Recommendation: no 4 / 5 from 106 reviews

This fighter looks similar to Plo Koon's and Windu's from the box, but the build is quite different and the final ship is 1 1/2 inches longer and stands a bit taller. It's very sturdy for Legos. Dark green and white with black and gold trim look elegant--looks like a Lexus compared to Windu's Corolla. The rounded cockpit has a computer screen and detaches as an escape pod (leaving the droid to explode with the ship). The legs of the shorter Jedi minifigure can't bend but can fit in the cockpit the same as the other Jedi. A piece underneath the ship holds 1 lightsaber. Has 2 missiles on top and 2 on bottom in an "X" shape if looking at the front. An awesome ship, highly recommended. (Does come w/ 10 stickers--always my least favorite part.)

While I do not think this is the best model of this summer, it has surprised me and is certainly a worthy purchase. The minifigs are outstanding and the Starfighter is a huge improvement over the old designs of this vehicle which is now much more swooshable.

we're given a very worthy update and redesign to what has become our most familiar ship, a $30 price point that's actually pretty easy to swallow, and some minifigures that remind me of Edward James Olmos. That's a win all around.
