Packaging

A classic Microfighter box, with a 3/4 view of the Y-Wing on the front of the box while the back shows the rear of the starfighter and the whole Zorii Bliss minifigure.

 

Minifigure

The minifigure in this Microfighter is Zorii Bliss. She comes with two old style pistolet which is rather disappointing. It's the exact same minifigs that comes with the 75249: Resistance Y-wing Starfighter. The printing on the legs suffer from bad alignement between the legs and the waist but also between the waist and the torso. It would have been nice to have an actual head, even a random one, instead of a blank black one.

 

Builds

The micro Y-wing is pretty nice, and using some good parts. The only downside for me is the shooters. I'm sure the shape would have been even better without them. The pilot is also sitting a bit too low so her arms have to be raised up which is kinda weird.

 

Conclusion

Minifig: 6/10 - Zorii Biss minifig is nice but suffers from bad prints alignement. The black head and the old pistols are also a minus point.

Build: 8/10 - The Y-Wing is pretty cool, instantly recognizable. The part selection is good.

Price: 8/10 - With a ppp of 0,12€ and a minifig, this set is rather interesting, especially if you're looking for this particular minifig.

Overall: 22/30 (73%) - A good Microfighter set, despite a minifigure that could have been better.

This one looks pretty cool.

Reminds me that I still have an unfinished (almost done) review of the Microfighters Series 1

Why is the inclusion of Pistolets a bad thing?

[Bob De Quatre]

I don't think the old pistols fits the SW universe, and especially this character.

Seems to be a nice set if you need flick-fire-missiles.
