krabs.

well my 7676 RGS had 2 of the long black technic axles extra (same length as the ones used to build the 2 big cannons).... they were floating around the box outside the polybags

think about the infinite possibilities of a minifigure sized minigun ! .... it can be added to mechs, planes, helicopters , land vehicles

in a island where the local distributor monopoly the market its so shameful i dont wanna name it

and the recent droid gunship would complete the kashyk battle

thats the flashlight .... watch the clone wars trailer and ull know .... theres a scene where the clones enter a dark cave with a metal door like jabba's palace in the movies

everything is perfect except the rear of troop cabin .... seems so flimsy with only 2 2x1 white brick holding everything together ....

its worst over here HSD retails for USD$58 fighter tank retails for USD$72

left-handed droids

too many pictures .... we dont need to see every step

no i didnt bought it the only ep3 set i got was the clone scout walker ....

i wonder if the only way to have a "functioning" open/close cockpit is with super-glue

around USD$110 in todays exchange rate ..... lego is sooooo expensive here .... 1 "children's toy" can easily exceed a low-middle income family's daily wage

i remember seeing a wookie catamaran with LUL sitting at corner of the shelf ..... for a few times that i been there (back in 2007) seems like a unwanted (and overpriced) child that nobody wants to adopt & bring home ... released in 2005 .... still sitting there in 2007 poor thing

around USD$77 over here .... not in the US

saw this in the store on the 26th .... overpriced ... ill pass

the cockpit piece doesnt hold well when you try to "swing-it-open" most of the time it just pops off

hope my pictures answer the questions in your mind for those who havnt bought it yet all your bricks are made in china say goodbye to quality control front & back lego wasting space as usual ... only 50% of the box is filled one of the longest box ever .... compared to UCS ISD instuction book pour em out ! parts list cody and normal clone have same face instuction booklet is wrong side pauldron compared to boxart commander cody's back after 1 hour the "snot" nose 2 hours 3 hours complete ! 4 & half hours ! ugly backend is not covered up pinch these 2 together to "open" the cabin doors they bend back at an angle ... cool huh ? the spares oh hey a dewback ! fits 21 troops standing in the cabin just remove the middle bricks that hole the speederbike and 4 guns peek at them from the backdoor fits 30+ when their dead front cargo area fits a dewback or 6+ scout troopers they all fit in .... nearly 50 troops show you the variation between old clone trooper torso and new the back printing difference mass carnage vampire in the bacta tank ! UPGUNNED RGS ! lol okay sorry ... it wasnt really serious the polybags are kinda messed up ... the same part they can put 3 here ... 3 in another bag .... trying to fustrate the builders hard to swoosh .... heavy ... no safe place to grip good thing is 2 sets of the ARC trooper armour the "clone trooper" helmet flashlight is crappy .... get lost easily

the fun is in the building ... not the swooshing drag it longer to enjoy it more after adding some training wheels ... now my gunship can "fly"

i have a habit of aligning the "lego" words on the studs either "forward" or facing Left or "west" direction perfectionist swooshability is 0 ... ZERO how can something with no place to grip and weigh like a brick swoosh ? the only 2 places you can use your fingers to grip is those 2 "snot" lightgrey triangles on the top of the cabin doors good for short term holding .... but holding the weight too long there the studs cant hold the weight .... might get loose or break eventually weighs like a dumbell when you hold it on your palm to play "helicopter" easily sway left,right on your palm because the oversized wings making high center-of-gravity not a single "cockpit control printed tile" .... even the twilight have 2 for the whole set ... theres no printed tile too .... even the rear vent is sticker .... i remember the 1st version RGS is printed ugly gaps in the "mass-driver-cannons" when flying it around ull accidentally hit the 2 long barrels .... it looks flimsy as theres only technic pins with 1 pole slotted in .... if you bend it hard enough the pole will snap the barrel is smooth looking from the cones .... thats a plus wing pods arent airtight ... the bubble canopy doesnt fit high to the surface .... half-a-plate gap the side plates where you put the monkey or twinklet sticker ... it fits the angle of slopes beside ... but its not "airtight" the side doors arent "airtight" from the sides too ... a horizontal gap running tru the middle .... if u close this gap it puts the clickyhinge in a "middle" which can harm it on the long run the clicky hinge on the wings are good ... can hold it up like a Y or V shape the bacta tank is not easy to slot in .... tight fit ..... have to move the 2 movable plates on the side to move the bacta in out nice arch inside the ship hull ... running from the green pieces at the front all the way to the rear speederbike rank UNOBSTRUCTED fit a ICBM in anyone ? the front cargo area have a triangle hole on the floor .... can be modded into a bombbay the rear "engine vent" clicky plate can be modded into a bombbay too .... very roomy inside the 2 "probe droid storage area" is very nonsense .... you can mod it to hold a (smaller version of) folding cannon like dr.inferno's volcano base more forward firepower ! not really all that fun ... i put it into the glass cabinet 3 hours after finishing it

well it depends ... MOST of the sets here cost DOUBLE the price after exchange rate conversion .... like battlepacks here cost more than USD$20 .... batman tumbler joker icecream surprise cost over USD$100

anyway i got it for around USD$147 = 94euro = 74GBP

cant compose a paragraph ...only slept 2 hours because i was too excited about it ... and my hands still hurt from all the building
