Fresh off the LEGO press is this new Y-wing Microfighter, from the latest and final installment of the Star Wars saga, The Rise of Skywalker.
You don’t really see too much of this new character, Zorii Bliss, as she never shows her face in full. With this in mind LEGO have decided to give her Minifigure a blank black head piece.
Her helmet is very detailed and looks pretty good. Using a new mould they have done a great job recreating the look and shape of it, with black visor (not removable).
The Minifigure itself is also very well done, with gold shiny printing on the torso and legs. The base colour is a dark red. Blank black head piece.
The Y-wing is surprisingly sturdy, the engine bars are quite resilient to knocks. Colour scheme is ok, somewhat a likeness to its onscreen counterpart. Situated behind the cockpit is a gun/canon which swivels. Along each side are missiles, which when flicked or pressure is applied will shoot out, all adding to its playability factor.
Overview: A great Microfighter to add to the collection. Well designed and built. Minifigure is the main pull of this set, as Zorii Bliss is only available in one other (more expensive) set.
