“This is well-rounded set in terms of minifigs, parts, looks, and playability. The model captures the gritty look of General Grievous' wheel bike yet rolls easily. The parts selection is average, but the high parts count helps sell the set to builders. The new white version... More of General Grievous will surely be popular and is guaranteed to be popular among collectors. It's one of the best Star Wars sets in the low-medium price range.”
“The best part about this LEGO build is the Wheel Bike actually spins around. It works like a real wheel. It holds itself together perfectly. Very sturdy and solid build. The finished product truly is an amazing sight.”
