The Full Take
The U-wing is one of the cooler ships in the Star Wars universe, which makes this set sting a little. Thirty-seven pieces and zero minifigures is a tough sell at any price point, and LEGO® did not price this generously. There's barely a build here — this is closer to a desk trinket than a set. The D overall isn't a surprise; almost nothing about this package justifies what they charged for it. If you're a U-wing fan, your affection for the ship is doing a lot of heavy lifting.
