Review LEPIN 05053 – Republic Dropship with AT-OT Walker

Relation of Republic Dropship with forum support:

I would like to share with you the development of my Lepin 05053 – Republic Dropship with AT-OT Walker and will, therefore, be successive documented the construction progress, so to speak, a “Live Review” for you. Since I will take over all the parts in the first post, you can quietly comment below

Dates:
1788 parts
Published in 2009, the Lepin variant in January 2017
The weight of all parts approx. 2.3 kg
