Hello folks !

final rating for this scultpure set : 10/10 !!

best seen from a few meters like the statue of liberty.

Thanks for the review Argrotic! I'm still iffy about this set, it looks big and impressive, but that nose cone just doesn't cut it. But TLC did a good job considering that planes are very hard to build, I don't even like the nose cones of alot of these so much.

You say "crappy nose ? quite not sure now ..." but then you rate it "10/10 !!", I'm confused.

Whoaw, how many 1x1 clear slopes did you get with this big baby??? X-O

oups... my English is maybe too bad ... crappy doesn't mean ugly ?

now, I'm not sure that the nose is ugly. because seen from 1 or 2 meters, the plane looks realy great !

I guess your english is fine I just wasn't sure if you were saying you weren't sure if you liked the plane becuase of the nose or that you weren't sure if the nose is as bad as other people said it is. Savy?

First, I dislike the set "what a crapy nose !", "too many angles on it !"

but, I remembered the Statue of Liberty or the Darth Maul bust... when I saw then in real life (and not only on the web), I liked them.

And you know what, that's he same for the dreamliner !!

so... I rated 10/10 because it's realy a great set, for those who like sculptures.

oooooooo lots of 1x1 clear slopes *y*

did i see this right? the blue cone of the nose is not attached to any other part? you just slide it over the blue cilinder?

[BillytheKid]

I must admit, it looks fantastic. But....I will never buy it, unless it was for sale. I've no room for something big like that. I've sold my statue of liberty this month. It's too big 8-| .

Many tks Nico for your great review ;-)

At first I totally disliked this set but I do admit it looks way better than my first impression !! Thats the thing with sculptures, do not look at them at close range :-D

The only sculpture I have is that UCS Yoda and it looks like crap on a closer look, but in a distance it looks great IMO.

*yoda*
