    I LOVE this set

    Written by (TFOL) in Ireland,

    The catamaran looks so cool, with so many good play features. The minifigs are very rare, and i understand why, because they are some of the best minifigures made. The Luminara is my favourite Lego Star Wars figure of all time. It recreates the battle of kashyyyk PERFECTLY.

    Catamaran

    Written by (AFOL) in Canada,

    I remember getting this set for my 10th birthday when it came out. I loved it instantly. Great parts, fun build, and awesome minifigures (I'll delve in to those later). And it had 2 vehicles, so playability skyrockets.

    Parts

    The catamaran has some pretty standard parts, some in different colours than usual, but I believe most of the pieces for the catamaran I previously had. I do believe; however, that this was the first set of mine to have a spring loaded missile.

    The swamp speeder had pretty basic pieces too, but it had a few printed pieces that aren't available in any other set.

    Minifigures

    Six minifigures in a $50 set. Wow! And one of them is a light up Jedi! The minifigs in this set are really the golden point. Two wookies, Chewbacca and a Wookie warrior. Two Jedi, Yoda and Luminara. And two swamp clones, in phase 2 armour with a green pattern.
    I'll start on the wookies:
    ?I don't think there was anything new about the Chewbacca minifig, but the Wookie warrior was a new mold I believe. Not for this set, but for the Episode 3 line of sets. There were 2 or 3 with this Wookie warrior I think. Chewbacca is cool because I could use him in both this set, and in original trilogy sets. The Wookie warrior is just a cool new minifigure. Nothing necessarily special about it, just cool looking.
    Now, on to the Jedi:
    Two Jedi, Yoda and Luminara. Awesome. Yoda has the standard short legs used for things like kid Boba Fett, and Ewoks (Yoda's are tan to match his robes). This was about 9 years ago so I don;t remember for sure, but I think Yoda had a green lightsaber. I know he had a brown walking stick, but this is before his battle with Palpatine, so he should have his lightsaber.
    Luminara was a light up Jedi with a green lightsaber. At the time, I thought light up Jedi were awesome. Now I'm wishing it hadn't been. The arm just looks clunky, and the battery is dead now, so it doesn't even work anymore. Other than the light up bit, she is a cool minifigure, with a sweet new headpiece.
    Next, the clones:
    Ah, the clones. The guys are probably in my top ten favorite minifigure list. To most, they just see a phase 2 clone with a green pattern. And, for the most part, they are right. And I see that too. But I used them both so much over the years, they just became my favorite. And plus, I'm pretty sure this was the only set they were in, so that makes them all the more rare. They had the standard (for the time) megaphone blaster, with a blue stud on the end, rather than the usual orange or red. Overall, two of my favorite minifigures.

    Playability

    Awesome playability. You can have it take place after order 66, and have the clones and wookies fighting, or you can set it up against some droids and stage a clone/wookie joint battle against some clankers. Either way, great playability in this set.

    Overall opinion

    When I was 10, I would have rated it a 9/10, after writing this review, and thinking about everything it had, I would definitely give it a 10/10. If you can find it somewhere for a good price. Buy it. You won't be dissapointed.

  • wookies

    Written by (Unspecified , bronze-rated reviewer) in United Kingdom,

    I was so surprised that this set had such a low piece count when I got. That doesn't matter to me because the content is awesome. I read a lego magazine and a person who works at lego said that this set took the longest to design out of the episode 3 sets. The swamp speeder is a good bonus and I'allways open to a few extra clones. Also The cannon on the catamaran is awesome and worth at least 100 pieces.
