HJR-Holland Posted January 9, 2006 Cool, isn't it? The best part are the ghosts which are supposed to be snowtroopers; Best of all is the ISD he made back then; almost a lookalike of what LEGO launched themselves... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vader Posted January 9, 2006 Well for the pieces of lego that were available at the time i think that this is by far the best moc's of its time, as for that ISD that is a thing of beauty and i doubt many of us could do better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Khorne Posted January 9, 2006 The building are amazing, I would never be able to build those :oD . I really love the inside of the Imperial Star Destroyer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deinonychus Posted January 9, 2006 Wow, that's great! :-D It's kind of like seeing the story told with those Ralph McQuarrie visualization paintings, before the looks of the characters, beasts, and tech were totally nailed down all the way. Great use of the parts of the time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legoman Posted January 9, 2006 yes i have seen this many times but i have seen the 1992 part in it thats amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beagle Posted January 9, 2006 Fantastic! Some of his ships are spitting images for the official versions that Lego later made themselves..... poor fellow was ahead of his time! I REALLY like the way he did Yoda. I have often wished Lego's version was more like that, with the standard minifig-shaped head. Booooo to too-realistic molded heads!

tophdawg Posted January 9, 2006 i love those. some of those models, like the millenium falcon, if it were bulit today, would be considered great. it is hard to imagine how many pieces that we take for granted today were not around then. i also love the minis that he made Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
