"The Display Team Jet earns its Highly Recommended BrickScore of 82.9 as a compact Technic overachiever: a clever single-knob landing gear mechanism, impressive wingspan for the piece count, and 100% owner recommendation make it one of the most satisfying small sets from the 2015 Technic lineup."
The Display Team Jet (42044) is regarded by both expert reviewers as a remarkable small Technic set that punches well above its 113-piece count and $12.99 price. Brickset called it one of the most unexpected delights of the winter 2015 Technic range, while JANG praised the smooth landing gear mechanism and clever tail geometry. Owner sentiment is equally strong: 173 ratings average 4.6 out of 5 across Amazon, Walmart, and LEGO.com, with 100% of LEGO.com owners recommending it and a value-for-money signal of 4.7 out of 5.
