75017 Duel on Geonosis is a Star Wars set released in 2013. It features the Lightsaber Duel between Count Dooku and Master Yoda in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.
Description[edit | edit source]
The set is base on Count Dooku’s secret hanger on Geonosis. The set comes with 4 new minifigures and 3 exclusive Minifigures (FA-4 will also be released in 75023 Star Wars Advent Calendar).
The set features several arches that represents the Geonosian architecture seen within Dooku’s hanger. Connected to the arches is a large archway with a landing pad for Count Dooku’s Speeder Bike. Attached to the top of the archway is a light fitting. Next to the entrance is a hidden storage compartment for Dooku’s Force Lightning.
One of the play features is a column with a lever that can cause it to topple over. This is to re-enact a scene in the movie where Count Dooku causes a column to fall over with the force.
Attached to Yoda’s back is a bracket that is attached to a pole so that he can be moved about to re-enact the flips he does in the movie. In Poggle the Lesser’s hand is a LEGO brick that represents the Death Star plans he later gives to Count Dooku. FA-4 acts as the pilot of Count Dooku's Solar Sailer despite it not being included in the set.
Background[edit | edit source]
After Count Dooku is given the Death Star plans by Poggle the Lesser he escapes from the Geonosian Arena on his speeder bike. Followed by Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi who are in a Republic Gunship, Dooku arrives at his secret hanger bay. After a small fight with the two Jedi, Dooku amputates Anakin’s right arm and badly injures Obi-Wan. Yoda soon arrives and after a duel with him, Dooku uses the force to knock down a large pillar on top of Anakin and Obi-Wan. While Yoda uses the force to stop the pillar from crushing the two Jedi, Dooku escapes on board his Solar Sailer piloted by a FA-4 droid. Padmé Amidala arrives soon after with a group of Clone Troopers just as Dooku leaves.
