Tri-Fighter? Well, blow me hearties!

The first thing that grabed me for this set was the fact that it had twent-nine parts associated with click-hinges and 15 pieces with studs on three sides out of four, and also some red size-2 plus rods (you normallty only get those in black). So this is a great set to pick up even if you don't want to build it, it certainly has enough parts to make a child happy. (And I am a child, so I'm very happy indeed!)

Give this set a tri

Watching this set take shape is probably the best part of the assembling process, with the outcome being a great-looking fighter craft. Pieces that you have to "click" into place can (sometimes) make an assembly tedious; and it's (sometimes) hard to tell what the right number of clicks is (i.e. Clone Scout Walker). But everything works perfectly here. The reason I say watching it come together is best is because with the Tri-Fighter comes tri-assembly, meaning you are doing the same thing per step, basically, three times (x3). Some people may not be bothered by this, while others may look for more variety from step to step. Nevertheless, it's not a big problem.

Great Lego

This Lego set is one of the best! Unlike the Jedi Starfighter and the Vulture Droid, this set is very durable. If I drop it on concrete, no pieces fall apart! It is also cool with the little buzz droid that comes out of it. How is a Lego educational? Whatever the educational value might be, this is a great Lego!
