Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter ("medium-sized")

[Legostein]

Hello everybody!

Today I'd like to present a different version of Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter to you. As many of you might know, Plo Koon flies a blue/white Delta-7B Aethersprite-class Light Interceptor, named "Blade of Dorin". An official LEGO® set has been released last year (set 8093).

Seven years earlier, LEGO® released a completely different set of the "Designers" line, set 4098 High Flyers, which many of you might own already.

What I did not realise until recently is that you can build a pretty nice Plo Koon Jedi Starfighter only using bricks from set 4098! Although it's smaller than the LEGO® version it can even seat a minifigure to pilot it. I am sorry that there was no appropriate option for adding an astromech droid, but all other essential details should be there.

Building instructions finally online!

That's it for today. Instruction link (if wanted) will be added once BrickShelf updated. Thank you for stepping by and enjoy your sunday!

That looks amazing, I love your alternate SW builds out of non star wars sets.

Very nice Chris! The blue and white color of the 4098 set does scream 'Blade of Dorin' right from the very first glance. As always the way you effectively utilized the pieces to come up with this alternate build is really impressive.

Another fantastic creation from you 'Legostein'.....Brick On with the force !

Wow, great job using the limited amount of pieces in a LEGO set to make Plo Koon's JSF!

[commdr_neyo]

Great build for such a limited amount of parts!

Instantly recognizable

[prateek]

Haha, this is awesome. Just get a used copy of this off of BL for $5, a cockpit and the figures needed, and you have a Plo Koon JSF for less than half the price of the real set

And another fantastic alternate-build by Legostein !

You might try to make another Starfighter, but smaller, and using the other windscreen showed on the box. The 2x2 slope I mean. Or maybe that's a bad idea; you're the expert.

Perfect Legostein, the way you can make these brilliant looking SW ships out of non SW Sets is amazing.

[Ceroknight]

Very clever Legostein!

I really like it.

[Brickdoctor]

Your alternates never cease to amaze me, Legostein.

[Oky]

Amazing alternative as always, Legostein! This deserves to be...

[Legostein]
