Jedi Starfighter

Description

Twenty-three elements

Of the 29 pieces, 23 are unique elements, so only a handful of parts appear more than once. That is an unusually high level of variety for a miniature build, and it means each step brings a new shape to the model. The build still takes only a few minutes, but it rarely feels repetitive. Afterwards you have a diverse set of small parts that is ideal for your own designs, particularly small ships that need lots of different details rather than many copies of one brick.

The prequel-era fighter

Jedi starfighters are a fixture of the prequel trilogy. In Attack of the Clones, Obi-Wan Kenobi flies one to Kamino and on to Geonosis while tracking the bounty hunter Jango Fett. Their slim, wedge-shaped hull with an astromech droid tucked into the side makes them easy to recognise. The Clone Wars later shows these fighters in many variations and colour schemes, and this small set captures the general idea in a model that fits on a desk.

White against dark red

White leads the main colours, followed by dark red, light bluish grey and blue. The contrast between white and dark red gives the model a strong presence on a shelf, while grey balances it and blue adds another accent. Dark red appears less often in small sets than the common greys and blues, so it is a nice colour to add to a parts collection. The overall look sets it apart from the darker ships of the Empire and the Separatists.

Building a Republic fleet

Combined with other small ships from the Clone Wars period, this fighter helps you assemble a compact Republic fleet on a single shelf. The parts list on this page shows every element with colour and quantity, which is useful for checking a loose copy. What can I build? compares your pieces with other sets and highlights which ones you can already complete. It may also reveal which small Clone Wars ships are only a couple of parts away.
