(More customer reviews)This is the same Y-wing fighter for the Hasbro 3 3/4" Star Wars figures that was released several years ago as a Target exclusive, save that it is painted with a red trim, blue canopy frame, and silver body. It is essentially a copy of the origional Kenner Y-wing from the early 1980s, but without the electronics and removable R2 Robot unit. The landing gear retract using a switch, a bomb can be attached and dropped by pushing a button, the canopy opens sideways (like in the movies), the cockpit is detailed and seats one figure, the ion cannons elevate and rotate, the R2 Robot's head turns.
I was surprised when I found this at a Toys R Us, and quite pleased as I had previously been unable to purchase the rare POTF Y-wing released at Target. My hats off to Hasbro for providing a second chance. The vehicle, while undersized in scale, nonetheless appears accurate to the movie version. It is NOT loaded with funky, innacurate features as some Hasbro Star Wars vehicles are. A removable R2 unit (like on the large X-wing just released) would have been preferable, however. The paint job is nice and includes some wear and tear. All in all, the Y-wing is a good addition to a Star Wars vehicle collection.
