Another A-Wing
" I have owned pretty much all the most recent A-Wings (2013, 2016 & 2017). I have to agree with the other reviews on this set compared to the previous sets. (1) Stickers - never good to have too many on a set and especially ones you have to apply to the cockpit. (2) Mini figures - Snap Wexley is an X-Wing pilot so is completely wrong for this set, Tallissan Lintra piloted the resistance A-Wing in The Last Jedi so would have been a better choice, although it would have meant a different colour scheme. Lt Connix is a good choice but for the cost I'd like to have seen another mini figure in there. (3) Cockpit layout - or lack of it really, it's just a big empty space that could have been done so much better with very few extra pieces.
The build is very good and takes some of the best features of the previous iterations rolled into this but I think it lets itself down a little with the colour scheme and mini figure selection.
I know you will look at this as a Resistance A-Wing from the Rise of Skywalker and who knows how it might feature in the film. For me it's just another A-Wing so I'm struggling to fathom it's place unless you put Green Leader in the cockpit and fly it into the bridge of the Executor.
As with all A-Wing sets there is loads of playabilty and the set is sturdy enough for swooshing around chasing down TIE fighters.
