LordDan Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Take on the Separatists with this advanced squad of clone Bomb squad troopers! Watch out for the assassin droid guarding the bombs! -Includes 3 clone bomb squad Minifigures as well as an assassin droid! - Take down the droid using the cannon, which actually fires! -Pilot the speeder and take on the Separatists! -Open the back of the speeder to access the equipment! - Figures include accessories such as scanner and bomb. -Set includes speeder, cannon & ammunition, crates& spare weapons, and legs for the pilot! Note: This set is designed with AFOL's in mind, and as such focuses more on detail than on playability( Although I tried to add some) and is would likely appeal more to AFOL's and TFOl's than LEGO's regular consumers The Speeder The figures Play Features: Firing Cannon Opening Compartment Don't worry, the set( speeder + cannon+ crates/weapons + pants for the pilot) is exactly 100 pieces. All the figs( eve the droid) are under 30 pieces each. Also I'm sorry that there are so many pictures, I wish I could do the spoiler thing but I've never been able to find the button for it. C and C appreciated Also Id like to mention that the speeder is supposed to be a cross between a regular speeder bike and a BARC speeder Edited May 15, 2015 by LordDan Quote
Venkefedo Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 That assassin droid is amazing, and the turret with the stud-launcher, and the speeder bike kinda feels like a nice variation on the one from the old Assassin Droid BP, but the parts usage doesn't really feel like something Lego could conceivably produce, y'know? Clip-bars being held vertically in clip-tiles, minifig hands being used as parts of various builds outside of minifig arms, having to separate a minifig to fit in a speeder, rubber bands as bandoliers, etc. I love that handheld scanner thing tho!

Thanks! I definately agree that LEGO would not use most of the techniques and would never release the set as it is. I was worried about this before but after I saw that MKJA said it could be something that LEGO would not produce I figured I would give it a shot. That is why I tried to have the set geared towards AFOL's , who would prefer the advanced detail and techniques over the playability. Quote
MKJoshA Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I love that you gave the Bomb Squad troopers an actual bomb to defuse! And that assassin droid is phenomenal! Quote
LordDan Posted May 18, 2015 Author Posted May 18, 2015 Thanks! I actually built the droid, speeder and clones a few months ago, but was struggling to take good pictures and was busy with GoH so I never posted them, which turned out well when this contest was started. I'm really happy with the assassin droid as well :) Quote
BrickJagger Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 The posing on the assassin droid is great! Nice build and good luck! Quote
