Synthesized Verdict

"The Coruscant Police Gunship scores a BrickScore of 83.8 and earns a 100% would-recommend rate from owners: it is a Highly Recommended Clone Wars gem whose exclusive Shock Troopers and double-sided Ahsoka Tano minifigure cement its status as one of the most collectible sets from that era."

The Coruscant Police Gunship (75046) is near-universally praised by expert and casual reviewers alike, with MandRproductions calling it better than remembered and Solid Brix Studios placing it at the top of its wave. The minifigure lineup, headlined by the most accurate Clone Wars Shock Troopers ever produced and a top-tier Ahsoka Tano, is the clear consensus highlight. Owners agree: a 4.68 average across 15 LEGO ratings and a 100% would-recommend rate confirm the set's strong reputation, and the BrickScore of 83.8 (Highly Recommended) reflects that the vehicle itself holds up well alongside the exceptional figures.

LOVED (7)

01Two exclusive Clone Wars Shock Troopers with red arms, widely agreed to be the most accurate versions produced to that point
02Ahsoka Tano minifigure with double-sided face print, called one of her best versions
03Numerous integrated play features including spring-loaded shooters, retractable landing gear, opening cockpit, rear cargo hatches, and a spotlight
04Translucent red windscreen at the correct angle giving a professional, show-accurate look
05Solid, substantial build with good display presence
06Four minifigures for $49.99 considered strong value at retail
07Unique vehicle type (urban patrol gunship) that stands apart from the fighter/capital-ship-heavy Star Wars lineup

CRITICIZED (6)

01Cockpit access is awkward and difficult; removing seated minifigures reportedly damages them over time
02Sticker alignment on the midsection creates visible gaps from certain viewing angles
03Ahsoka's reddish-brown plastic variant is prone to cracking and joint stiffness
04Large empty section in the rear hold with no access, wasting interior volume
05Side cargo doors are plain hinges rather than sliding mechanisms
06Commander Fox not included, which multiple reviewers noted would have been a natural addition to the Shock Trooper theme

2008 Gunship — The rear spy droid compartment and some features remind the reviewer of the 2008 gunship design.

Standout parts (per reviewers)

Translucent red windscreen
Large two-piece windscreen in translucent red at 15-20 degree angle, built with Technic pieces internally; nicely minimizes gaps for a relatively complex design
Spring-loaded shooters
Main play feature; nicely integrated into design and almost impossible to see; not an eyesore when empty
Landing gear
Retractable landing gear primarily aesthetic but adds clean look when retracted
Police light details
Red light on left side, blue light on right side creating alternating light system like American police cars
Spring-loaded U blasters in blue transparent color
This is the only set where these new spring-loaded blasters come in blue transparent color; all other Republic-type sets have them in green. The reviewer notes this unique color variant looks cooler.
Shock trooper helmet with visor printValue
New Clone Wars variant based on Clone Wars clone trooper design, distinct from earlier trooper designs like the 212th troopers.

COMMON COMPLAINTS
