30059 MTT

Your first reaction when seeing this mini set was probably the same as mine: a colorful MTT The Clone Wars and also disproportionate, it's a bit of rubbish ...

And I must say that this reaction is normal. For all of us the MTT (Multi-Troop Transport) is the one seen in theEpisode I: The Phantom Menace, with its brown armor and elongated shape. LEGO has also released several versions with the set 7184 Trade Federation MTT in 2000, the mini set 4491 MTT in 2003 and the famous set 7662 Trade Federation MTT from 2007, which remains one of my favorite Star Wars sets especially for its color Reddish brown...

But that's without counting on the MTT seen in the animated series The Clone Wars and in particular episode 21 of season 1 entitled Liberty of Ryloth and during which Mace Windu makes strategic use of one of these devices. I have put a screenshot below of the video of this episode, on which we can clearly see this MTT in Clone Wars version. The craft appears throughout the second part of the episode.

The colors are those of set 30059 and the compact form is respected. Hoping that LEGO will transform the trial by releasing us a The Clone Wars themed MTT in the range System to support our AATs (Armored Assault Tank) from set 8018 released in 2009.
