it’s a huge bummer we didn’t get the orange sabers for baylan and shin tbh! id rather get straight orange blades if the orange red is off the table, rather than pure red.
The E-Wing is my most FAVORITE ship in star wars, I could not believe we were getting an official E-Wing set, this is a must have for me. My only complaint is that the E-Wing is missing it's iconic dorsal cannon. I'm assuming Ahsoka redesigning the E-Wing so you can see the Astromech droid at all times even though it should be in the cockpit with the pilot by original lore. But, my plan is simple. The canopy kinda bulges up a bit, so my plan is to place an add-plot on top of the E-Wing and it'll use the Astromech droid port to slot securely into place. This plate will allow the E-wing to feel more sleek as it levels things out with the tip of the canopy, from there I can add the dorsal cannon easily, bringing the E-Wing to it's full glory.
@@commandernomad2817 Oh yeah, I forgot about that thing. I still feel this one to be kinda the first official E-Wing because they're calling it an E-Wing by name, But man, I forgot about that set, I should pick it up sometime.
Just just discovered your channel and I’ll say it’s refreshing to see a Lego Star Wars reviewer that just doesn’t nit pick every small detail and being negative towards the set etc, but regardless good video awesome too see the E wing is perfect looking.
I never comment on RUclips but I wanted to say how nice it is to have a positive Lego star wars creator, unlike most *cough*(MandR, LifeBricks). Keep it up :)
Can't stand lifebricks and the only reason I watch mandR is cause no one else does comparison reviews or has the volume of sets he has to review. 9/10 if I search a review it's him with an actual dedicated video and some 12 yr old 5 min video of him spinning the toy around saying iz good
I don’t really see the resemblance here for me it looks like they took more inspiration from the xp-50 for shins ship, the e wing however does look like a mashup of a spitfire and Stuka with its sleek superstructure and massive cannons under the wing.
The review will not be early unfortunately! I wanna make that one special so I don’t know when that review will be out, but I think you guys will like it!
I agree. Partly... I really like this set, as well as the new Ghost. But Ahsoka's shuttle? Just, no. They really made this one a stinker by making the "underside" of the wing plain grey instead of mimicking the paintstyle of the "topside". Which makes the ship look really lackluster when the wing section is flipped upwards. Of course the set has some absolutely great figures coming with it...
The E-wing build was so much fun. The techniques used for the wings were ingenious. I was surprised at how big the ships were considering you get two in one box.
Great reviews! And also, I dont know if its weird to comment on, but respect to you sticking to your guns on the T-6 shuttle! Most people would buy that solely for the views & monetization they can get from an early review. But you dont like the price and you are speaking with your wallet about it too! I dont know, maybe Im weird, but its just nice to see!
I cant believe that Lego expects us to believe that they "are limited on the helmet printing of the new clone helmets" when they can do this high level of printing on a pilot helmet.
Thank you for the review. I pre ordered this set and will be my 2nd 2 ship set this year. I got it for the Ewing and the pilot and droid. I am ordering clear stands that will have both in a dogfight mode. You are the first review I have found of this. Glad I ordered this early.
I just got the new r2d2 with back printing in yodas starfighter and just because you mentions the messed up prints on the head I had to note, I have never seen such a perfectly straight printed r2d2 than the one I got out of that yodas starfighter box. Idk if they fixed the problem or if I just got a super lucky one. But it's really really nice
Engineering reasons. You can make cockpits smaller, allowing for more space underneath the cockpit to hold other things, be it structural, detailing, or play features.
I’ll probably get this set but I really wish it wasn’t a dual ship set. I don’t really care at all about the Naboo looking starfighter. E-wing looks sick though.
Can't say I'm a fan of the proportions on the E-wing sadly. I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, if you enjoy it, You have my full support, it's just a bit too much like a Kei truck in it's proportions for me. I may find myself having a crack at a beefing it out a bit. The landing gear is a huge improvement, you're bang on the money there.
What camera and lens do you use? Your 4k close ups of the minifigs and sets are really nice. Colors are great, and love the depth of field & bokeh too. Just discovered your channel and liking your Lego vids! 👍
it's funny watching this cause I have the exact opposite feelings, I'm skipping this set because I don't care about the e wing at all. If the starfighter was released by itself I'd 100% buy it.
It’s interesting that HTR likes the E-Wing more, while I was entranced by the opposing ship. I’ve been considering buying the set and selling the e-wing and pilot, but the price is prohibitive for me
You mentioned in the other video that you found the sets in a Learning Express store. Does this store happen to be in NJ? Asking because I would like to go find them.
That E-Wing looks amazing. The one good thing to come out of Disney getting Star Wars was their resetting the EU and cherry picking from it to fold into their new continuity. I have a guidebook to Droids and star ships from the old continuity and I think the droid with the E-Wing was mentioned in that book as being special ordered by the New Republic to specifically function as the astro mech for their E-Wings. Shin Hati's starfighter kind of looks like a cobbled together mess. I hope we will be able to appreciate it better once we see it in the show. Update. I actually managed to get the E-Wing all on its own from a seller on eBay. Just the ship, no astromach or pilot, but it was only $50. The ship really is a thing of beauty. I really like the new generation of stud shooter weapons on the ship too. They really look like cool blasters even when they aren't loaded. My complaint about the old stud shooters was they needed to have a stud loaded in the front or they looked weird. But the shaping and the way the trigger rests when it isn't loaded make it look right as just an imaginary weapon that doesn't need to fire anything IRL.
I think it’s a fine set, the minifigs are lackluster and so are the builds are to, at least compared to the other Ashoka sets, with a fixed budget I’d say just go for the one with Ashoka in it, it gives us her and other main characters and it’s not like the other sets don’t but these are more major characters for a cheaper price, the ghost looks amazing but the price doesn’t, but I’m just rambling I’m just gonna order the minifigs off bricklink to save money
i honestly would be fine with Shin Hati’s fighter if the grey was replaced with black. it would look so sleek in red, yellow, and black instead of the grey
I can guarantee you that Shin's starfighter would stay on shelves forever if it wasn't with E-wing. It looks like bootleg of a knock-off Naboo Starfighter, and feels like something from early 2000s. Tho I'm not sure if that's designers fault. It is what it is.
i’d absolutely get this if it was just the E wing in a standalone set but i honestly cant afford to pay so much for 1 great ship and one kinda irrelevant one. same with the other 2 pack, if anything i’d love to be able to get the tie interceptor and the e wing in the same set but of course that wouldnt make any sense dont get me wrong though, i still love all 4 of the vehicles and their respective minifigures
Dude, they made this ship a long time ago. And sure it was in different color and had a character that most thought was stupid. BUT THE SHIP ITSELF WAS CANON. And bigger. And looked honestly better
I will mod the E Wing to have the top cannon and conceal the Astromech. I’m just happy it’s finally Cannon. Edit: I wish the E-Wing was its own set, I don’t really care for the antagonist ship.
Nah I’m glad the top cannon is gone it looked goofy AF and didn’t make much sense to put there like having a laser cannon firing right above you would be really distracting and how would you even get out of the cockpit or eject out?
Lego and its chronic overpricing problem makes every set a 5/10 for everyone not making 6 digits/year Maybe i exagurated, but if lego can exagurate their prices i can do it with my critique
Bro has a review of this before ANYONE else. I hope this grows your channel u deserve a lot more subs
I could not agree more
Mandr rn: looks like we’ve got competition
@@JimMilnerTHX138 lol
There is a German channel JB SPEILWARN or something which has it also
@@legotalkreviewplay3415 he gets a lot of things early
if you think about it, LEGO did technically make an E-Wing back in 2013 with the Jek-14 LEGO original series, just that it was well...a custom E-Wing
I own that set. Sadly it fell apart in one of my bins when I moved.
@@Wxyver_n Darth Vader Inhale: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
exactly, this guys a hack... this is not the first LEGO E-Wing and Jek's is more accurate to the actual fighter
it’s a huge bummer we didn’t get the orange sabers for baylan and shin tbh! id rather get straight orange blades if the orange red is off the table, rather than pure red.
Careful, opinions like that will have normies calling you a toxic Lego star wars fan
It's a shame Lego discontinued Trans-Neon Orange a few years ago, that's probably why
@@demelzawalkden5688yep :/
Apparantly Filoni meant for them to have red light sabers but something went wrong in post production so they appear orange in the show.
That's not true though.@@mortagon1451
It’s really refreshing to see such a positive view on these fantastic new sets. Your reviews actually make me want to go out and buy Lego
Fr a lot of channels are extremely picky and focus on the negative rather than the many positives a set like this offers

They made an E-Wng before and it had the dorsal cannon. Set 75018.
@@commandernomad2817 Oh yeah, I forgot about that thing. I still feel this one to be kinda the first official E-Wing because they're calling it an E-Wing by name, But man, I forgot about that set, I should pick it up sometime.
Tbh the dorsal canon was what always bothered me about the e wing design so I’m not even that bummed out about the redesign hahaha.
I just completed this set and it should be very easy to modify with minimal effort and cost.
I like how Shin's fighter looks kinda like a WW2 fighter plane.
Just just discovered your channel and I’ll say it’s refreshing to see a Lego Star Wars reviewer that just doesn’t nit pick every small detail and being negative towards the set etc, but regardless good video awesome too see the E wing is perfect looking.

Love Jang too!
i think lego had actually made an E-wing before, or at least it's very similar to this actual E-wing, the set is 75018 Jek-14's Stealth Starfighter
Shin’s ship is interesting. Star Wars ships take a lot of inspiration from WWII, but this one is straight up a spitfire with pontoons on it
How?😂
I don’t really see the resemblance here for me it looks like they took more inspiration from the xp-50 for shins ship, the e wing however does look like a mashup of a spitfire and Stuka with its sleek superstructure and massive cannons under the wing.
I can’t wait for your Ghost and Phantom II review!
The review will not be early unfortunately! I wanna make that one special so I don’t know when that review will be out, but I think you guys will like it!
@@HelloThereRex Ok! Can’t wait! 😃
Some of the best Lego review I've seen in a long time. You've earned a new sub!
1:18 You had the perfect opportunity to say "This will make a fine addition to my collection."
Amazing review my guy!
The E-Wing got a the right mix of smoothness
I always considered Jen-14’s ship to be an E-wing
Yay another new Lego Star Wars set reviewed early I think m&r and you are about to have some competition
This is awesome! I really love the Ashoka sets! Lego put so much quality and care into them and I can’t wait to pick them up on release!
I agree. Partly...
I really like this set, as well as the new Ghost.
But Ahsoka's shuttle? Just, no. They really made this one a stinker by making the "underside" of the wing plain grey instead of mimicking the paintstyle of the "topside". Which makes the ship look really lackluster when the wing section is flipped upwards.
Of course the set has some absolutely great figures coming with it...
@@EinFritzMitXyeah that’s true. As a whole they are all good. The figure selection is pretty nice in the Jedi shuttle in my opinion.
They made an E-Wing before, it was for the Lego Yoda Chronicles and was Jek-14’s Stealth fighter
The E-wing build was so much fun. The techniques used for the wings were ingenious. I was surprised at how big the ships were considering you get two in one box.

I want this one so much ! Thanks for the review !!
Honestly your review videos are AMAZING. You earned a sub
Great review. Nice to see some positive reactions to Lego sets.
Very nice and clean looking thumbnails on ur vids 👍🏻
Great video definitely will be picking this up. Been loving the two ship sets recently with the tie interceptor and now this
I cant believe that Lego expects us to believe that they "are limited on the helmet printing of the new clone helmets" when they can do this high level of printing on a pilot helmet.
Im very glad that im getting this set for my birthday!
an absolute banger set
Great to see another new channel and that you're doing so well, I'm jealous you found these sets to early! Nice review!
Thank you for the review. I pre ordered this set and will be my 2nd 2 ship set this year. I got it for the Ewing and the pilot and droid. I am ordering clear stands that will have both in a dogfight mode. You are the first review I have found of this. Glad I ordered this early.
Another great review. Thanks for the early reviews Rex, looking forward to your Ghost and Phantom review
04:00 yeah TLG pulled a speed champions two pack on this Star Wars set. One half is amazing and the other is meh. 😂
You know it’s going to be a good day when HelloThereGuy posts a video :)
Love the review man! Congrats on being the first to review it
you seem to be getting the sets at an opportune time to review! thanks for the vid
Absolutely love all of it!!

Idk if they fixed the problem or if I just got a super lucky one. But it's really really nice
I really want the E Wing, but I really don't want that other ship.
it looks like somebody took a Naboo Starfighter and made it bad.
Why is lego obsessed with making our pilots lay down....
Engineering reasons. You can make cockpits smaller, allowing for more space underneath the cockpit to hold other things, be it structural, detailing, or play features.
I’m so happy we got a ikea droid!
Now we have a McDonalds droid!
I hope lego does something like this with an ARC-170 and Vulture droid and/or hyena bomber.
Great video! You just gained another sub!!
Beautiful set! I liked it so much that I just made them in micro build 😃
I must say, your thumbnails are so clickable and gorgeous. Even though they are so simple
Really loving your reviews, I like how you don’t just whine and complain like everyone else
I was able to get Porter’s hair into the storage space. He sits a bit higher though.
I’ll probably get this set but I really wish it wasn’t a dual ship set. I don’t really care at all about the Naboo looking starfighter. E-wing looks sick though.
We need an Arc-170 Bs Plo Koon in this style of set
To me the E wing looks a bit like that fighter from Battlestar galactica
Where’d you acquire the sets so early?
Can't say I'm a fan of the proportions on the E-wing sadly. I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, if you enjoy it, You have my full support, it's just a bit too much like a Kei truck in it's proportions for me. I may find myself having a crack at a beefing it out a bit.
The landing gear is a huge improvement, you're bang on the money there.
Idk the E wing was always quite a stubby ship and I think the set replicates that well
I thought the same but then I built it and it looks a lot better in person.
amazing set
I really like the minion astromech
I heard it in my head as the ewe wing!:😂😂😅 other than that good job and review! 👍
What camera and lens do you use? Your 4k close ups of the minifigs and sets are really nice. Colors are great, and love the depth of field & bokeh too. Just discovered your channel and liking your Lego vids! 👍

Cool review and all, but does the astromech droid have back printing?
No
i honestly would be fine with Shin Hati’s fighter if the grey was replaced with black. it would look so sleek in red, yellow, and black instead of the grey
What do you mean finally ?
In 2013 Lego made the " 75018 Jek-14's Stealth Starfighter " what basicly was an E-Wing .
Idk why the inquisitors dont have capes and a hood piece too …
If you don’t mind me asking which stores are doing them early ?
shin hati's ship is so cool
That one figure looks a LOT like Dooku
I can guarantee you that Shin's starfighter would stay on shelves forever if it wasn't with E-wing. It looks like bootleg of a knock-off Naboo Starfighter, and feels like something from early 2000s.
Tho I'm not sure if that's designers fault. It is what it is.
My thoughts exactly. I figured they put it in this set because they knew it would rot on shelves by itself.
i’d absolutely get this if it was just the E wing in a standalone set but i honestly cant afford to pay so much for 1 great ship and one kinda irrelevant one.
same with the other 2 pack, if anything i’d love to be able to get the tie interceptor and the e wing in the same set but of course that wouldnt make any sense
dont get me wrong though, i still love all 4 of the vehicles and their respective minifigures
In theory jek -14 is kinda a like a E-wing but modified version. Still its noce to see a remake
no, Jek's follows the actual E-Wing original design, this one does not.
@@Zero_Omega_ZX really ok then I guess I'm glad I got Jek's E-wing
I thought we got an e wing in 2013 as Jek 14’s starfighter
They really put a minion in the set
Another early lego set? nice bro lol
amazing review!!! How did you get it so early? :D
The droid looks like Ikea.
Man, I love you❤
Does the r2 unit have backprinting?
Dude, they made this ship a long time ago. And sure it was in different color and had a character that most thought was stupid. BUT THE SHIP ITSELF WAS CANON. And bigger. And looked honestly better
DUDE U FORGOT TO GET THE NEW GUNSHIP IT WAS NEXT TO THE E WING
Great review
Does anyone know where to find concept arts for Shin Hati star fighter?
I eould love LEGO to release a second E-Wing with the female pilot from the series.
I love this channel so much KEEP IT UP REX
How do uou get the sets early. Nice review
Doesn’t the pilot appear in Mando s3?
I will mod the E Wing to have the top cannon and conceal the Astromech. I’m just happy it’s finally Cannon.
Edit: I wish the E-Wing was its own set, I don’t really care for the antagonist ship.
Let it rip dude!
i honestly prefer shin hati's starfighter a sit is kindof reminicent of the n1 (oone of my facourite ships from all of starwars
I wised it had the upper cannon like in star war legends
Nah I’m glad they removed it as tbh it just looked goofy and how would the canopy even be able to open?
What could that other ship be potentially rebuilt into?
Kraft AstroMech and Cheese
One big problem with this E-wing It's missing the 3rd blaster cannon on top.
I also don't care for the multi packs like this I just want the E-wing.
Nah I’m glad the top cannon is gone it looked goofy AF and didn’t make much sense to put there like having a laser cannon firing right above you would be really distracting and how would you even get out of the cockpit or eject out?
@@omarbaba9892
I agree it never made sense
Thats true about lots of stuff in Star Wars
Is there gonna be a Ghost review?
Is the pilot the Asian guy from Mandalorian?
Why is the Droid sideways?!?!?!?!?
Lego often do that with ships that aren’t wide enough to fit it width ways
Ikea droid
Minifigures: 10/10
E-wing: 9/10
That other ship most people will part out: 2/10
IKEA Astromech
Lego and its chronic overpricing problem makes every set a 5/10 for everyone not making 6 digits/year
Maybe i exagurated, but if lego can exagurate their prices i can do it with my critique
