LEGO Star Wars 6211 Imperial Star Destroyer

The Star Wars Lego Star Destroyer set is such a great item i would recommend it to any Star Wars/Lego Fan.

First off, this is a pretty big model. You don't get an awful lot of sets that are bigger than it, so make sure you have room to display it. It was a great build, although I did run into some problems with getting the plates to stay together. In fact, that's my only real criticism of this model - the ship is very flimsy in certain aspects. A lot of the plating of the Star Destroyer is extremely flimsy, despite being high quality Lego; and due to the top being detachable, the model as a whole can be quite easy to push around. The top part of the ship is quite loose, as it simply sits on top of the rest, attached by absolutely nothing. However, the set itself is very good. The great thing about this one is that it's a good enough size to just be a display model, but it also has enough minifig detail for you (or your kids) to be able to play with it. There are some nice minifigures here, and there are even different weapons in storage for the stormtroopers to use. I bought this when it came out for a mere £100, and for that price I can definitely recommend it. However, the price now is quite different, and you can buy the new Super Star Destroyer for around the same amount of money. I'd buy that one if you want a model; though this one's much better in terms of being played with. Overall, a good (though technically flawed) set that might not have a justifiable price tag.

Does what it says on the tin

Having now read the reviews I agree with most that this is not to be played with as a toy. For that reason it is difficult to review as a toy. It will also take you a lot longer than 2 hours to build! The 'numbered' bag system is a joke and it is not long before you are halted and need to look through lots of other bags to find the missing pieces. The 'toy' has a lot of features but there is no point as you can't lift it without it falling apart. The top of the ship also comes off but the release mechanism is so sticky that you can't remove the top without it falling to pieces in your hands. (It is worth noting that this is doubly difficult to re-build after it has collapsed). It is a shame as the finished article looks good and has obviously taken a lot of effort to design and create. It is not a toy, however, but a model to sit on a large shelf and not be touched (unless you want to superglue it together as you go along!). I did get a good price on Amazon though at the time of purchase.

My son took a few days to build it but he loved doing it

My son enjoyed patiently building this model over 4 days at Christmas but found that every time he wanted to play with the model it fell apart as its base is not strong enough to support the model and the engines stick out below the base so they fall off every time it is put down. Finally after months of frustration we contacted Lego who supplied some extra bricks to try and stabilise the base (a known problem obviously) but that didn't work so we returned it. A great model for adults but simply not suitable for playing with - don't waste the money for kids.

We gave this to my Star Wars and Lego-obsessed 8-yo son for Xmas, he absolutely loved the figures in it and loved building it, but ended up face down on the couch crying, saying "I wish I'd never asked for this, I can't play with it!" because the completed spaceship kept falling apart every time he tried to lift it up - the bottom just fell off it. He's a great Lego builder and tried all sorts of fixes to keep the bottom on but to no avail. It's still lying in bits on a chair in his room. Our children have loads of Lego and I always admire Lego's clever functional designs, but Lego was asleep at the wheel on this one. A disappointment.

excellent layout good box all minifigures in bags excellent quality hasn't been used comes with al mini figures all pieces

Bellissimo set

Der Sternenzerstörer ist echt gelungen. Das Modell besticht durch stabile Konstruktion, einer Unzahl netter Details und auch vor allem durch großen Funktionsumfang. Man kann die Brücke öffnen, den oberen Teil komplett weg nehmen, den gesamten Rumpf öffnen und verschiedene Szenen aus dem Film nachstellen. Es ist zwar keine Korellianische Korvette im Inneren, aber die Rettungskapsel kann rausgeschossen werden, Darth Vaders Kammer mit Greifarm für den Helm sind vorhanden, der Telekonferenzraum mit der Silhouette vom Imperator und ein Waffenschrank für die Sturmtruppler. Mehr kann man echt nicht erwarten. Für die Vitrine wäre ein Ständer schön gewesen.

Ich muss sagen dieses Spielzeug/ Modell ist genial. Die Details sind Super und für mich als Starwars Fan gibt es kein besseres Vitrinenmodell. Auch als Spielzeug ist es Super mein kleiner Neffe spielt damit Stundenlang und hat viel spaß. Das vom Produkt Teile runterfallen kann ich nicht behaupten. Das einzige was stört ist das das modell am boden keine Noppensteine hat die glatt sind, dass ist schlecht für Regale aus Holz spielt aber Meinung nach keine so große Rolle wenn man es im Regal stehen hat. Alles in allem Super-Modell daumen Hoch

Mir gefällt STAR WARS überhaupt sehr gut, ist sehr gut sortiert geworden, Steine alle in Ordnung wahren, Packet wie angekündigt geliefert wurde ausser ein paar Steine hatten gefehlt. Alles bestens super.

Gebrauchter Gegenstand in einwandfreiem, wie beschriebenen Zustand. Preis für die Leistung in Ordnung. Die Lieferung erfolgte echt schnell. Es waren alle Teile vorhanden, sowie die Bauanleitung. Alles wirklich toll! Vielen Dank! Gerne wieder
