9494 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor 76 — The Striker-class Starfighter is superior value; same price but offers more ship, a fresher design, new figures, and is not a reuse of prior molds like the Jedi Interceptor (which reused 85% of the 2006 design and featured a recolor of 2009's Nute Gunray).
X-Wing (2006 version) — The Striker is simpler with just one wing, has a very classic shape, and is satisfying in its own right, though comparable in overall appeal to the X-Wing.
ARC Fighter — The reviewer hasn't held the ARC Fighter to compare directly but positions the Striker as part of the same tier of Star Wars starfighter sets.
Rogue Shadow (2008) — Both are similarly unknown expanded universe sets at reasonable prices; the reviewer considers the Rogue Shadow a favorite and groups the Striker with it as quality ships worth collecting regardless of direct game connection.
