Nah, just look in different stores! My store told me that there are three
different packages, stores could order from TLG. My store didn't have the Y-
wing either, but a BartSmit (toystore) nearby did have it, but lacked the X-
wing.

I built my snowspeeder, but didn't come across that one. Perhaps I should have
another look...

You're right! The pilot can't even move his arms to pilot the craft.

But if you look at the instructions, his right hand is black. And on the box
also. So, you just have to swap his hands (pull the hands straight out) and
you have a genuine Luke.

I like them also. Especially because of the size of the models. Comparing the
size of the X-wing to the 6887, which is also a one-man attack-ship, the X-
wing is way bigger!
