KRE-O Star Trek Klingon Starfleet Attack Review
The Klingon Starfleet Attack Set is exclusive to Toys “R” Us and their toy dealers. It is a game of two in one. You get two ships and 8 crowns. They have great facial features and you can tell who they are just by looking at them.
They are recommended for children ages 9-14, but they are fairly easy for adults to build as well.
The crowns are Kirk, Spock, Dr. McCoy or Bones, Sulu, Chekov, and 3 Klingons. Kirk, Spock, Sulu, and Chekov each have their own little chrome phasers, McCoy has a medical tri-cor. Two of the Klingons have a disruptor cannon and the third has a Bat’leth. A Klingon looks like an admiral as he wears a different uniform.
The picture on the box looks like the two ships are in the Kobayashi Maru simulator. I think it really looks cool.
Klingon ships come with approximately 285 building blocks and are not as complex as the USS Enterprise. The gull wing shape of the Klingon D-7 Battle Cruiser is excellent and it has an illuminated photon torpedo launcher.
You get battle damage decals to go on your ship, but I wouldn’t put them on the Klingon ship, the decals have a white background and stand out.
The D-7 wing stickers look nice. Together with the sticker, you get a flashlight battery for the lighting function.
The instruction booklet has a step-by-step photo guide. This helps a lot if you are building for the first time. There are 75 steps to follow. A few steps than the USS Enterprise, but like I said it’s not that complex.
My only problem with the Klingon ship is that the landing gear is too short. This has the wings on the surface. You may not mind this, but if you do, I suggest that you put an additional block of the same size in there. It had black blocks so I used them. The wings are now as they should be (for me).
In the front you can put two Klingons, in the back you can put the other. At the wingtips, each wing has a missile with a push button to launch the missiles. Don’t shoot far but kids will like it.
The USS Enterprise has a flap on the bridge that comes off. It is hinged, so it is removed immediately. Inside you have the captain’s chair, a screen that moves up and down so you can close it, the console, the navigation chair and more.
He can place all the Starfleet crowns that come with him, there. It really has a lot of details on the bridge. The nacelles have a hinged lid, inside there are parts of the engine that can be seen.
It has lighting functions and requires 3 batteries that are not included. It looks amazing in the dark with the lights on. It has 432 building blocks. You get 4 photon missiles, which can be launched and travel a little further than Klingon D-7 missiles.
You can put the battle damage stickers on the USS as it is white and looks cool. Heard they are releasing the set with translucent stickers.
This set is great as a starter kit and if you don’t have the USS Enterprise I suggest you get it. Figures with the USS Enterprise have only Kirk, Spock, and Dr. McCoy and two specialists. With this set you get Chekov and Sulu with 3 extra Klingons.
