The X-Wing Fighter is a starfighter, frequently associated with Luke Skywalker and the Rebel Alliance.
Toys
Star Wars Transformers
- Luke Skywalker / X-wing Fighter (2006)
- Accessories: 4 missiles, lightsaber, Luke Skywalker figure
- Luke Skywalker's mech can transform from an X-Wing starfighter into a robot crafted in his likeness. The placement of the cockpit in robot mode gives it a see-through chest in which the small pilot figure can sit. Due to the transformation scheme, the arms have a good deal of articulation, including rotating wrists. The shoulders, however, can only rotate backward, making some poses difficult (lightsaber duels are out of the question). The legs are attached to a ball joint and the hips may be raised or lowered. The X-Wing has pressure-launch missile launchers located on the end of each wing which can be removed and held in the robot's hands, as well as a lightsaber that can clip onto the robot's belt or be held in its hands.
- Later releases of this mold saw a running-change variant wherein the ball-jointed thighs were replaced with smaller universal joints. These joints were less versatile and give the figure an awkward stance. The change was made due to many units thighs snapping off at the ball-joint because of a design flaw.
Crossovers
- Luke Skywalker to X-wing Fighter (2009)
- Accessories: 4 missiles, lightsaber
- The X-wing toy was repackaged for the Crossovers toyline, using the version with the new hip joints. The Luke mini-figure was removed, as pilots are not included with Crossovers toys.
