" This is a sleek ship and one of the best I have had in a long while, but that was only once I'd finished it.
PROS:
A brilliant new Mace Windu
2 clones, including a pilot, both equipped with blasters.
There is a spot for Mace Windu's lightsabre.
The switch at the back activates the cool bombs.
Effective colour scheme, strongly resembling the ship in the Clone Wars film.
The wings move from landing mode into flying? attack mode.
The best feature is the semi-automatic flick missiles. At the press of a button, out come eight missiles!!
Great finished product - I played with it for hours when I finally completed it.
The way that you open the top to reveal the inside is ingenious.

CONS:
I felt it could have come with a green lieutenant, because the lieutenants arrive back from their scouting mission on Teth in this ship.
The instructions on how to make the mechanism that allows you to move the wings up and down is absolutely horrendous! Unless it was just me being a bit silly...

Overall, a well designed set, and although the instructions were terrible in some parts of the manual, this set had many effective, well working features. 5/5

" I recieved this set for my birthday and I have to say I was very impressed! Here are the pros and cons:
PROS:
7 minifigures including a rare Yoda figure!
The new Super Battle Droid arms are very detailed and they are ten times better than the older version.
The AAT comes with a lot of accessories and it is easy to build.
This set provides a lot of play experiance.
The way the speeder is designed to fold up to close the hatch that it goes in is very clever.
Cool Colour scheme.

" A good set that is let down by stability!!!
THE BUILD: It was an easy, quick build with a fair balance of Technic (The legs) and normal bricks with different shades of grey (the main body). The colour scheme is impressive and surprisingly movie accurate, but light grey pieces should have dominated just a little more in the main body.
THE MINIFIGURES: 5 minifigures are included in this set, each unique. It comes with a regular Clone and a commander Fox trooper, equipped with double blaster pistols and extra armour. I love the extreme detail on his helmet. There is also a Battle Droid, a Super Battle Droid and a Commander Droid with a yellow body so that he can be distinguished from his fellow Droids.
THE DROID: On to the actual Spider Droid itself, the rotating top laser cannon is fun. I thought that it might spin around uncontrollably like a weather machine on a windy day, so I was relieved when I found that this was not the case.
The lower cannon is also good, but it should go up as well as downwards to shoot air units and Anakin Skywalker as seen in the Clone Wars film.
THE LEGS: The legs are well designed but they slip and slide all over the place. A few extra pieces put at the place where the legs are connected to the main body would reinforce the legs, hence giving the set more stability. The set does stay together very well, however.
So, a run through the pros and cons.

CONS:

2) Legs can never stay put!

In conclusion, this is a fantastic set which is good for play and on display. It is best kept stuck down to a baseplate to keep the legs in one place when in play. This is a good set for someone who loves minifigures and limited edition sets, but if you are someone who looks for stability in a set, then this isn't the set for you. I am a mixture of the two so I am annoyed about the legs sliding about. However, I still think that this is a credible set. I give it 7.5 out of 10.

" This is an excellent set and a good value for 72 pieces.
PROS:
1) The clones now come with awesome black gear, which looks ten times better on them than the grey gear of 2008.
2) Well designed AT-RT with space for two clones and the legs move very well.
3) The flick missiles fire quite well.
4) Comes with rare grey pieces.
5) The clone gunner has a very detailed helmet.

CONS:
1) The walker isn't very stable because the legs are too thin.

A brilliant army builder and these packs are cheep and easy to build and they are useful if you want to fill up the AT-TE and the Republic Attack gunship, which come with hardly any clones. 9 out of 10!!
