The piloted fighter features a cockpit with lots of interior room, a soft plastic joystick(to prevent breakages) and a bubble canopy. This fighter is highly reminiscent of the ROTS Jedi Starfighter, except it lacks the opening wings. I wish it had the opening wings as I liked those on the ROTS starfighters. If anything this fighter can be seen as bridging the gap between the episode II and III starfighters. It's got influences from both.

Despite being quite light on the hands, the piloted fighter is very sturdy. The vertical stabilizer is made from soft plastic, which is also rigid and prevents the fin from being snapped off.

Another reason why I wish this fighter had the pop up wings from the ROTS bird is because it would add to the look. The piloted fighter looks decent but could have been better; more interesting. It reminds me of a small ship from those classic shoot 'em up arcade games(SHUMPs).

Another thing that reminds me not only of the ROTS starfighter but also of the classic TIE Fighter is the cockpit from the front. Looks familiar doesn't it? If only it was molded in clear plastic with painted frames. Instead we just get solid plastic, with paint.
