7879 Hoth Echo Base: First review at Imperium der Steine

Always at the forefront, Imperium der Steine ​​gives us the first review of this set 7879 Hoth Echo Base.
We discover close-ups of the different minifigs, including two faces for Luke and Leia.
Han Solo comes in Hoth outfit with a new hood and classic hair. The 2-1B medical droid is well made, and proves to be as unstable as that provided in previous sets.
Red R-3PO is a recolored C-3PO model.

The review author regrets that LEGO tried to replicate many of the Hoth base spaces in such a compact set, forgetting many details and damaging the overall credibility of the set.
We also regret the absence of one or two rebel soldiers in order to balance the forces present and improve the gameplay. On the shape, the bags are numbered, the instructions separated into two booklets, and the sheet of stickers seems to benefit from a more effective glue than that of the stickers of the sets 7965 Millennium Falcon et 7962 Anakin's and Sebulba's Podracers for which the author encountered adhesion problems.
