Ehhhh
on May 8, 2023
Posted by: Rdweisenb
If you’re going to keep doing the same ships or ideas, the next needs to continue to be better than the last. This is not. The Red 5 is still the king. This was the first UCS build I’ve had fall apart and have to open the instructions back up. The side panels, the engines, etc. and I can’t even get the cockpit to sit flush because it was just thrown in the box with no protection and got warped. When it’s finally complete it looks great minus the oversized nose piece. All that said, if the put another x-wing model out next week I would still buy it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This thing is simply great
on May 7, 2023
Posted by: HeroicSquirrel056
I absolutely love this set. I wasn't so into the hobby when either of the previous 2 versions were released, so getting this opportunity to add one of the most iconic and recognizable ships from all of Star Wars was a no brainer to me. I do not understand why so many people are saying the model is fragile and that the side panels are difficult to keep in place. It is not fragile, and I had no problems building this set whatsoever. If you have those issues, then I dare say you're building it incorrectly. My included cockpit canopy had several noticeable scratches, so I'll need to replace that, but thats about the only bad thing I have to say about this set. R2 doesn't feel like he belongs in the ship given its scale. I'm also concerned about how the rubber bands inside will hold up over time. As a whole,, it's still amazing and I'm so happy to have one on my shelf.. Bottom line, if you don't have an X Wing already, you won't be unhappy with this one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

A disappointment
on May 22, 2023
Posted by: Mr.FitOstrich
This is the most fragile of the kits I own in the UCS range. Too many components are held on by one or two 2 stud connections. This makes handling this kit absolutely maddening as you need to fix something every time.
The stand will break under the weight of the model if you rotate the stand without removing the model or lifting the whole thing. I'm disappointed in these obvious issues making it into production

Disappointing
on May 7, 2023
Posted by: CaptainSuperbPsyclone
What an absolute disappointment. I have nearly all the UCS sets as well as dozens of others. This is the first set I've ever wanted to return... The side panels are nearly impossible to keep on. Not sure how this made it through quality control.

First UCS Disappointment
on May 15, 2023
Posted by: Mishra42
I was so excited to close out the trio of Rebel starships from the original Lucasarts X-wing game. Unfortunately the whole set feels cheap and poorly thought out. UCS kits aren't play kits, but the opening mechanism is totally inadequate for the weight of the wings. Two tiny rubber bands hold the wings open and they're just not cutting it. The attached Photo is at maximum opening.
The whole build seems poorly thought out. Wings should have been assembled opposite each other to balance the mechanism to avoid overstretching those rubber bands. Right now instructions have you build the bottom wings first. I was worried the flimsy rubber bands would snap.
If you pick up the model everything shakes and bounces and feels like it's going to fall apart.
Considering how awesome the Y-wing and A-wing kits were I'm pretty disappointed.

Pass on this
on May 15, 2023
Posted by: Katsman24
I wanted this set to be so much better. I wanted an x-wing to match the tie fighter (set 75095) but this set it not it. From the sagging wings (due to lack of support) to the stand loosing pieces when used, this set is lacking. To say I was disappointed is an understatement statement.

Cool set with some unnecessary hate
on December 2, 2023
Posted by: ManagerManlyGuava100
In my opinion, there’s a lot of unnecessary hate in the reviews. It’s an engaging build (although expectedly the wings are repetitive) and it is an awesome display set. But that’s what it is. A display set. And that’s okay! Some of the panels do fall off due to poor connection points, but it isn’t a play scale X-Wing. I made some of my own modifications to tighten the wing mechanism and bring the engines closer to the body; that’s part of the fun of Lego for me. For what it’s worth, I really enjoy this set. I’m surprised to see it ranked so poorly.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Solid Collector's Piece - Below Average Build
on May 6, 2023
Posted by: ChocoboGuy
As a collector's piece it's great. It's the freaking X-Wing! And its the most detailed one that LEGO has ever put out. As something to put on your shelf to look at and show off, its fantastic.
That being said, it wasn't fun to build because it's incredibly repetitive (the 4 wings are nearly identical). Also the wing mechanism is flimsy at best. This is not a set you want to play with. It's for looking at.
I would recommend this to a friend!
