LEGO offered some great mini figures with the Sith Nightspeeder including Ventress, Savage Opress and Anakin Skywalker as seen in Star Wars The Clone Wars.
Availability: August 2011
Sculpt & Paint:
The Sith Nightspeeder has two removable speeders by sliding them forward. The speeders are identical and the handlebars can swivel. The ship has three missiles that you can fire by pushing the back part of the missile forward. There are two next to the speeders, and the third is inside the larger piece at the end. Unfortunately there is no weapons storage on this and Ventress and Savage Opress cannot hold both of their weapons while holding on the handlebars. So you will need to come up with another solution to store the weapons or put them in the box. This is more of a fragile vehicle compared to other LEGO Star Wars sets that we’ve seen as it has three separate solid pieces as opposed to one large big one. So be careful when picking it up.
The vehicle is painted mostly in grey and brown, with red transparent tips on the missiles.
Ventress has two red lightsabers and was painted in a black and grey uniform, with a white head.
Savage Opress has a double bladed red lightsaber, an axe, and removable armor. He has trouble standing with the double bladed lightsaber pointing upward as they are taller than he is. He is painted in a black and grey uniform with a black and yellow head.
Anakin has a blue lightsaber and painted in a black and brown uniform, and removable brown hair. He doesn’t fit on the Sith Nightspeeder unless he’s sitting on one of the seats.
Articulation:
Standard for LEGO mini figures.
Overall:
This is a set that is not for everyone as it’s more fragile and not the best design in our opinion. The mini figures however make up for that.
Recommended.
