Fantastic

Posted by: HeroicBuilder084
This is my favorite UCS set since the UCS Star Destroyer. great build, looks fantastic. My only complaint would be R2. They should have used the same piece from the 2010 Obi Wan Starfighter set.
I would recommend this to a friend!

If you like it, buy it

I understand some people may have differing views on this and other sets. But in my eyes, if you like something go for it. I loved this set from the announcement, and still do. Looks great on display and I enjoyed the build.
Only gripe I have is when the wings are in the flat position, if you are holding the model the wings tend to “sag” creating a space between them

Good for size and experience
on May 6, 2023

Very good but many components like the stand are out dated and flimsy. The panels are very high in detail but fall off easily. Biggest problem is how the tip of the xwing is white instead of gray(Its litteraly gray in the preview photos in the booklet), and also how they edited the mold mark off the plaque.

Solid Collector's Piece - Below Average Build
on May 6, 2023
Posted by: ChocoboGuy
As a collector's piece it's great. It's the freaking X-Wing! And its the most detailed one that LEGO has ever put out. As something to put on your shelf to look at and show off, its fantastic.
That being said, it wasn't fun to build because it's incredibly repetitive (the 4 wings are nearly identical). Also the wing mechanism is flimsy at best. This is not a set you want to play with. It's for looking at.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Enjoyable experience. Great display

For me, this set could’ve easily been a five but there were 2 exceptions.
I’ll start off by saying I own the last UCS X-wing and I really enjoyed the improvements and the change in design. It looks amazing as a display piece. The build was a bit tricky on a few steps but overall it was not that challenging. I have definitely built much more difficult sets. I LOVE THE NEWLY PRINTED UCS PLAQUE! Wish they started doing this years ago. Great addition.
Where this set falls short of the 5 rating is the R2-D2 size and the cockpit windshield being loose/unprotected in the box.
The R2 minifig doesn’t look terrible in his droid compartment but it would’ve looked significantly better if there was a larger fig or a printed dome used as his head to represent a more accurate sized droid.
The cockpit windshield…. This has been an issue for me with several sets over the years. It’s loose in box and leaves a lot of room for damage scuffing. Unfortunately I ordered my set online so it had to travel a long ways. I believe this caused some of the damage. There are several scuffs/scratches all over the clear parts of the piece as well as one rather unsightly scratch to the printing.

Overall, I loved this set and do not regret my purchase at all. I mainly just wish my windshield wasn’t damaged.

Such a let down
on May 6, 2023
Posted by: TangySkinnet015
The first thing I see when I open this set is a loose windscreen. The windscreen was unfortunately super damaged and bent. Cockpit pieces need to be protected lego!! Secondly the build wasn’t enjoyable at all, it felt like I was building a x wing from 10 years ago. The nose of the ship is inaccurate with the color and size being wrong. There’s also tons of gaps in the model. Besides the fact of the model being inaccurate, I’m more displeased with the quality control. Please Do better Lego!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Stop crying

This set is EXACTLY what it's made to be. Stop your crying about the price. People want legit reviews, not someone crying. Don't like it? Don't buy it! The set is fine. I enjoyed building it and it sits right next to my xwing micro, xwing polybag, and xwing play size. It's exactly what they wanted it to be. Go buy knockoff bricks and build your own MOC'S!

The x-wing has returned!!
on May 4, 2023
Posted by: Anonymous
I was excited to know the X-Wing has returned! I feel it pays homage to the original ultimate collectors x-wing. Hopefully Lego brings out collectors series of Slave 1 and Darth Vader's tie-fighter 🤞
