The Republic Gunship LEGO should've made.. 😱

[@yozzzeh]

It does look great in white, but I might be one of the few weird human beings who prefer the ship in red, since we don't get this kind of deviation often. Usually it's just the same thing but upgraded(or downsized) each time

[@ECHO_212th]

Finally, i thought i was the only weird human who liked the red gunship, the white one looks great with all the modifications, but i prefer the simplicity of the original one 😅

[@shatter_point]

I agree full heartedly. The variation in style is a breath of fresh air with all the repeats we get.

[@anthonypotamitis7049]

I personally don't dislike the colour, I dislike the size and the door part of the set to be honest. I never owned the previous one and it looked so good.

[@big_bertha_studios_0912]

Weird aah human 👽

[@JoJo-oc8zf]

Yeah I think more legion specific sets are cool and gives variety

[@JKBrickworks]

Whoa, those are some sweet mods. I prefer the colour conversion as well, and I love the bubble turrets. Very nicely designed!

I like the turrets you added, I think making some of those spot light turret/addons would have been cool for the guard version

[@Fanninjd_23]

Considering the second hand market of gunship prices, $215 for a white gunship is actually the cheapest version of the gunship you could get right now! And I prefer the smaller gunship size, the old ones were always a bit large in my opinion, especially how high the ceiling was for the minfigs

They should come this Tuesday after Thanksgiving and the other standard parts should sometime after Christmas. I’m really looking forward to seeing how it looks. I hope it looks great.

Awesome video. I remember watching this channel when it was still Legoboy12345678 and seeing the clone army video in 2012 when it came out - that was a favourite YT video back when I was a kid. Really brilliant to have been here the whole journey through Kashyyyk, Scarif and Crait and looking forward to what the future holds! Keep up the excellent work David.

[@danielerrico7411]

The good ol days with him and pizzamovies

[@danielpye7738]

I will be frank. It looks better in red. I have modded mine adding more white where needed even the carry handle is now mostly white and it looks great. I think it’s a superb set easily modded to taste and the only real “bad” issue is Commander Fox being pink instead of white. Other than that the build itself is great and lends itself superbly to customise which a lot of folks enjoy doing anyway.

[@DarkBluishGray]

Love the beam ball turrets. Very cool conversion!

[@Darthmonk864]

Maybe its just because ive been buying lego star wars since i was a child when the phantom menace came out. But im happy when they change things up. Im personally not an army builder anymore. I have a lot of financial responsibilities as an adult now and lego has released a minifig scale gunship three times now prior to this. I got 2/3. I personally dont need a third slightly differently sized gunship. But what ive never had is a unique variant gunship. Which people used to beg for back when clone wars was the primary focus of lego SW. Theres kind of a conundrum with lego. Theres always new people starting collections and Its gotten much more popular in the last five years to buy and collect lego. So either lego will stay in a perpetual cycle of constantly remaking the same ships so new people can obtain one at a lower cost. Or my hope was that they would start doing this and making variants. And the beauty of lego is that its interchangeable. It is a building toy and i applaud SolidBrix for displaying creative solutions for people who would want that standard white gunship.

[@-supguys-]

He explained why he hasn't released the flie yet go to his past stream of "rebuilding the Jedi temple" and go to the time stamp of 19:40 and there he will explain why it is not out yet.

Glad we finally got answer but a pinned comment here explaining it would have been nice not all of us saw explanation but glad it’s not forgotten about

I come here every day to upvote your comments in solidarity, whilst we wait for the XML file. Thanks for the update and for taking the time to keep us informed, it’s good to know that it’s not been forgotten about and hopefully we won’t have to wait much longer

[@Smokey_Smokes710]

I don't care for white tbh, I might eventually do a red/black color conversion when I pick one up

[@BigBadChief1337]

Thanks for the video! I have to ask though, are you still planning on linking the XML file for the Bricklink parts list? I’ve bought a set solely to do this colour swap and it’d be nice to know if the parts list is still coming or if I should go ahead and try to replicate it myself. I know a few of us in the comments would appreciate an update.

[@DaBigDwink]

Any update on the XML file?

[@KrypticElement]

Nice swap to the stock Republic paintjob, looks great! I just made mine Imperial based off The Bad Batch

[@-supguys-]

I just made my order it came out to be about 61 dollars on Lego's pick a brick wall it included the double door mod so I can assume the price of just the color swap would be about 50-55 I can also assume it will be the same with brick link. IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW LEGO HAS A BLACK FRIDAY DEAL WERE THE 5 DOLLAR DISCOUNT IS 75% OFF MEANING INSTEAD OF 600 INSIDER POINTS IT'S LIKE 150.

[@DISLIKEPRIDE]

Hey what did you do for the doors? The pieces he listed I physically can’t color swap the doors

Hey have you received everything from your order yet? I was curious to know how the color swap went with the file before I go ahead with mine haha

[@the23rdradiotower41]

I think this is a prime candidate for the alternative colors lego has been doing, maybe having a white one like this with P1 clones, maybe plo koons with some new Wolfpack troopers. I think it could be pretty good and I could definitely see them selling well

[@ReconFire13]

Guess we will never see that XML file

[@CherryJoe5]

So nobody realized the coruscant guard gunship was in the clone wars episode when commander thorn had his last stand not all gunships were the same color

[@dreydenplays8004]

The white looks great, but I’m glad LEGO made a variant instead. They already made 4 in white, it’s nice that they brought a different one that is valid in the clone wars universe.

[@BryanholmesRJ]

I appreciate LEGO for going a different route in terms of variant with the Gunship, but I think they should have came back with the standard colored Gunship for those who missed out on it back in 2013 and then come out with this new variant. I also wish the ship was a bit bigger.

[@dogelord673]

I’m pretty sure I’m in the minority but I really like the look/color to the new gunship. I’m kinda glad they gave us a variation of an existing vehicle as to not just get the same stuff every 10 years and it was executed almost perfectly. My only gripe is that I wish it were as big as its predecessor and that commander fox were a little better/accurate

[@The_og_moonwalker]

It does look good, but the biggest problem is that we can’t buy a regular gunship and the ones that we can get are extremely expensive because they’re retired

[@Tyrant18able]

I always enjoy a Recolor build of any starwars set. Gunships look difficult to rebuild into a MOC any capacity. Modding a lego set to fit your needs can be satisfying indeed.

[@ikstudios2853]
