This set is good and I recommend this to anyone who needs a set for a space battle. The 2 minifigs have there classic Lego minifig smile. Pretty much every Lego air vehicle is swooshable, except for the UCS sets. The cockpit opens well. This set comes with a yellow trolley too, which I think is cute and playable, its even easy to build. The A-Wing pilot's helmet is detailed. For young people, this set is swooshable, and I think younger people will love to play with the trolley. The trolley is a good thing to play with when your bored. Buy this set if you havent.

When I first saw this set waaaaay back in 2006, I was impressed by its sleek shape, good piece-to-price ratio, and its nice color. I got it for my birthday that same year, and after building it, I was astounded at what an amazing set it was, and, still is!

First off, this set just plain looks cool. With its sleek exterior, clever coloring, and well designed shape, its probably one of the most accurate looking SW sets LEGO has released to date. I also like how the designers managed to create a nice, angular shape without compromising the sturdieness of the set, which is a great plus. Trust me, this set looks much better than the old version, which was horridly mishapen and was a dreadful red color; however, you can't really blame the designers, as they didn't have a wide variety of pieces. My only complaint with the look of the new set is the innacuracy of the blaster cannons: they are too big, and are merely a rehashed version of the X-wing's laser cannon. Also, the inclusion of stickers is annoying, as many will point out; mine are beginning to peel after nearly 4 years of service, but that is to be expected. Overall, this set looks perfectly movie accurate (minus the guns) and is sure to take center stage with your other Rebel starfighters.

The build is a nice experience: not too easy, yet just hard enough for you too feel challanged. It's not as exciting as some other sets, but it gets the job done. I was a little disapointed LEGO coudn't find a way to put a folding landing gear into the set; instead, a little table-like piece (sorry, not very good with piece names) is included. However, the pieces themselves are a great blend: the "Republic Red" pieces and sloped white pieces are great for MOC builders who have a thing for the Galactic Republic, and the little targeting computer, locked on to the bridge of the SSD Executor, is a fabulous touch. I would recommend buying just this single piece off a LEGO site; its that cool!

As far as playability goes, this set delivers a solid performance. You can open the cockpit, take out the cargo container, mess around with the little repulser-vehicle, and swing the guns to your heart's content. The set is incredibly sturdy, and you can zip it around your house for hours without risk of damage. The minifigures are nothing fancy, but they look good; I'm very pleased they included a Rebel mechanic, like the previous set. This set is also a perfect opponent for its arch-nemesis set, the 6206 TIE Interceptor. And at only $16 US dollars for a whopping 194-pieces, its price is perfect! My only complaint here is that in the 2006 Summer catalogue, the description said: "Includes container with supplies." However, there is no supplies for the container, making me feel a little sad:( I think a little wrench or blaster might have "spiced" this set up a little bit more. On to the pros and cons!

Pros:

• -Great looking shape and movie-accurate
• -Great pieces (Targeting computer! Yay!)
• -Excellent playability
• -Price is perfect for a 194-piece set
• -Swooshable and a great TIE opponent
• -Nice figs

Cons:

• -Guns are a bit big
• -Stickers
• -No landing gear
• -Lack of accesories

The bottom line? Get this set. I have tons of SW sets, but this one holds a special place in my heart, and just as importantly, my LEGO shelf! An instant classic, I would highly recommend this set to any true Star Wars fan! It gets a solid "A" from me! ;)

This, like the V-wing, doesn't look like an A. Well, I guess from the top it does... Kinda.
Anyways, I'll start with the cart. It's kinda out of place, but it's O.K.
The A-Wing is a brilliant model, though a little bare. The cockpit is roomy and the pilot easily fits inside. As with most ships it has landing gear. It doesn't really have wings, but instead, cannons that can swivel up and down. It does however have some up-facing wings with the engines in the back. The front isn't much. It has some nice detail, though even if they are stickers. I think they look cool.
In the end, a good-great set. I have to rate it a 4 1/2 out of 5. The simplistic design and lack of detail marks it down, but I do recommend it. It's a nice edition to the collection.

Ill start off saying that this is my favorite small (under $50) lego set I have in my collection. The speeder& mechanic definitely add to the value of the set, and matches the base in the B-Wing.

The starfighter is very sleek, and is extremely sturdy. The printed control panel inside depicts a off centered star destroyer bridge, and that is unique to this set. There are no flaws in either of the items. I dont like how the ladder on the speeder dosent go all the way down, but that does not change the sets value. With the very cheap price, this set gets a 6/5! Grab it if you can! The price might be more expensive now, but it is definitely worth around $25.

Nothing much to say so I'll skip to the pros and cons

Pros:
cool train
Good design
Awesome minifigs
Not many stickers
inexpensive

cons:
NO CONS

overall this is a Must Buy. It goes great with the B-wing and has many accessories to use.
