7749 Echo Base is a Star Wars 10th Anniversary Line set released in 2009. It includes Han Solo, Rebel Trooper (Hoth) (two), and Snowtrooper (two) minifigures and a Tauntaun.

Description

This set features a battery turret and a snowbunker. The turret has two missiles which can be fired at the same time by pushing a mechanism at the back of the turret. Two minifigures are capable of fitting inside the gun turret, one in the base, and one in the top. The turret also features a hatch which can be opened to seat a minifigure, or the hatch can be closed. The snowbunker fits two minifigures which can stand on a flip back mechanism which flips the minifigures backwards like they have been blown up or hit by enemy fire.

The set.

The set also contains a box, where Han's electro-binoculars can be put. A cord leads from the snowbunker to the gun turret. One Snowtrooper is equipped with an E-web blaster whilst the other is equipped with a Blaster Pistol. The Rebel Troopers included feature the new goggles which are more accurate than the previous design seen in 7666 Hoth Rebel Base.

Background

In Episode V The Empire Strikes Back the secret Rebel Base is on Hoth. AT-ATs and AT-STs attack the secret Rebel Base destroying their shield generator and attempting to destroy the Rebel Transports.

Notes

  • On the Lego.com website, on the set's homepage, two 8014 Clone Walker Battle Pack sets can be seen in the background. It is unknown why they are there.
  • This set also appeared in the mini-movie The Quest for R2-D2, but it was used by Clone Troopers.
