Sup Ryan, just want to mention no matter lego or custom this set is a legend to me and most of the lego community, and this custom combo set can be expensive but used in various Mocs like first/second battle of Geonosis just make up a story of clones using at-ot and not at-te or something, and also can be used in Felucia moc right before 66. You're really lucky that Timmy sends you all these custom sets for free when it's almost like 700-100USD to us or something like that.
Republickbricks knows he’s shipping these to Ryan to review and there are STILL shitty and broken pieces. I can only imagine how much worse the level of quality would be if you buy these as a normal customer.
I don’t use new pieces when new pieces aren’t available widely or sometimes even at all. If you look at all the used pieces in sets, if there are any, most of the time, there is not, it’s because I have no choice. There isn’t any new pieces on bricklink or if there’s new pieces they’re so expensive that the price would be raised hundreds of dollars.
I don’t think most people give a damn weather a piece isn’t new or a bit scuffed up but it’s kinda just unacceptable too include broken pieces. Even if it is a mistake, you should still take a bit of responsibility and not make excuses.
Republic Bricks The “Cylinder Hemisphere 3 x 3 Ball Turret Socket with 2 x 2 Base” in this video is clearly used and literally broken. It’s a common, cheap part with hundreds of BrickLink listings, and you can literally even order it from LEGO’s bricks and pieces. This sounds like an excuse and a poor explanation for why the quality of pieces isn’t 100% in a kit that you knew was going to be reviewed. Again, if the quality isn’t the best in a kit handpicked for review, it makes me seriously doubt the quality would be good for a standard customer.
I like these builds but like the website feels shaddy because everything you click on something it shows not available, not like sold out it just shows 0 showings for page...
I think Republicbricks has gotten dissed in the comment section a lot, which I don’t think he deserves. He puts a lot of effort into designing, sorting, and selling his models. They do cost a lot of money, but are cheaper than the LEGO versions, custom designed, and most of the pieces are new. I personally don’t like used pieces, but I understand why sometimes he has to buy used with really rare ones. I personally really respect him and his company, and am considering buying a drop-ship from him soon.
Same, I had one when I was younger that I never fully built. If I had kept everything I had from 3 to 21 (age now) I’d have probably 1-2000 clones and probably 30k worth of lego sets. Adjusted prices of course because I had several 2008 gunships, ATTEs, 2 dropships, probably 50 of the original clone trooper battle packs, every episode 3 play set, 2 star destroyers, etc. Like uhhhhhhhh why was I such a stupid kid, that was SO MUCH awesome stuff that is just gone.
@@Eidolon5150Even worse, well, I didn't have that much. But at some point when we moved, my grandparents kicked us out of our house( they technically owned it, this was before the economy went to shit, which, lmao, they would've made double if they kept it) they threw away all of my legos. I didn't have as much as you, but I had most of the lego monster fighter sets, the 2007 trooper battle pack, and probably a lot of other ones I forgot. I still had at least 3k worth of legos. I had a lot of Indiana Jones sets too. I do think it's karma that they sold the house before the housing prices went up, they even did that shit when my dad had cancer( stomach cancer) and his parents sold it even then.

For the dropship I like the custom one more because a lot less studs are showing on the wings a lot of detail not as blocky as the official lego one I really love the design choice of the pieces on the front cockpit more then the official lego one it's shorter then the other one which is unfortunate but the wings do look really good love the tubings on the custom dropship i also love the fact that the spine on the custom dropship does also look and is way stronger then the official set because on the official set it's literally just 3 beams slapped together and boom but for this there is well fit beams VERY strong connection another thing I liked about the custom set is that republic Bricks actually put spare time in putting playfeature into a custom lego set which is pretty rare yet really good and another thing I like about the custom dropship is that when you flip it over on its back side the wings don't go limp yet that is seen on the official set which is really unfortunate
On the Lego version, drop the cockpit on the AT-OT, eliminates the space and it still hooks up. Also you can mod all Lego AT-TEs to be carried by the dropship...including the first gen
It seems the Lego designer of the new Coruscant gunship was inspired by this moc since the construction of the seat is nearly identical. The half slope is even the same colour. Neat.
For the AT-OT I think I actually like the lego set version more because has more detail more weapons on the back of the AT-OT. And the legs on the AT-OT actually bend properly which is another reason why I like the lego AT-OT more and in my opinion i think it just over all looks better
Wow, that is crazy. Once for Christmas I got the LEGO Star Wars Poe’s X-Wing Fighter (black & orange) by I was so sad when I saw that almost all the pieces were missing (no minifigures, no stickers, no printed pieces, ALMOST EVERYTHING MISSING) returned it and had to wait a whole year to get another one because it was all sold out everywhere near me!😔
I've bought from him a couple times, don't buy from him. It takes months to receive and by the time you get it you are missing 1/4 of the pieces or they are broken and used.
I think I would rather get a fake dropship with at ot set from aliexpress for 100 rather than paying 5x for a set with pieces that aren’t even all good quality
Republic bricks looked very interesting and I was thinking about buying something, but this just really changed my mind. The website looks a bit sketchy, the lego comes in random ziplock bags, the prices can be pretty high, and there are broken pieces!?
