Pretty good model kit May 19, 2011 By T. Zhuang
Anakin's Jedi Starfighter from Revenge of the Sith is a fairly good model kit, as it isn't a pre-assembled toy that some might think. It's a Level 1 Snap Tite kit from Revell, which basically means it comes fully painted for you in it's "stock" colors and all you have to do is cut the pieces from the runners and snap them together.

Overall, Revell did a pretty good job with the paint, although there may be the occasional error on a model or two since it's mass produced. The cockpit is made from a very nice transparent plastic which gives you full view of the interior. The cockpit sports plenty of detail but could use a little paint or lining marker to bring out said detail. The s-foils on the wings also open up and sort of "lock" into place, but they can become loose, so a little dried paint or glue should be used to tighten it.

However, it does have it's fair share of errors and quirks that take away from the overall value of the model. For one, the cockpit has no way to stay open, and doesn't open very wide, unlike the in-movie model. It only comes with the top half of the infamous droid R2-D2, but his paint job is rather shabby. The silver looks...odd, and some of the blue paint bleeds onto the silver. Also, when assembling this model, be extremely careful and don't try to force the pieces into each other too violently. The pegs are actually of poorer quality than some other plastic model kits, and they tend to break often or don't go into the designated hole very easily. Have some glue ready in case a peg breaks off, as it tends to do so. I also found that almost all the pegs were too thick for a lot of the parts, forcing me to simply cut them off and glue the parts on instead.
The biggest crime of all, however, is the fact that Revell didn't include a display stand or any sort of hole on the underside of the fuselage to connect a display stand to. Due to this, the ship can only be displayed sitting on your desk with the wings closed, since in order for it to be displayed with the wings open, it must be in middair. No display stand that I have can readily hold onto this ship.

It also comes with a rubbery figure of Anakin Skywalker, which is actually quite large, but it is, to put it blunty, horrible. Revell did a very poor job painting the figure, and it looks like a sloppy mess that barely holds any semblence to Anakin.

Still, despite all that, it's still a nice, sturdy and large model. (Fairly larger than Revell's X-Wing and Y-Wing models.) It bothered me at first that it wasn't in scale with the afterformentioned models, but they're from seperate trilogies, so it's slightly forgivable.

Compared to Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter, they're of the same size but have slightly different molds. Obi-Wan's wings have slightly different panels on them and a clearly different paint job. The cockpit seats also differ slightly, but other than that everything else remains the same.

Tiny parts which break easily. Some pieces didn't fit in the holes or the holes were put in the wrong place so the piece wouldn't fit in due to surroundings. I'm sure with alot of time you could make it look nice but it's not very durable. Definitely not for 8 year olds which is the recommended age.

Not easy, not strong, but usable Jan 23, 2010 By Holly "Bells"
Just got it for Christmas, so I don't know longevity but immediately it was falling apart. Before that though, putting it together was an issue. Some pieces were so tiny that they broke when trying to shove them in and some pieces didn't fit well together. To resolve this, I just used a ton of superglue to keep everything together, it doesn't look great but it is usable now. Maybe this is only meant to be a model but my son wants to use it in his Star Wars figure play. I think most kids would.
