    Pros:
    - Good number of pieces inc Cad Bane and Aayla Secura (both looking great imo)
    - Great playability and features -The wheels look great in motion and have a really simple but effective suspention system
    - Nice little foldaway walker and lots of opening panels and compartments
    - Looks good on the shelf

    Cons:
    - Lack of Clones, Its a Clone Turbo Tank with only two clones
    - Anakin and Ashoka, people buying this $120 probably have these already, More clones would have been better
    - Very little interior room due to the walker and command desk storage design
    I wasn't too impressed with the main compartment been used as storage for a command desk and fold away walker
    The walker is nice but the features of the desk should of been built into the tank , this leaves the biggest section looking unfinished when they could of had a cool command canter instead of this gimmick

    Comments:
    I had no intention of buying this set until i seen it on Amazon for $90 , For 1141 pieces and two cool new minifigs i had to get it. My intention was to break the set up after building for the pieces , but its been two weeks since i built it and its still on the shelf.
    I built this with my step Son aged 10, Was a fun build with some nice techniques used ( Its basically a Technic frame on wheels with SNOT panels ) but it comes together nicely .
    There is some nice playability features and the 10 year old boy absolutely loved this set and i got some awesome pieces for a great price
    The set isn't perfect but its allot better value (even at $120) than most of the SW sets released over the last couple of years
