Cons
- Aftermarket has crossed $625 sealed
- Roof-removal mechanism is delicate after years
- Some interior detail is sticker-based
LEGO Star Wars Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser
Pros
- Largest Republic-era ship LEGO has ever made — 110cm long
- Clone Wars red-trim paint scheme is rendered in actual brick colour, not stickers
- Hangar bay opens to reveal small Y-Wing and ARC-170 micro-builds
