Original Review:
This was a "no-brainer" for me. Although Lego.com still offers this set; I bought it from Amazon ($99) to get free shipping & no tax, saving me close to $30. Amazon packed the set well. The shuttle, EFT (external fuel tank), and SRBs (solid rocket booster) look great. The four pieces fit well together and sit nicely on the little launch pad. Being 30 I bought this set for myself in hopes that It would ignite my 5yr old's interest in the shuttle program which is about to end thanks to our "Fearless Leader". My 5yr old son built the EFT & SRBs mostly by himself. Playability is leaving me a little disappointed for a $99 Lego set. I built the shuttle which needed some modification to the rear landing gear: I turned the rear wheels around and moved the rear spring down one hole to make the shuttle roll better without the wheels collapsing. The shuttle has to be handled very deliberately otherwise parts will break free and you will have to halfway disassemble the rear of the shuttle. My son gets frustrated after about 30 minutes of the shuttle continually needing reassembly, but he is only 5 and Lego recommends 16+ (I can see why). Two Astronauts fit in the cockpit with their arms in the perfect position. The satellite barely fits in the cargo bay and I had to modify it's antenna connection. Also the EFT likes to fall apart unless you almost use two hands to pick it up (it likes to break in half under it's own weight). Great set for adults and Lego crazy kids 10 & up. Not easily playable though. Also for $99, Lego should have included a better launch pad with a tower.
GET THIS ONE WHILE YOU STILL CAN, I fear this will be the last USA Space Shuttle Lego gives us.
well, the original took me three days as i get frustrated by lego and their instruction books, so when i got upset i went and did something else.
this is a cool set and a lot fun. the cargo doors work as does the landing gear. it will be fun to put it all together again
2/27/11 UPDATE
Ok, i am done with the new space shuttle. it is considerable SMALLER the the shuttle discovery set. It seems n parts, rushed together. the tail isn't as great as the Discovery the cargo doors and arm aren't GREAT. the cargo bay itself has some of the landing gear set up visible. the cockpit on the shuttle adventure is a piece of work. it doesn't stay together well. the rest is fun and great to look at as a modle, this was truely a fun set to put together
My biggest gripe about this set is the blocky nose and windshield of the orbiter. I realize it's difficult to create smooth looking curved shapes with Legos (I've tried numerous times over the years!), but if you scour the Internet, especially MOC pages, you'll see countless examples of people who've figured out much smoother looking aircraft nose sections at various scales. I think the designers over at Lego could've borrowed some of these ideas to incorporate into this model. Also, I realize designing to true scale would've started to become a challenge, especially for the ET, but it would've been nice to see the whole thing to an accurate scale.
Once it's built and put together, the orbiter is a pretty solid piece and can be handled easily. The combination of the orbiter, ET and SRBs, however, is not quite so sturdy, considering they're all held together with a handful of friction pegs. Still, the fact that you can fairly accurately recreate a Space Shuttle launch makes this set really cool!

There are a LOT of pieces, but the instructions are crystal clear and, so long as you take your time and are careful, it really is a pleasure to build this shuttle. Overall it took three full days of building, no doubt slowed significantly by working with such a young age. However, it never felt like a drag or anything other than fun. Once built my son has played with it continually, and the worst he has managed is to pop off the tailpiece, which is simple enough to put back in place.
We flew to the West Coast of Canada a few days ago, the assembled shuttle carefully put into a suitcase. When we opened the case at our destination, only the tail and two boosters had come adrift, and were reinstalled in seconds. That's a good a pretty good indicator of how robust this set is.
dans la veine des autres produits rares lego;pas de difficulté de montage
le bras articulé avec le satellite un peu fragile
les pilotes un peu difficiles à mettre en cabine
système train d'atterrissage très bien étudié
temps de montage:prevoir bien cinq heures,plus long qu'il n'y parait
un bel objet au final;peut etre un peu fragile!
内容は、部品の大きさ毎に小分けされていたので、
いつものように全ての部品を混ぜないように円形に置き、
その中心で息子が部品を探すというようにやりました。
5歳の子供でも一人で集中して6時間半ほどで作れたので、
組み立て自体はそれ程難しいという感じではなかったです。
小さい部品をつけ間違えると後から外すのが大変でした。。。
重量もあるので小さい子だと持ち上げて遊ぶのに苦労しますが、
細かなディテールまで凝っていて、大人も一緒にはまってしまいます。
一番好きなのはタイヤの出し入れがスムーズに出来てバネでしっかり止まるところ、
燃料タンクとブースターロケットを取り外して遊べるところでしょうか。
ちょっと簡単に外れやすいので、子供には丁寧に扱うように言ってます。
ソーラーパネルとアンテナの収納は少し練習が必要です。
ソーラーパネルの向きを固定できたら最高でした。
大人も子供もすごく楽しめる作品だと思います。
自分用にもうひとつ欲しいくらい!!
