    What's your recent LEGO Star Wars Purchase?

    After my small dark age, and still kinda in it since I haven't got the space for larger mocs, I got the Kashyyyk trooper battle pack, AT-AP, Palpatine's shuttle, two V-wings and the latest Clone Turbo tank to make a kashyyyk based moc somewhere in the future.

    Tie round cockpit help

    I would just use the cockpit design from the official First Order Tie Fighter, and mod it, since that is the most round (as in a ball) cockpit we currently have.

    [MOC] E-wing starfighter WIP

    Hi everyone, I used parts of the official Resistance X-wing and Lego's Jek-14 stealth fighter to create the E-wing from Star Wars Legends. It's still a WIP, but I intend to build one in real life. Maybe you guys have some tips/ideas for this one?
  4. Imperial TIE/sf fighter by Brick Viller, on Flickr So I really liked the concept of the First Order in The Force Awakens. However the excecution of their vehicles and troops felt a little short when it came to good old Imperial aesthetics. One of those things that bothered me were the reverse colored TIE fighters. Then I decided to re-reverse the color changes of 75101 (Special forces Tie fighter), back to the Imperial color scheme. I really like this one much more than the original Lego set.
  5. This is one of my first Castle mocs, because I wanted to try something new

    LEGO Star Wars 2015 Pictures and Rumors

    Yeah, that was kinda obvious from the start now was it? Anyway, I really like this wave. The Rebels sets are good and I like we get a nice stormie battlepack even if they're rebels. But I'm not familiar with those dark imperial troopers/guards, can anyone enlighten me on those?

    MOC - Mustafar

    Wow. That is awesome! The entire thing is so breath taking. The level of detail is grand and I love the edited photo's. I even thought at first glance the first pic came from the movies

    LEGO Star Wars 2015 Pictures and Rumors

    Just watched the pilot episode of Rebels. It seems to be more thought out than the first Clone wars episodes, and the setting is nice. The 2015 AT-DP walker and that stormtrooper battlepack look really good, now hoping we get official pictures soon.

    2015 City Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    Yay! More police! Why not less civilian sets when you're at it? Seriously, I get it, police sells well and Lego needs to make money. But I still hope we'll see more civilian sets.

    Bionicle 2015 Discussion

    I'm so happy with this, one of my most beloved themes of my (and many others) childhood is finally coming back. That Skullspider sounds really cool. But can't the name be Spider.. of masks? that would make more sense right?

    Should LEGO cut ties with Shell?

    Greenpeace...aren't they that group of eco-terrorists with a boss flying an expensive oil fueled jet? On the other hand, now I do feel like getting some of those arctic based city sets... reverse advertisment or something?

    Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here

    Does anyone knows why the Homing Spider droid was never featured in the Clone Wars tv series? It kinda puzzles me for a while..

    "eeeeeee" sound when using PF train motors

    As a fellow Dutchman who travels by train, I can confirm this. I always found the sound of some trains here a little to similar to the Lego sound. Glad that question has been answered You can hear the sound in this vid (at least if it uses that PWM stuff)

    Canalview (II) train station WIP

    For my current second city project I wanted to build a complete new station. Here's a short description: The first version was made over almost 2 years ago, it was one of my largest buildings and by the time most expensive. Only a few pictures were made before this, and the entire city was demolished. Now I still have a great pile of those trans smoke windows. It's one of my best examples of how my Lego hobby went out of control After The Great Destruction my Lego hobby decayed over time. A few projects from that time remain, including another attempt at a new big station. Unlike the previous version it would be less modern, and more rural, However again the sheer size of it would have made it very expensive. Luckely I realized this before it would be finished. The third 'draft' was supposed to become the final station. As you can see it's quite large, and inspired by my Modern house which won the second prize for the LDD design your dreamhouse contest: http://mocpages.com/moc.php/383073 However it was large, very expensive and in the end just not practical. The upper floor was just empty and would be filled with seats, and an information desk. However apart from resting there would be no reason for minifigs to even enter this area, since it was not connected to the platform were the trains depart. Also my city was supposed to become smaller than my previous one, while this station clearly is on the same scale. These were all reasons for me to not finish it. The station also had a small parking lot for Public Transport Electric cars (the ones with the light green roofs), which is one of the ideas that may be used in my city. One of the other buildings I created was also a station, however it was never finished in favour of the one before this Sooo yess, that brings me to the latest prototype station. You may notice it's smaller than any of my previous stations, while still maintaning a modern feel. It also has some neat details, like the OV-kaartlezers and rechargers (oplaadpunt) which are used in the Netherlands for public transport (just google it ). Also it has several drink dispencers, restrooms for woman and men and a small information desk I hope you enjoyed my report so far, I will update it once the station has been build. Also feel free share your opinion
