I am getting flashbacks from the 2020 AAT set that has been regarded as one of the worst LEGO interpretations of an iconic Star Wars vehicle. The build leaves a lot to be desired compared to previous versions of the LEGO vehicle, especially considering that the price the last time around was actually less than the new 75342 version. It might just be the first look at the set and a bit early to jump to final conclusions, but the latest Republic Fighter Tank is certainly a little rough around the edges. Then as the fourth minifig in the set, the LEGO Group will include the Mace Windu figure we got in last year’s UCS Republic Gunship. There will be a pair of different troopers included, with two standard Clones joined by an Airborne version. The upcoming Republic Fighter Tank will mark the very first brick-built debut of the 187th legion Clone Troopers, who come decked out in purple colorways. Minifigures on the other hand do not disappoint. So while a lot of recent LEGO Star Wars sets as of late have focused on downsizing popular starfighters from a galaxy far, far away, this time things are increasing in size at the expense of accuracy. We only have one photo to go off of right now, but the use of larger pieces seem to ditch some of the more signature details of the tank while upping the size. That being said, it doesn’t look to be one of the better recreations. Even so, it will be on the larger side compared to previous releases of the same vehicle. Shown off in one of the LEGO Group’s usual lifestyle photos for play-scale sets like this, the part count of the Republic Fighter Tank is currently unknown.
But now that there’s actually an idea of what the build will look like, we can break down the set. How that budget actually gets spent on the new Clone Wars kit has been up in the air up until now.
While the price has yet to be confirmed by the LEGO Group itself, we’re expecting a $39.99 price point here in the United States. As previously reported, this is going to be LEGO Star Wars set number 75342 and will be arriving on May 1. After all of that, we’re now getting a first look at the new creation. We were first able to corroborate the Republic Fighter Tank reports back at the beginning of March following months of seemingly less-than-credible rumors.
