Australian review of Lego set 75265 T-16 Skyhopper vs Bantha Microfighters

Here’s a little Lego set that’s really good value and should be a good set to collect.  It is a fantastic little kit and they say is based on Episode IV A New Hope.

The sets full name is T-16 Skyhopper vs Bantha Microfighters (75265) starship, is really an easy building set and although we collect them, this set is a good one to play with seeing its got two good vehicles and two great Lego minifigures to muck around with.

The T-16 Skyhopper vehicle has two working guns that shoot out stud pieces and a place for the minifigure pilot to sit in.  The Bantha creature is really cool and is posable in a little way.  It has a saddle on top for you to sit the minifig Tusken Raider on and also a Bantha stick (or is it a staff?) holder if you don’t want the Tusken Raider to hold it.
The head of the Tusken Raider is really detailed I think, they’ve done a great job with this one.  Both of these minifigures would be good to collect I reckon.

The kit has 198 parts in the box and doesn’t actually take too long to build.  It would be a good one for a parent to build one and your little kid build the other together as some fun.

Lego, as they seem to being doing now, has the T-16 Skyhopper vs Bantha Microfighters (75265) instructions to download here https://www.lego.com/en-au/service/buildinginstructions/search#?search&text=75265 . You’d be able to make the Bantha and T-16 Skyhopper out of spare Lego bricks you have around I would think as no bricks are really special to be honest, but of course you’d miss out on the minifigs.
