Governor Mister Phes Posted March 24, 2005 Governor Posted March 24, 2005 Which Lego set had the most pieces? Was it the Imperial Star Destroyer release a few years back? Or has there been a bigger? Quote

xwingyoda Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Oh come where is your sense of humour? :-D It was supposed to be a necessary fun post but you think I got carried away |-/ ...Ok I admit it was a little too blunt :$ You have to admit however, that the question would be more interesting if we let the SW UCS and big sculptures like the Statue of Liberty (...) out of the answers ;) Quote

sam89 Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 The Death Star is 25 inches (65 cm) high and 19 inches (50 cm) wide (including stand). Quote

The Middleman Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 What's the largest SYSTEM set? It'll be the Sandcrawler this summer, right? Quote
xwingyoda Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 In what terms? Pieces or size? Having a sandcrawler that is bigger than the AT-AT would be quite weird. However you could be right if we look at the price of the SC. Isnt' it supposed to be around 200 Quote
The Middleman Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 It's supposed to be $150 with around 1500 pieces. Quote
xwingyoda Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Impressive!! It should then be around 200 Quote

gylman Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 The black cat 5571 I thought was the biggest before all these useless gray Starwars sets came upon us. Space Shuttle 8480 was the biggest technic, wasn't it? Probably the new one from this year will top that. Which was the biggest castle? 6090? Gyl Quote
The Middleman Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 It was on the Eurobricks news a while back. Quote

Gyl According to Lugnet... 6080 King's Castle had 664 elements http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6080 However, 6085 Black Monarch's Castle had 665 elements http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6085 6090 Royal Knight's Castle had 743 elements. http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6090 However it was the very first Castle with the most pieces: 375 or 6075 Castle had 779 elements. http://guide.lugnet.com/set/375_2 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6075_2 Ironic how the first was the biggest. However, having said that the further in time the larger the elements became. So one large piece would (like a castle wall) would reduce the need for half a dosen smaller pieces. Quote
The Middleman Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Actually, Vladek's upcoming fortress will be the largest castle set ever, in terms of pieces. Over 800. Guess they're trying to make up for Castle of Morcia, eh? Quote

But is it just me, or do these sets look too "busy" with all the flags, ornamentation and weapons? Quote

I'm sure that on a cleaner-colored surface, it'd look less busy. Quote
