Weekly Set Review: Rebel Chariot
Hey guys!
I really like this set, bought it a few years back to my self for my birthday
I think this is a good set. Appart from some of the other of you I enjoy the design of the chariot very much, sure it's a little bulky but I think it looks great and powerfull, as for the figs, there faces are useless and looks way to evil to use for other people, maybe.
The chrome-shield I like, if I could only find a propper use for it, do'nt feel like it goes together with this evil robbers.
Play Well! Thats the motto!

Cheap parts, a chrome shield and one of the ugliest designs ever. Never appeared in a catalgue(?) and that's good for.
Well ... I dislike it. The part selestion is dumb, ever tried to build something different? I prefer quality models rather than extraordinary chrome thingies.
2/10

When in doubt empty the magazine.
Never share a foxhole with someone braver then you are.
If you're short of everything except the enemy, you're in combat.
Don't look conspicuous, it draws fire.

The set was great for figs, but not really anything special from the cart standpoint. Still, it was probably the best of the Bulls sets.
Not really.
I think Bull siege weapons is better
But good sourse of weapons .

You know you're a good person when you see megablocks and have to do things you would rather not.

I really like the horse, shield, torsos, weapons, helms, and wheels. A great price for all those things though.

I never liked the Bulls color scheme, the green looks nasty along with black and red, and the chrome shield has no sense of belonging in this set, period. The design is absolutely horrible, but the crossbows are useful.

They tried to find a new use for the X-wing gun pieces. They failed. The chariot doesn't look anything like a chariot. It looks like a chest on wheels with a guy on it. The figs aren't bad, and the weapons aren't either. Overall, a 5/10. It's a set with semi-decent pieces that just didn't work as a set.

A set which is cheap and a great value for money, IMHO. A lot of useful parts- a horse, 2 Bull soldiers, weapons,etc. Great for army builders. I bought a few sets of these. TLC should release more small sets like these instead of big sets with low quantity of parts and minifigs. I give it a rating 6.5/ 10.

Besides the fact that the chariot looks like it's made from stone, and would probably need 3 or 4 horses to pull it, the set is pretty good.

Alas that these times should be mine... back when this set came out, I was young and stupid... Can you BELIEVE that I only bought one of each set! Nowadays if I saw this set I'd buy every last one. Well, it has two figures, wheels, a horse, tons of weapons... Heck, that would be a godsend for me now, as I'm down to scrapping with stickers and aquanauts heads with cheap helmets for my armies... Ok, my marks... back then, 6/10, now at least 8/10.

Firelight dancing off burnished blade
A Forestman sits
Wondering about the next day
But after three mugs of ale
Let it bring what it may.
