Your B-Wing is definitely superior to the Lego one. As I said, the set is a
fair representation of the ship (minus the engine compartment), although the
ship itself is a bit unsubstantial compared to the "real" thing. The Lego
version just isn't bulky enough. But, the Lego version is redeemed, IMO, by the
fact that it looks good (has a nice color scheme), has some neat parts, and is
just fun to play with. For what it is, the B-Wing is just a really cool set. I
admit that my glowing review may be colored by the fact that it was a really
great unexpected suprise to actually have a great unexpected suprise (I picked
out all of my other Lego presents.) Believe it or not, it has become my
favorite SW set (with the A-Wing coming in a close 2nd.)
