    LEGO Star Wars - Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter - Set 8093 - Review

    Written by (AFOL , rhodium-rated reviewer) in Spain,

    The Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter set (8093) is a LEGO Star Wars set which came out in 2010. It comes with 2 minifigs and 175 pieces. This set does include a few decals and there're no mistakes in the instructions and no missing pieces.


    Minifigures:

    • Plo Koon: Plo Koon has a head which is made out of rubber. He has a blue lightsaber and his basic Jedi torso.
    • R7-D4: This r2 unit is exclusive to this model at the moment. This droid has brown markings on the top, and it's torso is printed brown too.

    Jedi Starfighter:

    The Jedi Starfighter has a very cool design. I like the combination of the white and the blue colours. There're a few decals which you have to put on. On the left side of the picture of the box you can see a handle for the lightsaber. You're able to take off out of the cockpit very easily, and you can see the controls, which reminds me of the scene from Star Wars Episode IV when Luke Skywalker attacked the Death Star. The wings are flexible, and you can also move the landing gear. On the bottom you can see a button which you can push to shoot out the Jedi master. Plo Koon doesn't attach to the pegs, but this makes this feature work. There's also a place to put the r2 unit.

    Positive:

    Minifigures
    Great pieces which you can use for brickfilms or MOCs
    Nice starter set
    Design is attractive
    You can push out Plo Koon!

    Negative:

    Price

    All in all, it's a great set to get, and I would highly recommend you to get this model. You can find this set on eBay and BrickLink for sure. Here is the link where you can check out the full gallery I made for this set on my website: www.klokriecher.de

    A beautiful Starfighter at a fairly affordable price.

    Written by (TFOL , gold-rated reviewer) in Poland,

    I have had this set basically since it was released. I loved it then and I love it now. It is big for it's price, things of similar size can be up to double the price these days. The colour scheme is beautiful, it forms a nice pattern on the fighter similar to the one in the Clone Wars. The shape is very sleek and it has fully retractable landing gear that looks great on the ground and is almost unnoticable in flight mode. The cockpit ejection seat works very well at expelling Plo Koon from the ship quite a long way (and the poor Droid stays behind to die). Despite having to go in sideways, the Astromech fits nicely into it's slot. This fighter has superb swooshability, probably better than any other set I own.
    Pros:

    • Beautiful, sleek starfighter
    • Enjoyable building experience
    • Nice colours
    • Ejection seat works rather well.
    • Landing gear is awesome
    • Nice minifigures
    • Great price.

    Cons:

    • Some stickers.

    If you do not own this set, get it. At an affordable price, you get a ship that's very nice.

    I'm happy.

    Written by (AFOL , bronze-rated reviewer) in United States,

    Never been a big A-wing fan but after building this set I'm leaning towards liking them.  My favorite things about this lego set is the ship itself, the build, and the figures.  I could take this one apart and build it over and over.

    Well designed and easy to construct

    Written by (Parent) in N/A,

    My son, 5 and a half, put this together with very little help from me. He has the LEGO Starwars Wii game and found this a very exciting set to play with. Plo Koon and R7-D4 enhance the authenticity of the design.

    We picked it up at Toys"R"Us for $9.98 after buying another kit. (It was prices at $19.95)
