What can I build with it?

Description

A figure you build

Instead of a vehicle or a scene, this set gives you the character himself at a much larger scale than a minifigure. You assemble him from 186 pieces, starting with a jointed frame and adding armour as you go. The result can be posed and displayed, and it has a presence on a shelf that a minifigure could never match. There are no minifigures in the box, which makes sense for a set built entirely around one character.

Who Grievous is

General Grievous commands the droid armies of the Separatists during the Clone Wars. Part living being, part machine, he is known for hunting Jedi and keeping their lightsabers as trophies. He appears in Revenge of the Sith, where Obi-Wan Kenobi finally confronts him on Utapau, and he is a recurring enemy in The Clone Wars animated series. His skeletal armour and hunched, menacing frame make him instantly recognisable and a natural subject for a larger figure.

Repetition by design

Only 48 unique elements make up the 186 pieces, a low ratio that is typical of buildable figures. Limbs and joints use the same parts over and over, so the variety lies in how they are combined rather than in the number of different shapes. Black and dark bluish grey form the mechanical core, tan the armour plating and red a small accent. The parts list on this page shows how many of each element you need, which is handy for rebuilds.

Joints for your own creations

The ball joints and connectors from figures like this are valuable for your own robots, mechs and creatures, since they give models real movement. Should you take Grievous apart, the What can I build? feature on this page will show which other sets you can almost complete with the parts you own. Other buildable figures often share many of the same elements, so the step from one character to the next can be surprisingly small.
