Y-wing

Y-wings are bomber spacecraft used by the Galactic Republic in the battle against the Confederacy. The ships are equipped with missiles and the ability to transform into mechs, and are known to be piloted by Clone Pilots and Anakin Skywalker.

The name of the Y-wings seems to be derived from them being roughly Y-shaped, and they likely have some relation to X-wings and V-wings.

Crossovers

[edit]
This ship will inevitably be blown up.
  • Y-wing Pilot to Y-wing (2010)
    • Accessories: Vehicle nose/gun, missile, 2 blaster pistols
The Y-wing toy transforms from a white and yellow starship to a robot mode based on a Clone Pilot (specifically "Matchstick" from The Clone Wars), and features a firing two-pronged missile in its nose and flip-out landing gear. In robot mode, the nose detaches to form a handheld missile launcher. The figure also carries two small blaster pistols that fit into holsters on its hips.


However, this ship will be fine. Being piloted by a title character does that.
  • Anakin Skywalker to Y-wing Bomber (2010)
    • Accessories: Vehicle nose/gun, missile, blaster pistols, lightsaber
A retool of the Y-wing Pilot toy, changing the head and upper torso to resemble Anakin. The robot's torso and arms are also colored after Anakin, while the vehicle mode is still white and yellow (albeit with a new paint layout). Unlike the Y-wing Pilot, Anakin also comes with a lightsaber to wield in robot mode, though it cannot be stored in vehicle mode.

[edit]
Blown up again.
  • Clone Trooper Pilot to Y-wing (2011)
    • Accessories: Blaster Rifle
The Y-wing toy transforms from a white and yellow starship to a robot mode based on a Clone Pilot. This version of the Y-wing pilot is a smaller size class (Similar to the Cyberverse Commander Class). He comes with a large blaster rifle. He features a panel on his underside (one that is similar to the ones found on class III Darth Vader/Anakin's turbine cannons) which flips up to act as a handle for class III figures to hold him in ship mode as a weapon (though it ends up just looking like he's just holding a starfighter).


Fine again. See a pattern?
  • Anakin Skywalker to Y-wing Fighter (2011)
    • Accessories: Lightsaber
A retool of the class I Clone Trooper Pilot with a new head designed to resemble Anakin. This figure trades the large blaster for a lightsaber which can store under either of his large turbines in vehicle mode.
