Mando and Grogu vs Lego

Okay, so this set was fun and at sometimes frustrating to put together. The exposed engine part with the 8 pieces on 1 short stick and have it connect to absolutely nothing until the next 1 to 2 steps and just hope it lines up right and doesn't pop off. That was frustrating. As for the set itself, the chrome really makes the set. I do have to agree with one reviewer about the cockpit not being a good fit for Mando. I ended up putting him on the name plate. And I'm horrible at stickers, can we print them on the pieces please? If I'm gonna spend my paycheck on a UCS set, make it look like it. If your counting on me with sticker placement, your out of luck. If you have the previous N1, your not missing much, I promise. Def wait for it to go on sale.
Little expensive versus brick size but fun to build. Problem with ball joints initially but a little adjusting worked. Highly recommend. Stickers annoying. I put one on upside down and when I removed it to place it would not stick down fully.
Got the set during May the 4th and it looks amazing on display. The chrome/metallic pieces give it a really unique look compared to my other UCS sets. Great details in both the engines and was enjoyable to build. Overall great set, makes me stop and look every time I walk by.
Build experience felt pretty standard for something of this scale. I was a bit underwhelmed at first once the ship was fully assembled. I'd chalk that up to constructing while under-the-weather. The next morning upon further observation -and much better lighting, I was captivated by all of the organic shaping and what it really took to make that happen from a parts perspective. Since lego bricks on their own don't lend themselves to that form-factor. Even though UCS sets are intended for display, "swooshability" is an important factor to me since Lego is so deeply predicated on being a tactile experience and for play. While far from the extreme fragility of the 75355 X-Wing, this N-1 Starfighter does has some "fiddly" bits depending upon from where you choose to hold it. All-in-all, this is a very sturdy set for something of this size and scale. Care should be taken to how it's handled nonetheless. Overall, I'm very happy with this set. It's quite the looker all the way around.
I loved getting this set. it was very enjoyable to build, and is a great set for my collection. The piece count may be low, but the scale and lacquered bricks make up for it. The new Grogu piece is also great.
I wanted a detailed n1 for a long time. To have seen one upgraded to be better then the original ship and then be made into Lego was perfect for me. Love this set.
Really enjoyed this one, as the build had some interesting techniques to get those unique angles of the starfighter. Regarding the stickers: I know lots of folks don't like them (and I'm not the biggest fan), but at least with this model the color matching is much, much closer (shade of gray) to the bricks themselves. Also, I found the stickers on this one especially easy to apply, but maybe I was just in a sticker mood at the time. In any event, this is a good model, and given its size, looks great on display (especially next ot Razor Crest).
