LEGO Star Wars set 8039, Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser, depicts the Republic attack cruiser associated with the Clone Wars setting. Released in 2009, it contains 1170 pieces and belongs to the Star Wars theme.

The model represents the Venator, a capital ship of the Galactic Republic closely associated with clone forces and the Clone Wars era. Within the Star Wars theme, it serves as a fleet vessel rather than a small starfighter, shuttle, or ground vehicle.

The build uses 1170 pieces to capture the cruiser’s long profile in a LEGO format suited to display and play.

This set suits collectors and fans who want a Republic capital ship for shelf display or scene building. Among sets in the same theme, it is best placed as a Clone Wars Republic fleet model, with a figure selection that supports command, crew, and political roles connected to the ship’s setting.
