7163 Republic Gunship is one of those sets you either had, or always dreamed about having.
I never owned it as a kid, but as I’m slowly building this collection, this felt like one of those sets that had to be part of it. It’s almost the same age as me, and somehow that makes it even cooler to finally have it now.
This set comes from the beginning of the best LEGO Star Wars era. LEGO could just put an unnamed random Jedi in a Republic Gunship box… and years later, that figure becomes just iconic.
No movie scene. No real Star Wars backstory. Just a LEGO figure that somehow became one of the most iconic characters in LEGO Star Wars culture.
That’s what makes old LEGO Star Wars so special to me. Some sets weren’t perfect, but they had personality.
Maybe this is your sign to go find that set you always wanted as a kid.
Did you have this one, or was it one you always dreamed about?
