The panels fall off, the cockpit hatch slightly doesn't go down all the way, the wings slowly fall down to the base position, and there was SO MANY MISSING PEICES. I mean i looked everywhere and I had just opened the bag so they couldn’t have fallen off my desk while i was gone or something, I thought i was going crazy. Not a cheap set too.

The rear side panels are not adequately attached. If you pick it up by the rear section, which is the most logical point because of the weight distribution, you will end up with the panels in your hand. This is due to the attachment points being inadequately supported. The cockpit does not close completely, it springs back open about an eighth of an inch after you close it. The previous X wing kit did not have any of these problems and it was less expensive. there are also red stripe components on the wings that are not adequately supported. I expect way better than this from lego. All and all it is decent if you want to build it and display it out of reach of everyone, but over priced for the quality of the build. Note the photo out of reach of everyone.

This is so big & just too cool not to have. I love the final build but it does have it's challenges. It's a display piece, not a toy. You have too be careful handling it to keep pieces from popping off. They really should have added some additional support to attach side panels of the fuselage. They're easily knocked off. The engine fan blades will fall off if you just touch them. The build was fun & I enjoyed it.

To understand this review, I think it's important to understand the context. The Lego UCS X-Wing is not only an iconic Star Wars image, it's also the OG UCS Set (7191). It's basically the flagship model. It's a big deal and it comes with high expectations.
As a lifelong Lego fan, I've always wanted a UCS X-Wing, but I missed the first couple. I was absolutely thrilled when this one came out, and I had high hpes that I think are reasonable given the legacy of the UCS X-Wing. I was stoked to pre-order it, and more excited about it than any of the other UCS sets I've ordered.
This set - I hate to say - is a flop. It's not terrible in an abstract, fully removed sense, but given what a UCS X-Wing should be, it's a miss. It compares poorly against other UCS sets. The flaws are so numerous, and so obvious, that in my opinion it should have never shipped.
1) The stand breaks. If you ask, Lego will ship you some additional pieces to fix it. Still, ridiculous.
2) You can't fit a minifig in the cockpit.
3) The wings / aspect ratio are just... off. You can lengthen the wings by one stud and it helps, but you shouldn't have to.
4) It's incredibly fragile. Arguably others are fragile too, like the Snowspeeder, but the Snowspeeder is awesome in other ways and still more durable than this. The X-Wing's got a bunch of pieces that just fall off if you touch them. Zero play value, even given low expectations for playing with a UCS set.
5) The wings sag if not in X position, so you can't really pose it. I always liked the vibe of the non-attack-position X wing, but nope.
6) The wing gears loosen over time due to a bad design, and feel sloppy when adjusted. They depend on a plate on the top maintaining tension, and it has a tendency to push up and detach. Not very obvious when it happens, making the set feel imprecise.
7) The greebling on the exterior, and the general detail, is lower than sets like the Snowspeeder, Tie Interceptor, and Y Wing.
8) A lot of visually important pieces are attached by one stud, so they get misaligned.
I'll note that a lot of these issues have community fixes. But that says something; they're all pretty much all fixable, but simply weren't. I have no idea what happened behind the scenes, but the result feels rushed, sloppy, unfinished. Just a bummer.
It deserves the overall low rating, unfortunately, and I wish the designer had done better. This is the only UCS set I have that I can't recommend.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent build, great display piece. The accuracy to the movies is breathtaking, and I think the way Lego designed the blasters and engines is clever, to say the least. Building the four wings took up the majority of the build, which made the second half quite repetitive for those seeking technical variety. Others have complained about the final product being fragile, can't say I agree; I'm able to pick up and move the set around my series of displays with no real issue. The folding mechanism for the wings could be better designed, I don't think the rubber band + gear set up works tremendously, and it takes more effort than I'd like to switch their position. Would've also liked to see a landing gear display option similar to the Razor Crest or Falcon, but the stand does it's job sufficiently. Overall, however, this is an iconic and enjoyable build for Star Wars fans at any level, and certainly looks wonderful on display!
I would recommend this to a friend!

A solid first UCS set

My first ever Lego Star Wars UCS set and honestly I think it was a good one. For starters, the set LOOKS fantastic, its a spitting image of Luke's X-Wing as seen in the original trilogy with a sweet display stand and very detailed Pilot Luke. My main gripes have to do with the stability and mechanism, the set itself is very fragile you have to be careful whilst picking it up or else stuff like the side panels like to break off, the actual wing mechanism itself also likes to jam at times but that might just be user error on my part. ALSO its very big compared to the photos, definitely save some room for this one. Overall it was a really solid display set that whilst it's a bit pricey and certainly has its issues, I think its worth picking up if your seriously interested in it especially before it retires.
I would recommend this to a friend!
