Build, play and display – This buildable TX-130 Saber-class fighter tank model measures over 10 cm (4 in.) high, 20 cm (8 in.) long and 16 cm (6 in.) wide I believe the troopers appearing in Clone Wars S7 are supposed to be a branch of 91st Recon, like Lightning Squad, his unit during the Ryloth arc, as the armor color better matches. " PurpleDave - The Clone Troopers with brown markings originate from the modern Clone Wars series, rather than the Tartakovsky series."

Choosing to depict the purple 187th Legion Clone Troopers is interesting though, given they have a canonical equivalent. I presume the brown colour was considered unappealing." On an unrelated note IIRC the 187th trooper with the airborne helmet is the commander, I don't remember his name though. I'll look it up then edit this comment. I would love to see Ponds in minifig form, but I doubt that would ever happen since he was only in two Clone Wars arcs excluding the Windu assassination. Also random fun fact, we actually have the Lightning Squadron in minifig form!" Also includes 2 187th Legion LEGO Star Wars Clone Troopers minifigures and 2 Battle Droid figures, each with blasters There is so much wrong with that statement that I don't even know what part to start correcting first."Finally, from Volume 2, there’s Chapter 23-25. Mace appears without armor, but briefly flies his purple Ep3 starfighter. This might be the first instance of purple as his signature color, excluding the lightsaber blade, since his Ep2 starfighter was fairly generic ( 7868). Most of the clones he fights alongside are in basic white, and don’t seem to be assigned to him. What few unit markings I can see look like blue or red ARC Troopers. Thinking of buying this awesome building toy as a gift for a Star Wars™ fan who is new to LEGO sets? No worries – step-by-step instructions are included to guide their fun, creative journey. By the time December 2022 rolls around, and we’re thinking about how to celebrate the year just gone (in LEGO), remind us to put together a list on ‘the most random and unexpected minifigure line-ups’. It’s a niche category, for sure, but one that 75342 Republic Fighter Tank is likely to top. What you really want to know from this review is whether the rest of 75342 Republic Fighter Tank is worth a slice of your LEGO budget, and the answer is satisfying straightforward: yes, almost certainly. It’s not the biggest Republic Fighter Tank, nor the prettiest, but it bests both its predecessors in at least one department, and for that it shouldn’t be overlooked – at least if only to see how the LEGO Group has managed to come up with a third completely different way to build this vehicle. Isn't the tank itself from Legends? It's not in any of the films or the Clone Wars show, so its not in anything still being deemed official"

The LEGO Group’s third take on a vehicle we’ve only ever seen in video games – we’re as surprised as you – also represents its third different scale, sitting somewhere in the middle of the last two. And by and large, that makes it not too big, not too small, but basically just right – at least as an adaptation of the TX-130 as seen in EA’s original Battlefront games from the early ‘00s, rather than the more modern version from the late ‘10s. You know, just in case this source material wasn’t niche enough for you. What we actually need more of is Super Battle Droids (they haven’t been in a LEGO set since 2015!), but we’ll take these for the easy, throwaway addition that they are. Mainly because the star attraction is obviously the Clone Troopers, and they go a long way to filling out the Republic’s rainbow army – Star Wars is inherently silly, remember – with detailed printing from head to (literal) toes.
