This is my first minifig-scale OT X-Wing since 4502 (if one doesn't count the Microfighter ), and my fourth over all (I also own 7140 and one ST X-Wing, 75149 ), I very much enjoyed building this set, and once built, I found it to be very swooshable. It has what is easily my favourite wing-opening mechanism of the four I own, which is why I titled this review as I did. I was a little surprised that it didn't have a s…

Got the first one not long after it released and really enjoyed the build. The rather complex Technic build for the wing opening mechanism was interesting but when it all came together was far easier to operate than some mechanisms on previous X-Wings, no elastic bands or twisting pieces here. Two spring-loaded missiles and no stud shooters so less chance of firing off (accidentally or on purpose) and losing small st…

It is fun to build and contains a very clever and neat technic based X-wing mechanism which uses gravity rather than rubber bands and which is extra fun to build and reason about how it works! It looks spectacular from most angles and is very swooshable. A few minus points: I'm not a fan of the launchers and feel they can be omitted from the build. The springs rattle which is a little annoying. The way the rear of th…

Great set though it can get hard at some points to build but amazing if your looking for a good X-wing this is the one though can get hard. easy to play around with and the best part of this set that MAKES it worth while is that it comes with the CHOSEN one Dodonna Lol thought my biggest problem is R-2-D-2 he does not go in all the way and you cant put the landing Gear up which is kinda bother some and the front land…

For around 50€ you can get a nice ship, 3 good minifigs and also a good time building the X-wing. I spent around 2 hours building this set. I think the price is fair and the new technic that they used for the wings mechanic are pretty creative and interesting to build. Overall, a decent set.

I grew up with Kenner Star Wars toys in the late 70's and early 80's and would have loved this Lego X-Wing set. Lego's Star Wars line in 1999 is what got me back into Lego! My three boys grew up with the Star Wars prequels in the early 2000's and were lucky enough to have a mix of Lego Star Wars and Hasbro Star Wars toys. We've had a number of Lego X-Wing sets in the ensuing years and this is probably tied for the be…
