LEGO Star Wars has long abstained from releasing a YAVIN 4 Rebel Base playset but that has finally changed! Set 75365 is the massive LEGO YAVIN IV set we've been waiting for... or is it? While it has an incredible 12 Minifigures, many LEGO Star Wars fans have pointed out the build looks too simplistic for $170. My review should help you see if this set is worth spending your money on!

This set is fine but to me it's just an upscaled 4+ set, the temple is very basic in shaping and not very appealing and the tree looks like it was taken directly from a juniors set. I like the chibi y-wing but the chibi slave one and tie advanced from previous years were much more effective in comparison. The figs are solid and the actual pieces for medals is an amazing inclusion. 7/10 imo

It’s a cool set since it was a once scrapped idea to see it become official. I would just say that tree for the outlook post could’ve definitely used more detail like maybe a tree you build with smaller pieces than those big parts. Other than that, I’m glad LEGO brought a new Original Trilogy set to the table.

This could have been the Mos Eisley replacement set if they had approached Yavin as a master builder series. The location aimed at an adult audience. Especially as this timeline for Yavin is from original film. A more complex, larger build. More detail. More vehicles. More minifigs to add volume to the scenes. Perfect accompaniment to Mos Eisley. Next a new reimagining MBS of the Death Star and you have the three main locations of the film covered.

For those of you getting this as a gift for a kid, the 4+ A Wing set that retired not too long ago goes EXTREMELY well with this set. The A Wing scales well with the Y Wing, and the A Wing looks really good to boot for what it is. It also comes with a green Rebel pilot to help round out the different type of characters you can have at Yavin. The A-Wing even comes with a Yavin side build. It's just a great way to make it look like you have a fleet to go with this base. The A Wing should fit through the hangar doors as well. Any kid would love to get these two sets together. Luckily, that retired A Wing is still not too pricey. If they have the Darth Vader's castle, they can attack this base with Vader's tie and some stormies. Or vice versa. This is what Star Wars has been missing; big playsets like the Battle of Endor, Darth Vader's Castle, and this.

Now if this set was $80 than that’s different, but $170 is insane. Can people seriously say they’d pay $30 more than At Te for thisv

Love how you used a blue saber blade instead of the included white pointer stick. Very nice. But seriously, What are these lego prices I'm sure they are accounting for both inflation and people that buy them on discount. Those are minifigures I wish I could get but not with this price. No bricklink in my area either, mexico has very little variety when it comes to shops and buying international... might as well pay the full price of the set at that point. So discount it is.

So yeah anyway it sucks he died in the movie but I'm glad to honor him in minifig form and in my head canon he survived and was dancing on Endor in Jedi with the Ewoks.

So the Y-Wing on this really makes me wonder something that NOBODY ever critiques, but is such a huge part of a ship’s character. Lego CONSISTENTLY gets engine colors wrong on Star Wars sets. All the time. And it’s so obvious what actual colors they’re supposed to be, even in concept art. So not really sure why they always use incorrect colors. The Ghost has blue engines in the new set and you touched on the Y-Wing here.

The reason I'm going to pass on buying this one (even though it's an OT set and, therefore, within the only type of Star Wars sets I now buy) isn't so much the 170€ per se. It's the 170€ for a set that just doesn't look good as a display piece. I think they focused ao much on the play aspect of it that it ended up alienating a portion of its target audience (adults). Oh well. Maybe one day we'll get a more detailed, less 4+ styled, Yavin 4 set.

This is the kind of set they should've held off on to eventually make a MBS version. Making it for kids just makes it look painfully bland and certainly not worth the heavy price tag ($240 USD here in Mexico wtf).
