The original was better
on May 9, 2023
Posted by: CousinAmbitiousSoap
You would think this set having an additional 400 pieces to the last UCS Red 5 X-Wing would be an upgrade. It unfortunately isn’t. This set is beyond flimsy and poorly constructed. The wing operation is comical at best, the sides of the fuselage have atrocious gaps and one small sneeze and it will all crumble apart. Hopefully this set will be retired quickly so others don’t suffer this embarrassment from Lego.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Another Rubber Band X-Wing
on May 11, 2024
Posted by: domino
The build was something I was really looking forward to, I'd waited a long time for another UCS X-Wing to release and waited a few months more after it arrived until we finished moving across the country. Needless to say, I was excited to finally building only to find out that it's wings were held up by the same rubber band system as the smaller sets. It's been 7 months since I built it and put it on my display shelf and now all I see is drooping wings and engines slowly going out alignment because of the amount of weight those bands have supported. There are designs out there to fix it with a sturdier gear system but it's a lot of work if you want to put in the time, but I would not recommend this set. The company should be disappointed in what they put out.

Terrible UCS set
on October 8, 2023
Posted by: Ranow
Sadly, this is probably one of the worst sets I've purchased. The only real good part of the building experience was the wing mechanism, but not the wings themselves. Proportionally, it does seem fairly good, but I'm not really an expert on design. Only visual thing they could've done better would have been the section in front of the canopy. Fell like it should've narrowed up a bit.
And, that brings me to the highly negative part of my review. First, the wings. I'm certain other reviewers have mentioned that there's too much wing droop due to the weight on the ends of the wings, without much in the way of core support. In the open position, you don't notice it as much, but in the closed position, you can clearly see the separation along the wings.
But the main reason for my highly negative review has to be the engineering section covers. In order to achieve the angles required, the lego designer used the hinge bricks with the 2x2 hinge plates. Normally that wouldn't be a huge problem, but for whatever reason, I kept breaking them off. Normally one or two initially, but when trying to fix, ended up breaking most of them off. After several repair attempts, consulting the manual each time to make certain I had in fact built correctly, I gave up and finished the rest of the build.
Sadly, after being on display for a couple months, the shelf it was on was tipped, and the model crashed to the ground. Too much of a pain to try and rebuild.

Absolute garbage
on May 11, 2023
Posted by: Straymutation
This is the single worst UCS set I have ever built. The experience is awful. The set is so unstable that it falls apart with the smallest touch. How this made it by QA is beyond me. Lego needs to fix this set ASAP. Poor quality and poor build.

The best X-Wing Yet
on June 7, 2023
Posted by: JMPeterson40
First off, the nose cone is the correct color. If you have ever watched Star Wars, you will see that it is supposed to be white. The prints on the minifigures are outstanding. Lego finally went all out which I deeply appreciated. The build is an enjoyable one! I enjoyed seeing the advancements Lego has made over the years with its building techniques. You really get your bang for your buck on this one! I loved the printed plack too. It looks so much better than the old sticker plaques which were a nightmare to put on perfectly! I have enjoyed displaying this UCS X-Wing next to my original 2008 6212 X-Wing. Great job Lego!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very Happy
on May 11, 2023
Posted by: ANatale
This is a great set. Too many haters in my opinion. Build was great, the look is fantastic def better then the previous models that are too narrow. Yeah, there are some give and take, but overall, what a fantastic build. And though I will continue to say prices are getting out of hand for Lego. Looking at this set in comparison, it's price isn't bad.
I would recommend this to a friend!
