(MOC) Hangar Bay 327

Recommended Posts

I love it. Do you have a ball park estimate on how much you might have spent on just the bricks for the hanger? I do wonder on starting something like this...

Thank you!

Costwise I think it settles somewhere around the 1.000 Euro area... I got all the black tiles pretty cheap at Legoland (around 3ct per piece) the other costly parts are the DBG 2x3, 2x4 and 2x6 bricks which you need in really great numbers... But those can be bricklinked new and cheap from time to time. I got almost everything in white, black and red already in my stock, so I "just" had to get the DBG and some of the LBG bricks... But make no mistake. This a really demanding project! It's about 8000 parts, 11 baseplates and a gigantic wooden plate to put it all onto + you'll need a 10179 handy to fill it up...

I love it. Such a great MOC; thanks for posting the additional pictures. I'm just sitting here scrolling back and forth through them.

Thank you all!

Very nice one. What is the total weigth of the whole setup?

Can't say, really... I'd estimate it between 20-25kg with the Falcon and the baseplate...

Hey H_Solo, do you have the dimensions of the entire hanger please?

I am planning to custom make a coffee table to fit my 10179 and want to see if I can make it in the size that, if I do embark on this, the entire hanger could fit inside.

Mucho thanks! :)

Hello and Thank you!

I just measured the moc... 115x89,5x36cm

Of course you can shorten it accordingly to yor needs, But I thought bigger is better!

Thank you for that, H_Solo!

It is definitely helpful to know the dimensions of the Hanger so that I can plan accordingly. I was initially thinking of a 100 x 100 cm square but I was unsure of the height as I do not want the height of the coffee table to be too tall and it cannot be too short, otherwise the MF cannot "swoosh" in.

Can I please trouble you to help measure the size of the hanger entrance?

I guess more planning is needed! :)

Sure thing... The inside of the entrance measures 77x26cm

Incredible MOC. The very best I've ever seen -- ever -- of this hangar, and really does fit the Falcon nicely. Is anyone else in total awe of the shelves in the background? :cry_happy:

Thank you!

Right now I'm toying with the idea of adding a right-hand wall to the scene, perhaps even a control room over the area where Vader and Obi Wan have their duel...

Also as the scene is starting to collect some dust I think about getting it behind acrylic glass... But the scene is so big, that there are only few manufacturers to do something like that... And it comes with a price! Perhaps I have to that on my own.
