Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar, Day 18: Y-Wing Starfighter

Today's build is the BTL-B Y-wing starfighter (that's a mouthful, eh? Personally, I'd prefer a BLT-B Y-wing starfighter...) (har har har). Anakin Skywalker flew this particular type of Y-wing during the Clone Wars, so you won't actually see this ship in any of the original 6 movies. The BTL-B did show up in the TV series Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. :o)

I don't know why, but those two little jet engines sticking out the back like that remind me of turkey legs...

There are two versions of the ywing, the clone wars one, and the orginal one. Here is pick to the one that showed up in the movies:
