$240 for the X-wing is the cruelest joke in the Star Wars aisle — two minifigs, a ship you've seen a dozen times, and a price tag that belongs on something twice as ambitious.
The parts alone are worth about 122% of the street price — the basis for this D price read.
BargainThe parts alone are worth more than you pay — $285 of parts for $234.
The X-wing is LEGO® Star Wars royalty, which makes this version's C- sting a little extra. At $240 it should be an event — instead it lands as a very large version of a set we've already bought, in some form, practically every year. The build is solid without being clever, and the finished model has legitimate shelf presence, but nothing here justifies the premium over what came before. Two minifigs at this price point is a gut punch, full stop. LEGO® clearly bet on the name carrying the water, and for most fans, the name alone isn't enough anymore. If you need an X-wing in your collection and this is your first, fine — but veterans will feel every dollar of the gap between what this costs and what it delivers.
