Calanon Posted October 4, 2014 I want this so much, it is just so detailed and gorgeous. I better start saving! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MontyPython Posted October 4, 2014 This is far better than I expected! It's so accomplished, solid and swooshable! And even the price is favorable. Must-have for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Posted October 4, 2014 Calanon and MontyPython already expressed my feelings! Must-have indeed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gremer Posted October 4, 2014 I'm almost speechless. It's absolutely fantastic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schneeds Posted October 4, 2014 It certainly exceeded my expectations. The engines are great, and you could easily add greebling if you wanted to. It seems like the inside is actually pretty hollow so there might be some possible interior mods as well. Even without mods it's an excellent and complete design, and the price is quite good. A must have for most collectors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chills Posted October 4, 2014 Just take my money, TLG! It looks much bigger than I thought it would be. Everything about this set looks awesome, detailing, accuracy, size, and I'm impressed at how solid and swooshable it is. There must be quite a network of Technic pieces inside. Speaking of inside, I'm a bit surprised the designer put in a trapdoor on the bottom to extricate a wayward carbonite block instead of walling off the cargo hold section. It's hard to say without seeing the set in person, but there might be some good areas for MODding in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_spock Posted October 4, 2014 Swoosh. I love it. It is collectible and playable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tariq j Posted October 4, 2014 This set amazes me in almost every way. The size, accuracy, minifigures. (The list goes on!). But I probably won't get it as soon as it comes out like I did with Ewok Village and Sandcrawler. I'll wait till the second UCS set comes out and compare.

Spyderlord Posted October 4, 2014 I am just confused at why did TLG shift the two UCS a year policy I can't say I am overly happy with that fact. GIve people a choice. I am not a huge fan of the Sandcrawler but I would love to get Slave I (not really, just making a point). At this rate, maybe, just maybe, TLG will release another UCS before the Ep. VII hits the screens and I was really hoping they would do the blody AT-AT UCS before we are submerged in new merchandise. This way, I have perhaps a single shot at it. Either they do it or I won't see it for 5 years to come The release date is a very dissapointing news, at least for me. When it comes to the ship itself, well, everything I already said: awsome box art, awsome minifugures and beautifully executed iron. But still an iron nonetheless.

Darth Nader Posted October 4, 2014 Haven't the pictures been revealed for a while, I saw them in the 2014 thread a little more than a month ago :/ It looks fantastic nonetheless, everything about it looks so cool! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mencot Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) Awesome, just awesome. Here it is what we have been waiting, in all its glory. I have stated ny feelings for this set before and when seeing the images over a month ago, how this set was everything I hope for in the set. Seeing now the press release and designer video, it is more awesome ihan expected. Totally hyped. I Am a big fan of SW and what comes with it and I feel I have some knowledge in the movies and EU history, but one question. It is ofcourse a minor thing but the cockpit in Boba Fetts version, it didnt rotate any more when Boba piloted it, like it had originaly done right?

Brickwright Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) The "emptying" hatch on the bottom is bizarre, but it seems to be a useful feature. It was obvious from the earlier images, but the top (in flight mode, that is) is more square than it should be, which is a problem the "curved slope" Slave I's all had. However, the Slave I has so many crazy shapes to begin with, so all things considered, it's a very well executed representation. The side profile is perfectly done, and it also looks great from the straight top-to-bottom, 3/4 in landing mode, and head-on positions. Others had said that the staggered dark red quarter-circles on the bottom seemed lumpy. Before, I had agreed with them, but it doesn't really bother me anymore. I imagine if they didn't have to come up with as much structural support for the nose, they would have been able to include more features. I'm sure people will mod interiors into this thing once it's out. They were pretty tasteful with the stickers. For the contingent of fans that don't like using the sticker sheets, it seems like you could leave out the stickers without ruining the overall look of the model. It's a little weird that the engines are blue. Anywhere you look, they are orange or sometimes yellow (including all five Lego iterations of the ship that have engine glow). Simple enough to fix though, and most certainly not a significant flaw, since those elements exist in trans-orange or trans-neon orange. I haven't gotten a UCS set since 2006, but this one might change that, especially if I get around to Bricklinking a UCS Falcon.

Lobot Posted October 4, 2014 The more I look at this set, the more I'm impressed by it, apart from the underside. It just looks a bit unfinished, compared with the rest of the model. I'm really looking forward to building this though, a day one purchase for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blondie-Wan Posted October 4, 2014 (edited) It's gorgeous, indeed. I just wish I could get it right off, but I still have a huge backlog of other sets I need, including the UCS R2-D2, X-Wing, Ewoks Village and Sandcrawler, to say nothing of numerous other, smaller Star Wars sets (not to mention a ton of sets from every other theme imaginable)... My only quibbles, I think, are that aside from using stickers for decoration (I'd certainly hope for more printed elements in a set this expensive), it has only one Cloud City guard and one Stormtrooper. With the former in particular, one might reasonably hope to do at least a little army building, but the only sets that have ever featured them are a couple different versions of the Slave I, and the minifigures don't even match. That said, of course the minifigures aren't really the main point of a set like this, and the model itself is gorgeous. I like to mod and MOC my own LEGO Star Wars universe, but this set looks like one I might like to just use as is, sans modification - it's that lovely. I Am a big fan of SW and what comes with it and I feel I have some knowledge in the movies and EU history, but one question. It is ofcourse a minor thing but the cockpit in Boba Fetts version, it didnt rotate any more when Boba piloted it, like it had originaly done right? Well, I've never ridden in the "real" Slave I, obviously, but I've been a Star Wars fan since the original movie was at the end of its initial theatrical run when I was a kid back in the late '70s. I grew up with various toys, models, etc. of various Star Wars vehicles and vessels including this one, and most of them (such as Kenner's version for their 3 3/4" action figures, and MPC's model kit) did have Boba's seat rotate to stay "level" in flight. According to the ship's entry on Wookieepedia, it originally didn't have the rotating seat, and that was a mod made by Fett himself.

Infernum Posted October 4, 2014 Such awesome shaping! I love how the designer built the curves here, and I love how 'swoosh'-able it seems! Love cool functions too, which are always a plus! I also like the use of sand green. The combination of sleek curves and worn detailing looks very appealing here! The subtle greebling is also very well done! I can't stand to back though... It looks ugly and incomplete, and what's up with the blue engines? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arc Posted October 5, 2014 and what's up with the blue engines? that's the only thing that really bothers me with this set, in almost every picture I see, the engines are orange. But other than that the set is amazing! Unfortunately my budget doesn't allow for a set like this, but regardless, just awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
