I have a bit less expensive option for the white bubble turret. You could use the 4x4 dome piece the piece name in pick a brick is "DOME Ø32". While it would be a bit bigger, it would be less expensive than the other bubble you used...I don't have an idea for the underside though. If you look at the screenshot you used at 5:46, there is a laser cannon on the underside of the wing bubble, so you could probably do something with that and make it look bubbleish.
@melgoats1453 the one in aotc has one door that doesnt close all of the way. the doors on the clone wars version closes all of the way and has 2 doors. there is no version with just 1 door that closes all of the way
9:41 I welcome the challenge regardless. Despite the flaws with newer lego sets, I love that they get my creative juices flowing to make newer improved designs.
Loved how you used the parts from the handle to make the flick fire missiles! The handle also gets a modification for a 2013 style handle since you took off those parts and reused them! Amazing video David!
Good to see these fixes to the set on so many channels hopefuly Lego gets aware of these. I'm wondering what there thoughts were on making these changes when they had other iterations being so good. Some if not most of them are easy fixes. Still bought this with the ghost on day one with a nice discount on both of them 😄can't wait to add these fixes!
The colour change was something I was thinking of doing myself but because of a lack of money that idea went out the window swiftly, it would be epic if you did a colour change!!!!
Picked this set up. Added the missiles on top using the mechanical claw and silver light silver hilts that makes it look more like a missile. I also tiled off around it. Also doing a mod of the wing stud shooters taking them away and utilising the pieces to make a light as per the Mandalorian chase scene with lights on the Gunship wings
I would consider buying it now that I know there are some good modifications I can do to improve it, but I'm still gonna buy the Ghost instead of the gunship. Also I would love to see you make it into a regular white and red gunship. Love the content, keep up the good work!
honestly, it really is not that significant of a difference. It doesn't look "sO mUcH bEtTeR" it just looks a little better. Which is why i hate lego fans ragging on this set because honestly I love this gunship design and is probably my 1st or second favorite one.
I see a window near to your legos. i have a question don't you affraid that sun light will destroy your legos colors? i m asking bc im getting more curious about that kind of thing
I also don’t know why LEGO didn’t implement these features when designing this set. I’m surprised they didn’t even include a small build or tools rack for the space.
They didn’t implement these features because this set is made for 9+ kids. With the more accurate ball turret there would be no firing play feature that all Star Wars sets have. The double doors aren’t durable enough. The back doors are because they are held on by two arms but the front one would be very flimsy and fall off if any kid tried to play rough with it. I don’t see any other way Lego could have made the front doors more stable without making the gunship look bad. The missiles on the back are the only thing that they should have included.
Look Firebird Bricks turret mods, they're fully round, no modified plate with clips or handle bar on the bubble, also sits flusher/cleaner. Love the interior and door mod tho.
My biggest issue really is the single door and the empty space under the cockpits. Really don´t see a reason on why lego did that. I understand the ball turrets though as it adds more play features than just a dome
Hi, your version of the double door looks different from the one in the video in the description (i have tried it)...yours works better in the alignment with the main body; can you explain us how to modify it as you did? Thank you very mutch!
Yes to your question. To take it a step further, do it for each legion! Ex: Wolfpack, 501st, Horn Co., 212th, Geonosis, munnilist, etc. (a guy's gotta ask, right?... For the Republic!) I have several custom gunships purchased a couple of years ago and those designs were better than the official Lego set. Cool mods and agree with everything stated.
Yeah totally agree gunship needed the double doors for ease of use. Definitely mod my copies. But I rly think the gunship issues and flaws have been overshadowing the flaws and issues of the Ashoka sets.
So irritating how just a little more extra work on LEGO's end could've made this set a real show-stopper. Great job with the double doors... I do not know why this is so hard for a set designer to do... I made the statement that it would be smart to wait for modification guides before deciding on investing in this set. I was not wrong, great job with the modifications. On with a personal gripe, only two troopers and a commander for a transport? LEGO is really cutting corners, not only with quality issues like the doors but with quantity issues as well.
The fact that it's so easy to add the double doors just shows how lazy these designers really are when it comes to prequel sets Edit* Also wanted to say I enjoy this "Fixing what lego missed" video, and I think you could apply the same concept to other Lego sets the community has been unhappy with. A color change video would be cool
I miss the days when larger flagship sets used to include mini builds that complimented the main builds, like the AT-RT that came with the turbo tank (2010) or the bacta tank with the '08 gunship. Stuff like that just added more life to the sets and it's a shame that Lego doesn't really do that anymore.
I would love to see a color change moc tbh because I could never afford any of the Lego gunships as a kid but now I’m in my 20s and considering picking this one up but I’m hesitant since I’m not crazy on the colors and the build itself is… eh? But the modifications may sway me to buying it anyway
Yes please do a recolor of this gunship I think that would be really helpful towards me because I never had a gunship before and I started to take up a job so I can start making enough money to get it do the recolor and double doors mod side really appreciated if you do the recolor mod
I can understand Lego's decision with the missiles and the ball turret, but I feel like they really copped out with only doing a single door.
I don’t like the double cause it’s not realistic cause the gunship door is one door.
The CG gunship only has one door so its not a cop out its more accurate
@@peabrain6872 It has Double doors In the show
@@peabrain6872the CG gunship is like every other gunship in the Clone Wars show, it has 2 doors on each side.
@@mikagrof9243 i looked up the source material and everything i could find had 1 door and the ball turrets on the side had no door
please make a coruscant moc if the clones appear in a magazine
I am going to do one if that happens

The fact Lego didn't give this set a double door off the bat is baffling. It's like making an X wing without folding wings.
Really ruins the accuracy of the build
would like but its at 69
Actually they really do have only single doors. The CG gunship is just built slightly differently than the regular one in AoTC
@melgoats1453 the one in aotc has one door that doesnt close all of the way. the doors on the clone wars version closes all of the way and has 2 doors. there is no version with just 1 door that closes all of the way
In the films they didn't have double doors
A colour change video would be cool, as there are multiple different colours of gunships across SW media.
Yasss!!!
I’d especially like a Tiger Shark mod to make it look like the 2003 ARC trooper gunship
I just parted out the pieces I need to turn the 3 gunships I bought to turn them into classic gunships
@@PteranoLivWHY DID YOU BUY 4 HOW MUCH MONEY DO YOU HAVE
@@ionobru i bought 3 XD I just graduated and used the gift money to buy some LEGO
Awesome, love the double doors. And yes would love to see a color swap, with the double doors.
9:41 I welcome the challenge regardless. Despite the flaws with newer lego sets, I love that they get my creative juices flowing to make newer improved designs.
I would definitely want to see a color change and how similar the parts list is to the original versions
Loved how you used the parts from the handle to make the flick fire missiles! The handle also gets a modification for a 2013 style handle since you took off those parts and reused them! Amazing video David!
You can’t even “flick” the missiles so they’re really just a rocket decoration 😂 still looks cool tho

A color swap could be awesome to see, I would like to see it happen!!👍
please
Hi, can we have the parts list please ? thx
A full color change of the Gunship would be awesome for you to do.
The colour change was something I was thinking of doing myself but because of a lack of money that idea went out the window swiftly, it would be epic if you did a colour change!!!!

Thanks David for the advice on improving the Republic Gunship!
I would love a full color change of this set, that would be awesome! (Of the upgraded version of course)
Could you do some mods for the new Ahsoka T6 shuttle? Like making the cockpit bigger and adding plates to the side that’s completely grey.
Yeah the tiny cockpit totally kills the set in my opinion.
The timing is perfect I'm literally building this set rn haha
David you should do a color swap of it to be an actual Gunship lol.
Exactly bro!!
This is an actual Gunship, I assume you mean a Republic Gunship but there's multiple other versions of the Gunship
Thanks for the frequent vids! Great quality and detailed videos
Yes, please do the color swap to a regular gunship that would be sick
I would consider buying it now that I know there are some good modifications I can do to improve it, but I'm still gonna buy the Ghost instead of the gunship. Also I would love to see you make it into a regular white and red gunship. Love the content, keep up the good work!
Color swap video please! Break down costs and any details that a normal collector would have to go through if you could as well!
Great video! I would absolutely love a color swap if you can make it happen.
I actually like the stud shooters on the wings because I mean where else would they put those
honestly, it really is not that significant of a difference. It doesn't look "sO mUcH bEtTeR" it just looks a little better. Which is why i hate lego fans ragging on this set because honestly I love this gunship design and is probably my 1st or second favorite one.
Love seeing these moc/mod videos, really interesting to get other peoples take on lego sets

The mods definitely make me a lot more interested in picking one up. And yes do the color swap
It’s ridiculous how simple it would’ve been for Lego to just make it 100x better
Sweet!! Thanks 😊
You are the best... Please create a video with full color changes, it would be awesome to see how you will upgrade this set to new level.
Can you do a video for a piece swap to make it look like the regular gunship with the green and white and red? Pleaseee
Thank you for this!!
Awesome mods! I especially love the double doors. Thank you for sharing. I am going to picking up this set soon.
It would be awesome to see a color swap! Amazing video, thank you!
Hands down, my favorite MOC maker
Awesome walk through and very thorough video.!! Many thanks from all the real star wars AFOL ,your a legend
Please do a full color change with parts list if possible!
Look Firebird Bricks turret mods, they're fully round, no modified plate with clips or handle bar on the bubble, also sits flusher/cleaner. Love the interior and door mod tho.
PLEEEEEEEASE DO THE RECOLOR!!!! I was LITERALLY looking for a recolor video right as you mentioned it
I literally bought mine yesterday, thank you for the ideas
Do the conversion! I'd love to see that!
My biggest issue really is the single door and the empty space under the cockpits. Really don´t see a reason on why lego did that. I understand the ball turrets though as it adds more play features than just a dome
I think I’m going to do the ball turret mod and the double door mod. I may also add a bacta tank to the open space under the cockpit.
Pretty cool Mods. I am definitely doing some of these mods. Thanx for the video.
This is the beauty of Lego you can change any set to the way you like it to be. Or customize it the way you want it.😊
Nice mods! YES I would like to see you change it to the standard white gunship!!
Hi, your version of the double door looks different from the one in the video in the description (i have tried it)...yours works better in the alignment with the main body; can you explain us how to modify it as you did? Thank you very mutch!
I’d like to see you do a series where you go though recoloring the gunship to plain, 501st, Wolfpack, muunilist 10, etc
I'd really want to see an original color scheme gunship with this design
Can we please get an updated LEGO room your vid
I want to see an extension of the gunship... would 4-8 studs be appropriate? I am curious as to what you think is an appropriate stretch.
yes a color change video would be awsome looking forward to your future geonosis content
This video made me actually want the gunship now
These modifications are great!! Curious are you going to be do another whatnot giveaway with a gunship Solid Brix Studio?
Wow great mods that definitely elevate the set
Do the color swap! I'm getting my gunship next week so I will try aswell.
Yes to your question. To take it a step further, do it for each legion! Ex: Wolfpack, 501st, Horn Co., 212th, Geonosis, munnilist, etc. (a guy's gotta ask, right?... For the Republic!)
I have several custom gunships purchased a couple of years ago and those designs were better than the official Lego set.
Cool mods and agree with everything stated.
yes do the convertion
Hope we get a 2013 like Republic gunship sometime. Never had one
Why he has a 6321747 piece behind the gunship pls respond me
Yeah totally agree gunship needed the double doors for ease of use. Definitely mod my copies.
But I rly think the gunship issues and flaws have been overshadowing the flaws and issues of the Ashoka sets.
Looks awesome with the mods
Thanks for this video, it helped me a lot
i think a color change would be cool to see, i've been thinking about trying to recolor the set into a Muunilist 10 gunship personally.
Love the modification!
This went from a skip to something I’d actually buy. Love the modifications, too bad Lego didn’t include them
Yes I would love to see a color change of the gunship
The white ball turrets look incredible
love the mods! would love to see more videos like this 👍
Do the colour change please, I’ve thought about doing it myself

Absolutely do a normal color scheme gunship! 👍🏻 Subbed!
Wow guard ship moc looks brilliant enjoyed your greengots bank review
A video that’s 11:38 runtime? Well played David 😂
The fact that it's so easy to add the double doors just shows how lazy these designers really are when it comes to prequel sets
Edit* Also wanted to say I enjoy this "Fixing what lego missed" video, and I think you could apply the same concept to other Lego sets the community has been unhappy with. A color change video would be cool
I think the reason for them being called "claw" pieces is because in their debut, they were Claws, in Exo-Force
They are called mechanical claws because they originally came from the robot minifigure hands from the Exo-Force series.
Do you have a list of the missing pieces to order them?
I miss the days when larger flagship sets used to include mini builds that complimented the main builds, like the AT-RT that came with the turbo tank (2010) or the bacta tank with the '08 gunship. Stuff like that just added more life to the sets and it's a shame that Lego doesn't really do that anymore.
Fantastic. I was waiting for this.
Yes please do the modifications in white
I would love to see a color change moc tbh because I could never afford any of the Lego gunships as a kid but now I’m in my 20s and considering picking this one up but I’m hesitant since I’m not crazy on the colors and the build itself is… eh? But the modifications may sway me to buying it anyway
Is there a parts list for the modifications? Solid Brix Studios?
Man I wish I had all that Lego in the background lmao, always though about starting a massive collection
Bring on the color swap!
Not interested in a full white one but I am interested if you make a bigger one using 2 or 3 of these sets
Yes
As soon as i saw this video, i immediately went on bricklink and ordered as much of those white windshield pieces as possible
Great video
Yes please do a recolor of this gunship I think that would be really helpful towards me because I never had a gunship before and I started to take up a job so I can start making enough money to get it do the recolor and double doors mod side really appreciated if you do the recolor mod
they definitely messed up the gunship, not worth the $140 price tag
Yes I would like to see the color change
Most of the things I’m meh I guess but the dual doors is crucial because of the extra space you get access to in the back
Hey Dave, I was also considering doing the colour swap, so yes, please do that video 😅
They should hire people like you to review the Lego sets and make the sets even better, might be more expensive though
