1 Bad Figure But an Excellent Gunship

This set gets a lot of criticism for its differences to previous versions, specifically regarding the color scheme, smaller size, and print issues on Commander Fox. Having built the new model, only the Commander Fox print is lacking. The dark red color is a refreshing change from classic Star Wars grey and the size feels more reasonable to the in-universe gunship while still having decent presence (especially nice wingspan). In exchange, you get a fantastically solid build with studs on the size paneling techniques vs. the previous brick on brick build, which makes this gunship more sleek and modern. The only unexpected issue I have is that the wings’ size makes it awkward to display on a normal bookshelf. I have to display it facing toward me, which is not my favorite angle. Overall, a fantastic build experience and a good-looking model, but it looks better with a display stand.

Great gift for our grandson who loves Logo kits! Looking forward to hear about this gift!
Overall, I quite enjoy this set. The republic symbol stickers should have been prints, in my opinion, as the sticket is noticeably darker than the brick it is placed on. The build was fun, no complaints there. I would however, have preferred an additional clone trooper instead of Padmé. She's a nice figure, but I don't think she belongs in this particular set.

An odd choice, but a welcome one

Definitely a weird choice to remake the iconic republic gunship in a red and white color scheme, but a great value. Yes it's downscaled, and it doesn't have anything on the 2013 or 2008 gunships, but it's still a solid set. Also nice to get Shock troopers and an updated Chancellor Palpatine and Padme minifigures, even if Padme should have had a better headprint. My biggest complaint (becides the colour) is the Commander Fox minifigure. The torso printing is absolutely horrific and LEGO continues to let us down by including those awful printed waistcapes. The build itself is very good however, aside from the stud shooters. The closing door function is amazing, and the build is extremely solid, however the downscaling is not appreciated.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great set, wish that that it included bubble turrets and the rocket launchers though. I’d say the only downside is the inaccurate commander fox minifig

Decline in clones

I have been waiting over a decade for a new gunship to release! I was very excited when I heard this set was going to come out two years ago. There are some issues with it though. One of the standout features of the Republic Gunship are the bubble turrets on the sides of the wings. This set is missing them, and instead the give you ugly stud shooters as a stand in. The minifigures are also flawed. The Captain Fox minifig is not printed correctly, with the white highlights on the torso coming out as pink. The Padme figure has the same minifig head we've seen on countless female figures over the years, despite Lego creating a perfect facial expression for character in the last gunship set in 2013. Good set because I was hyped for it, but lots left on the table.
