7261 Clone Turbo Tank is a Revenge of the Sith set released in 2005. It includes Star Corps Trooper, Mace Windu, Clone Trooper, Clone Aerial Trooper, Clone Scout Trooper, and two Battle Droid minifigures. In addition to that, it contains a BARC speeder, a generic stationary turret and an E-Web style turret that could be used by droid minifigures.

Description

7261 Clone Turbo Tank has many features including two cockpits on each end which can be opened to seat minifigures at the controls, opening side doors with an interior to hold minifigures or the blaster cannon also included in the set, one side door on each side which can be opened to reveal the engine compartment, posable weapons on the top of the Turbo Tank and then finally a spotter that can be raised and lowered which a minifigure can rest on.

Background

Clone Turbo Tank is the nickname given to the HAV/w A6 Juggernaut and was a tumbling war machine. The LEGO tank came with seating for one pilot in the front cockpit and two at the rear, although in the Star Wars Universe, the tank had 12 pilots. The tank had a spotter that kept a lookout from the top of the tank, but the spotter was vulnerable as he was exposed to gunfire. It took part in the Battle of Kashyyyk and The First Battle of Felucia, along with many other battles under the Republic and numerous smaller battles under the Galactic Empire. There is controversy about which side of the tank is the front. It is believed the front is the bigger side, but many think it can go either way.

Notes

-This set has two version's. The first version was released in 2005, and featured a Light-up Lightsaber Mace Windu. This enabled you to press the top of the Mini-figure's Head and the Lightsaber would light-up. You couldn't however take the Mini-figure apart, except for the Purple Lightsaber Blade. This set was then released in the later part of 2005 around Summer. It featured a Normal Mace Windu, which you could take apart and move around.

-The set with the Normal Mace Windu also came with an extra Episode III Clone Trooper.

-The set with the Normal Mace Windu also had some readvised techniques throughout the build of the set. Some Technic Pins were made longer for a more sturdy and stronger build. It doesn't effect the appearance so both version's of the Clone Turbo Tank look exactly the same, apart from when you build each set you will notice the difference with some of the Technic Pins, a very minor change.

-The later released version came with a New Instruction Booklet which is alot smaller than the Originals.
