Droid Tri-Fighter Reviews
FBTB
“This is a simple ship that strikes me as a bit more fun as the others in the price category. It's been released more recently than the yellow Interceptor, but like the Vulture Droid, it's the kind of ship that you need in a horde for a good space battle MOC.”
Brickset
“It was well-designed, fun, and getting an official Palpatine was a nice bonus. And secondary market prices for the previous two Tri-Fighter sets being what they were at the time, it was certainly the most bang for my buck. It's a lot beefier than the 2005 set, making it seem... More less shrimpy next to fellow more modern sets like the 2014 Vulture Droid or Obi-Wan's Jedi Interceptor from 2016.”
