Recommendation: no 4 / 5

The V-Wing was used by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars and this LEGO version lets kids create their own epic space battles. Collectors can also display it easily because of its small size.

Recommendation: meh 3.4 / 5 by Vaderfan2187

All in all, I think this set is merely mediocre. The build is alright but inaccurate and clunky around the nose. The figures aren't very good, and the model is a bit small so does not have very good value.

From Bricks To Bothans

Recommendation: meh 3 / 5 by Nick Martin

The problem with this set, ultimately, is that its remaking a set that wasn't all that interesting in the first place. The original was a good parts pack and source of dark red when that color was still very rare. Much like dark tan, dark red is now a common color in the Lego mix, so it's not as special. Outside of that technic pin, there's not a lot of “wow" parts in here, and the pilot isn't that huge of a diversion from the previous versions.
