The day when LEGO uses something other than angry clone for a trooper will be special.
Why does everyone hate angry clone? The face is under the helmet so you're never going to see it.
TheTwoLonelyTimeLords I miss when they used the banaclava heads, but most people dont like those.....
Because of that, I bought on Bricklink old faces for replacing those Generic Human Faces.
TheTwoLonelyTimeLords no idea why they don't use the calm one it looks so much better
Yeah... I got excited and then... I was anikin at the end of revenge of the sith.
I'm going to spoil Rogue One...........A Stormtrooper dies.
KFAR Hilbert about a 1000 stormtroopers die, it was horrible😭😭
KFAR Hilbert Noooooo the spoilers
HOW DARE U SPOIL IT!!!!!!!!!😢😢😭😭😲😲😲 (even tho i saw it)
KFAR Hilbert As Darth Vader once said:
NOOOOOO!
KFAR Hilbert u jerk
The y wing pilot is called Wona Gonan ( gold nine ) and the droid is called R3-S1
Weyland Jones he is also in the u-wing set
Weyland Jones Gold leader not gold nine
Goban* ;)
Weyland Jones Kielbassa
Weyland Jones i know
Guys, I have a great reason why Darth Vader wasn't on Scariff to help in the battle!
sand.
Derpy Derp genius
Derpy Derp lol
Oh snap, you really went all out on that meme, but now that you mention it, wouldn't it be better to have him fighting on the ground in this movie?
James Goldring how would they explain him escaping the destruction of the planet or his Star Destroyers appearance
Nice
60 stormtroopers missed the like button.
Looking at this set, you can tell LEGO knows the Y-Wing isn't the most popular of the Star Wars vehicles so they put a lot of cool and exclusive Minifigures in order to entice people enough to buy it.
Actually, the y wing is my favourite star wars original trilogy starfighter.
Not the most popular over all, but this is the favorite for a lot of us. I really don't think they fluffed it up at all to get it to sell.
Ladondorf I think you are right 😁
Actually I love the Y-Wing ._.
And that's why I bought it... Although, it does look quite nice and does look like what its like in the film, however ugly it is.
I translated the Arbesh. It says "DANGER"
How normal people spend New Years: Partying. How Jang spends it: Reviewing a LEGO set. Lol
Nice review
this will be me xD I don't like people
GeneralGreivous66 hello there
The “generic” Y-Wing pilot is Jon (Dutch) Vander, and the R3 droid is R3-S1, also called threece.
Got this set recently. Just found a promo photo which shows that part of Moroff's backpack comes off to make a gun stand. The two brown clips sit on the ground holding the grey axle-holding piece, and then the gun mounts through that.
This set is great. I bought it a few days ago and I could not be happier; the figs are great and the build is quite sturdy. It was my first y wing so I can't compare it to anything but it is just great.
Prune Face this is the new one I think though?
Prune Face yo I love your profile pic I love robot chicken
That profile pic from robot chicken. That was a funny one
I just bought it off amazon and I'm getting it next week, its my first y wing too and I'm really excited!
Oh my god it's Prune Face!
Can I just say: If I ever see a Lego model I like the look of, I never buy it before I've watched one of your video reviews of it.
In legends R3 where the ones with the clear domes, they where also sold to military clients, the rebels rarely had them
Did you know admiral raddus is blue because he grew up in the arctic region of his home planet of Mon Cala
Kosti Scholey That really interesting. I never knew that.
I did :)
So it's like how People from Africa have black skin.
I knew that.
This is easily the best playset build for a y-wing yet.
Vanilla Nipple Also one of the best star wars sets in terms of value. Lots of good pieces, well designed model and great figures.
I would recommend this to someone for a set. It has interesting characters, amazing build and it's all for around 50 US dollars. If you looking for a star wars set that's worth the money, I would get this.
K, I have a bit of money and I’m looking for a set for under £90. Should I get this?
TheGamingDinosaur no
TheGamingDinosaur as long as you like the y-wing, definitiv a yes. But there are also many other nice sets out there such as the u-wing, tie silencer, with a bit luck obi-wans starfighter with the hyperdrive, the at-st from rogue one and maybe some more I just don’t remember now. By now I have all the ones I mentioned and all of them are great in their unique way.
For about 90 Bucks you could also maybe get two or three smaller Sets which sometimes also very nice ones.
Harshfrown BrowT, lol, this is the only lego set nowadays that's actually priced reasonably.
The pilot is supposed to be a blue squadron member but the helmet is of Gold Nine (and the y-wing itself obviously has the gold squadron colors)
“Built up decently nicely”
You are a word Smith my friend
John Doe this set is tedious to build
Got this for Christmas I really like it. My only other Y-Wing is the Clone Wars one.
Same, I finished building it yesterday, and it's so good!
Yeah me too,I finished it like 3 days ago, pretty cool
I have the clone wars y wing
I just got this set for $35 at Walmart, it's awesome
Me too!
I'm so happy they came out with a admiral Raddus minifig! I know that'll be popular
Yeah, he looks really cool.
I've always found the Y-Wings as my favorite starfighters, idk why, but they're really cool.
JustaKoreanGuy the arc-170 was my favorite star fighter
(I think I go the numbers wrong)
4 figs And a droid Is absolutely awesome for a Y wing. Going to buy it
The y-wing is my absolute favourite Starfighter design. I shall forever refer to it as the "space volvo" or "The everyman's starfighter".
The pilot’s helmet is gold nine, however the jumpsuit is one of blue squadron
my old house had this and the A-Wing just in the basement left by the past owners.
Office Mercs wow a real Awing
Office Mercs Your old house? This is a recent set, so either you move houses every month, or that was a 2012 (Or older) Y-Wing set. Oh or that was a mistake.
Office Mercs lucky
One of my fave sets. As for the Astro mech sideways problem. I think the solution is actually to not try and solve it at all. The solution in my mind is the sets use two astromech heads one for the droid minifig and the other for the vehicle. A hardwired to the vehicle Astromech is actually canon with the Jedi Starfighters. You could also use a turntable tile so the head can rotate and use those humped tiles to represent the "shoulders" of the legs.
Paul Snell or do what they did for obiwans starfighter where they stick the head where its meant to go and create a storage compartment somewhere else on the ship
This is an impressive remake. I have the full white Y-wing and the bomb area is annoying. It would drop bombs from the upper side and you had to pull out the plug to let them drop. This on the other hand is fantastic. I might modify my old Y-wing to fit this mechanism just to see what its like
Great detail for a non UCS set. It's almost like a mini UCS. Great display piece! I'm just not crazy about the minifigs as I'm more of an original trilogy fan.
yeah the set is very detailed and that astromech looks nice
Now we just need to get rid of these spring shooters...
Faylayx You could replace them with another piece or other pieces!
You can use Moroff as just an alien, Raddus as just another Mon Calamari on the Home One, the astromech and the trooper are just original trilogy and the pilot, well, A-wing pilots had green uniforms?
Tim Sevigney same
Love your reviews, I watch one for each set before making a purchase. Many thanks for the effort you put in.
I got this set 2 weeks ago and I really love the Moroff minifigure. the engines were so tedious though
btw the Aurebesh says Danger
Celldrom yep, they were very tedious
They look awesome, but they seem to be hard to put together.
5:47 idea for lego revolver poped into my head
This is probably the best price I've seen for a set this size, let alone with this many figures and with custom alien figures. When I first saw this on Walmart I thought they made a mistake on the pricetag. [Imagine my surprise when there was also a Lego sale going on that I hadn't heard of, got this for $35.]
$35 is insane value-- nearly 700 parts, cool figures, really design techniques, great display value, great play value. I got it for a similar price tag, was this some sort of mistake? Very odd pricing.
I got mine for 35 last night. I felt like a thief.
Me as well
$35 is a STEAL! Got mine at Target for $50 - which isn’t bad at all. But not nearly as good as $35.
Aw man! I got mine for $50 but I’m not complaining because that’s kind of good.
I really enjoyed this y-wing, the pilot, and the astomech you get with this set. The bombing mechanism is cool as well.
NO LEGO WHY DID YOU INCLUDE A STOMACH
It is an R3 unit. In - universe, R3 units have translucent domes, as well as upgraded tech to R2 units.
I got the last one of these in stock from my local walmart. On clearance for 35 bucks. At that price i'm in love with it!
Actually the Y-wing holds four bombs and the fourth one is tricky to load in but with practice I can do it
Cool video! I wish everybody who reads this a happy new year!
5511MocProductions HAPPY NEW YEAR TOO
HAPPY NEW YEAR AND MANY BRICKS TOO
Happy New Year!
TheShadowMaster64 Ok.......
TheShadowMaster64 Wrong comment.
My wife got me this for my b-day. Totally love it and concur with your verdict! Terrific review as usual, Jang!
This ship will always have a special place in my heart going back to the trench run. Nice job Jang! Awesome set as well!
One thing, the Astromech, although maybe with not the y-wing, can be found placed sideways in many ships. Just take that into consideration...
Just bought this one! Looking forward to build it tomorrow! Got back to lego a few months ago after 16-17 years of absense, and love it so much! Now when im an adult i can afford to buy the more expensive sets that i did not get when i was a kid. My fiancée is not super excited about my new (old) hobby, but she's started to be less vocal about it now at least. Love your vids jang, i hope to some day get close to the collection you have! Cheers from Sweden!
My bank account is pretty upset I am gonna make a squadron of these
LegoPaul94 rip bank account it died☹️
Nathaniel Adams I find that the 2012 y wings nose and head section is too large. That's my opinion though.
LegoPaul94 hey its 40 now on toys r us
haha. i wish i could buy at least 1! hey... You should also get a microfighters y-wing so You can have at least 1 different pilot for your Squadron.
I got this for 35$ at Walmart today!
to fixes the droid problem just use the droids head and fill up the spaces
It looks impressive. I've never been a huge fan of Y-Wings, or really any Rebel vehicles in general but They just keep getting better and better each year.
Great set. Great review. I have each version of these ships so far and will not be missing out on this one. You are right about needing this level of goodness applied to the other Rebel Ships. I want to see a Light Grey and Orange Rogue One X-wing soon.
8:49, I was so in hope that the Stormtrooper didn't have an angry clone head. You got me so hard Jang!
I passed up buying the Gold Leader Y-Wing a few years back because I figured Lego would end making a better (more accurate) Y-Wing set later. That day has come. Thanks for the review. It was really great the see this set in detail.
I just bought and built this set. It's beautiful and has many 'Salieri' moments of genius in it. The designers seemed to have put a lot of genuine love into this build and it is a pleasure to construct and behold I actually have no criticisms of it. But then again I'm old school. Grew up in the 80s the Y wing was secretly my favourite ship - and the B wing. I really hope lego come back with the B Wing ...
The way lego uses all there pieces to create sets always impresses me, all the clever little combinations of pieces.
This set looks fantastic. I was never able to get the last Y-Wing that came out, but I'm definitely picking up this one. Happy New Year Jang !
I just ordered it with out knowing so much I’m super excited
ANDYWOOHOO YT it's a really great set
This is so beautiful
For a second there I actually thought it wasn't going to be Angry Clone. Thanks for the high quality entertainment and happy new year
My first Y-Wing bomber and I love it! Looks really awesome and it's a great display set :)
Thank you so much again. Wonderfull video as we just buyed it and looking forward to the build. Btw €35 in Europe on discount.
We always first watch your video’s before buying.
Ah, I still remember when I had the very first Lego Y-Wing with Vader's Advanced Tie Fighter, they only made a handful of Y-Wings in the past, the Clone Wars version looked pretty awesome in my opinion, this one is still very nice, accurate to even the original trilogy, just a slight update, especially the bomb launcher and the spring-loaded lasers, very nice review!
The arubesh says “danger”
Ball python With a mustache yeah
I hope we get more gigoran later, there are a few different weapon variants to include. Maybe a battle pack...
Hi Jangbricks, I really like all your videos and I like this one too. You are correct about the droid that comes with the set. It is an R3-series droid because they have clear domes. Also, that rebel pilot helmet reminds me of Gold Leader. Thanks for making these videos and keep up the good work.
I've been waiting for this review for a long time
Coolest Y-Wing since 7658. I might have to get this one when it's available in the USA as I skipped 9495 and the 8037 Clone Wars version. Thanks for the quality review as usual!
I really like that Lego made the spring loaded shooters halfway removable. Gives it both play value and display value without a lot of work.
I really like that y-wing, I get one for christmas for myself and added some more details in the center section and on the sides and I added a hatch for the bomb compartment which was a great idea to do that in my own opinion.
Wow this set looks really good + 5 mini figs. Have a happy new year enjoyed all the videos.
NICE!!!! The #1 set on my get-list. Thanks for sharing!!!
Amazing video! Very detailed review, I really like the Y-Wing Starfighter!
I've always been a fan of Y-wing's too, from way back when I saw the first movie. For some reason they always felt more like a 'real' ship than the X-wings.
Great set, that bombing system is essentially a repeat of the system used in the old clone wars set 8039, Venator Class Republic Attack Cruiser
I really hope I will be able to find this one on discount somewhere. The Y-wing was my favorite fighter from the original trilogy, and this looks to be a very nice rendition. Good video.
The words on the little cargo thing spells out “danger”
Nice vehicle, great review as always Jang!
The Y-Wing is my most favorite starfighter-type vehicle in all of Star Wars. That fact just makes me want this set *that* much more.
That little storm trooper gag was brilliant.
i love this starfighter so much, i love the y wing, and also the x wing
If you load the bombs from the bottom with a finger over the loading slit on top, you CAN load all four bombs. With proper alignment of the lobes, you can swoosh it without any falling out of the top or bottom.
I've never really liked the y wing but lego has made this beautiful and I think they did a great job
I like the leg printing on Raddus. It can be useful outside a star wars setting
I always enjoy watching your videos, they are so helpful with finding the pros and cons of different sets.Also how do you get so many Lego sets?
Excellent review. Thanks Jang.
I just got this set today and I really like it
cool IM GONNA MAKE A FLEET OF THESE
Overall 10/10 set. Playability is great and display is cool, too!
Twospoopy4Gabite right my opinion!!
This LEGO Star Wars Y-Wing Starfighter is One of the best sets ever made from Rogue One this vehicle was in the Movie Stars Wars Episode 4 5 and 6. This new set is the best out of all Nice Review Jang.
Wish it came with a Jon Vander (Gold Leader) figure, instead of the U-Wing pilot.
Looking at the yellow bits, it should be really easy to customize it to make your own squad. Definitely hunting this down when it goes stateside!
I'm going to be getting this!!! So excited!
Oh man, you made me think that stormtrooper got a new face, I was excited. XD
I just picked this set up the other day on sale at My local Toys R Us I am very pleased
Gman P it's till selling in toy r us??????
R.I.P toysrus
I swear the "Cocky/Terrified Rebel Pilot" has become the new Angry Clone for Lego. It would be nice of they had two or three variations for the generic pilots, just like what they do with the generic ground soldiers.
Can't wait for you to review the A-Wing later next year!
Toys R Us said today they will be on sale on March1st. The Y wing, Yoda's Fighter and Battle on Scariff were on the shelves. The lady there was nice enough to override the computer so I could get one but then had the others taken off the shelves til March 1st.
glad your taking a look at the box
Happy New Year, Jang. May 2017 bring you plenty of brick-based joy.
Excellent video as always Jang!
Maybe re-add the set details info again at the end of videos, cause I always get to the end, then question the cost and piece numbers. Amazing videos though, I enjoy watching them
Dang Jang! You got me with the "new" stormtrooper head! I'll just keep dreaming for one.
I'd love to see a video comparing this set with the last big Y-wing set from a couple years ago.
Can't decide if i want this or the U wing, both are very cool.
I wasn't completely sold on purchasing this set, but the detail and build looks spectacular! But Jang Admiral Raddus would never lower himself to be a mere crew member! lol Glad they reintroduced the Y-Wing, oh childhood memories!
Very nice Y-wing, looks like the best one yet.
