LEGO 75234 AT-AP Walker Star Wars

Pros: Highly playable set and very well designed to look like the source. It actually has a good assortment of figures. Very playable and looks good as a display piece. Has a few interesting build features as well.Cons: Stickers. 2019 is not a good year for Lego Star Wars. This set is almost point for point an exact remake of the 75043 version. It isn't offering anything new and I find it WAY less appealing than getting a new vehicle like the UT-AT or many many of the vehicles from E3 that Lego hasn't made yet. This really felt phoned in...given the 2019 lineup so far this seems to be a real problem for the theme. Retailers are seeing this as well it is already marked down 20% on most sites and this review is less than a month into the set release.Overall buy it ... MorePros: Highly playable set and very well designed to look like the source.

Just not super impressed with this re-release.

Overall all this set is a great addition to any Lego Star Wars fans collection. Although simularities can be seen between this and the 2014 set the are some notable differences. The mini figures are great. Commander Gree is a very sought after figure and the new battle droids are an interesting idea to make them stand out amongst other droids. Chewbarrca is also great and personally would have loved for just a normal Wookiee just to make the set that much more unique and different compared with the 2014 model. The feet are a new and welcome change and personally I was a huge fan of the previous sets feet. 689 peices for £64.99 is a great price espealilly compared with the droid gunship which is £10 cheap with 300 less peices. I do think though that u will need to ... MoreOverall all this set is a great addition to any Lego Star Wars fans collection.

I do think though that u will need to buy the droid gunship as well just to complete the look. My one complaint is that I would like to have had 1 more clone in the set to allow all 3 seats to be filled.

I bought this during the 30% offer and double VIP points, so in that respect I think it was great value. I didn't have the 2014 version, so this was new to me.The model is a great build, especially the legs with their articulation action, and both are quite complex to build so it's challenging and interesting. With the middle leg, you can then pose the model as though it's walking about. The main body was cleverly done in how it came together, although it requires patience with the stickers. I like the three cannons, but it seems like the main gun should articulate vertically as well, although this can be done by raising the body of the Walker with the third leg.I especially liked the new color droids, Commander Cree and the other Clone Trooper look great, ... MoreI bought this during the 30% offer and double VIP points, so in that respect I think it was great value.

I'm not bothered for another Chewie, he pops up everywhere. Also it's great that the characters have 'normal' weapons instead of the oversize stud shooters (although these are great for play).Definitely recommend this set is bought with the 20th Anniversary Clone Scout Walker, as you then have two troopers and Commander Cree.Possibly overpriced new, so look out for it on offer on Shop.Lego.Com!!!
