Should you buy the iconic Klingon warship?
The back of the Playmobil Klingon Bird of Prey box.
Yes, it's true this kit has a kid-focused design and lots of play-worthy figurines, and is quite expensive for a toy. We found in our play test, however, that the Bird of Prey vessel itself is a little too large to be played with properly, at least in a child's hands, making this one mostly for collectors.
And if you're shopping for the Playmobil Bird of Prey to begin with, you're likely a diehard Trekkie and a collector already. If you're in this group, you're likely used to paying similar prices for such impressive and highly detailed models, and $300 is perfectly worth it for the amount of care that went into this set.
There are so many hidden details and touches to spark your nostalgia for the original Trek films, and the lights and sounds will make you swear you can smell Commander Kluge's breath as he barks orders in your face on the bridge of the Klingon vessel. At $300, the asking price is a little on the high side, but the attention to detail and obvious love of all things Trek that went into this set make the Playmobil Klingon Bird of Prey a must-buy for any Trekkie collector.
