Out of all of these the 2013 is the best imo, while it would definitely be changed a few ways today it's the best and most accurate representation in playscale that LEGO has released so far

Completely agree with what he said that if they made the newest one the same size as the previous versions and designed it with more and better features it would’ve been way better than it is maybe even the best release. Instead it’s as good as the 2002 overall at best in my opinion it’s sadly the worst one released as the ranking score also shows in the video.

Playfeature Addendum: The top of the 2002 set is connected by a few technic pins so it’s able to come apart relatively easily-making it a pseudo Dropship for the “Command Station” hidden within the nose.

[@TheFirstCurse1]

Yep which makes it the best in terms of play features. It's 2 sets in 1.

[@FRYDAY]

I don’t understand why the helmet holes on the new troopers is such a big deal. Nearly every other variation of clone troopers/Mandalorian helmets have holes and it doesn’t seem to be a problem with them…

[@javanmills6152]

It is purely the implementation. All the other ones don't stick out. I honestly wouldn't have half the issue with them if they just removed where they are supposed to go. It is really jarring seeing where they are where they're supposed to be. IMO the ultimate middle ground is removing the real location so it is easier to overlook.

[@FAT_SUSAN]

Telling Lego that they are bad would just be a limiting imaginations and if you’re going to make an army out of hundreds, why would you care about the difference of a millimeter

[@Azact]

Because it sticks out alot when looking at them from the front, and they are lazy and use the same helmet mold as they did for the cody in 2022 at-te so now every clone has helmet holes because they dont wanna make another mold without them.

[@AClassicBrick]

I gotta stick my head out for the 2002 gunship. It has an amazing Minifigure lineup with actually enough Clone Troopers to man the ship. Also even though not in-universe accurate it has such great creative play features. I think that the inaccuracies in those can be immediatly looked over, given that the LEGO Designers probably had to work with concept arts of the models, since the movie did release in 2002. The ship can drop off its underside as a base and act as sort of a drop ship. Its great! 🙂

[@viperson9818]

I think 2023 is close. Hopefully the designers hear us and a classic style gunship in like 1-2 years will overall be an improvement from the 2023 coruscant gunship with their new style of approach and size. Currently the 2023 set feels incomplete. (Darn Disney for making canon that standard p2 troopers can pilot these gunships.

[@CloneCommanderCrater1102]

It makes perfect sense that pilots can wear regular clone armor when piloting ships in atmosphere. Literally the ONLY reason clone pilots wear specialized helmets is to act as life support during space flight, which they very much do not need when flying in atmo.

[@ninopineau-chapell738]

[@LynCubed]

As someone who has never owned a Lego Gunship, these are my thoughts on each of them: 2002: looks good for the time, jedi bob is awesome, and I love how the clones look, I don’t like the balls that fold out, droidekas are awesome 2008: the best looking one imo, plo koon is epic, looks roomy and that command station looks awesome, the little monkey guy one the side is cool looking 2013: 10/10 minifigs, cockpit is an improvement, i still don’t like those little balls that fold out, I miss super battle droids, flick fire missiles look silly on the top 2023: shock troopers look great (idrc about helmet holes), looks a little lazily made, palpetine looks great, padme is cool but I just wish they use the 2013 face, not a big fan of the replacements for the ball turrets on the wings, seems to be extremely sturdy.

[@DaffyDuckFanClub]

I find it funny how no one mentions that the old Cody had a pauldron and kama which is super inaccurate, not to mention a gray visor. There’s even some sets where Rex had a visor instead of range finder. But only NOW Lego is “lazy” so silly.

[@cobblerboi1820]

Because NOW lego is making more money, is able to make better designs, and also charging more, but did I mention also no cloths and smaller sets by the date (With a few exceptions), they have no room to be doing what they lacked in 2013 as a regular in 2023

[@Azact]

Because the clones were as good as it could be for that time period, they got no excuses nowadays with better technology, so they are lazy. Back then it was the best they could do with their technology of that time. Nowadays they have far better technology and clone printing and molds peaked in the mid 2010s yet they started devolving after that and became lazy. Your comment makes no sense and if anyones silly its you

[@Azact]

What a stupid comment, back then it wasnt obviously accurate but that was because of their limited technology of that time and they still made it as good as they could. Nowadays they charge alot more, and have bettet technology and more money, yet still messes up clone designs even though they perfected it around 2014. This is laziness and greed. So they werent lazy back then, just limited by technology, now they got no excuse with making inaccurate clones other than being LAZY

2002 was my favorite lego set as a kid. Was the crown jewel of my childhood collection. I can't argue it being better than the 2013 set, but Lego doesn't really give us sets like this anymore, because of battle packs and stuff. 2002 will always hold a special place in my heart.

[@batsamd]

I ended up selling my 2008 RGS just because it was so big and I kept knocking off the front turrets. The current CG RGS being smaller than past versions actually has me interested in the set, but I’d prefer classic colors. Surprised you didn’t mention that the 2008 RGS had alternate nose art stickers, I would consider that a play feature, the buyer gets to choose what nose art they wanted.

I had the 2013 gunship, I got it for Christmas and I absolutely loved it. I would come home from school and spend hours building it since I wasn't a very fast builder at the time and there was a lot of bags. One day, my dad was cleaning the house when I was gone, hit my shelf that had it on the top, it fell and turned into a crashed gunship. I've never recovered from it and to this day I get extremely paranoid with people touching my legos now. I might buy a new one for my new apartment by myself just to recuperate.

10 years ago for my 10th birthday I chose the 2013 Gunship over the AT-TE set that came out at the time. I really wanted both. So when it came to Xmas and I asked for the AT-TE I was upset to hear it was already out of production (I was young and wasn’t informed on Lego and when exactly they released new waves and stuff) (now that I’m thinking about it it might’ve been the Gunship for that years Xmas and the at-te for my birthday the next year) 10 years later I’m so glad I chose the Gunship. It’s the best looking, and best overall Gunship. In addition to Lego releasing a basically identical AT-TE to the 2013 one. And now I can finally have both. I was so happy the AT-TE had the same cockpit build as I thought that was perfect with the older one. I remember staying up late while on holiday to order it online the day of its release and annoyed at slow lodge Wi-Fi

[@Hippolestrian]

2013 will always be my favorite, but one thing you have to give props to lego for is releasing a clone wars era Padme and Palpatine in the most recent iteration. Before this, I'm fairly certain you hsd to either get the venator playscale or Palpatine's arrest for a Palpatine figure, and Padme only came in the Malevolence set. The two shock troopers are really decent in my opinion, helmet holes being a moot point because it's lego. My biggest issue with minifigures in the most recent one is that Fox is supposed to be Thorn in the episodes from which it's featured. Despite this, I plan on getting the 2023 gunship for it's minifigures and for the tons of red pieces and republic Insignias that can be used for tons of Mocs. It's not a set that should be bought for accuracy, however it has a ton of value for getting moc bricks and minifigures for other clone wars era builds.

If they were to ever make a regular gunship Lego could’ve done the same as what they did for the most recent AT-TE, which is: include maybe four or three regular phase one clone troopers, two clone pilots and maybe some B1 battle droid’s along with one Droideka

I miss having alternative builds on the back of the box.

Good job! Very nice comparison. I regret that I only have the last one. Thanks! Greetings from Poland.

Which last one😑

2008 gets docked a point for the engines at the top having gaps. The manual made it seem like it shouldn't and as a kid I thought I had a faulty set.

2008 one is my favorite.

the CG gunship is so unimaginative compared to the 2008 there’s so much less going on it’s quite lifeless actually
