    Very cute microfighter

    Written by (AFOL , gold-rated reviewer) in Hungary,

    Minifigure

    The painting of the figure comes from The Mandalorian Season 2, and the book of Boba Fett. Very detailed. Unfortunately, the rangefinder is missing from the helmet, but then Boba's head would not have fit in the cabin.

    Slave 1

    I have seen a very similar size and structure slave 1 spaceship before with moc builders around 2014-2015, they used the same cabin windshield. But the angularity of the spacecraft reminds me of the first official Slave 1.

    The best thing is that the cabin is designed like the larger sets, meaning that the minifigure can fit in both seating positions. I didn't expect that from a $10 set. Love it!

    1 thing is missing, the kenner toy mechanism. Unfortunately, the wings do not turn automatically as a result of garavitation. And the flaps are too small and square. A 3x3 curved plate would have been better for the flap. Fortunately, this can be easily repaired, and in addition, it takes 2 less parts to move the wing. I'll show you how at the bottom of the article.

    Overall

    So far, this is the best microfighter that Lego has released. I actually bought this set just for the minifigure. It's a very good value set, as for $10 you get a good quality minifigure and a small but practical spaceship. Plus, the laser cannons also work.

    My modification

    So, first I replaced the wing with a larger 3x3 curved plate. It's more realistic that way.

    I replaced the technic brick with a traditional pin connector.

    So now, wherever I tilt the spaceship, the gravity mechanism works, the wings automatically turn horizontal.

    Someday I might change the tail part to make it more proportional, but the set is still cute.
