New Republic X-wing Starfighter

"BrickScore 68.7 out of 100 — moderate confidence (3 reviewers, high agreement); a likable but flawed upgrade that most reviewers say is worth picking up only at a discount."

Across three reviewers, the New Republic X-Wing Starfighter (75460) lands as a competent but incremental upgrade to its predecessors — attractive in its blue-and-white New Republic livery and sporting genuine mechanical improvements, but held back by a price point that most find difficult to fully justify. The S-foils mechanism, hexagonal fuselage technique, and cockpit interior earn consistent praise, while the short engines, exposed astromech, problematic nose cone shape, and sticker issues are broadly shared complaints. Two of three reviewers recommend waiting for a sale, with only one calling it a buy at full price.

Where they split: Value perception splits the reviewers most sharply. Solid Brix Studios called it "a pretty good looking X-wing, especially for the $70 price point" and rated value at 78, while MandRproductions scored value a 40 and called it "massively overpriced," arguing LEGO "obviously tacked 10 more dollars" onto what should be a $60 set. Brickset Reviews landed in the middle (64 on value), calling it "slightly expensive." Minifigure quality also divided them — Solid Brix rated minifigs at 80 and praised the helmets, while MandRproductions gave them a 38, citing the absence of arm printing and dual-molded legs at this price.
