Horrible build
on January 5, 2024
Posted by: GBusters82
I have never screamed so many expletives in all my life. This thing falls apart the moment you add things to it. I had to use super glue to get things to stay. Horrible. How on earth did this ever pass the LEGO approval? Truly. I want a refund, sadly it was a Christmas gift.
Going in the garbage, because that’s where it belongs!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Looks good, not terribly solid

I am just getting back into Lego building, loved it as a kid in the 70s and 80s. This is my second UCS set, the first being Luke Skywalker’s land speeder. I did enjoy this build, took about 10 hours total build time. I thought it was a little more challenging than the Landspeeder. I love the size of the model! I think it was pretty good value for the money. Also, I have always had a great experience with the pieces - I had all the pieces I needed to complete. I did find the end of the build a little fragile. As I was attaching the wings, some of the body side panels would pop off. As I put the panel on, another would pop off. This was frustrating. Overall, the model looks great! It was fun, and relaxing. I would have liked the side panels to be less fragile.

I have never been so disappointed in a set my whole life. A collectors series set should not be sooo cheaply made. DONT send your money on this piece of garbage

Terrible Engineering

When all assembled, assuming that you can actually get all of the pieces on at the same time, the model is very good looking (which is why I gave it a second star). BUT... of the 40 or so Lego models I've built, this was by far the least enjoyable. The build was beyond frustrating; major pieces are held on by only a couple studs, when you put one piece on, something else falls off. And if you do get it assembled, DO NOT trying to move it. Simply the process of handling it causes parts to fall off. At the moment it is sitting on a table with a couple dozen miscellaneous pieces sitting next to it that fell off when moving it from one side of the room to the other. I cannot recommend this model to anyone.

Frail

This set looks good once finished but the build process is beyond frustrating. Been building legos for 25+ years and this is the only set I’ve had to go back and rebuild multiple times due to a poor design causing the interior pieces to fall apart. The wings and frame are very frail and fall off with a light touch. Had to end up glueing pieces for a final result. Would not recommend this set at this price point.

Would not recommend

The wing mechanism is good and relatively smooth compared to the play sets. However, I was extremely disappointed by the fact that you can't fit a mini figure in the cockpit, despite it being massive. Also, the nose is ugly and doesn't lineup in many places. Terrible value for the price, Concord and other similar sets are a lot better for a lower price.
I was waiting for Lego to release a new X-Wing for quite some time and was pretty excited for the build. They missed the mark with this build. The panels are flimsy due to insufficient connection points. The use of rubber bands for the mechanical movement of the wings is a cheap cop-out. The bases used for the helmets are far superior than the base used for this model. The wings don’t stay up without assistance on the completed build. Every step of the build felt like this was a corner cutting cash grab. Do yourself a favor. Save your money and skip this one.
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.
