"The U-wing Microfighter earns a Recommended score of 72.4 almost entirely on the back of its exceptional pilot minifigure: reviewers and 93% of owners agree the exclusive tri-color helmet mold alone justifies the $9.99 price, even if the ship model has some proportional compromises."
The U-wing Microfighter is a set defined almost entirely by a single exceptional minifigure: the Blue Squadron U-wing Pilot, whose new tri-color helmet mold and 360-degree detailed printing drew unanimous praise from both expert reviewers. Brickset called the minifigure alone worth the $9.99 price, while JANG took a more measured view of the ship model itself, noting awkward engine geometry and stud-shooter prominence. Owners agree with the positive lean, averaging 4.69 across 298 ratings with 93% recommending on LEGO.com.

"The minifigure is undoubtedly the most impressive aspect of this set and I think that alone justifies the price of £8.99 or $9.99, such is its quality."

"Check out this Blue Squadron U-wing pilot figure, though. I mean, the helmet as usual is awesome. Has a great level of detail. Dual molding with the the visor in the front. Everything is nice and crisp in the printing."
