LEGO Star Wars set 75162, Y-Wing Microfighter, is a compact interpretation of the Rebel Y-wing starfighter. Released in 2017, it belongs to the Star Wars theme and contains 90 pieces with 1 Rebel pilot minifigure.
This microfighter turns a familiar Star Wars vehicle into a small, play focused model. The Y-wing is associated with the Rebel Alliance, and this set presents it in a simplified form, keeping the recognizable outline rather than attempting the detail of a larger display build.
The build is compact and straightforward, with a place for the pilot and parts that suggest the long body and side engine shapes of the starfighter.
The set suits microfighter collectors, small Star Wars displays and hands on play with a vehicle that is easy to handle. Within the Star Wars theme, it belongs with compact interpretations of well known ships, useful for expanding a Rebel focused selection without requiring much display space.
