Description

The best of the figures has to be Cara Dune, who first showed up in the episode related to the set and immediately commanded the spotlight. Yes, it’s still The Baby Yoda Show, but she was one of the most interesting characters we only got little scraps of history on in this episode. I think it’s a solid likeness, though I think she could have gotten a better weapon here as well. Not sure what it should be, I’d have to go watch it again, but she was a commando, and a giant rifle doesn’t seem right here. This AT-ST may be not far off from the right scale for the minifigs, but it just feels bigger than it should be. We get two generic raiders, which fits, since that’s really all they were in the show as well. They’re fine, and will be disintegrated like anyone else. Still, I wish they would have done more with the villagers side, or added a touch of variety (the raiders weren’t all Klatoonians as I remember). It’s a proper name, so it can’t really be used, but Klatooinian feels like someone just trying to cheat at Scrabble This LEGO Star Wars - AT-ST Raider is suitable for children and adults aged 8 years and older. The small parts present a choking hazard for children under 3. More LEGO Star Wars Sets This is an ideal LEGO set for kids and adults who enjoy model building and imaginary play. With the figures, weapons and movable parts of the Raider, you can get lost in a Galactic world. What age is this LEGO Set for?

The characters are The Mandalorian, Cara Dune and two of the Klatooinian Raider figures. Each mini-figure carries a weapon and can be positioned inside the openable canopy. Extra Features of the AT-ST Raider

Includes 4 LEGO® Star Wars™ characters: The Mandalorian, Cara Dune and 2 Klatooinian Raider minifigures. The weird thing is the choice to include his rifle, but mount it on a pistol. Why not use a full rifle with a shorter end, or even the same end so they get the fork in place? It feels weird, and doesn’t look right when he’s holding it. If you did a cursory glance at the LEGO Star Wars catalog, you’d think that the only thing that LEGO made in the line would be Luke’s Landspeeder, X-Wings, Jedi fighters, and for some reason recently, the Throne Room fro Return of the Jedi. Oh, and AT-STs. They love some AT-STs.

This isn’t to say LEGO can’t be used to make bigger and more screen-accurate sets, but that’s what the UCS sets are for. And some of those comes with figures, but obviously we’re not to take them as to scale. That’s a huge issue with this set… the color is jarring and ugly, which would be fine if the source material was jarring and ugly. But it’s not, it’s far, far, far more subdued in the show. This is really an example where less could have been more, or LEGO could have made the color look more bolted or slapdash, rather than coloring the entire legs as red and brown. I eluded to this earlier, but if you have the 75153 AT-ST Walker from a few years ago… you’ve got this set. Maybe there are a few parts different… I don’t have the last one to compare, but just looking at Ace’s pictures on that review shows them to be effectively identical. It was an average set to begin with, and it’s not made better by swapping out the color.First up, our friend Din Djarin, is… fine, I guess. Something about it feels too bright and colorful. In the first couple of episodes, he had more leather under his Beskar armor, but by this point, he had a lot more steel on. More than that, most of the rest of the under-armor and leather was a dark tan to gray. Even just toning down the tan in the figure would have helped. Minifigure wise, we get The Mandalorian, Cara Dune, and 2 Klatooinian Raider minis in the set. This is a decent lineup, but I feel like the set would have really benefitted from adding an Omera minifigure to it. I get why Baby Yoda (he will never be just “The Child”) isn’t in the set, it was made well before the series launched, but nothing would be given away adding Omera, and she was critical to the whole affair. The weapons for Mando and Cara both feel far too long… everything about how they’re made feels kinda phoned in. It’s no secret that I liked the Mandalorian (and no, I have no idea when Ace will get the review for the last episode done)… in fact, the episode that features this particular set was one that I reviewed. Episode 4 of the first season, Sanctuary, was one of my favorites for the season. It introduced Kara Dune, it gave us one of the best gifs of the series, and was generally just a tone-setter for the series going forward. I do not get tired of this gif.
