I agree that the A-wing is too small, and maybe looks a little bit
unsubstantial, but I've decided that I really like it. I especially appreciate
the fact that the double tails are made out of bricks. This set is Old School.
It reminds me of the classic sets of my good-old-days; 74-77'. That is why I
like the Landspeeder; that set is pretty much how I imagine that Lego would
have
done it in 1978 or 79'.
