User Reviews for Star Trek - Enterprise Bridge Playset w/figure
Better than I was led to believe
I read some of the other reviews of this product and though they were mostly negative the problems discussed did not sound insurmountable. When I opened it up, I was pleasantly surprised. The play mat is very thin plastic but it lay mostly flat the first time. As I opened the other pieces I laid several volumes of my encyclopedia of philosophy on it to further flatten it. It could not have taken me more than 10 minutes to open and assemble the other bridge pieces and two figures we\'d bought to go with it. When I removed the books at that time, the play mat was almost entirely flat.
We had no difficulty placing the other pieces on the bridge, or making figures stand in various locations.
My son, who is 5, loves it. He has uttered no complaints. I sat and played with him twice yesterday, and I have to say that in my opinion it\'s a very nice toy. It is true that you do not get a complete bridge, but you know that going in, if you can read. It says so on the box. It also says the bridge is a play mat. Now while a 5-year-old can be a bit clumsy when there are a lot of pieces in the way of his figures, at least they fall over rather than break. And a fallen console can be easily replaced. And let\'s be honest, what kid does not like a fight out battles and destroy things? They do it in the movies, after all.
The main view screen is a thing of beauty. A big image of the Romulan vessel fills it and when it is backlit (we have it facing the patio door) it\'s very realistic. There are two data screens as well and they also have nice graphics on them. The captain\'s \"center seat\" and the helm and navigation stations are nicely detailed and helps hold down the center of the mat and any ridges from its folding. The Kirk figure sits reasonably snugly in his seat or can sit in for Sulu, and I had no problem making his right hand grab the control in front of him.
I look forward to seeing the rest of the pieces produced, and crew members, for a fully equipped and manned bridge. I recommend this toy. For an adult, a lovely diorama could be made, but kids, if they\'re anything like mine, will love playing with it, destroying it, and setting it up again.
Not the best, but pretty ok.
I have read the other reviews on this product and I must agree with the fact that the plastic mat is cheap and mildly disappointing. However the box it comes in says \"playmat\" so you have a forewarning. One review states that the chairs do not fit properly into their base. The particular one that I purchased just yesterday all fit perfectly and the swivel action works as well. I figure the problem lies in the fact that if you read in fine print on the package, as well as the Galaxy figure collection, it states \"prototypes shown, final product appearance and colors may vary\". Unfortunately it sounds like someone may have purchased one hot off the line and all the bugs hadn\'t been ironed out yet. Speaking of ironing, the mat itself is rolled up and takes a bit of pressing, mine had been sitting under a heavy fixture for about 12 hours and other than the crease in the middle it lays flat. I happen to be a big kid and avid collector of things, and most of these things I generally display. I simply took a heavy black poster board and laid the mat on it, and intend to get a piece of clear plastic like Plexiglas to lay over the mat. The figure that it comes with is basically pointless as you have to buy the same figure in an individual pack to get the accessories which compliment the overall appearance of the Bridge. My biggest concern at this point is that as the reviews stated, you need 18 figures. So far I have collected all 10, and 3 of which have pieces that go to the Transporter Room, which requires 4 pieces. So this leaves 12 pieces all together for both rooms that to date have not been produced to my knowledge... they better be! Those who are parents might want to think twice before buying these products as it seems that these have been produced and geared more toward collectors like myself. Hopefully with all the movie hype and its\' upcoming nationwide premier next weekend the rest of the products will hit shelves by early summer. All in all this is not the best product, but it\'s still pretty neat, and I\'m sure once I get it completely pressed and break open the figures and start building, the end result will be worth it.
