LEGO75273 Star Wars Poe Dameron's X-wing Fighter Building Set, The Rise of Skywalker Movie Series

PROS:- very good and interesting build and building process- great to display- the x-wing feature works great- decent character selection- vibrant colours, very different to most SW lego sets- just an overall great x-wing if you find a saleCONS:- look for a sale, high price for no more than 800 pieces- lacks one or two minifigures for the price- bad spring loaded shooter location

Excellent Lego starwars X wing. Kids love it. It's nearly built now and has kept them busy for ages. They love it being starwars fans.I can't give it more than 3 stars on value for money as I always feel official Lego products are over priced, though they are of course very good.5 stars overall!

I bought this as a gift but the recipient was absolutely delighted with it and had a lot of fun putting it together. Definitely a good few hours of assembly and it was good value on prime day.

Rise of Skywalker is not my favourite Star Wars movie, but I like quite a few of the toys and Lego sets based on the movie. And I suspect we will not see more sets from this movie soon. So I’m glad we got this cool and distinctive Poe Dameron orange X-Wing fighter. This set is simply a very good, about 36 cm in length, Lego version with excellent wing mechanics. The built was not very demanding for my young resistance engineer, it took him less than 2 hours that he spread over a few building sessions. I did not really have to assist aside from the sticker handling, but there were only a few included.The completed 761-piece model stands outs nicely with its orange colours among our growing Star Wars Lego collection, though it lacks a bit in sturdiness - I have to put parts back in place quite frequently after play sessions. The X-wing has a few play functions which is nice, though they are hardly surprising.; the cockpit opens, the landing gear retraces, R2 units can be placed in the back and the wings can be put in attack position. The fighter also has several of these annoying spring loaded missiles, that we always lose and that add very little to the play value if you ask me (they are actually quite distracting as they always shoot when you don’t want them and always in a direction where they are hard to find again). Also in this model the missile launchers are somewhat inconveniently placed. On the other hand I quite like the included cockpit ladder for the pilot, a nice item to add to your resistance base.In terms of figures the set is okay. The most interesting figures are of course Jannah, that can only be found in this set. And the single Knight of Ren that completes our bunch of 5 Knights in brick form - although I wonder what the relevance was of adding him to a set with Poe and Jannah. We already have countless of Poe and R2 figures but I can understand why they had to be included in this set. The combination of the figures and the iconic value of the fighter provides good value. I paid £75 for it, which I think was an appropriate price.

Amazon is a good place to get this set at a cheaper price point than the Lego shop itself. I managed to pick it up for around 80 whereas it's quoted as 109 on Lego shop. Very good set, solid build, good for play or display.

Good build definitely not worth £90 I got this on sale for about £50 definitely worth it at the price

Lego is great fun and always great quality

Good model realistic looking fun to build.
