9495 Gold Leader's Y-wing Starfighter was a Star Wars-themed set released in 2012.

Background[]

The Y-Wing Starfighter is a main ship of the Rebel Alliance. It was used in the destruction of the first Death Star in A New Hope and was also vital in the destruction of the second one too. It was used mainly as a bombing ship because of its huge payload.

Notes[]

  • In LEGO's official descriptions, R5-F7 is incorrectly referred to as R2-A3, a droid owned by Wedge Antilles.
  • This is also part of a super pack.
  • This appeared in Ace Assault II in the new levels section.
  • Interestingly, the ceremonial outfit princess Leia wears here is not shown until the end of the movie, at which point this ship has been destroyed and Dutch Vander killed; this is one of a number of cases of artistic license taken by Lego in various Star Wars sets.
  • This Y-Wing would later appear in Star Wars Rebels, in which its acquisition by the Rebel Alliance is depicted.
