LEGO Star Wars Resistance Major Vonreg’s TIE Fighter 75240 Building Kit (496 Pieces)

Awesome Build! My son loved building it and playing with it! Well Worth the money! One of the best Star Wars LEGO sets!

Soo this is a pretty addition to my Resistance v. First Order collection. I love the TIE Interceptor since the original Battlefront II on PSP. This is an ever better version than the original! Its like a mix between Vaders TIE Advanced with the wide body, wide arm-to-wing connection, and back half of the wings with the TIE Interceptors front half of the wings. That glam red is sooo much more attractive than the typical primary black and secondary grey. I also like how this, like the other recent TIEs, integrate the projectiles; it is discrete, actually part of the authentic look, and doesnt set off easily, unlike the X-Wings super-sensitive projectiles. The built of this TIE is solid, more so than the original First Order Tie thanks to that Technic internal structure. Unfortunately, that build also makes the wings a bit wobbly, but it is worth the exchange. I can swish this without worry. The minifigs included are of great value. Every minifigures comes with a non-projectile blaster (except the astromech), and each one is unique. I prefer that over the First Order Tie that, while comes with good army-building mini figures, has those officers and engineers which arent unique or intimidating. Im biased, though. Id want an army of Special Forces and Praetorian Guards for my Resistance army to fight a valiant but loosing battle against. Now the cons. This should have came with a dock to set the TIE in. The TIE tends to fall forward in non-flat surfaces, like carpet. In general, this TIE doesnt set as well as the X-Wings do. It would only take a handful of Technic pieces to hold the wings up. Then there is the original price. Wow, so not worth it. It is the most appealing set I have seen in a while, but in spite of that I would never purchase this at full price. I got it on the cheap, with a grand total of $41. I wouldnt spend more than $45 on it. The piece/$ ratio is terrible, as has been the trend over the years. I cant in good conscience suggest getting this at full price, even though it is my favorite Star Wars set.

good but colors were strong

Thats it. 1-star for ToKaLand selling used @#$@ as new. No instructions, hair clip holding a bag of parts together.

I was just a little boy when I saw my first Star Wars movie and Im still watching the new ones today. For me, this set is one that you put together and set on your bookshelf or set. It was a fun build and our kids desperately want to play with it obviously but its all mine.

Great Lego

Bought this gift as a Christmas gift for my nephew. He loved it!!

I really love the red and black combination especially with the red pilot. There hasn’t been a regular tie interceptor made in a while and this is basically it but different colors and it’s looks so good. The durability is really good and will not break easily unless purposely done. I really recommend this unique and would get it instantly when on sale.

My son loves it.

Fun set! The colors and pattern design make this one really stick out.
