Extremely fragile,
on August 19, 2024
Posted by: Thewongsrx
If you buy this, be aware this build is fragile. The pieces on the wings, the display stand, and side panels will pop off easily. The display stand isn’t strong enough to support the aircraft and often the two pieces that hold up the set will pop off causing the x-wing to drop about a centimeter. Even though that isn’t a lot, the drop is strong enough to have wing pieces fall off. There are noticeable gaps along the fuselage as well.
As a display piece, this is an ok set. If you want to manipulate it any way, be very careful.
The overall design of the ship is very nice looking, but the wings really ruin it. The engines look a little too big in my opinion, but most of the problems are with the wing design. It sags, so you cant display it with the wings closed. The wings are slightly crooked, because the back part of the engine tilts them. The single rubber band used to hold the wings is not sufficient, especially given that the older smaller sets used 2 per wing. The set will not age well as the wings continue to sag.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worst build ever.

This build is absolutely awful. The side panels of the body of the ship barely stay on and if they come off they're a nightmare to reattach, especially once the wings are in place. The base came apart and collapsed and a ton of stuff fell off, and I would need to rebuild the entire set to fix it. Don't waste your money. I'm a diehard Lego fan but this was an absolutely horrible experience.

Pass On This

Cool idea but the overall build is very flimsy and falls apart easily. Wings do not stay on and side panels fall off so easily.
Purchased this product over a year ago. It still sits on my entertainment stand, unfinished. The back panels near where the wings are is nigh impossible to put on. They’re medium sized pieces held by two sockets. You can get one side on but trying to get the other side on you just pop the others off. I’ve read it only gets worse as you build. I should have read reviews better prior to purchasing. I likely should’ve asked for a refund but I can assume too much time has passed. I’d also like to add though that this is my first purchasing issue with Lego as a brand. Unfortunate situation nonetheless

Just a Horrible Experience

Verified Purchase:No
I was very excited to get this set. I loved the way it looked on the box and thought it would look great on my shelf. However, once I excitedly started the build process, I was quickly very frustrated. Every single panel on the fuselage would not stay on. Every connection is extremely weak and every time you try to add onto the build, another part falls off. I spent HOURS rebuilding and reattaching every panel only for them to fall off again later in the building process. I asked others for help and none of them could get the build to stay together either. Ultimately, I completely gave up in frustration and am planning to return it.

LOOKS GREAT... EXCEPT FOR THE WING DROOP

I know a lot of people complain about the panels not being secure and falling off; this wasn't a problem for me, but I was handling the model carefully. The real issue is the wing mechanism which has only one technic brick per wing for support. This is a major design flaw as it causes the wings to sag and twist. Otherwise I think the overall details and shaping of this X-wing are great and it looks awesome on my shelf! If you can get this at a good discount I'd recommend it, but personally I wouldn't buy at full retail.
