“Overall it's well-designed, has some good pieces, and offers a lot of play value - to me those are all the hallmarks of a quality LEGO set and I certainly recommend this one.”

“A nice set, with the massive helicopter being the main attraction. And let's be honest, the only reason to consider buying this set is the helicopter. This is a nice set, with a whole lot of potential, and that IMHO could have been much better. As it is, it feels as if it is... More somewhat incomplete - the hide-out is too small and there are not enough minifigures included to properly crew the helicopter.”
