LEGO 7667 is also known as the Imperial Dropship, and coming with 81 pieces, it is worth ten dollars not including shipping and handling. LEGO 7667 has LEGO Star Wars figures that come with the set - one shadowtrooper and three stormtroopers.
The LEGO 7667 was released in 2008. LEGO 7667 Imperial Starship is a light gunship, used for deploying troopers onto the battlefield. Shadowtroopers and Stormtroopers are the ones who fly the Imperial Starship. The LEGO 7667 features a laser cannon and troop platform. The LEGO 7667 measures 4 inches long, and is a simple way to start building an army. What better way to do so than to collect a pilot and three stormtroopers? In addition, the Imperial Dropship can be easily used for ambush while simultaneously knocking out a few enemies. The Dropship actually drops the soldiers, and only when you want it to.
There are cons, however. The ship is uneven when flying, as a result of not enough stormtroopers. The cockpit piece falls off every now and then, and the helmets fall off. Overall, most of the customer ratings have been a five out of ten. Everything seems to fall off, and the Dropship seems to not have enough room for the guns. It is a good LEGO set because of the boost for your Stormtrooper army.
