As the smallest set of summer 2013, I admit i'm surprised. For 171 pieces the crater creeper is decent size and the small (exploriens) hovercraft is quite nice. Now lets get on to it:
The small hovercraft is a nice build and, for its size, it's well armed. 
The pilot is Chuck Stonebraker, who, like all other galaxy squad minifigures, has a double sided head with a breathing apparatus on one side and standard issue uniform on the other, but with green colors this time.

Now to the main piece, the crater creeper. 
First of all, I'm surprised it's that big- bigger than the one on the box art. But other than that, the build sometimes feels unfinished and maybe plain. The claws open and close, but the weapon is kinda hard to put in the holder. It comes with a buggoid which has four eyes and a small like tail at the back of its head.

Overall, a good set, the build on the creeper seems a little uncovered but I would suggest you buy it after some other summer 2013 sets, like the galactic titan, or the hive crawler, or the eradicator mech.
But on the whole a nice set.
