The Milano vs. The Abilisk Reviews
“All in all, by itself, I think this is a very good set. The price is good for what you get in the box: good ship, decent minifigures, and a nice Abilisk. Unfortunately, the new Milano fails in comparison to the 2014 one. If you can pick up the old one I'd probably recommend... More it over this one, but the new one is still a good model and a fun ship. Definitely recommend to those who don't have the 2014 Milano set.”

“Yet another set that is made up of bright and slightly less common parts, which will definitely help it stand out on the shop shelves. The inclusion of an Abilisk seems like a bit of a waste of pieces when the Milano feels so small, although some may find it's one of the... More appeals of the overall set. I suppose it does give the Guardians something to defeat with all those weapons.”

“76081 The Milano vs. The Abilisk is inevitably going to be compared with its predecessor from 2014 and this sets a high level of expectation. The Milano itself is considerably smaller than that found in 76021 The Milano Spaceship Rescue but I still like it very much as the... More details are thoroughly impressive and the new printed canopy looks splendid. It is a shame that the entire team cannot be placed inside but squeezing four minifigures into the cockpit is a reasonable compromise in my view.”
