The original box was put in another box. The product is great. However, I need to point out that the packaging in which it was shipped was probably very good in protecting the box but it cost me alot more money in shipping it back to Singapore (3x more). So, for those who are overseas, may need to discuss how the box should be packed otherwise the volumetic weight will cost you alot.
Really fun to build. Anyone who has Lego's will love putting this one together. Watching it walk when your done with it is really really fun for anyone of all ages.
I give this durability a 4, since it did not walk until I fixed up a few gears. This lego is a great price. It is one of those toys that if you mess up one little piece it messes up the whole. The age one this really matters, I am thirteen and I needed a little help from my dad. It also comjes with neat mini figures- Luke Skywalker, General Veers, ATAT pilot, and a snowtrooper with a rifle. It really walks forward and backward. It also comes with a grappling line to hang Luke. Anyways this is a great buy with many customized features.
We were seeing what turned out to be the motion of the worm gear switching between forward and reverse.This little model is wonderful. He got the legs done within an hour or so and we tried to make the thin walk.and all it did was twitch. I bought this for my husband on Father's Day. It walks in forward and reverse and the head moves back and forth as it walks. At this point I was prepared to call LEGO headquarters and complain at length. I was quite excited to see him put it together. When we tried to move it earlier it was not able to turn the motor so it siezed, but we couldn't tell that because it appeared that everything was turning as much as it could. I can easily see this being modified into other walking robots and it gives a great example of how rotational motion can be transformed into linear motion.
Plus it's kinda cute. He continued to put it together while I moped and fumed about our new non-walking walker. We hadn't hooked up the power yet, but we figured the legs should move without it. Finally he got to the power-pack installation and we turned it on.and IT WALKED. Pew pew
After that he could play with it, because it can move by moter. I bought this toy for my son's 10th birthday. He had builded it for 1 day. It is great toy.
