I don't get why people would get upset about changes to the design. The movie takes place 30 years after Return Of The Jedi. Car models from 30 years ago look drastically different today.

[@rokdri9983]

I think is just nostalgic feelings

[@Nein..]

+Rokdri Dragonium I think it's just the narrow-minded side of people that don't realize that you need to do changes do create something new. New movie trilogy, new X-Wings. It's that easy :D

[@TimTams_64]

+NJM Punk Not to mention that in every movie a generational change in ship design took place,

[@rokdri9983]

+Nein. so true, i like more this than the old one

[@nzekwefiction]

Some people are just having trouble taking off their nostalgia goggles.

[@dtinagliastudios]

How dare you insult that ladder! It's construction is SO much better than the X-Wings

[@DruncWizard]

lol its all awesome in my eyes. (O_O)

[@Miniondanny]

Lol

[@spunskater]

+DTinaglia Studios LOL :)

[@WilliamKrogsdale]

I totally agree

[@MrBioniclefan1]

+DTinaglia Studios LOL ladders are one of the coolest things.

[@Jormunheim]

R.I.P Poes X-wing, blown up in the hanger 2015-2017

[@blipblop9158]

123Kbob R.I.P

[@iamatomato9878]

Rip

[@speedrunn4321]

R.I.P. I'm happy noone cares about Tallie Lintra's death in the same scene. She was SO unnecessary. Welp, at least Poe isn't death.

[@BennyLlama39]

And the one blown up by stormtroopers in The Force Awakens.

[@viktorvokhmin1343]

Rip poes 2nd xwing

[@hokage64th]

The BEST Sequel Trilogy Lego set yet. Until they make a complete version of the First Order AT-ST MK2 in my opinion lol. Not the headless BB-8 one.

[@pence116]

" Instead, it'll just hold little mister ball" I started to laugh, good work Jang!

[@capnmuphy2021]

I was always a moderate x wing fan, but I became a huge fan of this set when I bought it and put it together. It even looks better and is more fun than the Hasbro version for action figures. I just wish they would have included black rubber bands (my only complaint about this set)

[@LXW-Arts]

Ben use a black marker

[@hijweintheworld6546]

R.I.P. poe's x-wing

[@yachiyous9110]

Hijwe In The World in the movie? Yes along with the mon calamari cruiser

[@vilaskadival]

I guess he'll get a new one in the next

[@vimovies5727]

Maybe a T-85 instead of his old T-70

[@muisverriet]

This is a great set. Lego's Force Awakens sets are great in general (Grievous)

[@goldgabich6863]

I see what ya did there

[@cassrobinparker9065]

A fellow Area 11 fan, I see!

[@muisverriet]

***** Hi there :)

[@osrea8924]

+Jarmo Verriet gg

[@R0bert_27]

just finished building the set, just looks flat out amazing! i love the black and orange color's (don't mind the blue rubber bands as much) great size, great build, the spring launchers are perfectly integrated. no complaints from me!

[@Pinoccappuccino]

The aurebesh on Poe and the other pilot's helmets respectively say "roaehal" and "mother".

[@corbinb6786]

I want Lego to make an original trilogy x wing again

[@anthony5528]

Same

[@jubaulttom4435]

I want blue leader instead of a plane red and white one

[@raymondhernandez8859]

LITTLE MISTER BALL!? Are you kidding me!? BB8 is THE MAN don’t disrespect him like that!! Lol love the videos man keep them coming :)

[@im3ve1yn]

1. on the side of the unnamed pilot's helmet, it reads "Mother" 2. the groundcrew (Goss Toowers ) is my favorite minifigure and sw character of all time

[@chummybuttons3822]

Really? Goss Toowers, a ground crew member, is your favorite Star Wars character of ALL TIME? Whatever floats your boat I guess

[@Rosie-fx1rp]

Got it for xmas I celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve

[@thewanandonly7023]

TCuzerr Will i got the grey one

[@allenrice6719]

Thanks for the great review! I was on the fence about this, but I gotta get it now! Keep up the great work 👍🏼

[@sjimmiea]

Hey man, I just wanted to tell you that I absolutely love your videos. You've gotten me into Lego again after so many years!

[@markgreenough8602]

I was just about to build mine and saw your review was up...now I'm even more excited! I love the printed canopy and those helmets. With my Sphero BB-8 sitting here beside me, life is good : D

[@RichestManInTatooine]

My favorite Lego X-Wing. Great review!

[@pasqualethepro9386]

i like the blue one better because the rubber band color makes more sense.

[@MyBricks4you]

Absolutely love it. It's the one out of this first wave that I'm buying right now, great review Jang!

[@georgentogkas6952]

In the actual star wars universe, this X-wing is another model that was made a little after the original design was made.

[@denoutlander]

Love the look of this, just ordered one, can't wait until it gets here!

[@SgtKaito]

That was the most beautiful speech I've ever heard about your x wing story. I'm tearing up.

[@PhatenMosa]

I'm pleasingly surprised by this set. It looks nice, and I particularly like the fact there are 3 minifigs included!

[@jx592]

I made a choice... It was either Poes X wing or the Resistance fighter... I chose the other one! :'( got it for 50 bucks tho

[@dantefrati1313]

I got it today... looks amazing

[@monkeyeli1325]

Cool video

[@Quote_ation]

Poe's head would have been a better Paul Rudd for the offical Antman minifig. :(

[@masterbuilderproductions8748]

That is true but Dastan's head from prince of persia works well also and it is a whole lot cheaper to obtain also!

[@LegoStingray]

7:28 Possibly the best quote ever said by Jang.

[@kiwikicker9263]

You know an X-Wing is good when you can feel it in your throat XD

[@BlizzAz]

Looks like a big ol' slice of awesome to me. Great review.

[@smoovoperata3242]

I want this! Po is the man

[@account-yj9ub]

follow the instructions carefully. my s foils cant go into attack position

[@ssnyderu2]

Great video! I really like the black and orange color scheme. I think this will be my Christmas gift to myself.

[@TheDJKrab]

when I'm bored I watch your videos and they always make my day

[@nheeson7075]

Illuminati?

[@martinhill9561]

they should've used print for ALL lego pieces. HATE stickers!!! wish they'd get rid of them...

[@Solarstar10]

I know how you feel. The only thing is, that it costs lego much more to make printed pieces. Which would then just make the prices of sets go up. So I can understand why they have to go with stickers.

[@martinhill9561]

of course price goes up. its called quality. i understand the reasoning just don't agree with it.

[@JonA-rd9jr]

in some places I prefer stickers. they can be removed so you have the option of using the piece without them or you can put them on a different piece and they make the sets cheaper.

[@martinhill9561]

i don't mind paying more for higher quality. i don't like stickers because of how often they can get messed up in so many different ways and they don't last nearly as long as print. it looks much better too.

[@martinhill9561]

i don't see how that would reduce usability. if anything it adds. removing stickers can rip them making it look messy and un-immersive when put back on. and lego makes both printed and non-printed molds of the same thing. why bother with stickers in the first place if people aren't going to use them? that's literally throwing money away; might as well print it on. at least then you know your getting your money's worth. which brings me to my earlier point. yeah the cost is going to go up because your paying for higher quality. i see no problem with that. what were paying for right now are cheap stickers anyone can replicate and sell as lego for a higher price than what it really is.

[@danielcollins7347]

The moulding and design of the pilots helmets are fab!!!!

[@arkham.j.republic3299]

jang your vids are awsome keep up the good work!!🙌

[@ryandamelio5637]

I'm going to buy this set and the first order tie fighter and I wanted to see reviews about them. These look like GREAT sets! Great reviews!

[@Daniel39096]

Nice Review Jang!

[@thomdouglas9273]

Oh my. I might dare to say that this is my favorite version of the X-Wing that LEGO has done to this date... Love the "new" design, and the colors fit my aesthetic taste quite well also. The curves and angles on this just make me giddy, definitely the first thing I'm getting after I get my paycheck.

[@chummybuttons3822]

The X-Wings remind me so much of the British Spitfire

[@jacobparvin9882]

I like the orange and black one a lot better than the white one. Just my opinion!

[@jacobparvin9882]

Probably 'cause it looks really good next to mini version!

[@karizafabian6977]

Me too

[@i82ringochan]

+Mathias Pepin-Leduc The new other white and blue resistance x-wing are also T70

[@coldfusioneer]

Hey Jang. Always enjoy watching your show. Looking forward to watching your comparison with new blue x-wing.

[@tuklaw1]

i'm hauling the FA sets 'coz of you Jang! :) Best Star Wars wave so far including the buildables. Appreciate your dedication. Wow, non-stop reveiw!

[@jeromeleake8441]

Little Mr Ball Vs Darth Ball

[@ndnomar5640]

I have this set and it is absolutely one of the my favorite sets. The color is unique and it definitely looks fantastic on my shelf.

[@tatsuyah4695]

The most anticipated part of building a Lego X-Wing for me is at the end, when I'm done and can open up the S-foils. It was true with the first Lego X-Wing and it's still true with the latest Lego Trilogy X-Wing. This is definitely on my to buy list.

[@derpmeister652]

Same for me but my first one was a fail XD I didn't press hard enough on the wing (2013 version) so when I twisted the knob some o the wings split

[@andrewtran4242]

Nice video Jang!

[@The82bstewart]

Just built this set... its nice to have a little change in a really popular star wars ship while still keeping with the overall original look.. i like the new colors myself... I like that it has more pieces then the last... the figures are nice..and it looks great in my opinion.. i really like mine and was glad they did something a little different.. cant wait to see it on the big screen.

[@themakerdrfrankenstein3121]

beautiful ship really like the colors and the look of the design

[@AaronKaiMCDNLD]

They Should've Replaced the Rubber Bands To Black

[@starkindustries5448]

yeah the make them like that why did they do that

[@TommyBNoE]

I'm really liking the mock Star Wars music Jang!

[@TheStimply]

This is the first Star Wars Lego set I purchased, which I got based on this review! Normally I like the City / Creator / Architect sets, but I couldn't resist this great looking design! Excellent review!

[@bobastu]

I believe the utility cart, ground crew, and extra pilot are an omage to the 7140 from 1999. I also seem to remember one of the vehicles from the early years coming with a boarding ladder. Pretty cool his call sign would -5 like Luke. True fans will hearken back to Ralph McQuarrie, and accept this T-70 for what it is...a retro take for a current Incom starship!

[@boswcheydoesart1314]

True fan knowledge like this makes me so happy :D

[@7827727326]

man, you are absolutely right about spinning that gear to give it its x shape.. once you do that it just looks incredible. i wasn't sold on this set because of the colors, but now with it in hand and built, wow, it's really great.

[@poalima6527]

I'm LOVING these blaster pistols!!! Keep it up LEGO!

[@emilycastellano4761]

i am going to get the set and buy black gray or orange rubbber bands

[@MechaDray]

Great Review man!

[@RennArmy]

This is extremely good! Loving the color scheme

[@ToaPaul959]

I'm usually not a big fan of X wings but I really like the changes they made for the new movie and I really like the new set as well as the color scheme. Black and orange looks vibrant. A big problem with a lot of OT sets is that they were almost all grey and boxy while PT had vibrant colors and smooth style. I personally love a lot of PT vehicles way more than OT ones for those reasons. Poe's X-wing and the Special Forces TIE have solved my issues with the originals.

[@Kelkschiz]

When I see this I wish I was a kid again, looks awesome!

[@gammalite]

Thanks for an awesome youtube. My kids loved the detail !

[@NotOrdinaryInGames]

This looks amazing. I don't even care if it's on-model or not, I just love how it looks.

[@zacharywindover9840]

I just started watching your vids but yo I love your vids!

[@ViewMasterMike]

I really like your videos. Thanks for sharing. Lego Star Wars is the best.

[@darrylbroatch862]

I love this set looking forward to seeing the new resistance xwing coming in 2016

[@AcurelyObtuse]

I very much needed to see this review. I love anything X-Wing, but looking at the pictures for this set and not seeing it twirling around in my (read: your) hand, I couldn't tell if I even liked this model. I had my eye on this, but now I know I'd love to have it! :D It looks great and I love the far more accurate canopy piece!

[@theanthemofcreationitself9005]

They could have made the rubber bands black

[@landlighterfirestar5550]

Becuz LEGO lives in the past with some of its rules 🤪

[@moleratboi7459]

"Little Mister Ball"😂😂😂😂😂 I have no idea why that is so funny to me

[@thomasmarsh2863]

Awesome set I like the droid and the star fighter especially

[@seirgioproductions528]

I love this set so much I am goning to get one of these for christmas

[@aaron90crx]

like I saywith every other review, great job. I didn't know that this t-70 was based off the original t-65 x wing concept! appreciated that history lesson. cheers!

[@brad34718]

I got this and the speeder yesterday the sets are great in every way

[@Pongowl]

There were croissants in the Parisan restaurant and the town hall, unikitty tails and bionicle fists in the detective's office; I predict that the next modular will use recolored bb-8 parts for some sort of decoration.

[@leakycheese]

Great review thank you! I agree that this is a really nice take on the classic X-Wing design and, in some ways, improves on it. Finally we have a canopy with the correct lines and the engine nacelles harking back to Ralph McQuarrie concept art (later the Z-95 Headhunter) have a sleeker, more aerodynamic look than the cylindrical engine pods on the original trilogy version.

[@battlefieldcustoms873]

i just bought my 2nd one. I am collecting X wings like crazy. JANG is so so right about that choke up feeling when seeing these ships. I just love X wings so much even though I am an Empire fan I just love the ships so much. I now have 2 Poe X Wings, 3 Original X wings. and 1 white X wing that is fairly old. i’m excited to see this new 2018 version to add to the collection!

[@iamatomato9878]

Dude you have two

[@speedrunn4321]

I have the new one

[@KrillLiberator]

It's a beautiful thing - yyyeah apart from the elastic. I just so wish I hadn't seen that, but I adore the colour, it's so boy-racerish and rock'n'roll; just what an ace pilot's fighter should be like. (WWI centenary; Richtofen's Flying Circus and all that anyone?) Thanks for this preview Jang; I like it when someone emotes all over a 'machine' in that manner.

[@christhepotato]

Jang, You really did a grat job of polishing this ship up and making it shiny! Other wise you you wear gloves when you put this together. Great review!

[@esposc94]

I got mine, can't wait to build it

[@theonewiththename5867]

In love with the color scheme, bought it but have yet to build it military training has kept me away from home got this plus like 10 other sets waiting for me back home

[@MG-ls4eu]

Did you build them yet?

[@aryaanjeelani6950]

Thank you for your service (no sarcasm intended at all)

[@robertjiji825]

Without a doubt one of the best looking lego set in my opinion

[@MechaDray]

Funny how the extra face on Poe makes it realistic when he wearing his helmet with a little bit of hair on the rear haha.

[@aaronk8179]

Can not wait for the blue and grey one coming out in the summer!!! 😀

[@LegoSteelFilms]

Really good review. Keep up the good work😀

[@markcroft100]

Bought mine yesterday and completed it today, I have to say I am really impressed. The colour of the piece is great, really makes it stand out and it's put together really well. If I had to pick one judgemental thing it would be the elastic bands, I wish these were black or orange to blend in with the ship. I personally think the price is in the right area 3 minifigs & BB8 also props. I'm happy :)

[@MrDflego]

I agree, this set is killer. Gonna get it for sure.

[@The82bstewart]

My only complaint would be that I wish they would of made the rubber bands black instead of blue..

[@marcch72]

at first I didn't like this version but watching your video and knowing that it's based on the original concept art makes this a good set.

[@Piepmatsu]

I agree! Bought it today, will build it tomorrow and I love it, at least like I love the last X-Wing set. :D

[@EyesOfTheInternet]

I got this set yesterday. I'm surprised by how much the X-Wing is to scale compared to the mini fig.

[@angelahernandez2064]

sweet set jang

[@rightfulsnowgaming61]

Jang I like the fact that Lego is thinking about the kids but honestly most kids can use there imagination.when they do they are using their creative part of their brains

[@jacobholcomb7547]

Could you compare this to the original X-wing from a few years ago

[@echonoir4418]

I love this black and orange colour scheme and I have been a star wars fan from the original trilogy

[@JediOrder14]

I like this set alot

[@beastandfeast69]

Went to a yard sale the other day and there was a box of legos that was marked as the super secret police gunship set from the lego movie, it was $35 and i talked them down to $15, i got home opened it up and there was the super secret police gunship set and this set inside. No mini figs except bb-8 and almost all pieces were there to both set. I think i have the part to finish it 🤗 going to look great next to my U-wing!!

[@darreideamos2309]

Wowokwowok PSN for 15 dollars? You lucky man

[@danielcollins7347]

The designs on those pilot helmets though!!! 0o0

[@sonicguyver7445]

There are things in this world you can never do too much of and one of them is playing the PC X-Wing game.

[@louisdoherty1480]

Jang, I took a black sharpie and blacked out the blue rubber bands. I don't know if you are the type of person that would paint a Lego element but it works. You could also go with a high gloss black spray paint, and apply it lightly as not to stiffen the band.

[@pripdipstick]

The crew loading ladder is underrated, HE DESERVES BETTER!

[@whovisgundamshenanigans8220]

That is a work of BEAUTY
