Siegfried Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Thanks for the extra pics brickbitz! This set has a lot of nice parts... I believe this as already been posted. Sorry :-/ Err no. Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) Here are some additional images for those who asked for them. The reasons I didn't create many for my review are 1) Not impressed with the set 2) Image handling on my website is painful and the less I need the better Anyway here you go in no particular order TYVM for the pics! They just improve on two things: One, my being annoyed at the insane price, and two, my wanting this set more than ever! *wub* You still haven't explained why you said that the 'standard red clones' which are 'nothing new as we've seen them in plenty of other sets'. Could you please explain this untrue remark? :-/ Edited December 20, 2007 by trooperdavinfelth Quote

Could you please explain this untrue remark? :-/ I may indeed have got mixed up with a slightly different red clone from the Turbo tank. The point I was trying to make is that this is the same clone found in the Clone Battlepack which is cheap and widely available. I'm sure dedicated fans will have plenty of this figure already. It only further serves to highlight the ridiculous price and the fact the figures are not a reason to consider this set. For this price point I would expect a unique figure similar to Kit Fisto in the Jedi Starfighter or K3-PO in the Hoth base to try and secure sales and create the usual interest in a hard to obtain figure. The only reason I mention this, is because that's what LEGO have done in the past. Why not with this set? Quote

And it is definitely NOT 'slightly different'... Oh well. At least it's 40 USD at my TRU! And by 'dedicated fans', I think all eyebrows turn to Mutley! :-P ;-) Quote
Dino_Bot Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 It's $40 here in the US...it's pretty darn expensive. I resent that price. Quote
Motti Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 (edited) I got this a few days ago. Spent a few hours modding it, and I hate the fact that the printed grills at the back were printed in old gray on a new gray plate. Disappointing that the belt is white in contrast to the black one for the clone troopers set Edited December 27, 2007 by Motti Quote
Stealth Hunter Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Nope!In Austria and Germany it is 46.99Euro's Really expensive for only 395 pieces /( i think) I will get this set also if it is expensive. I really like the overall look of this AT-AP and need more vehicles for my clonearmy. Expanding the GAR ON. *y* Quote
snefroe Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Nope!In Austria and Germany it is 46.99Euro's Really expensive for only 395 pieces /( i think) well now that i have it, i can't say it's too expensive. It's a good design, it's good quality, it's a fairly big set for a walker. 50 euro is doable ... Quote
KimT Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 You still haven't explained why you said that the 'standard red clones' which are 'nothing new as we've seen them in plenty of other sets'. Could you please explain this untrue remark? :-/ Whatever :-| I got this baby today and I am impressed. At first I was annoyed since I have to get all sets and this didn't look all that great. Now I actually feel that this is pretty cool. Must get more... The only three things to complain about are: 1. On the manual the shock trooper holds a SW pistol - why isn't it in the set? Bad *n* *n* 2. The large cannon on top of the beast has got the new version of the light gray tube. Bad *n* *n* *n* 3. The two 4x8 tan plates "stick out" colourwise...must exhange for light or dark grey. *n* Other than that the set rocks! - or is at least ok. X-D Very sturdy construction with great playability. KimT PS I got mine 10% off. Thank You small-not-part-of-large-toystorechain-local-toystore *wub* *wub* Quote
Scouty Posted January 14, 2008 Posted January 14, 2008 3. The two 4x16 tan plates "stick out" colourwise...must exhange for light or dark grey. *n* 4x16?? Where!? :-P I suppose you meant the 4x8 plates, instead. I got the only copy from my Toys R Us X-D. I really like it too. Quote

Nice try...quoting me and then changing what I've written... |-/ As I wrote in the post above "4x8" - tsk tsk tsk :-| KimT ;-) :-P X-D Quote
