This is a review of the Lego Star Wars MTT -Lego Star Wars 7662

The Lego Star Wars MTT is a Multi-Troop Transport used by the Trade Federation to transport it’s droid troops right into the heat of battle. When it shows up to a fight it’s time for the enemy to start running. With 16 battle ready droids, two security droids, two pilot droids, and a destroyer droid, this droid carrier is a force to be reckoned with.

Containing over 1,300 pieces and weighing in at 4.9 pounds this is one of the sturdiest sets that Lego Star Wars has produced. Though complex and time consuming to build in the end you will be rewarded with an incredible piece of droid technology that is as impressive for display as it is for play. Produced in 2007 the Lego Star Wars MTT set is now a very rare collectors item, ranking up there with the sets like the Imperial Star Destroyer 6211 and the Death Star 10188

What is It?

The Lego Star Wars MTT 7662, produced in 2007, is one of the sturdiest and best built Star Wars Lego sets to date. It is also one of the most sought after sets for collectors as well as for Star Wars and Lego fans. With numerous doors, flaps, and panels the MTT has lots of surprises in store. The back flap can open up to reveal a troop carrier and you can look inside the side panels by turning a gear.

  • 16 regular battle droids, 2 red security battle droids, 2 blue pilot battle droids and a destroyer droid
  • Carrier vehicle stores in the back, and top opens to reveal pilot cabin and steering controls
  • Contains 1,326 Pieces

Needless to say the Lego Star Wars MTT is one of the most feature packed sets that Lego Star Wars has released to date

What I Like

This set is a truly impressive piece of Lego craftsmanship. It looks fantastic and all the different moving parts function perfectly (for the most part, this is still Lego!). Many of today’s Lego sets are fairly “weak” and tend to break quite easily. The MTT is built just like it’s on-screen counterpart, tough. That’s not to say you should throw it against the wall but it will survive you picking it up which is more than I can say for some of my recent builds. This set also comes with an impressive number of droids, 20 plus a Droideka, so if you’re looking to bolster the numbers of your droid army then The Lego Star Wars MTT is a perfect set for you.

 

What I Didn’t Like

Although I didn’t experience it there have been reports of pieces of Lego missing from the MTT box, luckily this can be easily overcome by contacting the Lego Missing lego star wars mtt, lego star wars mtt 7662Pieces Department (they should have a TV show) at Lego Customer Support. The front laser cannons also tend to wiggle loose every now and then.

Unfortunately, because this is now a fairly rare collectors item the price reflects this so if you aren’t a serious Lego and Star Wars fan then the MTT might not be for you.

 

Overall Thoughts

The Lego Star Wars MTT 7662 is one of my favorite sets and it sits proudly with nest to Imperial Star Destroyer 6211 and Death Star 10188. It’s a complex project for a confident Lego builder. If you are a fan of well built Lego sets and you love Star Wars then I highly recommend the Lego Star Wars 7662 – MTT. If you’re a beginner builder than I recommend that you start with something smaller like Emperor Palpatine’s Shuttle 8096

As a discontinued set the price is only going to keep rising as sets disappear so if you’re interested in purchasing this set be sure to act fast.

Lego Star Wars MTT For Sale

Lego Star Wars MTT | Lego Star Wars MTT For Sale

The Lego Star Wars MTT 7662 and the Lego Star Wars MTT 7184 are both very rare discontinued sets which means that it can be very difficult to find a set to purchase. Two of the best places to find Lego Star Wars MTT’s and other rare sets for sale is on eBay.com and on amazon.com

With eBay you will need to bid on an auction but with amazon.com you can buy it and have it shipped to you right away. If you buy from eBay you might be able to get it at a lower price but if you go with amazon you know you are purchasing it from a reputable company and thus you are less likely to be scammed.

If you’d rather purchase the set locally then I’d suggest looking on your local Craigslist or Kijiji site and posting a wanted ad.

I personally like to buy all of my Lego products from amazon.com if I can’t find them for sale locally.

Lego Star Wars MTT 7184 Review – What You Need To Know

Lego Star Wars MTT 7184 Review – What You Need To Knowlego star wars mtt

This is a review of theLego Star Wars MTT -Lego Star Wars 7184

The Lego Star Wars MTT 7184 is the original Lego Star Wars Multi-Troop Transport based on the trade Federation Droid transport ship seen in Star Wars Episode I: A Phantom Menace. Originally released in 2000 the MTT 7184 consists of 446 Lego pieces and 7 droid minifigures. This Lego Star Wars set is now a rare collectors set and is sold for around 5 times it’s originally MSRP.

What is It?

The 7184 is the original Lego version of the Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace droid transport ship used by the Trade Federation during the ground battle of Naboo between the forces of the Trade federation and those of the native Gungans.

Consisting of 446 Lego pieces and 7 battle-droid minifigures the MTT 7184 is a high-quality Lego set that was received exceptionally well by fans and critics alike. The Lego Star Wars MTT 7184 is a fantastic addition to any Lego Star Wars collection.

What I Like

The Lego Star Wars MTT 7184 is a classically designed Lego set and is defined by it’s sharp edges and classic brick design. Many of the newer Lego sets have bricks built specifically for them and to me that diminishes their charm and appeal to the point where they look more like standard toys rather than Legos. The 7184 set comes with 7 battle-droid minifigures and their assorted weapons and accessories which was a welcome reinforcement to my Lego droid “army”.

What I Didn’t Like

The  MTT 7184 is unfortunately fairly fragile and as such isn’t the greatest set if you’re interested in using it for playing with. As a collectors set it is also fairly pricy and sells on average for $250 compared to it’s at-launch sale price of $50.

Overall Thoughts

The Lego Star Wars 7184 is a fantastic collectors set and I’m extremely happy that I bit the bullet and bought it off of amazon.com. It looks great beside my Lego Star Wars MTT 7662 and I love comparing the two with my other Lego Star Wars fanatic friends.

As a discontinued set the price of the 7184 is only going to keep rising as sets disappear so if you’re interested in purchasing this set be sure to act fast.

Lego Star Wars MTT Review

The Lego Star Wars MTT is a massive Lego set with over 1,300 individual pieces. Building this Trade Federation Transport can a frustrating and difficult task but if you follow our tried-and-true building tips your Lego Star Wars 7662 construction experience will be much more fun.

These tips can be applied to any Lego building project. These simple tips are guaranteed to make building your Lego sets an enjoyable activity rather than a head-ache inducing nightmare.

Building Tips – What You Need To Know

Building Tip #1 – Designate A  Building Space

Building a set like the Lego Star Wars MTT can take quite a bit of time and because of that it’s important to find a space that you can dedicate to just using for building your Lego Star Wars 7662. I like to use a desk or table for my Lego projects, when I was younger I used the floor but I found that I lost far too many pieces that way so I made the move to using tables.

Having a dedicated space for your MTT project will ensure that you won’t lose any pieces while carrying your set from location to location.

Building Tip #2 – Prepare Your Building Space

Now that you’ve picked your building area it’s important that you get it ready before building your Star Wars MTT. This includes clearing away any non-Lego items, wiping down your table, and vacuuming the floor around where you’ll be building.  Wiping down the table ensures that your bricks won’t get sticky from old spills, and once you’ve dropped your first piece you’ll understand why vacuuming is such a good idea.

Building Tip #3 – Take It Slow

Before you rip open the box and start your build remember to take it slow. Don’t rush through your build, enjoy it. I always build the best and enjoy myself the most when I pace myself and don’t race through a building project. By going slow and steady you will build a much better MTT.

Building Tip #4 – Read The Instructions

This is one of the most critical tips. Make sure you read the instructions, don’t just assume that something is built a certain way. If you don’t read the instructions there is a good chance that your MTT build will end in failure.

Now I’m not saying don’t experiment when you’re building! In fact I highly encourage trying new things when you’re building with Lego, but by reading the instructions you can understand what effect any changes you make will have on your Lego Star Wars MTT.

Building Tip #5 – Sort Those Bricks!

When I finally started sorting my Lego bricks my builds became much more fun. It became easier to find the bricks I wanted because I no longer had to look through different pouches or hunt through my Lego box to find what I wanted, I just had to look through a small collection of similar pieces and voila!

You can sort by color, size, type, or however you want. All that matters is that you understand your sorting system so that you can find what you need easier. I personally sort by color as I find it’s the easiest way for me. Doing this made building the MTT a stress-free experience.

Building Tip #6 – Have Fun!

This is by far the most important tip I can give you. Make sure that you are enjoying what you’re doing, if you aren’t having fun then take a break and come back to it later. Don’t like building from a book? Then come up with your own creations! Not enjoying your current project? Take it apart and make something new! Remember, building your MTT is supposed to be fun!

 

That’s it for our Lego Star Wars MTT Building Tips!

My Recommendations

If you’re looking for a high-quality Lego Star Wars set than I highly recommend the Lego Star Wars MTT – Lego Star Wars 7662. At $699.99 this set is quite expensive, but since it is a discontinued Lego Star Wars set the price will likely just keep rising. The set was extremely well designed and is a pleasure to build and play with as well as to display.

If you want a collectors for a little less money than you should definitely take a look at the MTT 7184. The old-school design is a must-have for collectors and just like the Lego Star Wars 7662, this is a discontinued set and will likely continue to get more expensive.

And finally if you’re looking for a smaller version of the MTT than the MTT Mini 4491 is the perfect set for you.
