\nThe graphics on the box are nice as always.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>The following shows the contents of the big bag in the upper left of the preceding pic.

\nAll the pieces sorted out.

\nAnd now on with the easy build.
\n\"UNSC<\/a>
\n\"UNSC<\/a>
\nThis really is such a simple build. The only thing to watch out for is dropping some of those little parts and having the roll away under furniture.
\n\"UNSC<\/a>
\nThe Cryo Tube takes shape above. This cryo tube is essentially the same as the one in the Forward unto Dawn set. Though we add a hinge piece to this one (seen at far right above).
\n\"UNSC<\/a>
\nIt’s a simple hinge design that is hidden for the most part in the final build.
\n\"UNSC<\/a>
\nSo there it is. Nice and compact. The only thing i would have changed with this set is the baseplate. I do like that it is black. However, it’s strange shape doesn’t make it easy to connect additional cryo tube sets easily without having raised and lower portions as well as angles sticking out. That’s fairly minor though as I see this as mostly a one-purchase buy and not a multi purchase.
\n\"UNSC<\/a>
\nAbove are the few extra pieces and below is the set with those pieces added and a slight reconfiguration. (Sorry it’s a bit fuzzy of a pic)

Summary:\u00a0<\/strong>The set is quick to build and can be displayed nearly anywhere. It’s an inexpensive alternative to getting the cryo bay if you don’t want to get the full Forward unto Dawn set.<\/p>\n

Overall Rating:<\/strong>\u00a0I give this set 9 out of 10 medals. For the price, you’re getting a nice set. I’d say the micro Cortana is the gem piece in this set. I definitely recommend getting it.<\/p>\n
