Flagship of any collection.
The Pelican is an icon of the Halo franchise, and this set is instantly recognizable as one. The shape matches closely the model after which it is designed; the shape is perfect, and the colour is spot on.It took me hours upon hours to get this set built over 3 or 4 days. It contains many little pieces, from 1x1s to 2x2s and so on, while also containing larger, specialized pieces such as the windshield of the cockpit or the wings.Most of the pieces were the same colour, which leads to some issues... Throughout the process, I had real difficulties with finding certain bits. However, in the end I had all the pieces I needed with none missing. Completing the build was challenging but also satisfying. However, I wouldn't recommend it to people without the patience for it. It's not something you can build in an hour and give to your kid.For the price of roughly 150 euro, only 3 figures is pretty disappointing. I wish they threw in a second Hunter at the very least, or even a couple of grunts. Still, the figs that did some with it were of good quality, especially the pilot in his unique blue jumpsuit.The play features and accessibility of the set are a nice touch- the landing gear can be lowered and lifted at will, and the rear of the pelican can be opened up to give children plenty of room to play in- the whole thing can be opened up.As for sturdiness- the entire thing comes together rather well. There are a few pieces that are prone to coming loose, but overall, the dropship doesn't feel like it'll come apart.Overall, I'd definitely recommend this to collectors, though I'd advise against getting it for young children as it'll just end up in pieces.

Intresting
Alright it's a nice piece id say it is a little smaller than i intisipated but very nice it doesnt have that naustalga factor from preveos builds whitch is very and i mean VERY INPORTANT TO ME there was some pieces and all but one figure missing the pilot and they dident do anything about it which was disapointing.

Repetitive build, but the end result is worth it
I bought the Pelican in a sale, I knew it was going to be big, but when I finished building it was far larger than I could have imagined. I will stress that building this set can feel like a chore at times, there are a lot of steps involving stacking tile pieces rather than using regular "brick" pieces, but the end result is a great pelican that can fold out into a base/playset-type thing. If the set is ever on sale again, I might buy a second for the alternate build, which looks pretty cool.

Where are the pieces man
This set is great. Good value for money. But wth. 6 pieces. 6 pieces missing in a £132 or something set like…. Why? When it’s that much I expect more all the pieces I need. It is a good set to purchase tho. I do recommend it.

Great set for the price
I got this product on offer for £80 but I would have gladly paid full price because I believe the set is worth it.The item was larger than expected, has good play features and makes for a great display.My son thoroughly enjoyed building it.

An awsome set!
I love this set, the building of the vehicle was very fun, took me a while to build but the final build is great. The figures are great the hunter especially, although it's always nice to get a pair of hunters I'm fine with just the one hunter. Always nice to get another chief and the pilot is a great addition!

Great set for building
This set is a great build and is amazing for both playing with and for the people who'd like to display it. It's got alot of features and the figures are amazing.
