r5-j2 Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Recently |I`ve not been too impressed with the current crop of Star Wars sets, but I saw the fantastic displays on show at LEGOLAND and I got the Star Wars bug again..I picked up the buildable K2S0 at the park shop and Hamley`s outlet at Heathrow had the Shore Trooper on sale ,so I blagged him..then I saw that Argos had the R1 Chicken Walker at £35 that came home as did the Landspeeder which even at full price is a steal, but Argos did it for £18.00. Anyhow ,so far only the Landspeeder has been built and I love it!..I did do a couple of wee tweaks, I had a spare Artoo which I attached to the speeder using a back -pack piece as a sort of a bracket (Jang suggested this in his youtube review),it`s not that secure, but it stops him falling off when on display, I have a white version of this piece (I think), but I havn`t found it yet. I used the torso/legs of the Luke figure that came with the D.K. Visual Dictionary book coupled with the set supplied head/hair piece and swapped out the repaired engine pod for a lighter grey version . Next on my list ,are the Vader transformation set and new Clone Trooper Tank...!! Take care everybody Kenny.

VaderFan2187 Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 Nice tweaks! Though I am curious why you swapped Luke's bodies? Love how you included your @r5-j2 figure, lol Quote

Take care Bro Kenny. Quote
