Ecosystem

MAF Droid Gunship — Reviewer expresses hope for a larger MAF version, noting that the current set's cockpit would have had more room if it were a MAF.

Twilight (implied LEGO set) — This exclusive is one of the better exclusives, unlike Twilight which is criticized by the reviewer

75038 (2014 Droid Gunship) 77 — the 2008 version doesn't hold up in accuracy or detail compared to the newer model, but has a superior bomb-drop mechanism

75233 (2019 Droid Gunship) 77 — the 2019 version looks more accurate to the actual Droid Gunship, but the older bomb-dropping mechanism is way better than the 2019 version
