed look

7. Includes 5 accessories: Ion blaster, Energon Axe, Energon cube, Sideswipe's jetpack, Matrix of leadership

What could have been better

1. Cannot lift the hand holding the energon axe. The hand keeps on moving down

2. Would have liked if the matrix of leadership was a light brick or it included the optimus sound like the soundwave lego set

3. The transformation isn't very smooth, as some small parts keep falling off and i fear I'll break something. But I guess that's to be expected as it's a Lego set after all.

Overall really enjoyed building this
