Thanks to your review and pictures Big Cam I now changed some of the colors I got wrong - hadn't been aware of the silver stud for example. It’s significantly out of scale though which throws off the look of the model – I’d have preferred if the designers included a printed 3×3 dome instead. Luke is a brand new minifigure and is the definitive version of Luke in his orange pilot suit so far, featuring detailed arm prints and dual-moulded legs! The back of the box has the model in landed mode on its display stand, along with mini graphics showing the features and comparison images.

Until LEGO decides to make a 1xn plate with clips on both sides, I think we’ll be stuck with this dilemma for awhile. On the other hand, my biggest issue with the model is how it feels, whether you’re picking it up to admire it or simply to relocate it to another spot. The designer Jerac has refined this model with a more accurate design, stronger than before, and avoids overly rare parts. As a town/CITY collector this set gives me easy access to parts and color that I dont usually have or can't easily acquire.BrickEconomy, the BrickEconomy logo and all content not covered by The LEGO Group's copyright is, unless otherwise stated, ©2024 BrickEconomy. This model features gear-operated folding wings, opening cockpit with space for one pilot, space for an astromech droid, and a stand for display.

Starting at the back, the trans-orange 1×1 round plates for the engine glow should have been trans-pink. This is going to be an odd review because I’m just going to point all the things I didn’t like or could have been better but still give this a thumbs up.I picked up the last three at my areas Target, and after opening up one of them and putting it together, I realized I can finally live my life's dream of putting it together in the bag. Build: 8/10 I ranked this an 8 due to the ease of building, the pose ability, and the sturdiness of the model, it doesn't break easily. Keepability [4] – It’s an X-wing – one of the most iconic Star Wars ships – so even with its small problems, makes it a very collectable set. The flick-fire pieces, cheese slopes, and hinges all help make the set sturdier, and the color scheme is great.

While they lack the size and intricacy of larger sets, they capture the essence and key features of the original designs using a minimal number of pieces.

This build is a mini-scale model of the 16:1 scale X-Wing Fighter constructed during the same event. As for the nose itself, it gets a new redesign which is more rectangular than its predecessors, with some curved slopes on the side. That said, with Double VIP Points and a slew of LEGO Gifts with Purchase (GWPs) for May the 4th, it definitely feels like the appropriate time to pick the UCS X-Wing up if you don’t own the older version, and want to add the latest and greatest into your Ultimate Collectors Series collection. It's a mini and should be reviewed as one, of course you aren't getting any minifig's, and the piece count is going to be low.
