I think this version of the Clone Turbo Tank is a lot more detailed than the previous version 7261 from 2005. I especially love the minifigures of Cad Bane and Aayla Secura. I like the way LEGO desinged how the items were stored such as the walker and weapons. However, it takes up a lot of space and limits the amount of passengers that can fit in the tank. Also, it would have been nice to see some different Jedi other than Anakin and Ahsoka considering the price. Overall, It was an enjoyable build and it displays quite nicely.

Great review!

I got one of these sets using on sale at Toys R' Us before the holidays. I was a bit disappointed in the lack of interior space and the selection of minifigures. Aayla is a nice exclusive, but did we really need another CW set with Anakin and Ahsoka?
