For future people deciding whether or not to buy this: The stand has been fixed in new purchases. I recommend using a spare stud/1x1 underneath R2 to boost him up a bit. And displaying the xwing sideways banking towards you looks awesome (If you really want to see the plaque too I made a custom mini stand for the plaque with spare pieces from the set itself. I didnt find the panelling anywhere near as close to as fragile as he did.
I like the honest open review and the bag by bag review is great as well. Keep up the good work. As for the rubber bands, just like all of the other models in the past, if you leave them in a stretched position, they will dry out and break. I take mine out of the models or dont put them in, leave the wings closed for display.
Great Review. Love the comparisons to the other models. I really like that mechanism for the foils. I agree that I'd be concerned about longevity with it, although my concern comes from the clicking of the parts. Can't wait to see the designer interview :D
Can't wait to grab this. I have the '98 and 2000 version although my 2000 version came in a beat up box that was trampled at ToysRUs back in the day so it's missing a ton of bags. Still trying to scour the internet for replacement pieces
Good review Commander Crusty. I think I went a little overboard, because I ended up with 6 Midi Scale Death Star II's from online orders. Now to wait & see if all 6 show up & in what condition. May the Force be with you......
I would try displaying the set sideways like you tried, but turn the stand around so the plaque is facing the wall. Then the top of the x-wing will be angled out. I feel like that would be the best viewing angle.
Great review. Some reviews sayd that it was almost impossible to build because of the side panels keep falling of and it was kinda flimsy. But looking at this video it isnt that bad. Looks to my the only panels that can fall off are the engine side panels. Looks awesome
Hi Ross 😊👋🏼, Ross you did a Good Job of Explaining the X Wing Star fighter of the Build of the Lego set bro 😊👍🏼👍🏼, you did a great job of Explaining the Old X Wing to the New One bro, The New one looks the same thing as the Old one from a couple years ago when Luke Skywalker Flew in #Ross 😊👍🏼, y didn't they put the Grey peace in the New Lego starfighter ship from the front of the Ship Ross 😊? the #LegoBook instructions look Really Nice and Clean to Ross 😊👍🏼👍🏼. Tell your Wife and My Friend: #Emily I said Hi to her from Me Ross 😊👍🏼. Your Good Friend & Emily Friend: #JustinBalaban & #Balaban to 😊👍🏼👍🏼 ( P.s ) #HappyBelatedBirthday 🎂 to: #LadyBird. I hope she has amazing Birthday Ross & Emily 😊👍🏼👍🏼. Your Lego Room looks Awesome Ross 😊👍🏼👍🏼.
I think the 2021 is the best playscale one. Controversial, maybe, but two aspects really make it - the new nose design is imo much more accurate and proportional, and the laser cannons which are much longer than in 2018 version. Not to mention much more reasonable price.
Great review. I ordered day one as I don't have any other X-Wings. Great deal with promos plus I had just over 18,000 VIP points so got a very hefty discount. As I said, great knowledgeable review!
I think at $200 it would be worth it for me. My biggest problem would be I don’t know where I would display it, especially if I but it on a lower shelf, in which I agree with you.
I love that wing meconium 😊 ohh I would like a lot of thos white tile s with bin s on back that be great to something of back of a build so.not cee inside of the bricks 😊
thanks for the video. I dont think I will buy this set. Maybe I'm just too picky, but I think the hull/fuselage is too long or the wings are too small. In addition the model is too flimsy.
Def an iconic lego set. I know you mentioned it has a couple week connection but do you think it can be hung up to the ceiling? Was there a quick eject r2d2 effect? And one perk of the panels being easy to take off is in a moc you can easily have this in a being repaired state :) great review
No I not Sean that smooth plate piece with pin s on bottoms must be a new part Ross but theirs so Manny part I'm Shaw some one with a.bricklink would have a pic of it and how Manny sets it s in
@@MrSaurusOfficial that’s so cool mate! Do you have any idea or any advice on how I would I get something good at least like I posted a review on a new channels and got like only 22 views which is good for someone with 0 subs lol but like I just want to have a serious channel
If you just have the wings out it doesn't matter, the 2013 doesn't have the Hexagonal panel shape and the engines are uncomfortably small. 2022 any day.
@@MrSaurusOfficial Thanks for letting me know. Now more excited to get me one of my own. Love to put them beside each other. Being the most Iconic ships for the OT and Prequels, respectively.
The issue with the two pieces popping off when the model goes on the stand or weight is applied is acknowledged by lego and a fix is being worked on. Heard that in another build/review video
Can you tell your wife I’ve been asking if she has a German/ Austrian flag for 95 days? I’ve been commenting for so long and I can’t take it anymore lmao
@@MrSaurusOfficial will do I've only just got into Lego star wars to he fair I've built the Luke and Darth Vader helmets and I'm definitely getting the new xwing because I missed out on the previous...but the direction I'm going in is basically the original UCS trilogy ships and vehicles and helmets which is going to get expensive but also part of the fun tracking down the likes of a Y wing and B wing and so on also not interested in sequels or prequels or mini figures to be honest... Its my girls fault for getting me the awesome Lego Optimus prime 🤦.
Lego has gone woken groomer mode in there advertising, stop supporting the people who are so interested in the sexuality of small children .the world is getting sick enough thanks to these companies that want social credit scores.
Awesome review 🥳
😊💥👌😁
Ross when you said you need your ID ready to buy this I lost it laughing 😂😂

The way the ship is on an angle is really cool
I agree!
Awesome review ross happy birthday Ladybird

The Luke figure is actually really cool, cool video as always!! 👍👍
Thanks!!
Great first review, The Kiss at the end looked like the Sarlacc Pit from ROTJ :)
Loved the vid man. Keep um coming👍
Thanks Pikachu!

Appreciate it! I think it helps me keep my thoughts fresh as I can record them right after building a bag.
Love the positivity! Can’t wait to see more reviews. I always love when lego lets TH-camrs review sets early. 👍
Appreciate it! 😁
being new to Lego but not star wars im looking forward to buying this set on May 1st
Great Review. Love the comparisons to the other models. I really like that mechanism for the foils. I agree that I'd be concerned about longevity with it, although my concern comes from the clicking of the parts. Can't wait to see the designer interview :D
Thanks Bryan! I'm interested in seeing the longevity of it too.
you are underrated loved the indepth review

There's just something super magical about the Lego Star Wars X wings 😁

I thought about that later too. I wonder if the mechanism would hold at an angle for a long time. 🤔
Great review video Ross... Fan of Emma and now a fan of you

Good review
Amazing review! Love how you compared and showed us but my bit
Keep going! Lego Star Wars is my favourite so I will ALWAYS be watching haha
I really appreciate it! I love talking about all the old stuff too!
great review. I cannot wait to get my copy of it on Monday. Looking forward to getting a UCS version for the first time.
This is my first UCS Xwing and I love it!
Great review. I ordered day one as I don't have any other X-Wings. Great deal with promos plus I had just over 18,000 VIP points so got a very hefty discount. As I said, great knowledgeable review!
Great review Ross!! Congrats on 3K🎉 that Luke Minifig is so good!
Appreciate it! 😁
I like how after bag 7 it was taking on the shape of an E-Wing :P
I thought the same thing! Just needs a big laser canon on top!
Ohh I like that star wars book with pic.s Of all the diffrent sets .😊
Amazing video!!!
Awesome review 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great review Ross happy birthday ladybird

I think at $200 it would be worth it for me. My biggest problem would be I don’t know where I would display it, especially if I but it on a lower shelf, in which I agree with you.
great review for a great set.
Thanks! 😁
tbh this looks much better than I thought it would!
Ohh the new beast is out. Same was saying the frunt is a little to phat. But I think the build is okay just looks as good as the last one.
Great vid, I’m considering picking it up with Double VIP points but I’m unsure
It's tough, I would say double VIP would be the best time to get it value wise however there could be other opportunities in the future!
2018 was a good year for ships I believe that was a good year for both the Tie Fighter and Xwing
That was and still is the best Tie Fighter!
Best reviewer on TH-cam. Ross>>all. I personally don't like this set so I won't be getting it but appreciate your honest, fair review.
Thanks a bunch!
Glad we finally have an R2 D2 have back printing
Ooof can't believe I missed that
The 2 pieces tha felt off Lego said they notice there is an issues , so they will redesign without extra parts..
I love that wing meconium 😊 ohh I would like a lot of thos white tile s with bin s on back that be great to something of back of a build so.not cee inside of the bricks 😊
Love the thumbnail homie
Thanks homie
Cool looking set, but not worth the money for me. Gotta save for the August/September wave! Great job on the review!
Appreciate it!
My favourite dinosaur! Wait no my joint favourite dinosaur! (problem solved)
What will the next set be? Pls Indiana and Jones
Nice review ! I really like your videos, continue this and you maybe become more popular to Emmasaurus lol (she must not see this lmao)
It comes out may 1st for vip. So basically it comes out may 1st
thanks for the video. I dont think I will buy this set. Maybe I'm just too picky, but I think the hull/fuselage is too long or the wings are too small. In addition the model is too flimsy.
LEGO has a fix for the stand and the two pieces that fall off. Or, so I have heard.
This is May 1st for VIPs.
Ooof you're right!
Did you have a lot of left overs after bag 6 and if so were they used for bag 7?
I only got the last bag to finish, but the wings don’t lock in place for me, do I need to finish it or did I mess it up?
Def an iconic lego set. I know you mentioned it has a couple week connection but do you think it can be hung up to the ceiling? Was there a quick eject r2d2 effect? And one perk of the panels being easy to take off is in a moc you can easily have this in a being repaired state :) great review
I think it actually would hold well with string or something but it would have to go under the hull in spots.
No I not Sean that smooth plate piece with pin s on bottoms must be a new part Ross but theirs so Manny part I'm Shaw some one with a.bricklink would have a pic of it and how Manny sets it s in
The most important question that I have is how fast can it make the Kessel Run, hmmmm????
I'm guessing a little more than 12 parsecs
0:53 woah your right…
Hey man awesome review how did you get that many subs and views on your first review?
Thanks! I'm completely overwhelmed with how many people have subscribed. I've been posting for about a week now
@@MrSaurusOfficial that’s so cool mate! Do you have any idea or any advice on how I would I get something good at least like I posted a review on a new channels and got like only 22 views which is good for someone with 0 subs lol but like I just want to have a serious channel
Number one reason the 2013 model is superior: the wings don't sag! The new X-Wing has an Achilles heal, and that is the sagging wings.
If you just have the wings out it doesn't matter, the 2013 doesn't have the Hexagonal panel shape and the engines are uncomfortably small. 2022 any day.
Он на полке очень красиво будет смотреться!
where did you get the double glass door displays in your Lego room?
Walmart!
How wide is it from wing to wing?
It’s a girthy boy !
Giiirrrttthhh
They should release a yavin 4 set.
I hope one day!
Happy Birthday, Ladybird! 🎉 Great video, it does look nice, I may be tempted by this one, Like that smash button people! 👍
Appreciate it!!
Good 😊👍
Congrats on your 3rd Vid on your channel, Ross! Wondering if it's the same scale as the UCS Gunship. Is it? 🤔
It's hard to say but based off the size of the cockpit I would have to say it is very similar!
@@MrSaurusOfficial Thanks for letting me know. Now more excited to get me one of my own. Love to put them beside each other. Being the most Iconic ships for the OT and Prequels, respectively.
this is one of those models that from initial impressions, doesn’t match the final outcome (build and close observation).
You got your facts wrong, its out May 1st.. check the site.
Ooof, yup I realized after I filmed. It's May 1st for VIP and 4th for non VIP
