An interesting combination, this was initially the most expensive set LEGO had made. The Y-Wing is a good reproduction of the fighter, a long piece when finished. The biggest annoyance is the use of a 2x2 turntable plate to mount the ion cannons on top - it is much too loose, and everytime you move the fighter it causes the cannons to whip around in any direction. Vader's TIE (contrary to the set name, it is not a "standard" TIE) is a chunky model with the loose wing connection. It seems as if LEGO could have done without this kind of connection in an effort to leave the final piece feeling more rigid. The Vader minifig is one of the best, with a removable helmet to show a scarred and gray Anakin Skywalker.
