What We Think

Ease of assembly:
Educational factor:
Novelty factor:

The Good: Clone Wars' themed set with plenty of details and hidden features.

The Challenging: The ship is heavy and delicate, so it may be difficult for smaller kids to maneuver.

In a Nutshell: Action-packed building set jump starts imaginative play.


The Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser is equipped with a hidden cannon under the wings. View larger.


Chancellor Palpatine and his elite Senate bodyguards are hidden behind a front panel. View larger.

Rule the Galaxy with the Ultimate Republic Starship
As seen in the film Star Wars: The Clone Wars -- in which the heroic Jedi Knights try to restore peace to the Galaxy as more and more members of the Republic fall under the influence of the Dark Side -- the Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser provides an action-packed narrative setting to inspire imaginative play.

Every detail of the Republic flagship is packed into this 20-inch-long model, which includes a front panel that opens to reveal Palpatine's quarters, a hidden cannon under the wings, a drop-bomb launcher, an escape pod, and more. The Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser comes complete with five mini figures: Chancellor Palpatine, two of his elite Senate bodyguards, one Clone Trooper pilot, and one Clone Trooper gunner.

Building the Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser
With 1,170 pieces and two colorful instruction booklets, the Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser took our two adult testers approximately three-and-a-half hours to construct. The majority of the pieces come in shades of gray, so approaching construction requires a bit or organization and discipline. But once building is started, detailed step-by-step illustrations make assembly straightforward.

Overall, this set scores an excellent rating for its clever design elements. Just when you think you've discovered all the hidden weapons and command posts, you stumble across another. Our favorite features are the Palpatine mini figure -- complete with cloth cape and wrinkled brow -- the sliding gunner, the hidden Clone Trooper cockpit, the escape pod, the bomb dropper, and the Chancellor's enormous command center.

Finally, most of all, our testers enjoyed the way the narrative of this set allowed them to reenact the ship-to-ship combat seen in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. They also appreciated that the storyline is simple enough to make the set entertaining, whether or not your child has seen the film.

What's in the Box
1,170 LEGO pieces and two instruction booklets.

5 out of 5 stars Just what my son wanted!   March 15, 2010
4thright
This is the most expensive Lego kit my son has asked for. He wanted it to the exclusion of anything else for his 10th birthday. He got it, is still working on it, and we're both happy. Anything that takes his eyeballs off "screens."


4 out of 5 stars Challenging Lego   February 12, 2010
ED78 (Fayetteville, GA United States)
My 11 year old loved this ship. It was challenging enough to make him think, but it wasn't so difficult he could finish it on his own.
I think it was too expensive, but I think Lego knows they've got a product that endures and they make us pay BIG for it!



4 out of 5 stars Lego Star Ventor (8039)   February 10, 2010
Mira (Croatia)
It is good and educational, the only thing is it is finished quickly and the joy is over. There should be a possibility to change it, upgrade it, reconstruct it with some additional partss.


5 out of 5 stars One of my son's favorite birthday presents   February 1, 2010
D. Dale (Greeley, CO United States)
My son asked for this weeks before his 11th birthday and was really excited to get it. He and his brothers spend a lot of time building and playing with it and then later he tore it down and built it all again.


4 out of 5 stars Good for boys!   January 30, 2010
Adventure Mom (San Diego)
My son is 10 years old, really enjoying building the set. It is less challenging than I thought, but a good hand-on exercise. Some structure is not sturdy enough. Overall, my son is happy with the set.
