 Great gift for a Lego Star Wars fan November 12, 2009

I bought this for my son a few years ago. He loved it and put it together within a few days. It is very fragile once together. At $469.94 this is very over priced. I paid less than $200.00 on Amazon for this set two years ago.

This is a very educational toy. My son has had hours of fun with it and he never seems to tire of it. I would recommend this for anyone.
 Missing pieces... go figure May 12, 2009

I would have figured that in this day in age that I would not be missing pieces on such an expensive Lego set. Not only that, but it is a pain in the rear to put together. It is designed beautifully but difficult to put together. If you are thinking of getting this, I would recommend using super glue to keep the pieces from falling off while building it.
Challenging, but worthwhile July 23, 2008

Probably the most challenging Lego set I've put together. Many have complained about its durability during construction and while I did have several challenges, was able to get it together with only minor difficulties. Once the first half of it is complete (the "incomplete half", I highly recommend moving it wherever it will eventually end up, complete the final steps and finally attach everything to it. It will be difficult to move once it is complete.
My only two complaints are that the stage where you are to attach both portions of the incomplete half are difficult (I recommend super glue, since I found that until I got them both on, either of them fell off easily) and that I was shorted a bag of pieces and had to get replacements online.
Overall a challenging kit, but definitely worthwhile. One final bit of advice-during one of the first steps you attach the "steering wheel"-looking thing to the base. Make sure no prongs of this are covered by the support, or you will have to work backwards to uncover them.

Santa brought this behemoth for our 8 year old this year. Translation- Dad spent 5 days at the dining room table with every bowl in the house being used to sort Lego's.
This kit is one of the older style kits. The bags aren't numbered or labeled with any sort of key. All 2000+ pieces needed to be sorted out for building ease.
When building the Death Star, have boxes handy to prop the model up. You build it one half at a time. (left-right)It tips over whenever you let go.
Our son loves the model, and was able to help with the building process, but it's only a matter of time and Nerf darts before it's back to square one.
