WHY IS THIS SET SO UNIQUE?  This set is perhaps one of the two LEGO sets where a life-size replica (42 times the size of this set) was created (see third photo) using (mostly) LEGO bricks.  It was on display in New York and various Legoland.  That life-size replica has 5.335 million pieces and looks just like this LEGO set.

This LEGO Star Wars set, number 9493, features the iconic X-Wing Starfighter from Episode IV. With 560 pieces made of durable plastic, this complete set is a must-have for any collector or fan of the franchise. The set includes two LEGO characters – a pilot and a star – as well as a lightsaber and a weapon. Ideal for children ages 8-14, this set measures 18.9 inches in length, 11.1 inches in height, and 2.91 inches in width. Released in 2012, this LEGO set is still in new, unopened condition and is a perfect addition to any LEGO or Star Wars collection.
