Deinonychus Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Here's a little custom I did a while back but just recently took new pictures of. In case you're not familiar, it's the cargo variation of the Republic Gunship from Attack of the Clones...you may remember seeing one swoop in and drop off an AT-TE Walker during the big battle on Geonosis. The main portions of the Gunship set remain intact, but several details required redesign to match the cargo variant. The dual cockpits had to be reduced to one, the gun pods taken off the wings, the guns removed from the front and capped with Y-Wing engine domes, most of the "Republic Red" bricks replaced with blue, The front end replaced with red bricks (which I had few of in the right shapes...thus the fudging with the round pieces), and the construction of the odd assembly on the dorsal surface...whatever it's supposed to be, I've not seen it explained anywhere. And of course, the closing up of the forward compartment and addition of the cargo clamps. One of these days I'm going to build a little Republic Fighter Tank for it to carry around Quote
ApophisV Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Whaow! Very nice MOC!!! It really looks like the sister ship Lego could have released for his RGS! But can it also carry the AT-TE? If not the Lego version, will you build an own fitting AT-TE? I really hope so! ;) Quote
Christian Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Nice work Deinonychus! I cant wait to see your "little Republic Fighter", when you get it build ;) Quote
MattZitron Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Fantastic!!! I wish Lego would revist their Gunship and do this. Looking forward to seeing the finished cargo. Quote
Lost Viking Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Thats awsome! You should try and make it work with the AT-TE, I would love to see that. It looks just like in the movie! GJ Quote
KimT Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 Awesome modification of the RGS. Can't wait 'till You post the "cargo" for the ship. Happy MOC'ing :oD KimT Quote

Aredhel Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 Wow, that's amazing!!! Really great great work! :-D Quote
SuvieD Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 Nicely executed. I like the color patterns used. I would like to see some of the cargo it can carry. ;) Quote
greivous Posted November 3, 2005 Posted November 3, 2005 That is a very cool MOC. I would love to have the pieces and skill to do that...Bravo ;) Quote
Nothing Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Wow! It looks just like the real thing in the movie, although you never see very many of them... I really want to see the tank and the cargo. :-D Quote
JoeMI6 Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 That's really good, i'd love to be able to make colour change mods to some of my ships. If i had the pieces i'd definetly make one of those. I can't wait to see the cargo. Keep up the good work!+ :) Quote
