It looks cool, but I'm not super impressed given its price tag. I remember paying a bit less than that for a full-sized Star Destroyer when I was younger, which was a way cooler set piece. I feel the Master Builder stuff looks more appealing when it can be both a set piece and a playset, and I feel this one is going to be good for playing with but a bit too disjointed to be much else. I can't recall if they've already done this, but a Master Builder Mon Calamari Cruiser on a similar scale to the Star Destroyer would be awesome.

Honestly when I saw the piece count I was expecting the price to be more lol. 

I'll just stick with the OG cantina:

Now that's a blast from the past! My older brother had one of these as a kid, but lost the Greedo and the Stormtrooper to the wears and tears of time. We still have the Dewback piece somewhere in the green lego box, I think!
