Mandalorianknight Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) After I made the clone battle pack, I had to make it's counterpart, which turned out to be pretty difficult because 1. I'm not that good at MOCing to begin with and 2. the main build doesn't remotely resemble anything in canon or legends, so I didn't have a way to make it more accurate. I made my own spin on the STAP pretty fast, though it's not that good, but that transport build took awhile. My first draft was over 160 pieces, so I had to downsize it. I also brought the number of B2s down from 3 to 2, as even with battle droids I don't think lego would put 7 figures in one battle pack nowadays. One problem with adapting the original transport was it had some pretty big pieces for the sides, so I made a similar shape with smaller pieces, as lego would do in a battle pack today. I also added the dreaded stud shooters for the build, but kept the normal blasters for the figures themselves. The transport seats 3 figures and a pilot, and has room for 4 blasters to be clipped on the sides. Image of the original set for reference: And just for fun, a separatist version, since canonically it doesn't make sense for B2s to be in trade federation colored vehicles: Let me know any suggestions, and if you have an idea for the next one I should make, let me know that as well!

RetroInferno Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) This could sell well IMO, but those B1 would need prints, like the ones included with the most recent gunship and AT-AP. Edited April 30, 2020 by RetroInferno Quote

The tank driver ones? Maybe one or two, but I didn't want to change the figure setup that much. Quote
RetroInferno Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 A pilot with blue stripes and maybe an officer yeah, but as a remake of the original it's nice as is. Quote
