It's an amazing set that deserves more praise, I like it a lot thank you for including the wing opening function and it works well. I like the clone selection in the set, I'm glad to see named and un-named, clones in a set especially a spaceship one, I Alonso love that you included a new Droid color, thank you for that!
I would recommend this to a friend!

hate the stud shooter, small guns, and HATE the stickers on the windshield .Got into this hobby in the last 3 years so comparing this to the old arc 170 feels like a downgrade.. glad to have one and love the minifigures but the build leaves much to be desired.

Throughly Disappointed

As a huge Star Wars Fan, and importantly a Prequel and Clone Wars fan, the ARC-170 is a great addition to the Clone Wars line up, especially after 15 years. I am very disappointed however. The sticker quality is horrible. Clear backed stickers are quite possibly the worst design choice the designers could have made. The white does not match the brick color. This discrepancy also proves false advertising as the product shown on the box does not match the actual product. It’s a shame a Lego ARC-170 20 years ago could do this right but not in 2025. The downscale also reduces the accuracy of the model as the coloration of the wings is almost 50/50 between red and white when it should be around 75% white and 25% red. The cannons are also horrible. The bottom wing mounted cannon needs to be longer and taking out the top wing mounted cannon takes away from accuracy as-well. I’m all for adding spring loaded shooters but not when the build is compromised. Adding the shooters to the bottom of the model like previous sets would have been way more sufficient in keeping accuracy and playability. Looking at the ARC-170 for play this a great set, but not for the price. Although less than the 2010 model when adjusted for inflation, as a consumer, what I am getting for my money is not worth the price. I will say the LEGO minifigures included are great and I want to give credit there. It’s a shame that quality has not increased in the 26 years that Lego Star Wars has been around. Do better Lego.

I was so excited to get this set when it was revealed and the pictures looked amazing. Then I got it in hand... There is some serious false advertisement going on here with the quality of the stickers. The stickers suffer from the same opacity issue as Commander Fox, so be warned, the product on the front of the box does not look like the product you'll end up with in hand. Lego has lost all ability to properly print anything. How is it cheap knockoff brands have figured out how to print on their bricks?

Stickers ruined everything

I've never wrote reviews, especially negative ones, but the stickers in this set, just made it so awful that I've never experienced, the transparent white on the canopy with all the bubbles I just can't unseen it, it's so bad I can't even imagine this is really a LEGO product.
the windshield stickers on this set are horrid and ruin what could have been a terrific set. The stickers do not appear white (as they do on the box art and are supposed to), but instead are magnitudes darker than the bricks they are supposed to match.
Showing digital product render images that do not match the actual product is incredibly deceptive and plain wrong. I will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau to encourage Lego to increase their quality and stop misleading their customers

This set was SO wanted. What a letdown. It is too small, proportions are off, cannons are too small, and the cockpit stickers look horrendous. False advertising to show the "white" cockpit sticker matching the color of the white bricks. Bad quality.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
