Horrible Design
on June 3, 2023
Posted by: SenseiWittyBoots
This is the first set I've ever just flat out quit building. As many have mentioned, the side plates are held on just by a few studs and fall off with even the slightest nudge. Putting the nose on is an exercise in futility, and after a chunk of the front part of the set fell apart while trying to put it on, I just gave up on it and will move on to another set. I just hope this isn't indicative of where Lego designs are going.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice but very touchy

I consider myself an advanced builder having done the globe, the Lamborghini, the grand piano among other Lego models. I found this one to be the most frustrating. I’m only halfway through, and I’ve had to resort to glue to hold some of the pieces together. As noted in other reviews, the side pieces tend to fall off due to weak or minimal connecting points. At one point I tore the model apart and started all over again just to make sure that I had put it together correctly. Unfortunately I had, and the weak connecting points simply require glue in order to stay on. I would not recommend this product to anyone other than an advanced builder, who is willing to resort to glue in order to complete it.

Awful Stability
on July 17, 2023
Posted by: Fuzzy
I have been building and rebuilding for a week! I recently had surgery and figured this would be an awesome way to pass the time. Instructions are really good for someone that knows how to build these. But not a lot of specifics as to where bricks go. The forward fuselage is awful falls apart if you look at it wrong. I have attempted to hold the model to mount the wings…. The side panels fall off front and back, the engine front falls off etc. Do NOT hold the model for too long or it will fall apart. I have several of the cars and those are pretty solid this thing is an engineering joke! And I work in engineering for a defense company. There is not enough support on most of the connections. Please don’t purchase this product it is not worth the money or frustration and time!

STAY ON TARGET!

Don't get me wrong, this set looks phenomenal on display. The accuracy and attention to detail is what I've come to expect from the Star Wars UCS series. Unfortunately, the building techniques were a little sub-par. You probably won't encounter any issues until you start attaching the wings. The side panels that make up the body of the X-Wing are VERY loosely attached and will come apart if too much pressure is applied. If that happens while your wings are on.... sorry my dude, you're in for a headache.

Love it!

Having missed the previous UCS versions of the X-Wing I was excited when I heard about this set. It's was a fun build and is a wonderful display piece. I have had none of the problems other report about pieces falling off as I realize this is not a play set.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Somewhat of a let down
on August 3, 2023
Posted by: Jim80181
So somewhat of a new builder huge Star Wars fan. Began with the Star Wars helmets and enjoyed them. Had built the smaller X Wing and liked the looks of this one. Somewhat pricy though, but again liked the look of this one and wanted a bigger challenge.
First this thing is massive, much larger than thought would be. Build was straight forward, although could use better direction for some steps. As some have said the stand is not that stable and for the price would’ve thought would have been better. Some of the side panels while doing other parts would pop off, needs better support.
No missing pieces which is nice, looks good but be sure have the space to display it!

Panels, stand have flaws, can be frustrating but..
on August 5, 2023
Posted by: AMARSH1025
Look, I still loved the way this build turned out. But as other reviews mentioned the side panels on front body are not constructed to be held in place with much strength. The stand has 2 pieces that pop off if not glued due to the weight of the actual x-wing. Besides that it actually looks great and if you are not a Star Wars snob, or this is your first X-wing build you should love the final look. Made strictly for display in my opinion
