Enjoyable Build, QA Lacking
on May 11, 2023
Posted by: KindheartedCorn067
While I thoroughly enjoyed the build process, my #4 bag was missing one of the two dark red 6214309 plates for the nose section, and it was seemingly replaced with a piece that is never even used in the set. Thankfully I had some workable spares from the recent Z28 Camaro set. On top of this, the box the set came in was barely holding closed. When I tilted the box the weight from all the bags was enough to break the seal. This is just disappointing quality control on Lego's part, especially for a UCS set. Other than these 2 issues, this set looks amazing and is a great display piece.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're sorry to hear about that. It's rare for LEGO® sets to miss pieces, and we're here to help if it does. Visit LEGO.build/BricksPieces-BV to request a replacement piece free of charge!

Looks great. Fun build. Super flimsy. Expensive.
on August 9, 2023
Posted by: KeenAnteater035
I knew this one didn’t match up price-wise with some other similar size ships. I have built both the Guardians ship and Batwing. Both were more detailed builds and considerably less expensive. The X-Wing is iconic though and will look great mounted on my wall, so I paid the extra money. The build was fun. The wing adjust knob works well, but overall the thing is super flimsy. Taking the X-Wing off the stand and walking upstairs caused numerous panels to fall off the side and were tedious to put back on without completely removing the wings. There is no right way to hold the model without it breaking. It’s on the wall now in one piece, so I’m happy, but there might have been some foul language getting it there.

QA Not Good, Build Somewhat difficult
on May 15, 2023
Posted by: Snoozer96
This was my first ever Collectors Edition Starfighter build and it took me over 2 weeks to complete the build. The reason it took me so long however is due to waiting for parts to arrive.
This build had 3 missing pieces and 1 miscolored piece that forms the front nose which I notice every-time I look at the Starfighter.
This Starfighter is pretty big so make sure you have enough space to place this thing to display.
I'm glad the parts I needed weren't too special and it only took a week for more parts to arrive. Reading other reviews it seems they have had to wait longer than me to get them.
You've got to be pretty careful when handling this thing as it's pretty flimsy how the sides that lead up to the nose are attached to the main body. The only real place to hold it is the base, but even then I feel nervous about dropping or breaking the thing.
I can understand a set having a missing piece every thousand or so boxes, but from the amount of reviews that are mentioning missing pieces/damaged pieces it seems to be a much larger issue.
Kind of bummed to pay this much money to have, what is essentially, an incomplete build.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I mean... It's a huge lego X-wing come on...
on May 21, 2023

I'm not sure why some people are giving this set bad reviews. The only issue I had was the side panels being flimsy until they were secured by the nose piece. Beyond that it was a very enjoyable build and once completed it holds together very well. It's an excellent display piece and quite obviously wasn't designed to be played with. I absolutely love the finished product.

Pretty Good Overall
on May 4, 2023
Posted by: BakerField
Overall not bad. The proportions are a little strange, especially the engines, and there are some ugly gaps in the nose, but overall the model looks very good. Not to overpriced in my opinion either.

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.

worse lego set wish i could get my money back
on May 11, 2023
Posted by: LordVocalSardine
I am defender of the look o this - I have ownbed both previous UCS X-wings and this is a big upgrade appearance-wise. However the experience is really ruined by the very poor design of the side panels for the fuselage, especially along the nose. The assembly places much too much stress on a couple of connections held by only a few studs. These are therefore prone to popping off, and once one panel fails holding the ship to try top reattach them usually causes others to pop off also. This is the most frustrating build I've had in lego build me or my son has had. I don't think it should have passed QA review and think Lego needs to issue packs with instructions and parts for a fix.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Amazing Value, Incredible model
on May 8, 2023
Posted by: Landon
I was one of the many fans that thought the set looked a bit odd on the box, but after receiving and building the model and seeing it with my own eyes, it blows the other UCS X-Wings out of the park.
I would recommend this to a friend!
