LEGO 75283 Star Wars TM Armoured Assault Tank (AAT)

Product Information

Also, the 2020 AAT has incorporated the newer spring shooter piece which was not in existence when the old AAT was produced back in 2009.

On the one hand, the spaceship forms the stage for the minifigures, and on the other, of course, the set's construction object. Comparing the new tank to the old model from 2009 (8018 Armored Assault Tank) it's clear you got more bang for your buck with old version. The reason why the model lacks volume and by extension thus can never be even close to an accurate representation of the real thing quickly becomes apparent when you swivel around it and view it from different angles.

It’s all good stuff to have around just in case you may need it one day and you can’t go wrong with it. The AAT is a tank used by the Separatist forces and their battle droid army in their neverending war against the Republic. Two were during that weird Clone Wars phase when all the characters had dopey looking, oversized eyes.

The turret swings left to right, the main gun can be tilted and the side guns can be twisted up and down. His helmet is sleek, and he certainly looks ready to take on the clankers (or an unsuspecting Jedi)!The turret rotates 360 degrees, and the base is heavy enough for the long turret gun not to tip the tank over. While I feel that it looks better in the tan used in the first version of the set, it works well in dark blue, and will fit in with many other previously-released droid army vehicles. There are 289 pieces inside the box, as well as 1 Ahsoka Tano figure, 1 Clone Trooper figure and 2 Battle Droids.
