I've had my 2018 Y-Wing sitting in the box since I got it. This convinced me to crack that baby open and finally build it.

I honestly don’t understand how it’s a question, the 2018 is just a level above It’s way more aesthetically pleasing

[@dodgerfloof7424]

Agreed

[@rechacaaosanimes6399]

this is one of the functions of these comparisons: see how design techniques evolve over time

[@jamesmekhael3988]

@@rechacaaosanimes6399 the head is still way too long

[@TheFirstCurse1]

I disagree. The 2004 version looks far superior to me due to the coloring looking nicer (even though it isn't as accurate), the head of it looks better (2016's is too long), and I despise how the technic axles are just exposed on the 2016 model. I'd pay more money to have the 2004 version, but ideally there'll be a better UCS Y-Wing eventually that's somewhat of a combination of the 2.

[@brickstackerstudios6746]

As usual, another awsome video. I never realized how similar these two models actually were until seeing them together like this! Keep up the great work.

[@merlinity3995]

I love your vids and I was thinking of buying a y wing so this really helps thnx

[@Spamman4587]

One thing to also note and I'm sure it's probably been discussed, the 2018 model is MUCH more accurate color wise to the original movies as well as to the Galoob Action Fleet models from 1995-1996.

[@jankostelec624]

Honestly both of those look really good

[@AlaLoupeQC]

The 2018 version seems like the Red-5 edition of its kind. The 2013 UCS X-Wing still looks incredible to this day and the UCS sets, in my opinion, need to stand the test of time and the same should be said non-UCS kits that still represent the same concept (Batmobile, Helicarrier). The 2004 version was in the early years of the brand, 5 years after the first Star Wars sets... so the 2018 version shows how much progress we've done since then.

[@jacor653]

The 2018 version is actually roughly minifigure scale.

[@finncoppack]

Yeah, I’m pretty sure it is

[@saltyseahorse6526]

2018 is sleeker and better but the 2004 y wing is extremely nostalgic

[@WAV074]

your comparison sets are the best!! MORE PLZZZZZ???:)

[@virgilthemob1242]

After watching this I gave up on the idea of getting an A Wing and I managed to score a Y Wing a LEGO store still had in stock. It's a fantastic model and the build was pretty fun and interesting.

[@enigmaronin2498]

Can't wait for the next vlog

[@tek.t0k]

that 2004 model really looks ahead of its time (bar the cockpit stickers), if you said it was maybe 6/7 years old it would be believable

[@santihernandez140]

I still can't get over how they didn't print the slanted side of the cockpit despite printing the rest of it

[@fremrdeadflame3455]

They are amazing and great, I bought the battle on mustafar set instead of the star killer set and the ros a wing

I wasn’t even interested in either. Got the 2018 I think for a promotion then found one at Fred’s for $40. My son built it and he thoroughly enjoyed the detail that went in to it and I was surprised at how nice it looked. It’s on the shelf in the office now and I hadn’t even planned on keeping it before

I don’t really like how the 2018’s engines droop a little bit but it’s still cool

[@donkeybutter4460]

When I saw the thumbnail I thought why the heck is comparing the same thing

[@PenPlays]

The best part of having them both is displaying them both as they’re based off of two completely different Y-wings in the canon. Can’t say that about the X-wing

[@TheFirstCurse1]

They are?

[@TheFirstCurse1]

Plus there have been different models of playscale X-Wing, but the sequel trilogy version isn't canon so that doesn't count I guess.

[@Shane-oj7zz]

These are both great sets, I have the 2018 set. Its great! Keep making great content ryan. You have inspired me to make my own lego youtube channel. Keep it up:)

[@humantaco5353]

Question if you had a set from the new clone wars season what’s would it be

[@saxmemes4084]

Human Taco I know it’s not directed towards me, but I would say an At-Te from the last episode with a few 332nd troopers, a few deathwatch and mandalorians, Ahsoka, Maul, Bo-Karan, and Rex. I know that’s probably really impractical as that’s a lot of mini figures but I think It would be really cool

[@humantaco5353]

SaxMemes I was thinking of that thanks for taking the time out of your day to answer my question!

[@saxmemes4084]

Human Taco no problem and I’m glad you agree with it.

[@captaincorsair4176]

My thing

[@tam2237]

I’m sorry but the new one is much better looking than the old one, the colors work together much better, I can’t tell if they also used orange or just an ugly light brown for some of the details on the old one.

[@themainnerd0566]

they need to bring back the y wing ucs...

[@elifolgun7709]

You mentioned technology was not there, but still back in the day they had very unique moulds that would hold up.

[@tanekheath5323]

Both those sets are awesome

The front parts aren't blasters,they are proton torpedo launchers. The turret is the only blaster

[@jetbricksstudios5530]

Do you think the ucs Gunship will have more playability or displayability

[@willbegone_]

I can't be the only one who actually plays with the UCS sets

[@Ethan-ni8yv]

You should do a comparison of every Jedi starfighter (Anakin's, Ahsokas, plo koons, yodas, etc.) as a mega comparison!

[@JudasMahorn]

Here’s to hoping we get a republic y wing in the future

[@UI_Shaggy05]

These Y-wings ARE minifigure scale, because the Y-wing is supposed to be 23.4 meters in length, and 16.4 meters wide.

[@PolybagPat]

I’m liking the first glance appeal of the original, but the detail of the newer takes the cake!

You should make a comparision with all the sith infiltrators you have

[@emersonpereira5777]

MandR, you should compare all sith infiltrators

[@alecdl08]

I’d get the 2018 one because it’s just generally better looking. I don’t care if I can save $40 by buying a crappy version of the good one, I’d rather buy the good one👹

[@wojciechkostrzewa19]

Ryan can you do an a-wing comparison

[@Meme-rh8ow]

If i would say i would rather to buy the 2018 version

[@qwerty-cs4pv]

Ryan, i feel you should give inflation and piece count a smaller part of your opinion because older sets are built and priced for the time, not for the future.

[@elifolgun7709]

Short answer: the old one is ultra detailed, but not so clean. The new one js clean and detailed, yet not as detailed as old one.

[@avgvtismaximvs3181]

Great vid

[@ereder1476]

i prefer the 2004. it have detaul were it matters. the machinery looks more "curde" akin to the movies on the 2004. while the newer version looks way too slick and polished. might as well cover the hole engine up ...

[@ljketchersid5808]

[@aidangarciasadler5607]

I kinda like the tubing on the engines 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@t.g.b.1164]

Like most remakes of UCS sets, the 2018 Y-Wing is better.

[@pastolio4225]

Lovely

[@joefox6000]

Pretty sure the white on 2004 is actually more accurate.

[@apprenricebrickoflegend]

That's a really good UCS set for 2004!

[@aydenjenkins8760]

I personally like the 2004 version more. The colors look more accurate imo. Also both models aren't Minifigure scale by any means, so having a bigger cockpit seat fits the older model better. Also, I don't see an issue with having no landing gear. It doesn't look that good when displayed without the stand.

[@mreggs3731]

that is nostalgia talking

[@ic7846]

I like the 2004 design better overall, the greebling just looks better, outside of (like you said) the cockpit. The 2018 version has a much better looking cockpit

[@JBBrickFanatic]

I definitely think the new one is better. Should have gotten it now that the a-wing is coming out.... sigh

[@averycursedboi273]

I got the 2018 Y-wing non UCS

[@NikhilKumar-vn4nc]

The center area for the old one is very messy while in the newer one it’s a lot cleaner

[@NoMoYOUsernames]

The tubes on the older one looks to be more rigid? And the cockpit on the new one look a little narrow to me? It looks like it should be just a little bit wider. Both great sets though, the 2004 was amazing for its time, but the landing gear and over all build quality looks to be 2018 ftw.

[@christophernearing3774]

1) you forgot to put the poll at the top 2) I wonder if you could add a category that compares each set, based on the time period. I feel like a lot of your comparison has the newer one winning because of upgrades techniques and brick choices. For instance, if you were to compare a 1960 mustang to a 2020 mustang the newer one would win with better stats all day, just because thats how progress works. I think what Im saying is rate the set based on the time period. That Y wing is gorgeous for the early 2000s 3) And make a judgement on whether to buy each set NOW. LIke 400$ for the old Y wing is not worth it when the new one is just 200$. I feel thats a better comparison cuz we dont live in an "ideal world where both are available on shelves at the same time. "
