@@ten_vojta4356 problem with that version is that the doors interfere with the bubble turrets it’s annoying they can’t come up with a solid canon design

[@PixelPieceProductions]

If you want to get technical, here's why: The Republic manufactured 2 kinds of gunships; The LAAT (Low Altitude Assault Transport) Gunship, the UCS set here, and the Republic Attack Gunship, from the Clone Wars show (the 2008 lego set). The LAAT was meant for planet-side transportation, so it included more weapons like the ball turrets, but it could not go into space since the doors didn't close fully. The attack gunship was made to transport troops either through air, or in space.

[@fase1doughnut]

[@brianorozco1074]

I agree

[@julijan2653]

Yeah

[@vidieitis]

Normally I'd agree, but the gunship seems to be such a fan favourite set that making a UCS one makes sense to me. From what I've seen, gunship sets get the fans more excited than any other repeats. And from a personal point of view, the first gunship was my first Star Wars set, started a lifelong love of Lego Star Wars, so at 25 years old a UCS version is like the best possible "adults" Lego set I could have

I've heard a lot of comments that legocon was bad because Lego misunderstood their audience. I think that you're actually misunderstanding LEGO's target audience for that type of event, and that would explain why they didn't reveal this at that event. Lego is a toy company. They make some insanely big sets for adults, but you're kidding yourself if you think that the majority of their brand is dedicated to adults. Legocon was just an exhibition aimed at kids. You weren't the target audience. So for them to reveal a massive UCS set at an event aimed for kids makes no sense, when they could instead reveal the newest playsets.

I disagree with their argument about the minifigures. Obviously people aren’t buying it for the minifigures, but if you’re paying as much as that I’d expect something special in that regard. And the minifigures would only be rare and exclusive if they never make them again. I was a bit insulted when they said it doesn’t matter that they included a commander instead of a pilot, since all most people remember is that the pilot had yellow on him. Then they threatened us saying that if we don’t buy it they’ll not make any more prequel ucs sets. I understand Hans being a bit upset about people complaining about this, when he’s put so much effort into the design of the model, which I commend him for, he did an incredible job. But they should’ve have asked us what figures we wanted in the set if they weren’t going to listen. I only complain because I really care about Lego Star Wars, and I want it to be better.

the only thing I would have wanted more would be to make it be able to change between episode 2 and clone wars variants with things like the ball turrets being detachable and an addon to the door so it can fully close, (just because I think the clone wars variant looks better, and I think most people like the clone wars more than episode 2)

just the back part... wish they would've included doors that could be swapped with the pods, assuming that would be possible. Hopefully the next playset has full doors

[@dpswets]

@@slashinswingin4369 Good idea. I've just been reading up on the LAAT and can't find anything about those front doors and why they're only there on several occacions. They could use giant lights as well instead of the turrets as seen in the Umbara campaign.

[@NCC1371]

@@dpswets I think the easiest explanation is the republic kept the LAAT platform but modified it very early in the war to be more modular so they could equip and remove equipment more easily to fit whatever mission so they didn’t have to make more specialized versions than they already had.

[@dpswets]

@@NCC1371 Good point, that's what I think as well. Seems the most logical.

[@swoopstudios1104]

@@dpswets the front doors that you see in the Clone Wars series is for when they launch the gunships from space. Those LAAT's are modified for space flight and the double doors allow for a pressure tight seal in the cargo bay

Honestly if we get a P2 Cody in a battle pack or something next year I think it will be a lot better than having it bound to a 350$ set or going single for 100$ because of the exclusiveness. The message that we need a Cody should have sticked and I think we might get him soon.

[@christopherstein2024]

@@hawkskirata8939 You mean 2005 when he was introduced in Star Wars clone wars and Revenge of the Sith came out. We never got the original design in 16 years. I have hopes now because Grievous starfighter came out before the surveys with the USC set and all the communication between the designers and community icons like solidbricks and more. The designers mentioned that they don't want to put very desirable minifigures into USC sets because it makes them too exclusive. So maybe they really recognized the feed back but are waiting for a better set to publish. Any way who really knows. It's LEGO.

[@ForgedinLego]

I think they made the right decision though, its a UCS, its not really designed for play, and the "minifig" scale gunships we got in the past are already a bit oversized

[@vakuzar]

@@ForgedinLego yeah but I think that's what made the melenum falcon so unbelievably iconic. It was exactly to scale with every missed detail and all perfect, I think that's the appeal to me of UCS. No corners cut, not just big.
