Customer Reviews for LEGO - Star Wars X-Wing Starfighter 75355 - Multi

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

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.

This is my first UCS build and currently I’m halted on finishing the first wing. Much like a lot of other people I am on my 10th missing piece. Luckily I have an extensive LEGO collection and I have been able to supplement and find the proper missing pieces but it just puts a halt on the build and has made this extremely frustrating. Really sours me to spend the money on other UCS sets if this is what I have to look forward to. This is the first time LEGO has ever let me down and we have a long history together!

Wish I had read reviews before I bought

Disappointed! I have never had so many missing and damaged pieces. Lego says they will replace pieces but that is of little comfort when I must be the one to contact them.
I already have buyers remorse when spending this much money on Lego’s and this set is sagging flimsy and will have to be placed in a case to prevent someone walking too briskly past it and having it come apart. They should have recalled all of them when reports of this many unhappy builders. I hope the USC sets don’t continue to suffer with QC issues.
As in the photo the canopy is warped beyond repair, the missing pieces I happen to have in abundance but the canopy is a special piece that will have to come from LEGO which again is a real bummer since I have to do all the work for a replacement part.

I have close to 50 Lego models and this one is by far the most frustrating build I have ever done. The connections are weak. Every time you get one side one and try to put the other on, the first falls off. Awful. I have the first UCS x-wing from 2000 and it’s better in every way compared to this. Don’t waste your money. I can’t believe Lego allowed this design to go to market. Very disappointed.

Solid until you want to fly

This build is an interesting one. Just the body of the ship is substantial and dense, you can tell it can take a hit or two. The wings on the other hand… I appreciate what they did and how they did it. The mechanism is simple yet effective but the actual wings are completely unstable and WILL break eventually if you actually use it. I rebuilt it just to make sure I didn’t mess up anything but the wings would not want to reliably stay on.

Challenging and rewarding

The UCS X-WING is stunning! It was challenging at times to build as the side panels can come off easily but once you get them on you are fine. A lot of complaints about the sturdiness but it’s not bad it’s just challenging to build at times but totally doable and all apart of the experience.
Definitely buy it! It looks so cool in person!!
