Description
Mace Windu's Jedi Starfighter
Mace Windu's Jedi starfighter features a cockpit for a minifigure to sit in and a front hatch for R8-B7 to sit in. Its sides are hinged.
Speeder
The speeder features a front hood with a glass window tilted by a handle plate. The back has a slope with two triangular signs attached.
STAPs
Two identical blue-coloured STAPs are included in the set, each piloted by a Battle Droid. A sticker is used on the front of each.
Background
Mace Windu's Delta-7B Jedi Starfighter was used by Mace Windu throughout the Clone Wars. After Mace's droid R8-B7 was destroyed when Mace was trapped with Anakin Skywalker on Vanqor, R2-D2 comandeered this starfighter to go to Coruscant and inform the Jedi of the situation.
Single Trooper Aerial Platforms, commonly referred to as STAPs were flying vehicles commonly used by Battle Droids before and during the Clone Wars.
A flitknot speeder was a vehicle manufactured and used by Geonosians. Count Dooku was known to use a modified version of this speeder during the First Battle of Geonosis, and at least one Tactical Droid was also known to have used one.
Notes
- This is the first set to include the Tactical Droid, however early preliminary images of the 8098 Clone Turbo Tank stated that a Tactical Droid was to be released in that set.
- This set was released in Europe in January 2011, but was not released until the second Star Wars wave in the US and other areas.
- This is the second set to include Mace Windu in his The Clone Wars variant, but the first to have him with a darker transparent purple lightsaber blade.
