"With a BrickScore of 82.4 and strong collector consensus, the Republic AV-7 Anti-Vehicle Cannon is Highly Recommended on the strength of its exclusive Phase 2 Wolfpack Troopers and the final Plo Koon minifigure, a combination that drove the set from $40 at retail to hundreds of dollars on the secondary market."
Expert reviewers and Star Wars fans consistently rate the Republic AV-7 Anti-Vehicle Cannon (75045) as a standout Clone Wars set, driven almost entirely by its two exclusive Phase 2 Wolfpack Clone Troopers and the final production of Plo Koon. Dedicated reviewers from Five Lonely Clones, Solid Brix Studios, and JANG all recommend it, praising the multiple play features and the worm-drive elevation mechanism, while noting cosmetic weaknesses like excessive yellow piece contrast and a short cannon barrel. Owners back this up with a 4.41 average across 12 LEGO ratings and an 82% would-recommend rate.
Where they split: Minor disagreement on the cannon's design merit: one LEGO.com reviewer criticized the concept as tactically nonsensical and disliked the minifigures as poor fits for the scene, while dedicated Star Wars reviewers (Five Lonely Clones, Solid Brix Studios, JANG) praised the design as iconic and the minifigures as the best reason to own the set.
