Please David make a tutorial on how to improve this gunship. I feel like it can modified somehow to maybe get the proper double sliding doors and to replace the stupid stud shooters with a custom ball turret for the wings (like on Brick Vault's Republic Gunship). Plus, there appears to be a connection point for ball turrets or flood lights to be attached, which LEGO could have included and put in the empty hull space of the Gunship. Also, putting aside the inaccuracies with Fox's minifig, it is too bad that LEGO decided to not include Thorn in the set, who is accurate to the Clone Wars arc.

Having double doors wouldn't necessarily fix this though. For one, the door which would swing to the front would add extra bulk to the front side of the ship, which will ruing the entire look of the ship if you want to display it with the troop bay open AND might even limit access to the troop bay because it would be taking space from where you would usually put your hands to gain access inside And two, the space behind the supposed second door might still not be all that accessible due to being behind wings and all that...

To be honest this is way more accurate then the 2013. This is much closer to actual minifigure scale, and the wing pods were never supposed to be placed were troops sat and fired, they were supposed to be wing lazers and that’s what they are. They’re given an oval shape and I think they work wonderfully. Honestly my only gripe is it should have had 1 more shock trooper and and the internal front door section should have something but I’ll admit it being empty allows a lot of possibility for customization. As for the doors not working. I’m 99% that’s merely a stabilization thing. They close all the way and look good closed and open. Having two doors probably caused a lot of issues with the first set of doors and didn’t line up right so they took the ‘sturdier and plays better’ route over the ‘looks more authentic’ route and I think that’s fine here

@@user-op8fg3ny3j Lego revenue goes way up. "Increased material cost" is provisional, nothing happened yet, and if it doesn't then they won't compensate by going cheaper again. Just boycott with your wallets and buy from retailers. Very obviously there is a strategy of making us pay much larger sums on the lego website, pretending free delivery + those VIP discounts are worth it. I miss the days when Lego had to rely on toy stores to sell the sets, since lego only made their wholesale profits and retail stores chose the price that the end consumer would pay. Retail stores know that a widely desired product needs to be affordable in order to create new collectors who want to pick up more and more sets. Lego's new formula is blatant theft of the adult, die-hard collectors who keep buying no matter how high the prices go up.

I like the smaller size, it scales better with minifigures and looks just right alongside the new AT-TE. The doors are different, LEGO decided on a more simplified design which works better as a play feature, at the cost of accuracy, I have no doubt the community will come up with alternative designs. The proportions and shape overall are really good in my opinion. Still can't help but think it would look better in the original colour scheme, though.

Supposedly the gunship and atte are about the same size from what I researched so this smaller ship is more accurate scale wise technically.....
@LegoStarWarsBBrix Жыл бұрын
They definitely could have gone with a better colour scheme I do agree with that, I liked the clone wars episode these were in the colour and unique niche nature of the set really plays to the clone wars sets themselves and it’s a good sign lego are willing to do something like this. Can’t wait to get it in hand to review myself.

I don't mind the smaller scale, bigger is not always better. Lego did miss a huge opportunity with this, it should have been a Plo's Bros version with Plo, Wolf and the wolfpack. That would have sold out day one for sure.

There is a mismatch between the size and the price - either make it bigger, or make it cheaper. The price is higher than for the new AT-TE™Walker - that's madness.
@themonteaglenavy8513 Жыл бұрын
I love the size change, because it fits better with mocs. The older ones are just so big that it becomes difficult to make it fit anywhere. The new one has a more accurate size for a fig, and I love the color scheme. The door thing, and the wing turrets are a definite problem, but I suspect it will be fairly easy to mod it.

I actually like that this thing is downsized (yes, I like minifig scale'ish stuff) BUT I hate the functionality of this thing. Had they moved the handle further back, it would be easier to carry. Had they split the door, the troop area would have been more accessible. So I don't think the size itself is an issue, just that lego dropped the ball on the functionality of it. Can't wait to mod this thing into a better model though!

Nice review and I’m thankful for your honest opinions of the set and telling LEGO that they are capable of doing much better. I’d a prefer a white Gunship but I’m thankful for this different variant. I also think LEGO should have included some kind of tools or weapons rack and maybe a speeder for the empty space. I am also wondering if LEGO did not catch the pink hue on Fox’s chest when designing or was it too late for them to make any changes? Maybe LEGO should implement more quality control or a better process? Overall, I’m still excited for this set and I know LEGO can do way better in terms of quality.

I personally prefer the old gunship scale as well but i feel the smaller gunship size works. Lego fans have been requesting a smaller gunship as the 2002-2013 gunship were oversized, so I don't really think its a bad thing.

I understand the “too small” complaint but the previous play scale gunships were all slightly larger than minifig scale so this one is closer to minifig scale.

I actually like the smaller size the figures standing next to the gunship or inside don’t look so tiny, only a few minor complaints is as u said the doors for the troop bay is tiny should have made them go back further, I like the one door live action design rather then the 2008 animated o Version. Foxes torso is messed up should be white and not pink for starters and red underneath the breast plate. I wish they included at least another clone trooper as well. They cheap out on the accessory part like speeder bike and Bacta tank so a few more clones would have made up for that imo
