Set Review: 75110 Luke Skywalker


Recommended Posts

So this figure's only good for getting that new flesh hand color, sweet...He's also the cheapest way to get those new chin pieces in black.

Does anyone else think that the face piece is just creepy?

A bit, but not really. It'd make a great re-used piece for a rebooted Galidor set, though.

 

I probably won't get any of the sets from this new line. This set in particular I'll never be getting, for a couple of reasons. I've got hardly any, if not no interest in Star Wars, so it makes sense that I wouldn't get it in the first place. However, the price-per-piece ratio is what greatly discourages me from getting this, especially when compared with Australia's average retail price of $30 AUD. That's just too expensive, but I applaud LEGO for sharing CCBS with another theme again.

I little bit, yes. Especially if I were to wake up in the middle of the night and see that face looking at me. :P

 

While its great that we have a set for Luke like this, I probably won't be getting him. General Grievous is the only one that I know for sure that I'm getting, though I might also get Vader.

 

But what I want to know is why Luke here has pieces for the back of his legs, but the Commander Cody set doesn't. It kind of confuses me that Lego would give back leg armor to some of its sets in this line but not others. Why not just give said armor to all of them?

 

Anyways, thanks for the review!

Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Well, this review and others I've read have helped confirm for me that the face looks pretty great and that a lot of the complaints about it are just silly. I'm probably going to want to pick one up at some point, whether by buying the set or buying the head individually off BrickLink. It'll be good to be able to build MOCs of human characters without ridiculously blocky faces. It's not perfect, but it certainly looks a lot better than many action figure heads I've seen even from non-LEGO brands.

 

Besides the face and the Light Nougat hand I'm sort of indifferent to this set. It's a really nice, well proportioned, reasonably complete-looking design, but the drab black outfit doesn't have a lot going on to make it visually interesting.

It reminds me of someone in the Bionicle fandom I seen this one time.
