I feel like the Force, at the moment, is definitely with Huwbot.

I like how this Grievous has arms that actually split down the middle. It’s simple but such an effective feature, although he can’t really hold lightsabers in the two-arm configuration.

This one really goes to show how much of an improvement the 2020 one is over previous versions. The price may be out of control, but the new one definitely does the ship justice.

Hello there!

Huwbot is liking him some 2007 Star Wars this week! I can get behind that, even if neither set really does it for me (and both fall in my Star Wars Dim Age years). I like the model here: something about it feel just a tiny bit spindly in a way this ship would not in a 2021 set, and that appeals to me. As blocky as Grievous's ship is, it's also still a starfighter and should have some of that zip.

My move:

I expected somebody of your reputation to be a little... older. Also, you’re smaller than I expected.

Nonetheless, I might get this. It will make a fine addition to my collection.

As you can see, I have been trained in General Grievous quotes... by Count Dooku! (Okay, I’ll stop now. This is beginning to get so uncivilised)

I actually like the new one more. When you split this Grievous's arms you can't gem into very many poses, but the new one can actually replicate that iconic x-shape he uses before that crazy death wheel attack.

I kind of prefer this version of Grievous over the 2010 redesign.
Main reason: The parts don't break as often and aren't as expensive to replace if they do.

This and the AT-ST certainly don't look as accurate as later versions. But what I liked about this wave is the lower cost. Lots of sets at or around the $20 mark meant they were easier on the wallet. It's about equivalent to $25-30 now. I own a number of sets from this wave, though not this one.

This gets a 'B' grade. It's a good representation of what it's supposed to be and a reasonable price. There were so many SW sets that year (and the UCS Falcon!) that the lower price enabled someone to get a few more of them under the Christmas tree.

@Harmonious_Building
General Kenobi, you are a bold one!

@TheWackyWookiee
All too easy! You must realize you are doomed! They told me this ship was fast! Time to abandon ship!

*COUGH COUGH COUGH*

Decent representation of the ship. I have one. Have two, even. One's for sale, if you want it...

I should consider changing all that dark bley to Black. Maybe give it a neon green cockpit. Or yellow. I think this ship seems better suiter to be a OG Blacktron.

Even the advent calendar version?

It’s honestly weird seeing a Star Wars ship that doesn’t have some kind of shooter mechanic on it. No flick fire missiles? No spring loaded launcher? No stud shooter? Ah the days of old

Yep, back when imagination was a thing. :)
