playing with it
It was so easy making the other parts but the engine was the hardest. Good colors. Very good mechanics. The engine looks very good.
Great set, worth it in the end
This set has proved better in the play factor, which is not something I’m disappointed in. There are a few flaws to the design of the spacecraft itself, including the frail structure and large size, but the set overall has been a joy for me and my thieving siblings. The one thing that really bothered me was the price-to-piece ratio. The money wasn’t worth the set, but the set was definitely worth my time.
Mandalorian build
The mandalorian star fighter is a fun build with a level of technical concentration required. The set is fairly detailed and well structured. One piece however, the back tail point, was on mine, flexible and bendy and I would have preferred this to be a solid piece to retain its shape.
Mandalorian N1
Great set. Looks fantastic and the building process is good. Comes with 3 minifigs and a droid, which are of good quality. For a set in this price range, the N1 is a bit larger than several other Star Wars sets in the same price range. There is plenty of variation in color and build. The model is definitely not symmetrical, which I find great, but maybe not everyone will find it as cool. My only complaint is: the set comes in 3 bags. Two with number 1 and 1 with number 2. Compared to several other sets, I think the distribution of parts could have been better. The instructions are clear, and the variation in parts and colors is good. Recommended.
GREAT!
Larger than expected. A beautiful set for a good price. Fun minifigures and reasonably long building experience. Ordered and received the next day, couldn't be better. Also important, since it's LEGO, the set is well packaged, so the box arrives undamaged. Always nice.
Great build
I bought this kit for my daughter and just had to get one for myself. Really fun to build and the scale is spot on.
I have an N1 that was released back from episode 1 and the quality of this one far out paces the one 25 years ago.
I hope they release a new episode 1 n1 with this kind of quality soon!
Awesome!
Such an awesome build! All kinds of fun. I would highly recommend this build. If you are a fan of the Mandalorian this is must have. My only complain would be the lack of mini-figures. For the price I think Lego could have added at least one more, maybe Cara Dune for example. Thank you, Lego.
It’s the N1 what more is there to say
I purchased this for myself being a huge fan of the latest Star Wars series, I already have the Razor Crest & Boba Fetts Starship so had to have the N1, I purchased this from the Lego store in Milton Keynes(UK), service there was fantastic.
The build was relatively simple using the as normal excellent build instructions, the only thing I would say is that it is a little confusing having 2 bags labelled no1 with parts from the initial build stages in both bags, once I realised this it was ok.
I like to build gradually over several days so that I can see the model develop, so I would say I took about 4 days to build it for about 45 minutes at each stage.
Once complete I was surprised how large it was considering the fairly low part count, it is as long as the latest version of the Millenium falcon is wide.
I wanted to display the model in a way that you could see all the detail on the top as it does not have a dedicated display stand, I have built one from the limited amount of Technic Lego I have (this is only a pro type) I have more Tecnic coming to refine the design. I tipped the model along its length & also across its width which means it appears to be flying towards you & all the top detail is visible.
I would highly recommend this model to any Star Wars fan.
Excellent representation for a good price.
Of course, the most popular spaceship of the moment due to the third season of The Mandalorian on Disney+. Immediately recognizable, except that the wings are too basic and thin. However, the external engines are beautifully detailed. As many have already noted elsewhere, the engine/exhaust under the N-1 is the weak point; it falls off very quickly when touched. Therefore, I recommend purchasing the matching stand from Youfoy, and also because this ship looks fantastic as a display model, especially at this price.
Bullseye
This box was received with great excitement. My grandson was very happy with this birthday gift.
Fun Build with Minor Issues
Building the N-1 Starfighter was fun and gave me a lot of new pieces/ideas I can use for future builds. While it's a cool build, it can be hard to find a place to display it due to the size but there are mods online to remove the inventory cabin in the center; the bottom also has an annoyingly weak connection for what I assume is a thruster. If you can find it on sale I feel it's worth the price and experience, $60 feels like a bit much but that's because of licensing w/ Disney.
Mando N-1
This is a great build to compliment my Mandalorian ship collection. There are some great details on this build. I wish this ship had landing gear and it was retractable.
happy children playing
Good quality of the material
Missing pieces
We got this for Christmas along with several other Lego sets and almost every single one was missing at least one special piece. We have not had this issue in the past but the quality seems to be going down. Be mindful when purchasing as you may not get everything you need to complete your build.
The N-1 Starfighter - who needs a Razor Crest?
This is a model of the Mandalorian’s latest ship the N1 Starfighter, replacing the Mandalorian’s Razor Crest, piloted by the Mandalorian and featured in, you’ve guessed it, The Book of Boba Fett. Whilst this might be confusing to those unfamiliar with Disney Plus and perhaps buying for a relative or friend, essentially they went down a Marvel inspired crossover of different series, but rest assured this ship will no doubt take centre stage in the upcoming Mandalorian season 3.
The first thing to note is that the N1 Starfighter is big, larger then it’s 412 bricks would lead you to believe. I mean we’re not talking Death Star big but at 42cm in length this ship eclipses any other comparable ship in the Lego Star Wars range. Great for value and playability but maybe a little out of scale for a fighter, being only 2cm smaller then the current Millennium Falcon. But in the age of inflation perhaps we shouldn’t complain about getting more for less. And yet I have, it’s very confusing.
Build time is roughly 2-3 hours, is simple enough for youngsters still mastering their brick knowledge and the free Lego build app is always recommended. Features include a spring loaded shooter, a small cargo compartment and two cockpits, one for the title character and one for his small companion. Size aside this is a very accurate depiction of the on-screen ship and detail is up their with the best of the Lego Star Wars range.
The kit includes four minifigures, a good amount for the cost and brick count: The Mandalorian who comes with a jet pack and darksaber for the first time, Grogu, Peli Motto the loud but comically sound mechanic, and one of her worker droids. A well rounded set of characters for playability and for those looking to add to their Mandalorian collection.
All things considered this is a great set. Sure ‘it’s no Razor Crest’ but exceeded all expectations in detail, size, and minifigures and fans of the series and impatiently awaiting The Mandalorian season 3 will love it.
I have spoken
It's fun to build and play with.
Outstanding
Loved this build, fun & accurate to the show, only issue I have is the location of the missile as I’ve accidentally shot my cat when picking up the model
Oversized, Overpriced & Fragile
About a quarter way through this build I was getting concerned how long it was getting. By the time I was done, it feels really over-scaled and doesn’t feel like a sleek starfighter at all.
It could have been much smaller and in-turn much less money which would have been more satisfying.
The cockpit is a sloppy assembly with pieces catching on each other, and the rear of Mando’s cockpit is exposed on the sides.
Yes- that bottom engine basically falls right off when picking up the model.
Mando's modded N-1 Naboo Starfighter
This set was a nice enjoyable build although it was a bit strange getting two bags labelled 1 in a set with only three bags. When I opened the first bag to find only half of the Mandalorian I was thinking I might have to contact LEGO about missing peices, fortunately I soon noticed the second bag 1.
The starfighter was a decent build experience and I do like the finished article but 399 peices for £54 was a bit too much to ask really, if I hadn't had a voucher to offset some of the cost I'd have given this set a miss.
Nice mini figures in the set with Peli Motto and BD-72 being the only unique figures in the set. Now we're going to have to mention the Darksabre! C'mon LEGO, this really needs a nice new molded peice, not a standard lightsabre hilt with a black rod peice!!!
Playability is there but parts can fall off easily if you swoosh it around to vigorously. Single spring loaded missile is well hidden but it's not as sturdy as the Razor Crest that's for sure.
Not bad as a set, not good for the price I'm afraid.
I like the set but production seemed rushed
Overall this set was very fun to put together, I loved how both engines had enough differences that it wasn’t boring. Sometimes putting together similar parts in a kit becomes tedious. My major looming issues were with the thruster underneath not being reinforced and continued falling off. Landing gear would have remedied this. I also wasn’t happy with how the main cockpits shield was just pushed up against Grogu’s cockpit. I feel like a small separation from the two seats could have made the set look better. The instructions were a bit sloppy as well. I felt a consistent fumbling while building. Something I haven’t experienced in a very long time with a build. It seemed a bit rushed, especially with the bags being numbered 1,1, and 2. I spent far too long looking for mandos legs…which were in the other 1 bag. Something that was odd to me and stressed me out a bit. Overall I do like the set, the Tiny Grogu is adorable and I love the compartment for all the accessories (the dark saber seemed lazy though, wish we got a custom mold for the blade rather than just a black pole.)
