Brilliant Video Friend!

My favorite Vehicle as a kid is hard to choose but I would have to say my favorite is the Slave 1

Thanks from Canada mate...Your videos have helped me reconnect with my first love..thank you!

you asked favorite fighter, I think favorite fighter would be the A wing, I think thats the name, it was cool because the pilot during the battle of endor went kamakazi on the big star destroyer and took out the giant ship. I think all time favorite ship would be the slave 1.

[Guernicaman]

My favorite was the B-Wing fighter. I dunno, it was just weird.

[New1Superion2]

Wow, I'm long-winded today! Anywho, I really hope this is the last time Hasbro uses this particular vehicle mold. When I first heard of a new Y-wing for 2011, I was expecting a brand new, true-to-scale, 2-seat BTL-S3 variant with removeable armoured hull and twin, forward-firing, Proton torpedo launchers under the cockpit module. Only in my dreams, I guess...

@New1Superion2 HI, it would be good if Hasbro would do this for us collectors, the Y-wing has been my favorite Star Wars fighter. They should also improve the TIe fighter as well and get those wing sizes done right.

@New1Superion2

You're right, as well as modified the Millennium Falcon and AT-AT, they should have done with the Y-wing. With improvements such as pilot and copilot in the cockpit and front with laser cannons and missiles and new ion cannon. It would have been an excellent decision that's too bad that Hasbro did not. Your friend from Mexico Mario.

FYI: The paint scheme of the 2011 TRU Exclusive Y-wing is based on the original Episode IV film models. Because of poor visibility of the models, due to the blue-screen special effects, the Blue Squadron X-wings and Red Squadron Y-wings were changed to Red Squadron and Gold Squadron respectively.

BTW, my Y-wing came with clear rubber bands running along the support pylons, connected to the Disk Vectrals and the Exhaust Nacelles. Is yours like this and if so, should I leave them on?

[New1Superion2]

Great review, much more detailed than others I've seen so far. As my fave OT starfighter, the BTL-A4 Y-wing has been mine for the past 14 years, since being the first (of many) of Galoob's Action Fleet, Star Wars vehicles I've bought.

Anyway, right outta the box, the rear landing gear couldn't support my Y-wing's butt. I had to attach the twin Ion cannon to the turret and some yahoo in the factory smudged a bit of the red paint off, but I still love my Y-wing!

I have the 30th Y wing too and the legs sag in the back too. it's annoying. I could never get it fixed. any ideas?

[starwarsagent]

the xwing fighter is faster and sleeker. But I do like this one.

[MrWinchester1873]

My fav starfighters is the T-65 X-wing and the ARC-170

[TheLeatheryman]

Always liked the TIE bomber. Was disappointed to learn there wasn't actually a gunner in the portside pod, like in battlefront. Much like the Y-wing. Battlefront made more sense with sometimes.

[supremeobliterator]

I don't know if I wanna open mine or just keep it in the box. I may be tempted to get another one if it goes on sale. In fact I may get down to ToysRUs today since I have the day off to check them out.

[Insidious1933]

Favourite starfighters prequel jedi starfighter (eta2) original trilogy b-wing.

[FialaFernbrugg]

thanks for the review mate

the red markings are really cool

[dntdavila]

Thank you for doing what no other director that did a review of this ship did and that was show it to us from all angles out of the box and even more appreciative that you did a side by side comparison with the. 30th anniversary version to show the differences. I really wish more directors would do this with the latest models and the previous releases to show what changes were made. You did it excellently and thanks again.

[00fire501]

@dntdavila thanks.

[rumrunner777]

Droid socket and new cockpit is the tits, but the TAC paint scheme blows Vintage out of the water. Would've killed for a combination of the two. bummer. But great review as always.

[RC1608]

Nice review Malc, great that you compared the two. No-one likes a saggy under-carriage, although I liked the weathering more on the older fighter.

[miked3038]

Brilliant video and ship

[toys210]

I didnt know this was just a retool and repaint version of the old one. Do you know if they will make a new one like they did with the slave 1 & the falcon? Nice review btw

[waffleownage]

@toys210 From what I hear, this is the last time they will use this mould, I could be wrong though.

[toys210]

@waffleownage so you think they will make a new y-wing in a few years?

[waffleownage]

@toys210 probably (that is, if my previous comment was accurate)

[TheBudgetJedi]

Great review! and you have absolutely no bending on your engine bars, very nice my friend! I have Ecklarc yong sitting in mine. lol
