When the first Wampa set came out into stores I was rather dissapointed, the Wampa didn't look like a Wampa. It was not designed very well and LEGO could have done a better job, then this pack came into stores. It had everything that it needed and more, the Wampa was a lot more accurate. The cave was identical to the set off the actual movie, STAR WARS 5 THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK and it came with a skeleton minifgure ( which I have never seen or owned before ). It included a detailed Snow Speeder with the Rebel pilot Zev Senesca mini figure, a Wampa mini figure ( that was awesome ) a Luke Skywalker mini figure and skeleton mini figure. It was like the actual movie scene only you can build it! Fantastic!

I won't add much to what has already been written, the set is very well designed and the figures are excellent.
I got mine at about 25% off which seemed a fair price. At full price it would be a bit too expensive.
The kit only takes about 30 mins to make and has only a couple of fiddly bits.
The snowspeeder is approx 18cm long and 14cm wide, with the cave being about the same long and 10cm high
It contains just under 300 pieces and some of them are quite unique, this is how I work out if it was worth it. If the pieces can be reused for other projects then it adds to the value, some of the kits out there have one design in mind and this is where I think lego goes wrong sometimes.
In the end the child should be able to use their imagination to rebuild or redesign the bits of lego they get into something else.
Hope this helps

Sometimes, Lego sets come along and you think "Wow - compared to other sets this is a great price". The Hoth Wompa Cave is one of those (LEGO®Star Wars TM 7929 : The Battle of Naboo (TM) is another). It comes with the cave, a great vehicle, three minifigs and the Wampa and as such there is a complete play scene for young imaginations.
The build is a little fiddly with the cave and the speeder, but with a bit of parental help my six year old got on OK. He already has a few Hoth items, so was really happy to add this to his collection. Interestingly, the skeleton is sued frequently in his play to attack Luke and help the Wampa, so his imagination has incorporated what was probably a thing designed to be decorative in an active part of the play.
The modules are generally sturdy, although he finds it a little fiddly to get Luke hanging upside down.
I would recommend this as a great starter set for any child who wants to get into Star Wars Lego as you get a lot of value for your money, both in terms of vehicle and figures, and also in the play and adventures that can be had. Obviously, if Hoth stuff if is owned already this is a must set to have!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Lego star wars wampa cave
This was a Christmas gift to an 8-year-old boy and he loved it. He began assembling it the second he opened the box; he's a big fan of Legos and the Star Wars series in particular.
