About this deal
The Aggressive ReConnaissance 170 Starfighter, or simply ARC-170 Starfighter was a starfighter and heavy bomber used by the Republic Army during the later days of the Clone Wars. The ship featured six proton torpedoes in addition to the wingtip-mounted laser cannons which were larger than those carried by most other military starfighters. They were known to escort other, smaller fighters such as V-wing starfighters and Eta-2 interceptors. The crew consisted of three Clone Pilots - one pilot, one forward gunner to control the wing guns, one tail gunner to control the rear-mounted cannons, and one Astromech Droid to make any necessary onboard repairs or navigation. This set is very similar to the original ARC-170 Starfighter ( 7259) from 2005, and they have the exactly the same number of pieces.
The set also includes Kit Fisto with a green lightsaber, which also features a new colour for the Lightsaber hilt—silver. The Clone Pilot Minifigure has been redesigned since its first release in 2005, now featuring an open-faced helmet and more accurate torso print. Captain Jag is similar to the other pilot, except that he features new blue markings on his helmet.
