Perhaps it was because there was no more space on board or, which I hope, because she will be released in a later Batch Bad set. However the big, big omission is that there is no Omega figure!! - she plays such an important role in the series, often taking the lead that it seems strange she wasn’t included. The likeness of the figures is great but it remains a bit odd that Echo has his hand rather than an electronic tool/hook. There is even a Gonk droid included for Wrecker so that he can waste some time weight lifting it. The figure selection is extremely good with all new figures. This is a particular eyesore with this shuttle when its wings are folded up.
However the reverse sides of the wings invariably look ugly and archaic, merely showing the underside or interconnected Lego plates. One thing about the completed set I would say is that I’m very much looking forward to Lego to start using ‘reverse’ tiles and plates - most of the spaceship models look stunning these days in particular since they have limited amounts of studs on the outside. I only stepped in to put the stockers in place, of which there are quite a few. There weren’t any stages that proved tricky for him as a fairly experienced builder. The build o the 969 piece set was enjoyable, it took us about 2.5 hours over a couple of sessions, with me picking the parts and my young padawan putting everything together (even though he is 2 years below the recommended set age). I would have rather have had a slightly larger shuttle with even more inside space. Personally I am less of an enthusiast for speeders, we have plenty of them and I find it strange that even one of them was included in this set. Unfortunately Lego continues to include these abominable spring loaded missiles that always shoot when you don’t want them to and that we keep finding around our house - even our children don’t like them. Therefore it also offers much play value given the folding wings and the fact that it can be opened to hold four of the figures.
The set comes with quite a few mini-figures and two speeders.
The shuttle, that has rapidly become an iconic ship, looks very nice given its pleasing somewhat unique blue/grey colour scheme, the unusual wing position and overall size. But I also have some points of criticism. We are very pleased with the set, as it is always great to have a ship other than an x-wing or tie fighter in our collection.
LEGO BAD BATCH SHUTTLE LEAK IMAGE SERIES
I was excited to get this shuttle for our son’s birthday, he is a big fan of the the Bad Batch series and I must admit I enjoyed watching it with him.
