Republic Swamp Speeder

Five minifigures in a set of 176 pieces is a generous ratio, and it defines this 2010 release. The vehicle itself is the Republic's swamp speeder, seen carrying clone troopers across Kashyyyk in Revenge of the Sith.

Description

Built for bad terrain

Clone troopers need to reach battlefields where walkers and tanks bog down, and the swamp speeder is the answer: a fast, low hovercraft that skims over water and mud. Revenge of the Sith shows these craft during the fight for Kashyyyk, the Wookiee homeworld, as the Republic battles the Separatist droid army. The model keeps the open layout of the real thing, with space for a driver and gunner, and stays compact enough to be flown around by hand without shedding pieces.

An army in a small box

The standout number here is five. That many minifigures in a sub-200-piece set is uncommon, and it changes how the set is used. Children get two sides ready for battle straight out of the box, while collectors building up clone or droid squads get plenty of figures for the price of a small vehicle. We do not list the figures by name here, but the parts list on this page shows every element in detail.

Palette and parts

Light bluish grey leads, followed by black, dark bluish grey and dark red. It is a practical, workmanlike palette, and those greys are among the most reusable colours in any collection. The inventory counts 66 unique parts, a respectable spread of plates, slopes and small technical elements for a set of this size. Check the parts list below to see how the 176 pieces divide across colours before you sort them into your own storage.

Rebuilding and reusing

Sets from around 2010 often turn up in mixed lots with pieces missing. If you are trying to restore this one, the parts list tells you exactly what belongs in the box. And if you are more interested in what else the pieces can become, What can I build? on this page compares the inventory with other sets and highlights the ones you could complete with it. The grey plates and black details are common enough to slot into many other models.
