I Rebuilt & Upgraded This ICONIC SET From 2009! (Rho-Class Shuttle MOC)

With the release of Bad Batch Season 3 I see no better time to revisit the Republic Attack Shuttle and give it a complete rework & upgrade!

PDF Building Instructions & Parts List for this Republic Shuttle available on my Patreon Page right now!

I have some sets just for their parts, and the ones I used most on this were 2x Hoth AT-ST, 4x Dark Trooper Attack, 2x 501st Battle Pack & a bunch of extra pieces in my collection I had on hand.

This shuttle to me is the peak of lego engineering, i generally love how the back area reminds me heavily of Palpatine's shuttle minus the vader transformation area, great work mate

[a-dog]

This is genuinely the best build you’ve ever done

[KURA]

0:39 They double as the pilots 😂
1:46 They really double as the pilots 😂

I would extend those wings a bit, they just seem a bit too small. Also I’d make the big 3 blocks on the side bigger so they actually fill out the ships sides

Was about to leave a comment about this being a nu class and not a rho class until I got to that segment of the video lol. This is such an improvement over the original set though, great mod

[nd]

I am beyond amazed! This is absolutely amazing! You have out done yourself, INCREDIBLE!

[CBrixStudios]

YOOOO! This is lit man! The moc looks amazing! I’m glad I’m not the only one who agrees that we need a new one.

[Regeor]

This is great! I wonder if you could build the undercarriage box that they have on these shuttles in The Bad Batch.

[ConvorOne]

Looks great, just a quick note: This is the NU-class shuttle and not the RHO-class, the RHO-class has a dorsal fin more akin to the later Lambda & Sentinel class shuttles.

[leytonshurtleff]

That interior is insane, way better than the original! Awesome job my friend🔥🔥

[therailfanman]

IMO the only thing i would add is tiles or something to make the top of the small fin look less out of place

[sebastianxftw]

I wish the Havoc Marauder set was made in this old scale

[octa]

This shuttle is such a good build.Can you make a video on how to build it cuz I got some lego pieces that are from a lot of different lego sets that could help me make one just like this one

[bertmert]

Never owned this set but dang it’s cool

[mikoajwandas]

Its more of a NU class shuttle, RHO has that third wing, longer body and can hold cargo under its belly, witout that its more of a NU class shuttle, but still a great build love to see that shuttle refreshed

[ThomasContu-mqmf]

Could you make an alternative build to both the old 501st battle pack and the 332 one?

[haxens]

Love the build man, Saving up for your patreon. Is the instructions still avalible on you patreon?

[kiryowtk]

Great improvement to the original but I feel like you could also improve the top a bit, maybe add detail on the side, an antenna like we see in the show etc

[EternalDawn]

How much of the parts list and/or work would be removed if you already own one of the Lego set attack shuttles to rebuild into this instead of raw purchasing all pieces?

[sinisterisrandom]

There are apparently models of the Rho class without the top fin. However, I'd assume it was more for identification reasons. Since the Rho and Nu are essentially near identical so without the fun it would be difficult to figure which one is which which could lead to fights that are disasterious for either side if there here senators of either side on it.
