Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here

Tydirium Shuttle is easily the best. Fantastic build and figures and looks great on display. Even better if you MOC a clear stand.

Transporter is good too, but it'll be around longer than the shuttle.

Not really a fan of the gunship, but YMMV.

Hi RyGan_Fireblast, and welcome to Eurobricks!

Personally, I'd go for the Tyderium Shuttle without any hesitation. It's a great OT model, has a decent part count, plus a nice selection of minifigures. It's been around for almost a year, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's discontinued by Christmas, based on the usual 18 month life-cycle of most Star Wars sets. For future reference there's a general Q&A thread pinned to the top of the forum. I'll merge this with it in a bit

Definitely the Imperial Shuttle. It's 15 times more awesome than the other 2 combined. That's a scientific fact.

[RyGan_Fireblast]

Thank you all for the input! I'll post my decision after I make it.

Tydirium is a solid pick. You can't go wrong with it. It's pretty much perfect.

The FO Transporter is OK, but that's due to the source material and not the build itself. If you like figs, this set has one of the best minifigure lineups ever, no hyperbole.

Avoid the Gunship if you can. It's really not that great.

[Covi]

Like others already posted: without a doubt the shuttle. It's an iconic ship, has nice parts, and a great selection of minifigs. It's really lots of value for the price. I've seen it also multiple times on discount, so maybe it's worth checking some different stores.

I'm an OT fan, so I'm heavily biased, but the shuttle is the one to go for. As said above, it looks better in flight mode, so try and create a stand for it.

[JPN366]

Tydirium or Transporter. Tydirium is a classic and the transporter comes with 7 figures and is nicer than you would expect.

[RyGan_Fireblast]

I think I've decided on the Imperial Shuttle Tydirium, thank you all for you input in helping me make my decision!

[KevinYoung]

Does anybody know if anybody out there has ever built an ion cannon [moc] . That would be an awesome build .

[Junior Shark]

An ion cannon in general, or the ion cannon on Hoth? If you're talking about the ion cannon, here's a couple of MOCs that have been posted here on EB:

I would go with Tydirium too. First order transport has a phasma figure but I don't think it is worth the cost to get the figure. I would rather get Tydirium and then ebay or bricklink a phasma figure.

[KevinYoung]

Thank you Shark I meant the one on Hoth. Once again thanks for sharing .

[Lobot]

The new 75098 Assault on Hoth has quite a nice Ion Cannon (well, apart from the awful flick-fire missiles!) and it will be on sale from the end of April. If you wait for a couple of weeks you should be able to download the instructions for it from the LEGO website.

Tyderium is probably the better one of the 3. I own all of them. The transporter is good for minifigures. And the police gunship is a nice ship that I hope we see the Imperial version of soon.

[Richpepperell]

I own all three, they're all great sets. The gunship is really interesting, the clones are nice but the mini figures all have the horrible clone wars faces. I've could swapped mine to match the Rebels version and it looks pretty cool.

The shuttle is just iconic and looks fantastic on display, especially with your imperial army on parade! The transporter is better IRL than in any pictures, and the mini figure selection is fantastic. It does greatly benefit from an extension (mine is now 6 studs longer and it makes a big difference) but looks great on display too. If you can only get one set, I'd go 1. Tydirium (just) 2. FO transport 3. Police gunship. Maybe hang on until May 4th and get the shuttle and transport on sale!

[KevinYoung]

Yea I saw that one I like the set even though some people are burnt out on hoth sets. I believe when it comes out I will purchase it . That ion cannon is awesome looking be real sweet though if it was about 3 or 4 times the size of the one they are selling with the set.

Does anyone know how to get or how you could get the First Order General 5004406-1 polybag? I've seen some on BL/Ebay but they are like €30.

It's a promotional polybag that's only been released so far in Hong Kong. My advice would be to wait for the promotion to come to your region, whether through Toys R Us or TLG themselves.

It's also been given away in Toys R Us in Scandinavia. The "hold and see for your region" advice is solid though.

Hi all,

I am new here, so please bare with me. I like to ask if there is any rumors about releasing some new Motorized Walking AT- AT. As I am thinking about buying the old one, but if there is any chance that new one will be released I will rather wait.

[AudiBobaR5-D2]

What would be the best way to update Juno Eclipse from TFU/TFU2? Like alternate between the two.

[Catdog]

This is a very particular and specific question But does anyone have the BARC speeder from 75037 and the Imperial speeder from 75090 at the same time? Can anyone take a picture of them side by side? Also which one do you think looks cooler? Thanks in advance!

Well, they are in the new trailer for Rogue One, but we just had an AT-AT not too long ago, so I doubt there would be another so soon even a walking one. That's no clear reasoning either because they are releasing another Resistance X-Wing only recolored from the one in the previous wave, so I don't know. I still doubt there will be another walking walker, though.
