Low Price Halo Wars Aerial Ambush

Over All Rating Reviews :

I purchased this set for my son for his 8th birthday. He loves all things Halo and was very excited to get a set featuring two of the flying vehicles featured in the series. Sadly, the shoddy manufacturing quality of this kit has meant more frustruation than fun for him.

I selected this set because it appeared to be a decent value. It contains a UNSC (human) Sparrowhawk as well as a Covenant (alien) Banshee, thus allowing for some good play scenarios without the need to buy more sets. The articulated and detailed figurines are also far more realistic than Lego's iconic blocky figurines.

The instructions are decent, though they vary enough from Lego logic to cause a few moments of head-scratching as you puzzle out what they mean. But there's nothing that can't be figured out with a minute or two of effort.

The real problems surfaced in handling the actual pieces. The appearance and color are not uniform, with many pieces having swirly patterns that appear to be anomolies from the plastic molding process. More seriously, the pieces generally do not fit into place tightly, meaning they can be knocked loose at the slightest touch. A few pieces were warped enough that they simply did not fit at all.

If you are more of a collector and plan to build these for display purposes only, then you're probably fine. But if you actually want to play with your creations, be prepared for pieces falling off at every movement and touch.
