Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter
Is a little disappointed that the slope piece are not printed but instead sticker. However, the republic emblem are printed.

. . . .

You can see one black button right below the cockpit for you to push so you can kill Plo Koon. ^^

I suppose this are blaster cannon that are placed on both side at the front and there's the printed republic emblem.

.

Like the other Jedi Starfighter, this one have landing gear too.

.

Finally, there are stud for you to attach your astromech droid.

The cockpit are a little different from the other two which is there is no printed monitor, all are sticker added details and Plo Koon are not attached but instead sit on a technic pin which you can push to eject him out of the cockpit.

At the side of the cockpit is a holder for his lightsaber, wonder why on earth Plo Koon place his lightsaber outside the fighter.

Extra pieces
We left only two pieces of bricks after assembling the starfighter.

.

Completed model
All three starfighter are differently design by TLG and all three have different functions. Plo Koon's Jedi Starfighter actually not bad, just that there are too many sticker added details.

cmplt

Playability: 8/10 New eject function.
Design : 8/10 Too many sticker added details.
Price : 4/10 Is expensive here.
Overall: 7/10 New function, new fig but different design from the previous two JSF.

Awesome!!! Nice review. I've got the other two CloneWars star fighters, this is the only one I haven't got. I'm hoping to get it for Christmas. Can't wait for the next review.
