REVIEW: 75319 The Armorer’s Mandalorian Forge

[Pchan1983]

Here is my review on the retired set 75319 The Armorer’s Mandalorian Forge:

THE GOOD:

• Exclusive minifigs to this set and Paz Vizsla is a great minifig.
• Given its size, the details are quite nice and building experience is interesting enough.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

• Hard to apply stickers.
• For some, it may be lacking some action features compare to similar sets.

Finally, opened this and I'm glad I bought this when it first released.  The after market price has been climbing steeply because of the popularity increase of the minifigures included.  Anyway back to topic, I like and enjoyed this set.  The details on the forge is great.  Good to get the blue candle flames.  There are less action features compared to other similar sets but some small details on the wall/work shop build.  I like the unprinted helmet, this is a nice touch to be honest.  Some stickers are difficult to apply though. The highlight of this set is no doubt the minifigures, so far this is the only set including The Armorer and Paz Vizsla.  Paz is probably the best minifigure in this set, The Armorer, I wish there is the actual neck fur piece rather than just printed but I can see it will be difficult to fit the helmet in this case.  Even at original price, it's still a bit high and one could also suggests let's just have the forge + the 3 minifigures to make this set cheaper.  Having said that, this is still a recommended set from me especially if you like the show.  Let's hope the characters reappear in future sets.
