Dig into the details of a relatively obscure Clone Wars-era gunship - and how well the vehicle translates into an upcoming LEGO Star Wars set.
The LEGO Group has selected a surprisingly tough-to-find ship as inspiration for LEGO Star Wars 75354 Coruscant Guard Gunship. Harking from the animated series, The Clone Wars, this specific colour and style of gunship is used to transport the Coruscant Guards on their business (as you might guess from the name). However, the vast majority of the time that we see the Coruscant Guards in the show, they are already in place and on guard, rarely travelling in their own specific vehicles.
Instead, we see them on board private ships of senators or Jedis, or inside or at the entrances of buildings on Coruscant. One of the few exceptions to this, however, is season six, episode seven, ‘Crisis at the Heart’, where Rush Clovis and Padmé Amidala arrive on Scipio on a Republic frigate, escorted by several Coruscant Guard Gunships. Although they remain in the background and we don’t get to see them clearly up close, this is one of the best sightings of this particular style of gunship and there’s enough detail to be able to draw some parallels between the on-screen ships and the newly-revealed brick-built one.
I don’t ask why it was made, I ask why it wasn’t made sooner. It’s such an underrated paint scheme for the LAAT.
I love their reasoning: "It was different so why not" 😂
Tbh i don't think it's that bad of a reasoning. Especially when you look at the Star Wars theme in general, which often has too many boring remakes (falcon, x-wing, Lukes landspeeder,...). So this line of thought actually makes a lot of sense imo
@@DarthVader-gq4ks no no, you miss understood, I love the reasoning. Like fair enough
So happy to hear the designers of our beloved franchise. They get so much hate that is so rare to actually hear them speak. I am so happy that they actually do listen to us and the last couple of years are a proof of that. We wanted clones, we have them. ❤
Any information from the design teams is good to hear. It is better to have than to have not.
I like how they explain the single door
but hes just wrong about the access to the interior at least, with the single door its almost impossible to get minifigures into all parts of the main compartment, a double door mod is necessary to fit more than 4 minifigs inside.
6:19 “Like an X-Wing, a Millennium Falcon and Luke’s land speeder”
Loved the explanation for the gunship. Fragility for the doors heck even the Modders mods are fragile as heck.
One thing I wish they can elaborate more is why does figures like Fox have wrong design prints or even Vaughn. I feel like the set itself is talked more in its reason and the figures are never addressed.
Cause it doubles as clone pilot
I enjoyed it, I think it's getting a lot of unnecessary hate
Exactly
I like how Jens (the designer in the grey shirt) gives credit to the younger designers for this set. I would like to see what other fresh ideas the younger designers come up with. Im not a fan of the smaller size of the Gunship, but I can understand making it easier to swoosh for kids. Im guessing the stud shooters were also incorporated to give kids more of a playful experience. Again, not a fan of these, but it is a children’s toy at the end of the day.
Such chill guys
It’s always a treat to hear from these guys. You just don’t get much engagement from the team with the community. I guess the LEGO Star Wars community scared them away.
I love the colourskin of the new gunship
It looks great and fulfills the role it is supposed to fulfill
It is an amazing gunship im my opinion
Great video!
I love these designer interviews, and it would be fascinating to hear what they have to say about each set. Maybe something like a monthly or quarterly Q&A, or even just a short comment from one or two designers about each set would be amazing
I am going to pick up this set before it retires, I really love the colors they chose for the gunship. The red looks so striking! Shame there is a lot of dead space that could have included a command centre and a speeder like the old versions...
“Can assume they are being used a lot” well you assumed wrong😂
I wish they had talked about how fox has innacurate legs, torso and an oddly thin line on his helmet
That Cdr Fox minifig, good lord! So tragic. There are custom printed torsos you can get elsewhere, but even the helmet print is terrible with the thin line on the fin. Yikes!
Yeah that’s my least favourite part about the Fox minifig
I really love these interviews and getting these hot questions answered. Some things I do question about their design process, but it’s nice to hear them explain things and reassure us that they’re listening and taking notes. Can’t wait to see what’s to come in the future.
I couldn't help waiting for Jens to chime in on the far right and say "The original trilogy" again like he did for the UCS Gunship designer video that Lego pulled from RUclips. But this time he just sat there quietly. Maybe hes not aloud to talk on film anymore :)
More of this. Too many walls up and lack of community engagement with LEGO. Especially with LEGO sw design team.
I wish they would address fox
if you're talking about the pink chest, it's just a lego factory problem, they just can't seem to consistently print white on darker colors. Now for the printing design choices... yes they should have addressed that
I think they would have been better off printing on white torsos instead of red. That way they could get the detail right.
@@zachduperron8543 nah, then the sides would be white and would look bad.
@@Maddenhawk could've double printed the white part i guess.
@@HondaOhnakapretty sure they’re referring to the torso print being objectively wrong as they printed more white onto the torso than needed. The lower white area on the Fox minifig is supposed to be left as red like the belt
I really liked this insight, thank you! It was nice to hear how they feel about things, and intent--and as someone who works on video games, its very heartening to hear about how they listen to, read, are aware of fan mods, and probably internalize a lot of the criticisms and fervor alike.
1:44 guy on the right knows whats up
so they are all biggst star wars fans and only want to give us the best..
.. and than that commander fox figure is created
i have no words for this
They literally picked one of the most hated characters from the clone wars
Honestly should have been the ARC trooper 2003 Clone Wars gunship so there was at least something for the anniversary
I was ready to buy a Lego gunship, but I didn’t buy this one because (in order of importance):
1) The colour
2) No bubble turrets on the wings
3) No rockets on top
4) No double doors
All you said and then \/
5) Downscaling of the gunship which caused a lot of problems
6) The really thin line on the fin of commander fox and his wrong colored torso and there's some parts of the torso that should have been red not white and no waist cape)
7) Blocky also due to downscaling
8) Helmet holes (Should've done the same thing as clone army customs, Most clone wars fans are old enough to understand how to use clone army custom accessories so lego should've done the same thing)
It’s even more of a kick in the gut since the UCS gunship isn’t minifig scale either, so even though there are two gunships on the market rn I don’t really feel like either is a viable option
Good news, parts lists exist for converting the model into a normal gunship.
@@laefg The knee armor plates need to red as well
@@zachduperron8543 You would have to replace almost every piece
My favorite designer didn't say a word xD
*just looking the engines of UCS Venator sagging*
I'm happy they're sagging because this gave me one reason not to buy the Venator and saved me 650€ 😂
WOLFPACK GUNSHIP INBOUND LET'S GO BOYS 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
if its clone wars related i want it
Snub-nosed gunship would have really benefitted from 4-6 studs longer for it's length. Pink shirt Fox was a disgrace. But they gave us hope for a better gunship... So we look forward to the next revision
I honestly love the set
Talking about “appreciation “ to Lego Star Wars fans is like singing to a cow. Good luck to you Lego lol
Idk how they looked at this and thought "this is an improvement over the previous model". Its a cool ship but the really dropped the ball on it
Did they comment (or were asked) about the printing on the minifigures. Specifically how in the box they are white, but in reality they are pink.
Should have been 2 pilot troops, 1 captain fox and 3 shock troopers. We dont need the other 2 figures. Would have made this set worth the 140 bucks.
I agree, or even could have included commander thorn
Omfg you don't need only fucking clones for every goddamn set. This is the type of critique that pisses me off.
I think the down scaling is better cause it makes it a more realistic toy compared to universe. But the two doors and stud shooters could have bin more realistic.
They f'd up Fox figure print, where torso looks pinkish. Also set is too expensive, the new ghost model will give you much better value at around the same price.
👍👍
James 😁
But do they know what a CLONE PILOT looks like yet?
So who oversees and approves the final design to ensure accuracy?
I think they should pass the job on for new blood to take charge ,don't get me wrong for a long time the old designers have hit it out of the park with sets like the ucs slave one but it feels like of late its no steps forward and a lot of steps back esp when you have to take in to account how much older the prequel kids of that error are today !
it’s a hunk of lard, it’s quite awful compared to the other gunships
