Hello dear LUG network community!

With Clone Wars gaining more and more popularity, it’s about time to present some new vessels from the Clone Wars era to you. They are from Attack of the Clones, Clone Wars (TV series and movie) and Revenge of the Sith. This means, no EU models this time. ;-)



First, we have the infamous Low Altitude Assault Transport, also known as simply Republic Gunship. This representation is very tiny, only being one stud wide. Nonetheless it features details like guns, rockets, cockpits, open troop compartment etc.



Republic Gunship



Second for today is the Trident, the tentacled ship from the opening scene of the animated Clone Wars movie. It’s again a ship with not much screen time, but these ships also get their chance to be bricked although this is a very simple and straight forward design.



The Trident



Appearing in both, the first Clone Wars TV series, and the Clone Wars animated movie, the Octuptarra Combat Tri-Droid is another weird battle droid design. It’s also quite simple, and it uses two triangular Technic hubs, very useful pieces for triangular stuff.

The last model for today is the Corporate Alliance Tank Droid, which appears druing the Battle of Kashyyyk in Revenge of the Sith. Unlike TLC’s never released version, this one features real treads, and is a quite tricky design when you have a close look at the instructions. There is a fair number of building tricks in it to get it symmetrical and it also features what I call the “unconventional sliding connection”.

That’s it for this week-end. Thank you for your time and interest! Have a great sunday!

Yours Christopher
