I have this, but I honestly don't remember it at all.

Infiltrating my parts collection after I sort it without building it

I know LEGO just loves this ship with how often it's been made over the years, but it only took 3 series of the Mini sets before they started scraping the bottom of the barrel when there were still plenty of other more memorable ones yet to be made and even never were made. Darth Maul's my favorite character, but he does nothing in this ship. It might as well not even be in The Phantom Menace that's how irrelevant it is short of a couple establishing shots.

Sithfulltraitor, gotcha...:D...Funny, the only ship design I hated more than this one; was 7752 Count Dooku's Solar Sailer...to which also said at the time "Disney should sue" (because, you know; TRON), but/yet...'Monkey's Paw':D

I always wanted this one. I see Huwbot is still lovin’ Star Wars. I love it, too.

It is pretty iconic for how little it did. I’d love to see Maul’s custom Gaunlet from Rebels get a set, but there’s probably not much chance of that.

The Star Wars kick continues

"Everything about Maul was great and new in the movie. The ship, the lightsaber, his style and look. It was a terrible decision to kill him off and switch the villains. Thank goodness the animation revived him and gave us great stories."

Yeah, they probably should have kept him around until Revenge of the Sith at least. Dooku could have just been a politician.

@PurpleDave: Yes they do...own it that is...hence: 'Monkey's Paw' (as in; Dismal got their 'wish', but at 'a cost':)).

The mini sets were great! (Oxymoron much?)

That said, I wasn' nearly as interested in the 2004 ones after getting the 4492 Star Destroyer. It lacked basic accuracy and had no minikit parts! And it was monochrome except for some internals and the engines. No prints either.

I have since gotten it back and I like it for nostalgia, mostly.

That said, the others from this line like today's RSotD are better and benefit from prints and more colorful parts, judging from the instructions. This one has folding winglets (albeit folding incorrectly) and even folding landing gear at the front!
The Lambda shuttle and AT-TE are fine ones too.

And on the bright side, since there are no minikit parts all of the budget goes to the main model!

Has sand blue. Good set.

A mini Infiltrator...a Minfiltrator!

I kinda miss mini scale ships being something every store had.

I got the 2003? I think tie advanced and x-wing from my brothers lego but its not fully built. I also got no idea where the extra piece for the tie bomber combiner model went.

Weirdly enough the mini tie advanced uses sand blue instead of the regular blue the playscale model had.

I have the jedi starfighter and Jango fetts starship 2-pack from the mini series (4487)! There isn't really much to say about the set, but i did use the TIE bomber fuselage to make a pretty nice looking custom astromech!

Johannes Kepler originated the idea in 1610, just a few years before TRON. Konstantin Tsiolkovsky came up with the first functional concept in 1921. I don’t think Disney has grounds to sue. Plus they own SW now."

The first time I remember seeing the idea was in the hardcover book accompaniment to Cosmos, the TV series by Carl Sagan circa 1980.

This little set has two unique prints.

"Gee, it's been a Star Wars sort of a week. "

In the last 9 days, we've had 3 Star Wars sets and 5 minifigures. Huwbot's going through another one of those phases of his.

Sure beats clik its...

I disagree about this ship being any kind of iconic, but it was one of the few logical subjects for a set with Darth Maul in it in Phantom Menace. This doesn't even have that going for it, though.

more accurate fuselage shaping than this year's one, and I'm being serious

Oh this is one that faded badly in the sun.

Everything Starwars!

"They hated Jesus because he told them the truth."

Awesome! Awesome…

I feel like one of a very few who actually likes this ship - anyone else in Camp Infiltrator?

A little more screen time would have been great.
