7962: Anakin's & Sebulba's Podracers (June 2011)

08/02/2011 - 09:23 Lego news
7962Here is a set which is worth its weight in gold.
Not so much by the two podracers which are after all not very innovative, even if they are well made, as by the minifigs delivered: a very beautiful, brand new, detailed and faithful Watto, a finally resembling Sebulba, and a classic but successful Wald. 
Anakin and Obi-Wan are very classic with a special mention for Anakin's helmet.
Sebulba's podracer is likable, although some cry sacrilege due to the use of meta-pieces from Power Miners sets.
Anakin's is very close to the one seen in the set 7131 (Anakin's Podracer) or the set 7171 (Mos Espa Podrace).
Note that podracers finally use Trans-Clear connecting pieces instead of the unrealistic classic Tan.
