Early read · 4 reviews
The Naboo Starfighter is one of Star Wars' most beautiful ships, and cramming it into Microfighter form at ten bucks should be a no-brainer — except LEGO® is charging full Microfighter price for something that delivers half the satisfaction.

The Full Take
The Naboo Starfighter has curves that almost no other Star Wars ship can match, and at the Microfighter scale that elegance gets flattened into something that reads more 'blob with wings' than iconic racer. The love grade sits at B+ because the little Anakin fig is genuinely charming and the set snaps together in a satisfying fifteen minutes — it scratches the itch. But ten dollars for 62 pieces in 2019 was already a stretch, and the F on price says it plainly: this is one of the weaker value propositions in the Microfighter lineup. Display presence is modest at best; it works on a shelf crowded with other Microfighters but won't stop anyone in their tracks alone. For a casual fan or a kid who loves the Phantom Menace, the charm is real — just go in knowing the ship's beauty is mostly in your imagination here.
