The LEGO 75172 set, officially titled as “Y-Wing Starfighter,” is a part of the LEGO Star Wars series. Released in 2017, this set is designed to replicate the iconic Y-Wing Starfighter seen in the Star Wars universe, particularly in the Rebel fleet. The set comprises 691 pieces and is targeted towards fans and collectors aged 8-14 years old, though it appeals to a much wider age range of Star Wars and LEGO enthusiasts.
This detailed model features an intricately designed Y-Wing Starfighter equipped with rotating guns, a cockpit that opens to fit a minifigure, retractable landing skids, and space for the included Astromech Droid. In addition to the main build, the set comes with five minifigures: a Y-Wing Pilot, Admiral Raddus, Moroff, a Rebel Astromech Droid, and a Rebel Ground Crew, each with their own accessories that enhance the role-playing aspects of the set.
The LEGO 75172 set is highly appreciated by fans for its authenticity to the Star Wars movies, playability, and the detailed craftsmanship of both the starfighter and the minifigures. It makes for a great display piece as well as a functional toy for recreating scenes from the films or inventing new adventures in the galaxy far, far away.
