No doubt I’m getting it. Too bad LEGO decided to delay it, so now we have to wait longer! And yes, it is the greatest Ep. III set, although you could make an argument for Palpatines Arrest!
this set is so close to being perfect, but it need just a few changes before it’s perfect, but it’s crazy we actually got P2 Cody within the same 30 years as P2 Rex!
The fact that it holds 9 troopers, (7 interior seats, 1 gunner, and 1 driver) and the set comes with 5, means that if I pair it with my Utapau battle pack from 2014, I can fill the whole thing with 212th troopers which is awesome. Works out perfectly.
@@Skuge_ if your paying for a premium product than you should get a premium product it doesn’t matter if it will only be in a couple sets as “only the best is good enough “ if the prices keep going up so should the quality.
@@optimised120Yes he's complimented The set and many other several times but You can tell when he complains he complains like a baby in his ATTE comparison video he went on a rant about how the orange tip of the clone trooper printing in this set is slightly cut off by that black line saying and I quote "something LEGO should offer free replacements for" when it's something very minor that has no real effect on the quality of the set and at the end of the day this is just plastic that will soon have no value in the far future. I also personally think he uses Lego's slogan of 'Only the best is good enough' as a crutch to yell his complaints and have some merit of without sounding annoying or obnoxious whether he's right about his opinion or seriously nitpicking
Its a shame it got delayed.. It more of a a shame if it got delayed TWICE! Fun Fact: The Republic Dropship can carry this AT TE if you remove the handle of the AT TE and replace it with the one that attaches to the Dropship.
Just that it is a normal gunner, not a heavy gunner.And gunners uses normal P2 helmet, and they never use Antennas or Rangefinders or Sunvisors, so those holes are completely useless and bad looking.
A perfect minifigs pack would be 2 regular 212th and a 212th airborn trooper, with a crab droid for the side build. Fingers crossed for the 2023 january sets wave !
I personally love that they’re adding the helmet holes again. It allows for a lot more customization when making custom clones which has been rather difficult lately without them.
Can I just mention this is the most clone legions in a wave since the mid 2010s? We had the 41st, 212th, shock, wolf pack, 501st, and a few others in the mid 2010s. Now, we have the 501st and 212th again, the P1 clone bois, the 187th, and the Bad Batch. It looks and feels good.
@@kennysfdg471 they aren't clones but they're still troops part of the Republic who came in a battle pack in 2015 Heck I'm pretty sure there's still something I'm forgetting about
@@chilltrooper9423 he sure is. He’s been buying Star Wars sets since the very beginning. I have the manual for the first Star Wars sets like the x wing and darth mauls ship, the old battle packs. All the old sets and newer ones. But now they are all stored in these giant bins we have and we have at least 20,000 Lego pieces, MAYBE.
After getting this set in hand, I really don’t think the helmet holes are that bad. They have not been distracting at all the antennae also looks nice where they placed it
What I really like about the different weapons racks being detachable is that you can just remove all of those and have four more spots to place Clones.
I think that the option to leave out the jet pack and print it is a pretty good choice because it allows for him to sit in the model. Obviously you could take it off but personally I prefer without it.
It really looks like the best Episode 3 set ever to me. Except the missing Palpatine hologram but damn that's a really cool one. I kinda liked the interior of the last sets that came out (the AT-AT playset and its 3 seats cabin), for example for Episode 3 the last AT-AP with its 2 seats and wide target screen was really good. I don't even talk about the last Millenium Falcon that has...Too much space inside ! xD I think Lego finally realized that our little minifigures need a ride and gave them some place inside vehicles. But I really prefered the last clone helmet molds. They were more accurate. These ones look bulky on the forehead sides and the mouth print is quite small.
If I’m seeing this properly, the printing on the tops of all the helmets appear to differ from what it shown on the box. The 212th trooper is pretty obvious because of the missing point, but I believe Cody’s and the gunner’s printing on top is a bit wider and more spread out than what is on the box. The prints should be closer to the middle than they actually are. I wonder if there is some sort of printing issue with the new helmet, or if Lego just changed the design sometime after rendering the images.
@@MandRproductions what really triggers me with these clones is that on the box the print wraps from on side to the other but irl its squished and makes the clones look like they stubbed their toe.
I can't believe that in 2022, they release a set with MORE minifigures than they ever have included before. Also it has the best balance between the Separatists and the Clones that I think I have ever seen.
I think a 212th Battle Pack to add to this is likely, especially since they made a new-style Airborne Trooper in 2020 and it's not present here. Maybe they didn't include the Crab Droid here because they're saving it for that set, like how the 2014 212th battle pack had the Tri-Droid?
Taking a look at 1:42 I'm more and more convinced that 2017 helmet just looks overall way better: better cheek shadows, no holes, more sleek profile and firstly better visor and mouth print!
There are two words I have to say here. HELL YEAH! I actually like this AT-TE because of the return of Commander Cody and the 212th troopers. I don't own the previous AT-TEs (most notably the 2013 version) so this should be a great set I would get and give it a review. I like it!
Man I can’t wait for this set. Yeah Cody’s visor is a bit off, but you can always get an accurate visor from CAC (if it fits of course)! Other than that this set is hands down my favorite for the august wave. Obi’s starfighter as well
Its so refreshing to see that LEGO really listened to the customers (for once) and actually used the interior space unlike what we got in the AT-TE before that
Great review, Ryan. I’m psyched for this set. Loads of clones and a really nice AT-TE. If they don’t recreate P2 Cody, this set should be worth a ton in a few years. Obviously depending on how long the run is.
Greatest overall! Really wish we’d also gotten a 212th airborne trooper. I know we got one in the Grievous starfighter. But I really love the airborne troopers. Also Ryan as a heads up the Movie had the AT-TE’s scaling cliffs in Teth. Ryloth was at the end of season 1.
I’ve never been more satisfied with a Lego purchase than the UCS AT-AT I love that thing it’s the first UCS set I’ve ever had it’s just amazing to look at in my room and the amount of detail in it and the red visor just everything about it. Well worth the payment
While the clones don’t use the accessories on the box, they still have them included in the set if you want to use them. Fan service. I guess they can’t please everyone though
9,75/10 from me so far (based on this review, I dont own it yet), extremely minor details aside I basically don't see a way they could have done it better, unlike previous at-te's there's just nothing wrong with it, the stuff you and I have problem with is only in context of the past at-tes and that little hole on the helmet.
Maybe they went with the clone wars box stripe to drive more attention to the fact that there are clones in the set and maybe that will give the set the attention it needs to sell for all the casual lego consumers out there (people who don't pay attention to accuracy but rather need visual hints to sell them on the set).
One issue with the set I know which will happen is that it'll be out of stock for months on end. Army building is an aspect of the LEGO Community I dislike as it does make sets impossible to get
I just got this set, and it's a big improvement over the old 2013 model, much more going on in the interior, and it comes with 5 clones instead of a mere 1 that the old one had.
I could fill up the whole atte with Obi Wan, the 3 212th clones, the 212th Airborne clone, Commander Cody and the gunner, I could also use it for the Empire! This is the perfect set
I have 3 Walmarts in my town. With the new merch coming out in March, I figured it would be a good time to check on clearance sales. One WM still had this @ $140. The other two had reduced it to $112. Both WM that reduced it , put it on clearance. $98 at one, and $83 at the other. I could not resist and had to pick it up for $83
The buildable figure of Cody was huge so having a dual mold helmet made sense. In my opinion, a dual molded helmet for the Cody minifigure would be hard because of how small the helmet is.
Thank you Ryan, after watching your reviews I realized I should only watch your videos! After you release your videos, I have noticed 95% of all other UA-camrs say exactly what you say like you’re writing the script for them! Your reviews are honest and well done it’s a shame people steal from you! Your content should be your content lol
The 2014 style p2 clone troopers looked so much better, I still want these clones but they look awful compared to the 2014 ones. The part I hate the most is the cheek part on the helmet along with the eye visor part is not as stretched out.
there is enough room, if you have the 501st battle pack, to fill the at-te with the 501st and 212th figures. I'm excited for this set. Out of the 10+ years of collecting, I haven't gotten one and in the beginning of this year I was hoping one would come out, and it did. Feel like we should of gotten an actual episode III Kenobi, like what we should of gotten with General Grievous' starfighter.
So, I’ve never been a big army builder, however, the excitement around this and phase 2 Cody inspired me to go out and get a 501st battlepack to test the waters, and my wallet is sad to say that I’m now hooked.😂 I’m already planning to buy more 501st, and I plan to buy this as soon as possible. Please pray that I don’t convince myself to buy a second one, my wallet can’t take it🤣
This will be available for a couple of years so no need to rush to buy a second one. Maybe get one now and wait to see if there's a battlepack that comes out.
@@DarthMalaks_Missing_Lower_Jaw Probably not where I live. The 501st has been in stores since late 2020/early 2021. So if that’s any indication, it’ll be a few months before it shows up in stores, but I think it’ll be pretty well stocked at my local targets by February
Sadly I don't think they'll be fixing the clone printing anytime soon. Or ever. The Mando helmet has the same issue that the visor is shown higher up but the actual fig is lowered and has been since release. We are stuck with this design which baffles me cause the old print (even shown on your old 212th CW fig) was way better in comparison. "We are supposed to go up, not down" - Obi-Wan Kenobi
If we’re talking inaccuracies, one major inaccurate detail i don’t see mentioned a lot is the cannon in the at-te. The entire cannon is supposed to move up and down, not just the barrel.
@@aleksiniko But it could still be accurate without that piece or even commander Cody for that matter. That’s something you and I would have wanted but it’s not an objective inaccuracy like the cannon, which is something they’ve even done right before. Just because a set lacks a figure, a piece, or even a build, does not make it inaccurate. However when a figure design or build is objective wrong or incorrect to how it’s portrayed in the source material, that is inaccurate. it is a blatantly inaccurate design of the at-te to have the cannon barrel go up and down and not the cannon as a whole.
Man, this AT-TE was an awesome return and upgrade from 2013. I don’t know why the Republic Gunship had to go backwards and not have any small builds for the interior spaces.
Same. I'm honestly pretty disappointed that we got a phase 2 Cody now and not in the future whenever LEGO realises that the new Clone style is trash and goes back to the 2014 one. I still can't believe they actually approved the ugly design for the 501st troopers.
Don't get me wrong, this set is excellent. the few problems it does have are excusable, I really hate how some people are so quick to call Lego lazy, my theories are that they tried designing a crab droid and new super battle droid, but they couldn't live up to there standard, they also may have used up the budget and time from experimenting with a new super battle droid mold and the mold they actually did use.
@@omarbaba9892 the problem I’ve seen with almost all crab droid builds I’ve see is they take so many pieces definitely more than the spider droid ands that’s probably why they didn’t add it
Bought this set at the beginning of the month on Amazon. Set arrived last night and it love it. Yeah, the helmet holes not being filled in is annoying, there’s an inaccurate print on top of the helmet, and there should’ve been a crab droid, but those are the only real flaws. And NONE of them are about the AT-TE build itself. I’d probably also give the set a 9/10 but it was a really fun build and looks so cool on display
@@aleksiniko I feel like battlepacks shouldn't include named characters because they're used as army builders and if someone buys a bunch of battlepacks they'll have a lot of duplicates of that named character, so a microfighter would make more sense for Commander Cody.
@@Bealls68 yes. But it is likely that Lego would quit making new micro fighter sets. And if that's so then it is likely that lego would either make a battle pack or a 40 dollar set that contains Commander Cody. Lego said that making expensive sets that contain hard to get Minifigures is not right. That's why they made the clone fighter tank and ph 1 clone trooper battle station sets.
I just bought mine 2 days ago. Not done building yet but so far so good. I'm a truck driver and not home much so I buy these when I'm on the road and when the roads are closed cause of snow or I'm waiting 2 days for a load,Legos is what I work on usually
Agreed. I also would have wanted LEGO to make brand new helmet mold for Cody. I didn't expect them to make just holes in the sides. But still I love like the concept and the armor printing. Very nice figure to be added in to my collection.
This is so awesome I've been collecting funko and hot wheels for about 2 years now Use to collect star wars legos up til 2011 Our house burned down n lost it all Just had a few minifigures that survived cause they were in my backpack at the time I still have my og captain Rex Hope to find some of these new sets to add to my new lego collection Really wanna build up my troopers again Had about 150 back then My grandparents then when they were alive use to always buy me 2 of each Now with twin sons it's gunna be a epic ride to build up this new collection
Instead of the spider droid 5hey should've included a crab droid or maybe an optuptara tri droid (like the one that came in the 212th battlepack a few years back)
U will always be my favorite reviewer and comparison-er with sets. Im not watching solidbrix comparison cuz im waiting for yours and im kinda tweakin rn but yeah idk just do the comparisonim hypes for it lol
The stripe nitpick is… quite the nitpick. I honestly quite like the orange stripe, it fits the color palette of the box art as well as the theme (212th) of the set. A blue stripe would’ve stuck out like a sore thumb. I’m not sure this is the reasoning for the orange stripe I’m satisfied nonetheless.
I would assume that the spider droid was included because it utilizes one of the ball turret pieces, which would replace the need to make a crab droid design.

I could fill up the whole atte with Obi Wan, the 3 212th clones, the 212th Airborne clone, Commander Cody and the gunner, I could also use it for the Empire! This is the perfect set
I'm so glad that your review is out!! I'm so excited for Cody! But those helmet holes 💀
I have 3 Walmarts in my town. With the new merch coming out in March, I figured it would be a good time to check on clearance sales. One WM still had this @ $140. The other two had reduced it to $112. Both WM that reduced it , put it on clearance. $98 at one, and $83 at the other. I could not resist and had to pick it up for $83
The buildable figure of Cody was huge so having a dual mold helmet made sense. In my opinion, a dual molded helmet for the Cody minifigure would be hard because of how small the helmet is.
I got this for Christmas and im so excited about it. Its awesome!
I absolutely love the 212th troopers. One of my favorite clone legions and I'm excited to make an army and use them in my Mocs.
This is my DREAM lego set. Probably might get it for Christmas or my birthday
imagine we get a drop ship + an at-ot (even if they are seperate) next year and your able to use the drop ship with the at te too. would be amazing
Drinking game: take a shot every time Ryan says “in years past”
Who else thinks it should have been a crab droid
Me
Thank you Ryan, after watching your reviews I realized I should only watch your videos! After you release your videos, I have noticed 95% of all other UA-camrs say exactly what you say like you’re writing the script for them! Your reviews are honest and well done it’s a shame people steal from you! Your content should be your content lol
I can’t wait for this set! Too bad LEGO decided to screw us over and delay it without telling anyone!
How'd you get screwed over, I'd love to try and help
When i looked at the box art and realized the helmet prints are different than what we go i thought i was going crazy
The 2014 style p2 clone troopers looked so much better, I still want these clones but they look awful compared to the 2014 ones. The part I hate the most is the cheek part on the helmet along with the eye visor part is not as stretched out.
Finally someone said the Helmets print error 🙌 👏 about Time! All other reviews were trying to avoid the subject. Thanks M&R 👌
there is enough room, if you have the 501st battle pack, to fill the at-te with the 501st and 212th figures. I'm excited for this set. Out of the 10+ years of collecting, I haven't gotten one and in the beginning of this year I was hoping one would come out, and it did. Feel like we should of gotten an actual episode III Kenobi, like what we should of gotten with General Grievous' starfighter.
Man for the most part I've lost out on those clone wars sets but having the coruscant guard gunship and this really helps to fill that void in my soul
So, I’ve never been a big army builder, however, the excitement around this and phase 2 Cody inspired me to go out and get a 501st battlepack to test the waters, and my wallet is sad to say that I’m now hooked.😂 I’m already planning to buy more 501st, and I plan to buy this as soon as possible. Please pray that I don’t convince myself to buy a second one, my wallet can’t take it🤣
This will be available for a couple of years so no need to rush to buy a second one. Maybe get one now and wait to see if there's a battlepack that comes out.
@@DarthMalaks_Missing_Lower_Jaw they’d be stupid not to release a 212th legion/battlepack set to go with this at-te
@@DarthMalaks_Missing_Lower_Jaw Probably not where I live. The 501st has been in stores since late 2020/early 2021. So if that’s any indication, it’ll be a few months before it shows up in stores, but I think it’ll be pretty well stocked at my local targets by February
@@DarthMalaks_Missing_Lower_Jaw does it mean i do not have to worry about the at te being sold out, where Can i find out when particular sets retire?
I’ve been saving since I first saw this I need it in my collection set is immaculate and it has my favorite clone legion I’m so hyped
Sadly I don't think they'll be fixing the clone printing anytime soon. Or ever. The Mando helmet has the same issue that the visor is shown higher up but the actual fig is lowered and has been since release. We are stuck with this design which baffles me cause the old print (even shown on your old 212th CW fig) was way better in comparison.
"We are supposed to go up, not down" - Obi-Wan Kenobi
its a lego set at the end of the day
"...and then some caution, or like, I'm an AT-TE watch out...lights, I guess."
that was so funny, don't ever change, Ryan, I love you bro
If we’re talking inaccuracies, one major inaccurate detail i don’t see mentioned a lot is the cannon in the at-te. The entire cannon is supposed to move up and down, not just the barrel.
Yeah that was my main issue with the 2013 set. Shame they didn't fix it here.
I think it's fine. The order 66 scene can be made with only the barrel moving up. But still Lego should have put a palpatine hologram into the set.
@@aleksiniko But it could still be accurate without that piece or even commander Cody for that matter. That’s something you and I would have wanted but it’s not an objective inaccuracy like the cannon, which is something they’ve even done right before. Just because a set lacks a figure, a piece, or even a build, does not make it inaccurate. However when a figure design or build is objective wrong or incorrect to how it’s portrayed in the source material, that is inaccurate. it is a blatantly inaccurate design of the at-te to have the cannon barrel go up and down and not the cannon as a whole.
The amount of times Ryan says “in years past” is impressive
I got this Lego set for Christmas and I loved it. But it took me 5 hours to build...
Im nerding out while watching this. I love this set and cant wait to get it. I really needed more 212th troopers and i really want Cody.
The 2008 one could be propped up on its hind legs, but the two grey slope pieces on the back panel would usually break off
Man, this AT-TE was an awesome return and upgrade from 2013. I don’t know why the Republic Gunship had to go backwards and not have any small builds for the interior spaces.
This is the most hyped set this year! Hopefully now after Phase 2 Commander Cody they can make a new and updated Phase 2 Captain Rex!
Yes! I would love to get Captain Rex next. Maybe Commander Fox after Rex!
@@aleksiniko Yeah! That sounds like it would be amazing!
Lol watching that clone bob around in the gunner seat was quite funny
I am all for clone troopers, but I still think the 2014 version of the phase II clones looks waaaay better 🥲
Same. I'm honestly pretty disappointed that we got a phase 2 Cody now and not in the future whenever LEGO realises that the new Clone style is trash and goes back to the 2014 one.
I still can't believe they actually approved the ugly design for the 501st troopers.
I'm gonna take a shot for everytime M&R says "Years past."
Awesome video man! This is probably my favorite AT-TE to date, figures out considered.
Don't get me wrong, this set is excellent. the few problems it does have are excusable, I really hate how some people are so quick to call Lego lazy, my theories are that they tried designing a crab droid and new super battle droid, but they couldn't live up to there standard, they also may have used up the budget and time from experimenting with a new super battle droid mold and the mold they actually did use.
Occam's razor, they are probably just lazy
No it’s definitely lazy, you can create a great looking crab droid using regular pieces
I’m hoping that they didn’t put in the crab droid cuz it might be in the potential 2023 battle pack and wanted it to be exclusive
@@omarbaba9892 the problem I’ve seen with almost all crab droid builds I’ve see is they take so many pieces definitely more than the spider droid ands that’s probably why they didn’t add it
@@StonyCarrot1001 but it direct use any large moulds like the round ball piece thing used as the head
God damn daddy,you don't know how much I waited for this review
i wonder if the handle on top will be used for a new LAAT gunship to carry it and drop into the battle
Ack! That darn spider droid again! If only we had a crab droid… So close!
Phase 2 Cody makes up $130 of the set and rest of minifigs represent $10
What about the actual set?
@@trentoninnewjersey pocket change
Well technically $139.99
Bro we literally have the same cat
@@nathandavern7030 yo no way
Bought this set at the beginning of the month on Amazon. Set arrived last night and it love it. Yeah, the helmet holes not being filled in is annoying, there’s an inaccurate print on top of the helmet, and there should’ve been a crab droid, but those are the only real flaws. And NONE of them are about the AT-TE build itself.
I’d probably also give the set a 9/10 but it was a really fun build and looks so cool on display
Man, if they keep Cody exclusive to this set…. Retirement will go REALLY WELL for this set
I’ve never heard him so happy reviewing a set
I hope phase 2 Cody comes in something cheaper like a micro-fighter down the line.
Lego might make a 212th trooper battlepack that contains airborne trooper or Commander Cody.
@@aleksiniko I feel like battlepacks shouldn't include named characters because they're used as army builders and if someone buys a bunch of battlepacks they'll have a lot of duplicates of that named character, so a microfighter would make more sense for Commander Cody.
@@Bealls68 yes. But it is likely that Lego would quit making new micro fighter sets. And if that's so then it is likely that lego would either make a battle pack or a 40 dollar set that contains Commander Cody. Lego said that making expensive sets that contain hard to get Minifigures is not right. That's why they made the clone fighter tank and ph 1 clone trooper battle station sets.
I just bought mine 2 days ago. Not done building yet but so far so good. I'm a truck driver and not home much so I buy these when I'm on the road and when the roads are closed cause of snow or I'm waiting 2 days for a load,Legos is what I work on usually
I think, this is the best clone set we got in 4 years, but i also think that the Helmet holes could be better.
Agreed. I also would have wanted LEGO to make brand new helmet mold for Cody. I didn't expect them to make just holes in the sides. But still I love like the concept and the armor printing. Very nice figure to be added in to my collection.
This is so awesome
I've been collecting funko and hot wheels for about 2 years now
Use to collect star wars legos up til 2011
Our house burned down n lost it all
Just had a few minifigures that survived cause they were in my backpack at the time
I still have my og captain Rex
Hope to find some of these new sets to add to my new lego collection
Really wanna build up my troopers again
Had about 150 back then
My grandparents then when they were alive use to always buy me 2 of each
Now with twin sons it's gunna be a epic ride to build up this new collection
I'm nine years old and I am trying to get this set! I already have 102$ 😃
1. That’s so amazing, keep saving!
2. If you’re nine, you shouldn’t have a YT channel (I think UA-cam terms of service says you need to be 13)
My brother said this on my account haha I am 13 and he is 9. He actually brought the set and is so happy with it
You could get it in England for 88.99£
I’m here for the holes on the gunner. A black visor would be killer on that fig
Instead of the spider droid 5hey should've included a crab droid or maybe an optuptara tri droid (like the one that came in the 212th battlepack a few years back)
U will always be my favorite reviewer and comparison-er with sets. Im not watching solidbrix comparison cuz im waiting for yours and im kinda tweakin rn but yeah idk just do the comparisonim hypes for it lol
The stripe nitpick is… quite the nitpick. I honestly quite like the orange stripe, it fits the color palette of the box art as well as the theme (212th) of the set. A blue stripe would’ve stuck out like a sore thumb. I’m not sure this is the reasoning for the orange stripe I’m satisfied nonetheless.
A nitpicks are valid flaws... and for 140 dollars, there shouldn't be printing errors and/or false advertising to this magnitude
@@timewarpdrive77 Yeah, but it's lego, what do you expect?
@@GrandAdmiralGonk I expect them to make a quality product... which is an expectation thats regularly subverted
@@timewarpdrive77 OK, you have a point
@@GrandAdmiralGonk “OnLy ThE bEsT iS gOoD eNoUgH”
I got this set for Christmas and I'm really enjoying it
Same!
I would assume that the spider droid was included because it utilizes one of the ball turret pieces, which would replace the need to make a crab droid design.
OMG finally man I’ve been waiting for your review! And why did Lego send it to every Lego UA-camr except for you 😢?
Because he’s not in the Lego ambassador network anymore
@@omarbaba9892 sadly
For once, I’m finally gonna get an AT-TE edit: I actually think the helmet holes make the helmet look cooler
They dont even look that bad imo
