How To Build a LEGO Star Wars Clone Army (For Dummies & Broke Bros)

Ойын-сауық

We started with 1 501st Battle Pack and now we're here.
Here's a step by step guide to army building for fellow beginners and broke collectors who don't want to spend $1000s on plastic troopers.

    On a real note, a good tip I have for everyone buying mass amounts of battlepack-like sets is to keep the extra parts and reach out to Bricklink stores to sell. Unless you want to keep all the pieces, you can offer bricklinkers the pieces of the set at a cost and then recoup some initial investment - or use that money to buy more.

    The 501st legion of clone troopers evolves into the 501st legion of Imperial Stormtroopers aka “Vader’s Fist”. They are Darth Vader’s personal legion and whilst Clone numbers in the unit eventually got superseded by regular stormtrooper recruits there were Clones serving in the unit right up until the Battle of Hoth where the Vader’s Fist legion commanded by General Veers loaded into the ATATs on Hoth to invade the Rebel base there. This is why they are so revered. And if you wanna add more to your 501st Minifigure legion, next month the Lego Star Wars Magazine includes a matching 501st trooper in it. Note, I have one UCS ATAT filled up with a full compliment of Snowtrooper minifigures collected from the January edition of the Lego Star Wars Magazine and a couple of the battle packs (needed the speeders obvs) But I have another UCS ATAT manned entirely by 501st legion clone troopers.

    It's okay, Holly. You don't have to watch a single episode of TCW to be a fan of Star Wars, or clone army building. In fact, it's healthier not to. I got a few of those 20th anniversary Imp dropships to army build the stormtroopers, but those will be hard to find now. If you want to get a small fleet of Tie fighters, there you go.

    There's actually an issue i want to address. Being a young lego fan makes this harder. Not having an actual job to earn money for army building is tough. Constantly relying on your parents to reward you. In the past, i made the mistake of trying to build a droid army. The limbs broke overtime. Didn't mess with them or anything. Could have disassembled them but i was only 4 at the time. Didn't know any better :(

    I mean of course army building for really any lego theme that has armies in it is crucial and it's quite a daunting and ridiculous task to get even 20 let alone 30 or 50 or hundreds of a mass soldier for any army but when it's done and done it's definitely rewarding.
