The ship itself is just another version of the Jedi Starfighter from the Clone Wars. It is pretty much the same as the ones we got in the Anakin, and Plo Koon sets above. The only difference being the coloration, I would still very much get this set for the simplest reason of being a collector. Our last choice will be another depiction of Anakin Skywalker and his Jedi Starfighter. The main protagonist from the Prequel Trilogy has appeared in more sets than any other main character. This recent set from 2018 is, in fact, a remade version of the 2008 Anakin’s Jedi Starfighter. I can say this directly – this set was too overpriced for me to own personally. A friend of mine let me build it and that was it. Jedi Starfighter sets have always been among the cheaper sets in the LEGO Star Wars theme. Whoever decided that they should do a remake on the 2007 version of this and double the price, was terribly wrong.

Jedi Master Plo Koon, leader of a Clone Army task force, scours the space lanes for General Grievous new superweapon, Malevolence, as seen in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. If the mission proves too dangerous, Plo Koon can eject from his starfighter and live to fight the Separatists another day! However, compared to the older version of Anakin’s Interceptor, this one had a much more smooth build. Anakin’s minifigure had a few minor changes like the belt printing and the additional face expression which you can change to by simply turning the head. Jedi Master Plo Koon, leader of a Clone Army task force, scours the space lanes for General Grievous’ new superweapon, Malevolence, as seen in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. If the mission proves too dangerous, Plo Koon can eject from his starfighter and live to fight the Separatists another day! To sum up, I believe every Clone Wars addict or collector should have this set. I can see myself spending the little fortune someday but for now, I will satisfy myself with the remake version from 2018.As with every UCS set, you shouldn’t be expecting much in terms of playability – these are LEGO sets designed for adults after all. However, I can easily say that it is a lot more sturdy than most of the older UCS sets. LEGO Star Wars Jedi Starfighter sets do not always get the recognition they deserve. Actually, it seems that the tides have turned this way in the most recent years. Quite commonly, we witness a continuous increase in retail prices while at the same time the newer sets often seem unfinished. If the minifigures were not enough, the overall design of this Jedi Starfighter was brand new in 2012 compared to the older ones I already went through. In addition, this one felt a lot more sturdy in comparison. If we were in 2007, I would recommend getting this set on the spot only and exactly because of the minifigures. All three – Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Nute Gunray were remade for this set. In fact, Nute Gunray was remade so that he matches his Episode III look. However, the figure has one flaw – the torso and legs do not match perfectly.

Earlier during the Clone Wars, Plo Koon was gifted a Delta-7B that was named the Blade of Dorin. [2] This ship was marked with the same color scheme and design as Skywalker's Azure Angel. It is unknown why he switched from the Blade of Dorin to a standard Delta-7 starfighter.

is a really nice set. It represents the 'real' thing well, and it's a nice cheap way to get Plo Koon (and a beautiful new astro droid to boot! ). Now let's go onto the scores, shall we?

When this set came out, I and the Star Wars fans around me felt like LEGO was running out of ideas. After all, we literally got the same Interceptor in a different color for like four consecutive years. At least, they could have made some minor changes in the build. Here's the build after step seven. Those hinge pieces are for holding on the landing gear and wings of the ship. It's not much yet, but don't worry, it gets better.Furthermore on my last sentence on the previous set, set 7256 Jedi Starfighter & Vulture Droid is one of those separate sets that were released in 2005. To sum up, this is Anakin’s fighter from the opening battle of Coruscant in Episode III. It’s another Jedi Interceptor” was what everyone thought when they announced this set over five years ago. I felt the same way too and was not expecting much. It is almost entirely identical to the 9498 Saesee Tiin’s Jedi Starfighter I discussed a minute ago if you switch the green to yellow and add a few pieces. This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items. Overall, this has to be the first set on our list that actually has some playability features provided by the booster ring. To be fair, this is a set I would totally spend a fortune on today as well.

Although the overall worth of the newer Starfighter sets decreases based on price per piece count and size, I have always believed them to be an amazing addition to any collection. After all, is there anyone that does not love the Jedi? If you are a fan of Jedi Starfighters like me, I recommend getting this set to complete your collection.This is a set that is perfect for playability enthusiasts. You get a great selection of interesting droids with their respective vehicles, and a nice Starfighter.
