Star Wars X-Wing B-Wing Expansion Pack (First Edition)

Lovely model. In the EU, the E-Wing was the intended successor to the iconic X-Wing, but it never gained traction with most pilots.The model stats are slightly superior to the X-Wing, but not by a great deal. 3 agility gives the ship a decent defense, and the three shields and two hull points give you an extra soak for a dreaded critical hit, as opposed to the X-Wing's 3 hull and 2 shields. The ship is, though, expensive to field; it would not be advisable to field more than one in a standard game.Corran Horn's ability is excellent, allowing him to fire twice in one turn, on the condition that he forfeits an attack in the following turn. Getting into range one of an enemy ship and having the potential to roll four attack dice followed by a further four attack dice at the end of the combat phase can work well for thinning or weakening an opponent's ships. Pairing him with R2-D2 is highly recommended, and will keep him on the table longer.He has a pilot kill of eight.Etahn A'baht is another interesting pilot, and one that works well in Rebel swarm builds. If a Rebel ship attacks an enemy that is within range three of Etahn, that attacker can change one normal hit result to a critical. Etahn is, however, a costly 32 points. He has a pilot skill of five.The two generic pilots come in with pilot skills of three and one, and cost 29 and 27 points respectively.The most notable upgrade card is advanced sensors, and it is an extremely useful upgrade for a B-Wing, allowing an action to be taken before a maneuver.All in all, it is a nice ship, but it is expensive to field. I would recommend probably only getting one, unless you really need another advanced sensors card for a tournament. The Lambda-Class shuttle is the only other ship I know of with this card.

I have to admit to being a little reluctant to buy this initially due to the relatively high ticket price for a single ship/model. However having decided to bite the bullet I'm incredibly glad I did. The model itself is huge in dimensions (as it should be) in comparison to the normal fighters, the detail is great and the paint job is suitably weathered and realistic. So much so you could probably use this in a fan movie if you so desired :)In addition it comes with a wealth of cards and accessories to enhance your game experience and grow upon the basic game. If this is the quality of epic/capital ships that are going to be released for this game series it will become a massive hit as time goes by, especially with the new movies in the pipeline.I'm looking forward to future releases in this series, although don't go expecting a star destroyer any time soon as if built on the same scale it would be unbelievably huge and no doubt carry a price tag to match :)

Firstly, two beautiful TIE Interceptor models in different paint jobs which I believe also differ from the individual pack that you can buy. The pilots included are Carnor Jak, Kir Kanos, Tetran Cowall, Lt. Lorrir plus two Royal Guards on the reverse of the first two and two Saber Squadron Pilots on the reverse of the second two (for the ship tokens that is - the pilot cards are not double sided, but you need to know which are paired when selecting your squad for a battle or mission). The upgrade cards include 2 'Push The Limit' elite skills that are particularly interesting.Also included are a 'Prototype' token and 6 'Function' tokens which are used for the mission included in this set. I haven't played it yet, but looking through it, it looks interesting. In all, a good box set with extras over the single blister pack at a fair price.

Lovely model to complement the X-Wing collection. It comes with plenty of counters for the missions/campaign included in the accompanying booklet (although many of the scenarios require a lot more models than in the core set to play them), and loads of upgrade cards. And here's where the main interest lies. Some of the upgrade cards are 'a must' if you want to play competitively in an X-Wing tournament, and as many of the upgrade cards are only found in this set, you have to buy it.The plastic pegs that attach this huge ship to its base are a bit too flimsy. It's very easy to snap the pegs off. Even when removing the ship from the base, if you don't pull the stand out exactly perpendicular to the ship it risks snapping the pegs off. Invariably they sheer off flush with the locating hole which then becomes almost impossible to extract! So even if you manage to get hold of a new stand (FFG are planning to start selling these some time in 2016) you can't use it. I have snapped off one of these pegs on another model and only managed to get the peg out by clamping the model in a vice and using a hobby micro drill to drill out the peg...not exactly easy! So this is probably not a model for young children (or clumsy adults).Other than the stand issue, this is a great, highly detailed model. FFG have produced a very well polished expansion set. It is a bit pricey at its full RRP, but I picked mine up on an Amazon Prime special 24hr deal at a steal of a price. It arrived in less than 24hrs as well, so top marks to Amazon for that.

Excelente nave, aunque con el cambio de puntos ya no caben 4 y el pack de conversión solo trae lo necesario para dos naves es una excelente adición.

El diseño de las naves esta increíble, tienen detalles hasta en los lugares mas escondidos, son una cosa hermosa

Excelente, con detalles

Tres contant cela s ajoute a ma collection

Lo compre por que ya tenia adquirido el pack de actualizacion de a Xwing 2.0 y esta figura pese a que viene en el startup inicial para hacer mas formaciones son necesarias mas miniaturas.La calidad para colección es inigualable la de esta figura icónica de la saga,.
