Initial Impressions:
The Galaxy ZEGA comes in a well designed packaging that has a premium quality look and feel. The outer part of the main box contains all the basic information and features, including the list of package contents and other product specifics.
The instruction manual provides users clear and easy to understand instructions on how to setup and operate the Galaxy ZEGA. It also shows how to build the 4 different types of classic battlefields.
We received this unit last week and my eldest son has been very excited to try it out. Unfortunately, due to the busy schedule we haven’t gotten the chance to set it up and play with it. We plan to do it this weekend and I’m sure that my son won’t be the only one having fun playing with these cool, high-tech toys. I’ll update this post after we get to test and take it out for a spin.
