Firstly, the selection: Luke Skywalker, Wedge Antilles, R2-D2, Princess Leia Organa, Han Solo, and Chewbacca. You turn the gear on the back, that turns a screw in the gearbox, that turns a pair of bars that force the wings open. Even though this set was created in 2006, it hasn't been discontinued and is still up for purchase at Toy's R Us.

Note: Two of the pictures in this review under the Finished Model section (Side view and Head-on view) aren't showing up on my end, but a RA Teacher can see them just fine. Sadly, despite being the oldest set currently in production, this set does not have a picture of an alternate build, even though it's all but unchanged from it's predecessor which did have an alternate model, 4502-1. It is interesting to note that with the retirement of the 10 th Anniversary Echo Base set ( 7749) this older version has now outlasted its successor. The X-wing is clearly flying away from Hoth, and Hoth-edition minifigs are show in the minifig lineup in the bottom right.

br>* Features parts to customize your starfighter as either Luke Skywalker’s Red Five or Wedge’s Red Two X-wing! Today's value for a new/sealed X-wing Fighter is estimated around 112 € with a average yearly gain of 4% and is expected to level off closer to 3% soon. This screen would be seen by the pilot inside the little retracting targeting scope, not on the instrument panel itself.

The set includes stands for the striped tiles that can be used to customize the fighter to be either Wedge's Red 2 or Luke's Red 5. The parts list in the set instructions lists 2 of part 3710 Plate 1 x 4 in white, but only 1 is included in the set and needed to build the model. It's a nice scale, not so small I feel I'm getting ripped off but not so large that I couldn't fly it around the house if I wanted to (LOL).The wing starts off with a stack of plates since, as with most any LEGO set, that's what a wing essentially is. We've got the three printed parts; always nice to see those instead of stickers, plus these are pretty useful ones too boot. We also see two bubbles and a line of text at the bottom left, all set on red, declaring the primary features in English and French.
