With this LEGO set, you can pretend you are Cad Bane, the bounty hunter from Duro who was hired to free Ziro the Hutt from the Republic Judiciary Central Detention Center. In order to free the Hutt, Bane decides to take the entire Senate hostage and demand his release. Cad Bane's Speeder 8128 LEGO set consists of Cad Bane's speeder and five minifigures: Cad Bane, the mercenary Shahan Alama, a Senate Commando, a Senate Commando officer, and an elite assassin droid.
The best part of Cad Bane's Speeder 8128 set is the LEGO minifigures, and the Star Wars Bane minifigure is by far the most popular. The blue-faced character wears a big, brown hat and has breathing tubes on his face. He carries a weapon in each hand and has gray legs. The Senate Commandos are also well-loved by fans. These Star Wars minifigs are blue with black features and weapons. The officer has some white markings on his face and chest. The Shahan Alama minifigure is very detailed, but the elite assassin droid could have been designed better.
Although the minifigs are the most sought after Star Wars toys in this set, the speeder is cool and is a lot of fun to play with. The ship is equipped with missiles in the front that can be fired with a trigger mechanism on the underside. There is a hatch in the back that is large enough to store the weapons. Up to six minifigures can be seated in the ship, but you may need to modify it a little to fit the elite assassin droid into the passenger area.
The biggest complaint about this set is that some people have had problems with the speeder falling apart while playing with it. You may need to add a few well-placed bricks on the bottom of the ship to prevent this. However, it is not enough of a problem to prevent satisfied customers from recommending this set of Star Wars Clone toys.
Cad Bane's Speeder 8128 LEGO set is a must-have set for Star Wars LEGO collectors, and Star Wars fans will have a lot of fun re-enacting the rescue of Ziro the Hutt from the Republic prison. This LEGO set is easy to put together. It only takes about an hour to assemble, so you can be playing with your new set of Star Wars toys in no time, swooshing Cad Bane around in his speeder as he heads off to free the Hutt from his captors.
