Now, let's see what's inside that grabbed my attention.\u003cbr\u003eUpon opening, we find 10 numbered bags, a mysterious long box, the manual, an unnumbered bag, a loose link piece, and a paper envelope. That mysterious long box? It holds the brand new blade pieces for the wings—8 of them! These blades, at almost 32 cm (12.5 inches), are massive and beautifully molded in a special matte silver finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this design, \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ebce48;\"\u003eZ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2f4a86;\"\u003eE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #b76e99;\"\u003eN\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #c27945;\"\u003eE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e lighting uses very low-key lighting to avoid making such a sci-fi aircraft flashy, and also has more military concealment. The warm light in the cockpit makes the pilot appear faintly, which is very cool. The white LED in the front simulates the weapon system of the laser array, and the flame like lights on the wings and engine at the back make everything so realistic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilding Experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe build kicks off with a studded Technic core, incorporating new slopes from last year in a fresh color.

The cockpit is faithful to the movie, but some might find the lack of interior details disappointing. Exposed Technic elements might irk some, and the red tow balls stand out. The absence of a display stand might disappoint those looking for a dynamic flying pose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the value, it's an excellent set, offering a unique building experience and an impressive display piece.
