For purist Star Wars Fans the Clone Wars exciting movie and Tv series is too much of a deviation from the customary feel of Star Wars to be thought about part of the universe. Others who enjoy a good story with exciting characters, and are not so fixated on the canon, can appreciate the entertainment that The Clone Wars offers.
Lego has been making sets based on the series for a couple of years now as part of their 2010 wave have released set 8128, Cad Ban's Speeder. Can Bane, for those not in the loop, is the villain of late Season one and Season two. He is important in the last two episodes of Season one, entitled Hostage accident where he captured the Senate construction on Coruscant, ostensibly to free the crime lord Ziro The Hutt.

This set is also featured in Hostage accident and comes with five figures; an Assassin Droid, Cad Bane, bad-guy Shahan Alama, a generic Senate Commando and the Senate Commando Captain, Jayfon who has a pivotal role in the episode. The two Senate Commando's were previously only ready with the large Republic cruiser set so are a welcome increasing here. At the time of writing Cad Bane is only ready in one other set so this is also a economy alternative to get this needful villain.
The Speeder itself is very nice, apart from the unfortunate presence of stickers. It is screen accurate with a estimate of seating areas in the middle and a cargo bay at the rear. It's very "swooshable" and kids will have a great time transporting their minifigs from one destination to the other. It's about 10 inches (25.4cm) long which is a good size, large sufficient to play with or display easily and uses a collection of clever techniques in the building.
With a price of .99 pieces it fits with Lego' s current tendency to overprice these Star Wars sets but with a estimate of rare figures and a pretty sweet ride, it may be a bit of a sleeper hit.
