It is also in my top 3.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"2\">When I was able LEGO 75155 Rebel-U-wing Fighter, I had just completed my Rogue One set collection.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"3\">Because of its unique appearance and originality, the U-wing is one the most impressive ship designs from the Disney Era.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"7\">Visually, the ship looks a lot like the X-wings or Y-wings in the original trilogy. It is also a mix of both.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"6\">The craft&#8217;s main body is similar to a Ywing, and it has 4 large engine pods.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"4\">The set captures the look of onscreen craft very well. The minifigure selection is also fantastic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"22\">The U-wing, a troop transport, can be seen in universe deploying rebel troops across the galaxy. We most often see it in &#8220;Rogue One&#8221;, &#8220;Star Wars Rebels&#8221;, and a few other comics, video games, novels and comics.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"19\">It also serves as a support role by providing oversight for ground forces. The troop bay can be opened and one of its crew members can act as a door gunner, covering fire for troops below.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"5\">This is evident in &#8220;Rogue One&#8221;, where a Uwing defeats an AT-ACT Walker.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"10\">Incom corporation produced the ship. It features two wing-like Sfoils that can be placed forward or backward depending on the situation.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"18\">The S-foils can be angled backwards in combat situations to increase the surface area of the ship\u2019s shields and radiate excess heat from its core.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"15\">This flight configuration was reserved for interstellar operations as it is difficult to operate in variable weather conditions, such as atmospheric combat.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"21\">For offensive capabilities, U-wings could also be equipped with two fixed-position KX7 laser guns on their nose sections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"16\">As usual, I&#8217;ll start with some information about it and then proceed to the review.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"14\"><strong>Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Rebel-U-wing Fighter<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"13\"><strong>Set Number<\/strong>\u00a075155<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"12\"><strong>Year:<\/strong>\u00a02016,<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"8\"><strong>RRP:<\/strong>\u00a0PS74.99<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"9\"><strong>Pieces:<\/strong>\u00a0659<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"17\"><strong>Star Wars Theme:<\/strong>\u00a0Star Wars<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"11\"><strong>Minifigures:<\/strong>\u00a05<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"20\">LEGO 75155 Minifigures<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"26\">I will start with the miniature figures, then move on to the actual build.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"23\">First,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.firestartoys.com\/Search\/?Query=jyn+erso\">Jyn Erso<\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"31\">This figure is fantastic. The torso print matches the shirt\/jacket combination she wears throughout most of the film.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"24\">The print is richly detailed with stitching, pocket detailing and creases.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"32\">A soft cloth poncho is included with the figure. She wears it during scenes on Eadu about halfway through the movie.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"27\">This costume is evidently the inspiration for her hat\/hairpiece.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"30\">The mould is excellent and includes the goggles that are usually worn by Hoth rebels attached to it.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"29\">The cap also has a microphone at the side, which is visible in the film.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"28\">The jacket and gloved hands are dark tan in colour.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-212\" src=\"http:\/\/www.homeimprovementneed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/jyn-torso-300x225-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"37\">It does a good job replicating Felicity Jones&#8217; appearance. You can see that it is JynErso by just looking at the figure.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"34\">The legs are black and could have been printed with the belt\/holster that she wears throughout the film.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"39\">A reddish brown bag is also hers, which she reused from Indiana Jones. It&#8217;s nice to see it again.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"38\">This figure is very well made, and makes a great addition to any collection. It is also unique to this set.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"25\"><strong>8\/10<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"36\">Next we have\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.firestartoys.com\/Search\/?Query=cassian+andor\">Cassian andor<\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"41\">This figure is based upon the costume he wears when attempting to find Saw Gerrera.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"35\">This figure captures the look and details of his large coat.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"42\">The fur is printed on the collar and sides of the torso, along with pockets and other pouch details.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"40\">With the fabric folds and pouch prints, the print extends to the legs.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"46\">The print only covers the front of the legs. It doesn&#8217;t wrap around the entire top of the legs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-213\" src=\"http:\/\/www.homeimprovementneed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sw0790-225x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.homeimprovementneed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sw0790-225x300.png 225w, http:\/\/www.homeimprovementneed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sw0790.png 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"47\">Face prints that resemble Diego Luna well include smirking expressions and passive expressions.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"45\">Although the dark brown hair looks very generic, it is the right style and works well.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"54\">Overall, this figure is quite nice. The leg printing could have been better, but it&#8217;s still a solid figure for a first costume.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"33\"><strong>8\/10<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"43\">Next is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.firestartoys.com\/Search\/?Query=bistan\">Bistan<\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"59\">This character appears briefly in the film, as a door gunner on a u-wing at battle of Scarif. He also destroys an AT-ACT.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"48\">The jumpsuit is modeled by this figure and extends to his legs.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"56\">It works well with the dark green and olive green, and the details on his straps are excellent.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"52\">Bistan&#8217;s head features a 360O print and is made from a brand new mould.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"50\">His face is exactly the same as the one onscreen.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"53\">He has good hair, with some bald spots just like the &#8220;real&#8221; character.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"49\">The neck ring is also good and features dark pearl grey prints.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"58\">Bistan, despite only being briefly seen, is a fan favorite and the figure does justice to the character.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"57\">This figure is a great addition to any rebel alliance army. It adds variety and appeal.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"51\">This figure is exclusive to the set, which adds to its appeal.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"44\"><strong>9\/10<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"66\">The Rebel alliance trooper is next. He is based on Eskro Casrich, a background character that we briefly see on Scarif.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"73\">This figure, although a little known like Bistan is still quite impressive. He has an olive-green body with grey pouches, and a brown section in the combat jacket.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"62\">There are pouches at the tops of the dark tan legs and stripes on the knees.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"64\">These legs are very similar to those found on Rebels in the Rogue One set.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"61\">Although the face is generic and has been seen many times before, it fits the character well.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"77\">The helmet mould he is wearing was reused by the Cloud Car pilots in 75222 Betrayal of Cloud City set, but it was in white.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"63\">This set is in dark tan with dark green printing at the top.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"68\">The helmet has grey print on the ears and a small logo in yellow on the side.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"71\">The figure is very sleek because the colours are all coordinated and the color scheme is consistent.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"67\">This figure looks great with the rebels of the Rogue One wave.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"84\">This trooper, much like Bistan is a great addition in the ranks of rebel troopers. It also adds some variety to the main rebel troopers that we get.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"55\"><strong>8\/10<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"65\">The Blue Squadron Pilot is the last figure.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"85\">This figure was included in both the U-wing as well as the 75172 Ywing. He is not exclusive, but he is still an excellent pilot figure.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"74\">The regular pilot head LEGO used has been on his head for some time, but it&#8217;s fine here.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"90\">The helmet&#8217;s front section has a chequered pattern that is similar to the one Biggs Darklighter wears in &#8220;A New Hope&#8221;, but in black-and-white.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"91\">Although the torso and legs were reused for other sets in this wave, they are a refreshing change from the orange jumpsuits worn by regular pilots.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"98\">Although the control box is still visible on the chest, the print&#8217;s dark blue jumpsuit makes it appear more sleek than usual. Perhaps it&#8217;s because it has a darker colour, which makes it seem more real.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"78\">It&#8217;s a fantastic figure, but it would have been nice to have a unique helmet print.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"60\"><strong>7\/10<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"69\">LEGO 75155 Build<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"93\">It doesn&#8217;t have any side builds. The U-wing is the only model in the set. This ship is a fantastic recreation of the one seen on the screen.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"83\">While the U-wing recreates the spirit of the vehicles in the original trilogy, it also brings something new to the table.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"72\">This LEGO model captures the feeling perfectly.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"88\">It is play-scale so it is a little smaller than the minifigure size, but it is still quite large and contains all the necessary details.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"75\">It was fun to build, and the final result is fantastic.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"76\">The colour scheme matches the Rogue One craft in the film.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"96\">The ship&#8217;s overall appearance is enhanced by the yellow and blue highlights. They also tie in the stickers to its main brick-built sections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"86\">The ship is constructed in two parts, and then assembled at the end.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"95\">The upper part of the craft is where you start, and then the main hull as well as the S-foils are built.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"79\">The troop bay and interior of the cockpit are then built.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"82\">Next, the two halves are connected using pins and technic beams.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"81\">The ship is now quite strong and can be moved around without fear.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"97\">The sub-section makes use of the 10240 UCSX-wing window canopy to create the troop bay window that we see on our in-universe ship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"92\">The wings are built the same way, with some exceptions to the sticker application and plate detailing at the top sections.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"80\">They are mirrored in most cases.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"87\">They look great, but perhaps less visible studs would enhance the sleekness.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"89\">The smooth and aerodynamic middle section is free of visible studs.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"103\">The central cockpit uses the common Xwing canopy to cover the play-scale X-wings that we have used in recent years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"113\">Although the troop bay is adequate, it could use a little more space. There is not enough room to accommodate all of Rogue One&#8217;s members comfortably.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"112\">It is possible to make the interior larger with modifications. However, it doesn&#8217;t necessarily require these mods to accommodate the figures without overcrowding them.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"129\">The door gunners are a nice touch. However, they use stud shooters that I don&#8217;t like. You can remove them completely or replace them with more realistic-looking blasters, which is what I did.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"100\">They are easy to open and have great details, even though they were obtained via stickers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"117\">The troop bay has a large grill area at the back that leads to the top section. This is likely to be the radiator section for the engine radiators.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"101\">Just behind the main cockpit, there is a nice textured area with a hint of the hyperdrive.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"99\">The area contains a hand-held claw weapon accessory that can be used in many themes.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"104\">This tiny greeble actually works well and looks almost identical to the original in-universe design.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"106\">You will finish building the four big X-wing-shaped thrusters.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"108\">Two of these are built at a time, and then they are mirrored on the ship&#8217;s back.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"109\">These use the old icepick accessory to replicate the T-shaped intakes on the X-Wing.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"94\">This is a clever use of parts.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"115\">Similar techniques were used for the 10240 UCS and 75218 Playscale X-wings.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"125\">To recreate the blue markings on the ship&#8217;s onscreen screen, the thrusters&#8217; front turbine pieces have two stickers at the top and bottom.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"122\">They could be a bit longer, and perhaps another of the white turbine pieces on each pod would have improved it. But it&#8217;s not too big of an issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"118\">Before I give my final verdict, I will briefly discuss a few of the play features that this set offers.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"102\">First, you can open the wings to attack mode.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"107\">This is a great feature that completely transforms the ship&#8217;s shape.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"119\">This is a great play feature that can also be used as a display option for collectors.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"105\">Although it takes up more space, it looks great.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"111\">Next is the pair spring-loaded shooters at the front.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"116\">They are easily integrated by pressing down on the buttons at the nose.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"120\">You can either remove them or leave them out if you don&#8217;t love them.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"121\">The troop bay has door gunners, which I mentioned earlier.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"126\">If positioned properly, there are two stud shooters that can be placed to shoot out the doors.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"135\">This play feature is a good match for what we see in the movie, but I don\u2019t like stud guns in general so I replaced them by better-looking blaster cannons.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"127\">Although the final feature isn\u2019t really playable, it is worth noting.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"124\">It is difficult to open the cockpit, so LEGO added a small feature behind each canopy.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"133\">You can open the canopy by sliding some 1&#215;1 studs inverted forward. These are part of a system that pushes some technic parts forward.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"134\">This clever LEGO move was smart because the mechanism is hidden. It also allows for the cockpit to be as precise as possible, without the need to be modified to make it more openable.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"114\">Last Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"123\">This set is highly recommended to all Star Wars fans.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"128\">It looks great on display, and the selection of minifigures is excellent.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight active\" data-id=\"132\">The set includes 2 of the main cast, as well as some very memorable and unique characters. 4 exclusive figures are also included.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"130\">It was fun to build, and the play features add to the displayability of the set.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"131\">Although the engines could be a bit larger, it is a fantastic set.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"wordai-block rewrite-block enable-highlight\" data-id=\"110\"><strong>9\/10<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rogue One is a favorite film in the Star Wars Saga.
