Republic Striker-class Starfighter Reviews
Brickset
“This is an interesting model. It looks great in both wings configurations. The colour scheme is eye-catching and attractive. The minifigs are nothing special, but they are nevertheless very good.”

“I really wanted to like this set, but the misses outweigh the hits. The minifigures can't save it, and unlike it's enemy, the Sith Infiltrator, it doesn't look good on the shelf. Sure, some of the parts have a lot of utility in other builds, like the printed slopes used for... More the nose and the astromech tiles and dishes, but at this price point, they're not worth getting.”
CollectionDX
“As awesome as the fighter is, it was the mini-figs that I was looking forward to getting. All of the characters included are styled as their younger appearance from opening cinematics of the game (these take place some ten to fifteen years prior to when the player enters the... More game.) If you are a fan of the game Star Wars The Old Republic you really should grab this before it’s gone for good and not easily gettable.”
