Lego 10240 UCS X-Wing Red 5

News from a number of forums have surfaced on the internet over the weekend of the latest Lego UCS set for this year.

Surprisingly, Lego have opted to redo one of the first UCS sets that they created being the X-Wing.


Watching the designer video its clear to see that there have been improvements from the original, personally I'd say that cross wing support is the far superior to the original that could sag due to the weight of the wing and how it was positioned


I like the detail in the air intake and the engine at the back, the canopy includes the targeting computer.  It feels from looking at the designer video that they have paid attention to detail, more so than when this set first came out.



With the sets that have been released perhaps a Slave 1 or a Jedi Interceptor could've been a good choice.  It will be interesting to see what set we get later in the year.
