About this deal

LEGO Shop at Home ( USA| Canada| UK| Australia) has revealed the all new Disney Lucasfilm LEGO Star Wars April 2022 set! We now have set images, prices and release dates for LEGO Star Wars 75342 Republic Fighter Tank. What? No! It’s got purple. If we count Mace Windu as an honorary Batman on account of his vambraces, that makes this pretty much the bestest most perfectest Prequel set ever! InChI=1S/C21H40O4/c1- 2- 3- 4- 5- 6- 7- 8- 9- 10- 11- 12- 13- 14- 15- 16- 17- 21(24) 25- 19- 20(23) 18- 22/h9- 10,20,22- 23H,2- 8,11- 19H2,1H3/b10- 9- This last change of clone trooper style towards the animated shapes ruined clone trooper sets for me, so I don't even care about the usefulness of clone squadrons though I still hope they just do the Galactic Marines so that this covers another Jedis legion.

The Republic Fighter Tank boasts hidden wheels that create a hover effect, adding an extra touch of excitement to the battles. Equipped with two elevating spring-loaded shooters, this tank is ready to take on any enemy. The lookout for the Clone Commander on top provides a strategic advantage, allowing for better coordination and planning during combat. Anyone who has played the Battlefront games mag recognize the tank. I think it debuted there if I remember right. "The TX-130 does originate from Star Wars Legends, but joined the modern canon when the vehicle appeared in Star Wars Battlefront II. Entrega estándar hasta 7 días hábiles, de lunes a viernes entre las 7.30h y las 21.00h. Información de Envíos Entregas en códigos postales remotos llevarán más tiempo, puedes informarte en Entregas. This LEGO set is an ideal gift for children who are new to both Star Wars and LEGO. Step-by-step instructions are included, ensuring that even beginners can easily follow along and build their own Republic Fighter Tank. This gift will not only provide hours of entertainment but also encourage creativity and problem-solving skills. What we actually need more of is Super Battle Droids (they haven’t been in a LEGO set since 2015!), but we’ll take these for the easy, throwaway addition that they are. Mainly because the star attraction is obviously the Clone Troopers, and they go a long way to filling out the Republic’s rainbow army – Star Wars is inherently silly, remember – with detailed printing from head to (literal) toes. Give me interesting purple troopers over yet another drab 'canonical' legion any day. It's not like the canon ones are any less made up, they're just made up by a different person. None of this is real, after all."

On an unrelated note IIRC the 187th trooper with the airborne helmet is the commander, I don't remember his name though. I'll look it up then edit this comment. Incluye 6 minifiguras de LEGO Star Wars: Mace Windo con una espada láser, comandante clon de la Legión 187 con un rifle bláster y demás Taken in isolation, though, does this set feel like it’s worth the dosh? On the whole, yes: it’s a pretty beefy (if brief) build, and there can really be no complaints about those minifigures. The larger elements probably have something to do with it, too… Edit 5/14: After getting the kit in hand and building this MOC in person I slightly updated the interior as it didn't fit a minifig even without a helmet. Now it snugly fits one minifig in the front without a helmet with room behind for a second one, and there's still enough space to throw the pilot's helmet and gun in there. If you plan on adding a minifig to the pilot's seat, add them between steps 23 and 24 as the interior gets built around it. Regardless, I have no issue with LEGO producing Legends sets or minifigures. In fact, there are myriad subjects I would love to see, notably including the Ebon Hawk to accompany the upcoming Knights of the Old Republic remake.

Minifigures

Thinking of buying this awesome building toy as a gift for a Star Wars fan who is new to LEGO sets? No worries – step-by-step instructions are included to guide their fun, creative journey. The set was provided for review by LEGO. All opinions expressed are those of the author. Minifigures

I don’t get the argument that the 187th legion was the right choice because they’re unique and different. 21st and 327th troopers have never been made before, and are just as unique, in addition to being a lot more desirable of options." Honestly, I like getting different troopers! It makes things exciting when new ones appear to add to the army. Seeing figures from non-canon sources is also nice because it brings plenty of nice surprises while opening up more possibilities for sets! Este modelo de tanque de combate TX-130 clase Saber tiene ruedas ocultas para que el vehículo parezca flotar, 2 cañones automáticos elevables y una escotilla trasera These minifigures also wear straps across their armour, further corresponding with the action figures. Each trooper includes a blaster rifle and the Clone Trooper heads under their helmets are identical, naturally. While these minifigures are well-executed, I would have preferred many other legions, or even plain Phase II Clone Troopers instead.

I think it is a fair criticism. There was no obligation for LEGO to provide Mace Windu, nor to include appropriate Clone Troopers for a specific Jedi general. However, if the designers did wish to include Mace Windu with his associated Clone Troopers, they could have chosen the canonical Lightning Squadron. Also, I am not really into legends as I think that Canon is more worthwhile to know in terms of actual star wars geekiness.

By the time December 2022 rolls around, and we’re thinking about how to celebrate the year just gone (in LEGO), remind us to put together a list on ‘the most random and unexpected minifigure line-ups’. It’s a niche category, for sure, but one that 75342 Republic Fighter Tank is likely to top.

Quite some of the fans that are complaining about the figs in this set are the exact same ones who have been asking for more clone unit minifigures? LEGO has absolutely delivered, and I think even though the tank looks overly disappointing, the minifigures are great. With its 262 pieces, this building toy offers a fun and engaging challenge for children aged 7 and up. Whether it's given as a Christmas gift, a birthday present, or a surprise treat, this set is sure to bring joy to any Star Wars fan. Once built, the Republic Fighter Tank can be proudly displayed, measuring over 10 cm (4 in.) high, 20 cm (8 in.) long, and 16 cm (6 in.) wide. I suppose it's always possible to speculate (or even criticize) about 'better' alternatives for almost any Lego set. Yet, these are really nice, colorful troopers which surely no one could admittedly believe would appear in any other set. On that basis, I think objective criticism is nearly close to impossible. It all becomes very subjective. There's almost no objectively rational basis to dislike these purple dudes in favor of a speculative alternative in the vast Star Wars universe. LEGO.com has published an image showing 75342 Republic Fighter Tank, which appears under the 'Learn More' tab. FYI: the new Star Wars LEGO game is awesome. Go play it. Some stuff in there I need as LEGO product NOW. :D
