Brikkyy13 Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) Today I was lucky enough to find the new U-Wing in the wild. The store had Krennic's Shuttle on the shelf, so I asked the clerk if they had the rest. He brought all the sets they had out for me and I got my pick of the litter! The U-Wing was #1 on my list, so I had to get it. I published the review here on Brickipedia, I hope you enjoy it! Edited September 28, 2016 by Brikkyy13 Quote
RetroInferno Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Thanks a lot for the early review, we never get enough coverage reviews outside of the UK and USA which brings a different view on the value of the sets. Definitly picking this up soon! Quote
Forresto Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 I love the bottom window feature so the pilot can actually see the ground, as opposed to the FO transport (it's a different design for a different era I know). Fantastic set! Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Thanks for the review! Am I the only one who can't stop thinking Cassian looks like Aragorn (the minifigs)? Quote
KevinYoung Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Looking forward to all the RO sets they look fantastic!!! Quote
michaelozzie Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Thanks for the review. Really undecided on getting this one. Krennic's shuttle is my number 1 to get so far. Quote
FTG Prime Posted September 29, 2016 Posted September 29, 2016 Great review !! Looking forward to the rest of the wave Quote
MysticModulus Posted October 2, 2016 Posted October 2, 2016 I seem to be the only person in the world not liking the look of the U-wing. It's bland, uninspiring and looks like a blocky mess. I on the other hand love the look of the TIE Striker although I admit it's overpriced it's the best looking set in this wave apart from Krennics shuttle. Quote

I wasn't too fond of it either based on pictures, I only bought it because I could snag it at a pretty good price at 20% discount, but I regret nothing. IRL it's pretty good looking. Yeah the lower part is kind of chunky, but based on LEGO priorities, it's probably the best they could come up with. Quote

Fair enough I guess, I'm probably still going to pass on it. I put the last stretch of my budget on the Porsche and the Retro Batcave (both were 50 % off). Quote
brobert Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 Porsche 50% off???? WOW. I don't blame you for passing on this then :D Quote
