I did a full review here with photos:http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=28695&hl=Here is the closing of that review:FeaturesAs mentioned above during the build, the head moves, the base rotates, his body opens to reveal his insides. It's supposed to be more of a static display then something to play with. So as it stands, it's not bad. I would've liked to see his head detailed a little more as his "ears" seem a little off for what it should look like, and he's missing his cape.My rating:Playability: 1 out of 5. It is pose able. That's it. It's a display.Design: 4 out of 5. Well done. Just some minor things. Notably the "ears" and maybe his insides could've been done better.Build experience: 3 out of 5. Easy to build. For 1000+ pieces, it was easy. I guess they rated it for ages 14+ because of the many small pieces, no numbered poly-bags and for having so many pieces.Overall: 4 out of 5. At $89.99 I might have bought it because I think the way General Grievous is made is be-awesome, but Lego's version isn't worth that price. At $29.98 it's a must have for any Lego Star Wars fan to have.
Got this set for christmas. I put it together the next day and It took me roughly 3 hours (with distractions) Afterwards, my finger ached. Mainly do to the fact that the pieces were all small. It was a challenge and thats what I enjoyed the most.Pros:SizeThe different configurations you can set it at (2 or 4 arms)Heavy Duty BaseDetailCons:Set leans forwardPretty fragile
This set is worth $90 and has over 1,000 pieces. If you take the "100 pieces per $10" system, then go for it. The model so detailed-Pros-* Tall* Stand is very detail* Grevious is very detail* 4 detailed lightsabers* Head awesome* Heart is very relaisticCons-* Legs can break from the feet4.5/5
First, let me say that this is a very tall and very detailed set. This comes with plenty of great pieces for you to enjoy. Your vaalue with your money on this is great. You definetley should consider this as a gift for someone or for yourself because this is a fun activity to build and is amazing when you finish building it!
This is a very realistic set. Lego made it very accurately.Pros:BigYou can split apart the chest plate revealing Grievous's organs!I like the collector's display cardCons:Wobbles when you touch itLeans forward I'd highly recommend this set.
