42 pieces, no minifig, and LEGO® still had the audacity to charge what they charged for this thing. The Resistance X-wing is a D-grade polybag masquerading as a real set.
The parts alone are worth about 63% of the street price — the basis for this D price read.
OverpricedYou're paying well above the parts' value — $2 of parts for a $3 price.
The X-wing is one of the most iconic ships in all of Star Wars, and somehow LEGO® managed to make it feel disposable. With 42 pieces and zero minifigs, this set offers almost nothing in the way of build satisfaction or display payoff. The model looks thin and skeletal on a shelf — you can see right through it, and not in an artistic way. For what you're paying, the value case simply collapses before you can even make one. It's the kind of set that exists because the license exists, not because anyone had a great idea. There are a dozen better ways to own a LEGO® X-wing, and most of them cost less than twice this with five times the set.
