I was pissed when this set came out, because I spent $220 on the original 2 years ago and now I regret it. I'm not sure if I should get this one.

I almost made the same mistake with the MTT.

For anyone complaining about the price, don't. The RGS costs 331$ where I live, and the MTT 260$. I'm really tempted to buy the RGS from the US and ask someone to ship it here. The set looks just amazing from the pictures, and I'm actually curious about the minifigs, captain Cody especially.

Sorry Mike, my comment wasn't directed to you or anyone else for that matter, just saying that the price is just right from my point of view.

Im going to get 1 definitely, 2 hopefully. For those who know that Laats better than I, are the side bubbles supposed to store in the troop compartment, or where the bacta tank is on the new set?

I got it a while ago and it is amazing!!The best set I have gotten in a long time.The only thing I don't like about it is that it is fragile.Right after I built it it fell apart in my hands so I had to rebuild it Crying or Very sad

I have a quick question regarding the speeder bike in this set. Does anyone know why there is a megaphone/old style blaster on just one side of the bike? It looks a little asymmetrical to me. Does it serve a purpose?

I just got this set in the mail about four days ago, and it looks amazing. Too bad I don't really have the time to open this bad boy up at the moment, but once I get a good break from school, I'll be able to post a review. Very Happy

I got mine Saturday(i think), and had a question about the gunpods on the wings. do the red slopes go with the slope towards where the gunner sits as the instructions show, or with the flat sides towards the pilot for more support?

Anyone irked at the back ramp? That tiny little sliver of a ramp they gave us?

It's easily modable. I did it with a few pieces. Check out the whole gallery of my modded gunship, or just the picture of my modded ramp. It's a very satisfying and quick mod; I suggest you do it. It's worth the five minutes you'll put into it finding the pieces.

I got this set for christmas, built it and really like it.
But wouldn't it be great if Lego would include so many figs, that all places in the ship are occupied?
The Gunship really could need more Clones.

Playability took a hit last night.

I grabbed the gunship by the grey bits in the center of the top structure. Stud and pin grip was not enough to hold the weight of the nose and the troop compartment. Those separated and crashed. Shocked

ALWAYS fly this ship with a good bottom grip.

In this area, the old ship was more structurally sound. It could drop the nose and troop carrier. But then, the old design had problems hanging on to the cockpit. Overall, the new set has a bit more playability.

As for the minifig naysayers, go buy battlepacks. You already got two new Jedi and a Clone Commander with extra bits.

Does anyone have a fix to let minifigs slide in with the bottom nose seats?
