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. This minifigure selection seems somewhat surprising, since the purple-armoured troopers originate from Star Wars Legends." Isn't the tank itself from Legends? It's not in any of the films or the Clone Wars show, so its not in anything still being deemed official" Ever since 1958, LEGO® components have met stringent industry standards to ensure that they are compatible and connect consistently for robust builds. 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.

Includes 6 LEGO Star Wars minifigures: Mace Windu with a lightsaber, 187th Legion Clone Commander with a blaster rifle, and more That would definitely be correct. Although Ponds had an unfortunate end at the hands of Baby Boba in Clone Wars. I was actually focusing on the naming convention for the 187 Commander, and why he might have been called Thunder, but I appreciate the reply nonetheless! Gift idea for ages 7 and up – This 262-piece building toy makes a fun Christmas gift, birthday present or surprise treat for creative kids who are into Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The TX-130 does originate from Star Wars Legends, but joined the modern canon when the vehicle appeared in Star Wars Battlefront II. Dual-molding takes at least as much time for one shot as regular parts do for two, if you want crisp divisions like arms and legs. For stuff with a marbled look, like the original Bohrok faceplate, they inject all of the colors simultaneously, so no waiting for one color to cool before you can swap mold sections and inject the next color.

There is so much wrong with that statement that I don't even know what part to start correcting first." The LEGO Group’s third take on a vehicle we’ve only ever seen in video games – we’re as surprised as you – also represents its third different scale, sitting somewhere in the middle of the last two. And by and large, that makes it not too big, not too small, but basically just right – at least as an adaptation of the TX-130 as seen in EA’s original Battlefront games from the early ‘00s, rather than the more modern version from the late ‘10s. You know, just in case this source material wasn’t niche enough for you.

Surely simply knowing the information and being able to notice references that others cannot is good enough, or do you need that surefire satifaction from making someone look as if they are an idiot.

Finally, from Volume 2, there’s Chapter 23-25. Mace appears without armor, but briefly flies his purple Ep3 starfighter. This might be the first instance of purple as his signature color, excluding the lightsaber blade, since his Ep2 starfighter was fairly generic ( 7868). Most of the clones he fights alongside are in basic white, and don’t seem to be assigned to him. What few unit markings I can see look like blue or red ARC Troopers. This TX-130 Saber-class fighter tank model has hidden wheels for a hover effect, 2 elevating spring-loaded shooters, and a rear hatch
