Anakin Skywalker and Sebulba's Podracers Reviews
Eurobricks
“This set is one worth picking up, even at full price. It has just a few design flaws, and the minifigures have just a few issues, but it won't feel like you're being skimped for your money. Unless you could really care less about podracers, this is a set worth getting.”
FBTB
“Final thoughts on the set? It’s great. The piece count is a lower than the old one (about 100 less), the price is the same ($90 USD), and there’s one less pod. But in the old set, piece count was inflated by the race pieces, brick-built pit droids, and ugly stands. The pod... More that’s gone isn’t really all that big of a deal (especially since with the new parts we’re getting, we can probably improve on it and build a nicer one in the new style), and the two remaining are quite a bit nicer.”
