Let me tell you exactly what happend to me. I've wanted this set for a while, the only place I could reliably get one seemed to be on Amazon. So I decided to buy one. From New York to Sweden, it literally only took about three weeks to get it. I was really impressed with that. The box was however slightly damaged on a corner and one of the lego bags inside was a little torn. I found a few pieces lying loose in the box, but it wasn't a big deal, all the pieces were still there.
Now about the product! The UCS Slave 1 is an incredible LEGO display model. It looks amazing, it's sturdy and it has become my favourite set by far. If you're buying this as a play-set (your intentions is to man-handle it/play around with it) you'll get dissapointed. I know the designer said it's meant to be both a display AND play-set. But it's just way to big and heavy. It's definitely sturdy enough for display, but it's not sturdy enough for playing around with. Dropping this thing will guarantee you a manhunt for lego pieces for a couple of hours. The building process went great! The instructions were clear and I didn't have any issues what so ever. It's definitely not the easiest set to build, but it's not the hardest either.
Now about the price. It's expensive no doubt. Especially with the shipping price. But it really depends. I wouldn't recommend this to your kids, or if you're a new collector or just not that big of a fan. But IF you are a big fan of Star Wars/Boba Fett/Slave 1, IF you're looking for a display model (NOT A PLAY-SET) and IF you appreciate the shapes and details of the set. Then it is definitely worth it!

I’m beyond proud to own this set.
so, the set is amazing. one of the best lego products around. the true mini figure scale and the attention to detail that the designer put into the set is immaculate. I had so much fun building the set and it’s one of the proudest things I own, and I display it loudly.now, the price is steep . incredibly incredibly steep. I wanted this set so badly that I shelled out the money but others may not be so willing. I remember checking the price of this set 7-8 months ago and it was $330? anyway, everything came as delivered and luckily, I am not a box collector because it came in decent shape aside from knicks on the edges. the fronts and the backs of the box were pretty scraped. I know some people like to collect the box so, be weary of this purchase especially for the price it is.overall, I made the choice to spend the money, and I don’t collect the boxes so, this was just it for me and so much more.amazing set.
