LEGO Star Wars Republic Gunship

Product Information

In this review, I will be taking a look at 75021 Republic Gunship, which was perhaps the most anticipated set of the entire Summer 2013 Star Wars line-up. Much like many of the other sets from this wave, it is only fairly recently that LEGO last produced a Republic Gunship model ( 7676) which was released in 2008. As one of the most prevalent and iconic vehicles from the Prequel Trilogy, previous editions of the Republic Gunship have proved to be very popular indeed, and I would imagine that this set will continue in this vein as it only improves on the earlier models in my opinion. Attractive flame yellowish orange markings distinguish this Clone Commander from standard Clone Troopers, presumably based upon Commander Ponds from the Battle of Geonosis. The colour scheme looks superb and substantially improves upon the equivalent from 75019 AT-TE, where the commander's armour displayed brighter yellow decoration.

My favourite kind of construction is one where you build a section as indicated in the instruction manual and it will only become apparent what its purpose is when you attach it to the rest of the model. Just such an occasion took place here for me while constructing the innards of the vehicle and there are plenty of SNOT (studs not on top) building techniques as well as a nice diversity of orientations for construction. Construction of Ultimate Collector Series models traditionally concludes with the display stand and this process is no exception. The reliance upon Technic elements matches earlier designs, although this model requires considerable support and the stand is therefore significantly wider than comparable examples. Nevertheless, the structure remains consistent between them. The Bomber has never seen a UCS release, only has one minifig release, and mostly exists in mini form (including its first iteration, which was split between four other sets). It wouldn’t be Christmas without a LEGO Star Wars advent calendar, would it? This year’s seasonal extravaganza is said to be 75366 Star Wars Advent Calendar, and the current minifigure line-up includes a 212th Clone Trooper, an Ewok, a Battle Droid (obvs) and Omega from Star Wars: The Bad Batch – who is so far otherwise exclusive to 75323 The Justifier. 75367 Venator Star Destroyer Each canopy is removable, revealing the seats and printed control panels inside. These seats are suitably angled when compared with the original vehicle, although I think they should have featured pronounced headrests. The control consoles could also have been improved because these deviate from the onscreen consoles, which are clearly displayed during the movie.One of three LEGO Star Wars sets supposedly on the way for the Ahsoka TV series, 75362 Ahsoka’s T-6 Shuttle is likely to revisit the same subject matter as 2011’s 7931 T-6 Jedi Shuttle. We’ve already glimpsed the ship in the first trailer for the new series, adding further fuel to the fire. And the minifigure line-up sounds pretty lit too, featuring Ahsoka Tano, Sabine Wren, Huyang (the droid who teaches younglings to build lightsabers) and an Inquisitor with double-bladed lightsaber. 75364 [Ahsoka] A non-fan saying "This set, regardless of the source material, is good or bad" is very different from a non-fan saying "This set is poor because of the source material that I do not know""

Ultimate Collector Series products have focused almost exclusively upon Original Trilogy designs which enjoy amazing popularity. The marvellous assortment of Prequel Trilogy subjects has been neglected, increasing the expectation which has preceded 75309 Republic Gunship.Upload an Image in the specific color if you have one and the one in the above listing is not available. Jens Kronvold Frederiksen and Hans Burkhard Schlömer assert that the Republic Gunship is the third Ultimate Collector Series product based upon the Prequel Trilogy, succeeding 10018 Darth Maul and 10215 Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter. That seems questionable given both 10026 Special Edition Naboo Starfighter and 10186 General Grievous are omitted and were perhaps forgotten. Beside previous editions of the Republic Gunship, this model is a similar length and wingspan, although the front of the fuselage narrows unlike on the older versions. The bodywork is dramatically different from earlier editions, although the overall shape is of course very similar and this model will look just fine next to one of the older sets in my opinion. Great review, and as a UCS I expected it'll get the 5 stars verdict, but it's a very odd choice for a model. I'm not following SW as I used to, so not sure what this spaceship is but the design of it is quite ugly. I'm surprised it got voted for. It's not as iconic (at least for a non SW fan) as the X-Wing/MF/SD/etc, and not that pretty. I think the larger scale set did it more wrong than good." Assembly commences at the base, which comprises numerous layered plates. This structure feels reasonably strong and will definitely need to be, since the Republic Gunship includes an expansive troop compartment towards the rear. Technic components accordingly surround the open section and the resultant frame begins to emerge during the early stages of construction.
