Such a sleeper set, I remember wanting this back in the day. I wish theyd remake it
I would like that too but it's very unlikely.
Imagine mass effect lego sets😢
I think it's very unlikely they'll ever remake it but hey you never know
@lordofchronos7985 That would be nothing short of legendary. Imagine a UCS style Normandy. I think a mini figure series would be awesome as well
@KosherPorky ikr personally I would love to see a reaper maybe even Sovereign it would definitely be a challenge to make a model of him
I don’t get the hate for it. People seem to hate the Lego set, but what’s there to hate, since it’s accurate to the show? Sure it looks bulky and one-coloured and boring, but that was kind of the point of the ship in the clone wars, because it shows that no matter the ship design, Anakin can fly it.
I love the design, the box shape is amazing. I upgraded it to fix all the holes from bottom and inside. In my top 3 Lego sets.
It might be ugly in the show, and therefore ugly in Lego. But accuracy doesn’t make for an interesting set, especially compared to other sets out there. I don’t hate it, but it’s definitely on the bottom of my list of sets to spend over $100 on.
@@Linus_B I can see that, however I was talking about the actual kind of hate towards it you know
I can very clearly remember going to the store and choosing what I might like to get for Christmas. This was simply a starship that wasn't symmetrical. Definitely, the set wasn't popular because it released in a time when lego could do no wrong. The AT-TE was too awesome not to get it. The gunship was a must-have. It was the first time everyone wanted to build a clone army. Isn't the legendary MTT from that era too?
In other words, if you had a birthday or christmas coming up, this set wasn't on your mind as a kid. Not because it's bad, but because we were all much more fascinated with the enormous war between clones and droids at the time. Remember the clone wars movie? Where this ship is a main plot point? Yeah, I hardly remember anything about Rota the hutt in the Twilight, but I'll never forget that awesome battlefield at the start of the movie, or the scene where the AT-TE climb up the wall.
It's very hard to place ourselves back in 2008 and see this set for what it was, to us, at that time. Now it's awesome and we take the clone wars & their battles for granted. Back then it was the first large-scale warfare we had seen since the prequel movies. It spoke to our imagination so much more.
I had this set and i hated it, i still do. Its just the most ship ever and its so uninspiring. Its literally a big grey box
Also on top of that the clone wars movie was very badly received at the time and i only starting like the clone wars around the time season 3-4 were released. (To be fair english isnt my first language so i only new english when i was around 12-13 years old) Thats when i was old enough to really like the clone wars but i still hate this ship lol
I’ll never forget getting this set. I went to legoland with my family and they told me I could pick out one set and I choose this one. I was so excited that I built it on my bed! I woke up the next morning and found it smashed on the ground lmao
were you playing with it in your sleep or something?
Back in 2008 I didn’t like it simply because it wasn’t symmetrical, but now (especially with how prominent it became and Anakin’s blue paint job to match the 501st) I seriously wish I would have bought it! I would seriously love a remake!
It didn't have a blue paintjob?
@@dstil4 I think it was painted a dark blue where it was dark grey originally, I just looked it up and it seems to be that way…
@@jannerwingfeatherI just looked it up I’m not seeing a blue paint job
This set is criminally underrated. I got it for christmas in 2009 and built the whole thing in a day, i was only 8. It is a remarkably sturdy build and if you modify the interior you can fit many more minifigures.
It's so beautiful 😢
I have been watching your videos for 8 years
You’re right-it’s very prominent in early Clone Wars. Big but still kinda ugly.
Glad I wound up getting 3 on clearance! I still have 2 of them sealed somewhere. And I do love the glossy boxes.
Yeah man, I get that people think it’s a nice set but compared to almost anything else in- or out of universe it’s not close to a top tier ship
Would you sell a sealed one? I missed this one as a kid as well and have been wanting to pick one up.
David for real you play with my emotions and memories. I wasn‘t at the Toysrus event back in 2008 because I think they didn‘t lauched this event here in Germany as well but what I can clearly remember is buying the The Twilight and the Homing Spider Droid two days before the premier of the The Clone Wars Movie on August 14th watching the movie with my father in a small cinema. After the purchase of those two sets we drove back home to my grandparents I just grabed some fresh donuts and started building. Man thanks for this video! For real I watching you now since 2008 when the Lego TH-cam Community was very small and most videos had only 480p resolutions 😅. Keep going what you doing 💪🏼…
YES! Finally, someone else acknowledging this beauty! This was my very first lego set, and it's such an underrated set! Is it literally just a gray block with a wing and an engine? Yes. Does that stop it from being awesome? NO! It was the fourth episode in my series: LEGO of the WEEK, and it's probably my favorite episode and my favorite set in general. So happy it's getting the recognition it deserves.
Love this set, in my top list. I got it used 2 years ago for 100€. Bought so many pieces from bricklink to fill all the gaps a make some components with modern pieces. Such underrated set.
Its just super ugly.
I had this bad boy as a kid! I'm not sure why I bought this over the AT-TE lol. I feel like I was a weird kid...
I’m making up for 10 years of a Lego-less life by buying older sets not that I’m not a kid and have money lol
I bought it about 4 years go I still have the box lol I understand his excitement
It would be great for LEGO to re-make The Twilight because it’s a great set for Clone Wars fans, but for me the 2008 set just lacks on too many levels. I actually had the chance to buy it sealed not long ago for $180 and passed, simply because it isn’t one from the 2008 wave that screams out at me to must have.
Luckily for me, I have this set. Bought it a few years ago for double its price.
I remember discovering you as a kid, back around 2012. I was blown away that one person could have so many clone troopers! I loved watching all of your reviews and fondly remember waiting for each week of Building Kashyyyk.
You got me to start my channel to enter your EXO Suit giveaway, and inspired me to start uploading a few years later. Even got to meet you at the first Philly Brick Fest, I was over the moon.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane, this era of Lego Star Wars and Lego TH-cam was the absolute best. Looking forward to many more years of videos from you!
I remember him back in 2009 and when his balls dropped in like 2010-11 that was a huge shock to me lmao
We need a stream soon.
Well, I'm probably the rare one, but I did buy this set when it came out. I actually was in love with the twilight design. Granted it color leaves things to be desired, but the shape, OH THE SHAPE of the ship was so swooshable. Like you I was surprise by Lego choice to not use the empty space in the back. So I modified the set to have a med bay where you place the R2-D2 on the side, and removed the winch and cabinet, while making another winch setup in the area where the back hanger door is lock open (To match the show, Your thinking of the winch system is the Season 1 episode 2. When Anakin Rescues Plo Koon Escape Pod) Then modified the empty space into the back hanger bay interior we see in the show.
i watched legoboy a ton when I was 5-7 years old. thank you for everything ❤
Honestly forgot this existed now I have to go buy it! 😭 😂
I never got this set at release but my friend Billy bought it back on release. Years later when we got into highschool he was getting rid of some legos and this was one of the sets with figs he was going to sell. Sold it to me for only $50. 100% complete minus the box.
The only things really holding the set back is an interior (although I'm not sure how well you could access it with the construction of the roof), and some kind of locking mechanism for the lower wing when in attack position. It's not the most glamorous set, but what do you want for something being accurate to the source material? Despite its faults, it still has a number of pretty impressive features and building techniques that you wouldn't normally think about. Is it worth it on the aftermarket? Only for a collector. Back in the day? While a bit steep, still worth the price considering just how large some of those pieces actually are.
The Twilight really is only featured in the movie and Season 1 though. Had the T-6 Shuttle not been created for Season 2, the Twilight probably would have gotten more use past the first few episodes of Season 2. It really wasn't until Season 5 with Obi-wan's use of it that it was finally acknowledged again, and then promptly destroyed. To be honest, I didn't even really think about it being the Twilight until Obi-wan says that it's the last time he borrows a ship from Anakin, and there was actually a scene cut for time that involved Obi-Wan going to Anakin to get the Twilight, and Ahsoka questioning if that was a good idea because it wasn't in the best of shape. I think it would have been great to see it used a bit more prominently without T-6 or Eta-Class Shuttles being so heavily used in Seasons 2 and 3. The Twilight would have made a great ship to have be in Grievous Intrigue in Season 2, the Mortis Arc in Season 3 (They were meeting at a secret rendezvous point before getting sucked into Mortis), and the Deception Arc of Season 4 (Have Anakin and Ahsoka chase down our bounty hunters with something that doesn't scream Jedi). Even just simple one-time cameos would have made a difference, and that's not to slight the shuttles, but if Anakin is going on a mission, he's going to trust his ship that he's kitted out. Maybe he even prefers to do so because of the T-6 being too slow and why they got shot down over Felucia (It does technically take place earlier than a lot of Season 2 for whatever reason despite being the 17th episode). The other Jedi can fly the government issue ships, Anakin's definitely going to be using the one he's customized. Not to mention there are covert missions that Anakin would be going on, just like why Obi-Wan needed it, but we just never saw them. And the whole point of giving Anakin the Twilight to begin with was so that it wouldn't be a total lie that Luke's father used to fly a Spice Freighter for a living. While still technically true, let's get a bit more mileage out of it, or at least show Anakin struggle with the government issued ships and being a Jedi with attachments with something as simple as a ship of all things. Show that the Jedi really don't like Anakin having this ship, do something, don't just not use it for no reason because there were new toys to play with. Okay, rant about the Twilight over.
0:47 GOATED Alpha Rex in the Backround.
Goated clone wars Rex in the Foreground.

limited edition was something we saw a lot with bionicle. Pretty much every wave beyond like 2004 or 2005 had a limited edition set for either toys r us or walmart. One of those sealed walmart sets goes for like $600 now
You earned a sub by your appreciative review of this set. This ship is iconic to me and really brings me back to watching the clone wars with my 7 year old son just around the start of the pandemic. While the build of this specific set isn’t very desirable, I’m still closet wishing that either Lego or a reasonable play-scale MOC revamp of this will one day surface. Fingers crossed. Thank you for reviewing and going down memory lane for us. ❤
This would honestly be a neat remake if they scaled it down and included early show variants of some clone wars characters
Great channel. No BS and a passion for the hobby. Please keep the content coming.
nostalgia trip. Honestly, one of or if not thee best Star Wars wave to come out
Besides the AT-TE, I know it will never happen but if they remade the entirety of this wave with modern techniques and updated printing on the figures that would be absolutely amazing.
My man completely blew me back to 2008...Legoboy....
I can't...I can't....I'm crying
Guy starts a Lego you tube channel
It's a success...
Guy gets a girlfriend with you tube channel
It's a success.....
Guy gets GF to watch clone wars series
It's a success.........
Not all heros wear capes
But you sir are living g the dream
Hahahaha maddest respects 😆👊💥
Fun fact: On the box they place R2D2 head backwards in the photo
Mhm, you might notice my fun easter egg on the last part of the video haha
Am I misremembering, or could you park the 2008 Anakin's Starfigter in the bay at the back?
It's crazy to think you have been on TH-cam for 15 years.....I've watched you since that first AT-TE review back in 2008. You are my longest tenured TH-camr. Thanks for the decade and a half of great content
Nostalgia man. I still have my sets from 13 years ago all dusty now but started cleaning em. And this video popped up and I somehow ended up at target and purchased 10 packs of the 501st and 332nd 😂
In order for you to reach a million, you're probably going to need Star Wars content to be good. Disney has been pumping out a lot of content, which can cause burnout, and the fact that most of the content has been "meh" exacerbates the burnout. From what I can tell, the young kids now, which are soon going to enter in to your viewership's demographic range, don't think much of Star Wars
It's actually surprising that Star Wars has gotten to this point. There are actually people not hyped for Ahsoka, and the Ahsoka trailers look pretty damn good.
Anyway, when your content is tied to a brand or a franchise, you need the brand/franchise to thrive. There are Star Wars channels that have blown up since the conclusion of the sequels, but those are channels with a low ceiling because their focus is venting about the franchise's "downfall." Anger can be great for viewership in the short term.
It looks like a giant B-Wing, also you should have said Astroka for the old times sake. =) Not sure about that derpy faced Anakin.
Also what was your very first lego set before TH-cam ?
I’m one of the rare ones also! I got this set as a birthday gift when I was younger. Totally underrated imho, I thought this set was awesome! I still got all original pieces, figures, box, and instructions. I actually just recently rebuilt it too from out of my storage :)
I still remember my grandpa got me the twight for my birthday. It was misisng pieces but just recently i went to bricklink and managed to finish it!
Twilight! I just recently got this myself, its very underrated imo
Hey man I love your videos you inspire me to make mocs
Enjoyed seeing an old set I got for Christmas being given some love. Twighlight was such an underrated ship honestly. Would love to see a more modern version of this.
Unlike everyone, i've always liked and wanted the twilight, but i never had the occasion to buy one. Sometimes i just wish that lego remade the sets that is no longer available. (I'm not talking about making a new version of it, but just remade the exact same set.) I totaly don't care about if that means that old set value will go down, for me this is a good thing, because i don't like to see some of them having exagerate price just because of some rare minifigure or pieces, because when i buy a set for my collection, i don't care about if it's going to become expensive in the future, or if a set i already own is, i'm not going to sell it, so what's the matter of the price in this case ? It would be just amazing for collectors, but a nightmare for sellers, so i understand if there is people that is not okay with me, this is just my opignon.
I really hope that we get a rebuplic Y-wing, been wanting one since i saw the original back as a kid and i am just sitting here waiting patiently for a new one
OH MAN! I remember July 26th 2008 SO well! It was like christmas in the middle of summer for 13 year old me. I remember picking up the Homing Spider Droid with Phase 1 Commander Fox that night. Later that summer, I also got myself the Magnaguard Starfighter and the Gunship. And I remember getting the Twilight for christmas that year. It's an odd set, but I honestly kind of liked it... until I tore it apart for parts, of course. Good times! 😅
I bought it 🙋🏼♂️ one of the coolest looking ships to 7 year old me
Wow! I missed out on this one! Such a sleeper set to be honest! I might have to pick one up if they have one at Brickfair this year!
Would a 2009 Y Wing be a better purchase or the twilight? Let me know below 👇
this ship needs more mocs. imagine a minifig scale with a minifig scale Delta7B in the hanger
His face as he feels “the glossy box art”…
He’s so excited 😂😂
Got this for Christmas when I was five. One of my all time favorites
Today I found out that people actually hated the Twilight. I always found it to be a cool unique ship personally.
I never wanted this set as a kid because I always thought the twilight looked stupid. The same applied to many clone wars sets. Haha.
I came here for the review, but stayed for the channel lore.
Man that intro got me in my feels…so nostalgic
Where did you buy it and what is his name??
I hope The Twilight gets an upgrade
Are you doing a review on the ghost?
I had a dream last night that Lego released a new version of the Twilight. This is surreal to be seeing this pop up on my feed immediately after that.
Woah
Man knew a guy who had it lol i kinda want it now
Wow I was not prepared for the nostalgia..... Wish we could go back to the more simple times man. The community was so great
THIS IS THE CONTENT WE WANT DAVID
hi
I’ve gotten out of Lego recently but your videos are always so well shot, edited, etc. that I have to tune in. Great work bro
Means the world, thank you ❤
Got my hands on it 2 yrs ago. Used but with box. It is one of my favourit star wars sets. It is an ugly set, but so is the ship in universe. Only problem is the lousy minifigs, but as a whole I love it. And with loust I mean they arent worth that much. 10 dollars a fig max. Have to check my personal database, but when I included these I was quite dissapointed.
For that time, at least Rota is cool.
@@BossBast1 yeah trye, but he was also in the at-te
Happy 15th Anniversary to your channel! It’s too bad I deleted my old channels a while back and this is my current (and temporary) main channel. But throughout my time, really loved your videos and this review! So proud of what you have accomplished!
Please keep reviewing older lego sets whenever you can
I just got the Headhunter Umbara set mint condition with Pong Krell for only $120, I'm considering building it cuz it looks too cool
I think for the most part everyone agrees the faces on this era of lego star wars minifigures looked a little scary lol, there is a charm to them though. It's very exclusive to this time period and anytime I see one of the minifigures a wave of nostalgia starts rushing in.
I Found most of the pieces for it in bulk Lego (partly assembled), have been working on completing it for 2 years now, with only 3 pieces missing, which I will be buying in my next BL order.
Even though it is just a "big gray box", it is such an underrated set!
Can't really tell why, it's just nice for some reason, and brings a lot of CW-realted memories every time I look at it.
This youtuer is the best
This set is sooo underrated
This is surprising
First
I like this set too .
Cool
first to like 😱
I luckily got this set when it was released all those years ago and it’s still one of my all time favorites sets in my collection, it’s just so nostalgic to me after watching the Clone Wars movie and show.
I noticed BUBBLES in those clear light-sabers
I've recently had BUBBLES in my CLEAR stuff
makes you wonder what else has BUBBLES...🤔
NOT something I expect for what Lego charges for their stuff
Enjoy The Collapse 🤪
The Fall Of The Empire
😠😡🤬💥💀
Been here since Legoboy12345678 days, albeit I think on another TH-cam channel, definitely been a while since then.
Wait you’re legoboy12345678? I watched all the time back in the day I had no idea
The first video I saw of yours was the venator review when you were legoboy12345678 when I was 10
I'm not a fan of the clone wars, I do love weird asymmetrical ships though, and the clone wars era of lego had a lot o unique ships instead of just the same sets slightly different being re-released every 5 years.
Solid Brix studios: finally after 15 years I finally got Lego Star Wars: The Clone Wars The Twilight set.
Me: I’ve had this set since 2008 and I will cherish it forever. Even if it is at present Frankenstein’d back together.
0:23 bro those boxes gave me nostalgia haha, I remember them clear as day. I was there on the opening weekend of the animated clone wars movie in cinemas. Cant believe that was in 2008, 16 years ago.
Nostalgia🤩
Dang, these were the glory days of Star Wars Legos! I always wanted the 2008 AT-TE with Captain Rex. Sadly, I never got it. Now it is to expensive to buy. It make me so mad/sad!
I always liked The Twilight. It's a cool unique mini freighter.
me and my friends like to call the Twilight "Anakin's Shitbox"
I really loved the shipman the show and as a Lego set. I think I bought it in 2015/16. it was really nice to build it Blutbild didn’t liked that it don’t had a floor on the inside so I added one
An AWESOME & NOSTALGIC SET INDEED, David Hall from Solid Brix Studios! ;) :) 😮❤🎉😂😅😊
Bro the NOSTALGIA of this set, definitely takes me back.
It's one of only two Lego sets I own that actually hate. I really dislikesd the look of the ship in the show, and the Lego one doesn't improve the looks. The build is pretty good, but the ship itself looks so awful. BTW the only other Lego SW set I really dislike is Finn and Rose's Resistance Transport Pod - 75176 and it's not because of Finn or Rose, as I like their characters and figs. The ship and build is just meh. So yeah, no love for the Twilight, but as a collector I had to get it.
What dollar figs?!? Shit I’m watching this 6 days after, good reminder for those who aren’t subscribed 😅
Maybe I sould capitalise on those Anakin figures becoming more valuable since I have 4 atm.
I actually really like this one, never had it myself, but would love a re-make of it, tho it will probably never happen. But, you never know? Maybe a 20 years anniversary of Clone Wars??
I like the set because of nostalgia. I actually bought a Lego bin and found the entire set (and lodes more Clone Wars set), sadly I didn’t get the minifigures (I got them from earlier so that essentially a big problem). But I got the bin really cheap, like 70$ or something like that. I rly enjoyed finding it.
A lot of money, but as long as it makes you happy! My wife just spent $700USD on a Monster High doll and then fessed up to me afterwards because she was worried I'd be pissed - I honestly didn't care because I totally get it as a Lego collector - also now gives me an excuse to do the same thing on Lego 😀
Never really liked the Twilight in universe, so I never liked the lego rendition. BUT if the lego version was big enough to stuff Anakin's starfighter in the back of, I woulda considered getting one. Cause I thought that was kinda cool.
I always wanted but never could afford it on release (y’know, being an 11 year old), but I built my own which was my very first attempt at a MOC
I’m just about to pick up a Freeci speeder (spelling?) so was watching some reviews and stumbled across yours from many many moons ago. I was about to sign off once I watched but instead wanted to find out if you were still doing this. Channel has seen a ton of growth man and the videos look great. Some great new content for me to binge watch. Thank you. Consider me subscribed!!
