The clone trooper looks like the sides of its face have been squeezed in. Weird graphic.
I loved Brickmaster!
Yep this was a great little polybag from the Brickmaster subscription. The watchtower could technically raise and lower, too thanks to technic plates inside allowing the antenna to be hidden down inside.
If only I had been a member just a bit longer, I'd have gotten the last Star Wars one before the program ended, which was the Bounty Hunter ship from Season 2 of Clone Wars, and my collection would have been complete.
Of course I ripped up all the Star Wars Brickmaster sets. Kind of want to put them all back together though, and I still need to get that Bounty Hunter ship.
What a cute little set. Good for pieces too.
Thought Brickmaster was the bomb. Just couldn’t justify the cost. I parted out the sets I really wanted from BrickLink and got my own. Good memories....
I love all the relatively basic parts this set is made out of!
So this is the UCS Clone Turbo Tank, no wonder I've never heard anyone talk about it)
Wow, a rare polybag that I actually own! I miss BrickMaster...

If you had not seen the original and they placed in the center of the picture you would not know which direction this vehicle is supposed to drive? I didn't realize there had been 3 versions of the full size model, where they just seemed to change the design of the wheels each time. I found these smaller sets helped kids get into Lego who had lost interest in a pile of creator bricks, without being too difficult or too long for them to build.

That’s probably because it’s Clone Wars stylized. The troopers’ helmets always looked off to me in that show.
Have you seen the price of this set on Bricklink? About 50 of your Earth pounds. With only 64 pieces in the set that works out at almost one pound per piece. You're 'aving a larf, intcha?
