LEGO IMPERIAL SHUTTLE 2021 LEAK TV

It’s also easy to attach backwards by accident. Since it’s built from plates rather than bricks (as the upper wings on LEGO Star Wars Imperial Shuttle sets typically are), the upper wing on the Bad Batch shuttle is studded on one side, with an anti-stud texture on the other. While it’s not reasonable to expect a UCS-style vehicle that’s “properly” minifig-scale (as variable as the definition for that may also be), the minifigs that accompany this set dwarf the shuttle itself. By comparing the characters on the show entering and exiting through that hatch, it’s clear that the LEGO version is only about 1/3 minifig-scale. The “real” vehicle is large enough to feature a ramp that folds down from the cockpit section. Although similar to the many tri-wing shuttles that appear throughout the entirety of the Star Wars canon, this shuttle is unique to the Bad Batch and first appeared with them in their debut episode on the final season of The Clone Wars. The “Bad Batch shuttle” depicts the Havoc Marauder, a customized Omicron-class attack shuttle. The upper wing is attached to the cover for the crew compartment, which in turn connects to the cockpit canopy. A large gap remains between the wings and the nacelles to allow the wings to fold up. 1×2 plates with Technic pin holes create hinges to attach angled areas between the crew compartment and wings. The folding wings are composed mostly of wedge plates and attach to the Technic joint disks on the main fuselage.

Technic joint disks with liftarms provide anchors for the folding wings. Click-hinges provide angled connections and even some inversions, just behind the cockpit section. The cockpit then attaches to the aft fuselage and crew compartment. The shuttle itself begins with the nose and cockpit, with tiles angled with hinge bricks and a few studs-out wedges for shaping. These are very standard LEGO Star Wars speeders, and we’ll return to them later in the review. The first bag includes the parts for two speeder bikes. The sticker sheet itself features stripes, technical details, and display screens. Despite their relatively small size, the instruction booklet and sticker sheet come in their own wrapper.

Seven numbered bags provide the parts, with two bags numbered 1. Appropriately, three of the clone troopers appear in the upper-right of the box’s front, rather than an unrelated character like Darth Vader.

LEGO Star Wars packaging for builders of all ages is highly standardized, with a “hero shot” showing the minifigs and vehicles in action, with key play features highlighted on the back. Providing TBB with products for review guarantees neither coverage nor positive reviews. The LEGO Group provided The Brothers Brick with an early copy of this set for review. The set is available for pre-order now, and will be released on August 1st.

The first (and so far only) LEGO set based on the TV show is 75314 The Bad Batch Attack Shuttle, which includes 969 pieces with five minifigures for US $99.99 | CAN $139.99 | UK £89.99.

During the final season of The Clone Wars that aired on Disney+ last year, one episode featured Clone Force 99, also known as the “Bad Batch.” Through that backdoor pilot, this group of misfit clone troopers got their own Disney+ series, with inevitable LEGO Star Wars tie-ins.
