Without further ado... pics of the crafts and the opened box.

The set itself contains,
  • Anakin's Jedi Starfighter
  • Obi Wan's Jedi Starfighter
  • Vulture Droid X2
  • Droid Tri-fighter
  • Buzz Droids X2
There's not much to review about this set apart that the only new craft is Obi-wan's starfighter. Even then, it's a re-coloured one, not a new design. Then again, this is probably the only one time in Lego Starwars where you get 5 spacecrafts for the RRP of SGD$79.90, and that's a real big deal by itself.

It's currently out at Watto's Curios, Singapore Science Centre.

7256 Jedi Starfighter and Vulture Droid

Nice post, Valentin. Glad to see that you've gotten around to constructing the set.

Thanks for sharing with us the joy of this LEGO set :)
But that also just makes it harder for me to resist the temptation to get one myself :wink: ...hehe

Actually... this set is so nice... I am now considering to get 5-10 battle droid minifigs and 1 more Droid tri-fighter... for a hanger diorama.

Feels like I am caught in the the Dark Side of Lego... :shock:

Hi Valentin, is it only exclusive at SSC?
TRU or the Lego store at Ngee Ann City doesn't carry such items?

To my knowledge, it's not exclusive to any retailer in SG. But currently only simply toys has brought it in.

There's no news about it in Bricksworld nor TRU yet.

Check out Lego shop At Ngee Ann. It's sold out currently and was retailing at SGD99.xx - SALE PRICE some more. No discounts.
Wah lau. Guess Simply Toys has the reasonable pricing.
