[MOC] Executor-Class Super Star Destroyer

[Bbafett]

I am curious if anyone tried to find an alternative from the 2x2 magnet holders that cost $10-$20/each for this MOC? I have bought those before for Anio's Venator and they are the most expensive part. Is there a work around for this? If so what parts would it use?

On my SSD (post to follow next week) I used some technic and 'Bionicle' parts to hold the lower deck in place in the aft sections, and . . . well, you'll see how I did the upper deck and front lower deck area.

This worked well enough that I could pick up the assembled ship and give it a reasonable shake and no decks fell off. (Admittedly I only did it once or twice and dared not do it again. )

BTW . . . my SSD was over 7 feet long.

Towball-pins in combination with technic links work very well too:

The Technic elements with ball are indeed a possibility.

However, U joint and liftarms attached to the wings rather than the structure, no thanks.

Sorry to bump an old post! New user here.

Anio, I am really interested in purchasing a copy of the instructions for this amazing MOC. Are they are still available for sale?

Thank you!

Are they are still available for sale?

Today i finished my Super Star Destroyer, i must say it's a beauty! The grrebles of the upper city are insane, i like it a lot. The overal design is very nice. So thank you Anio for the instructions. Some pics:

Question. I am building this finally. Did you have any issues with the magnets holding the bottom hulls? It is not holding the weight what currently? I don't see anything not connecting. Let me know.

EDIT. Never mind I hadn't put the blue band on and that made a difference. Seems good now.

Finished Anio's SSD. Here is an album with pictures. Also alongside is his Venator build. Awesome ship builds and look great on our entertainment center. I would totally recommend people building these. Venator is my favorite, but Anio's SSD is so much better than the Lego SSD as I dismantled that to use what I could to build his SSD.

Those look amazing together! I agree the Venator is the best ship in the galaxy. Wish I had the time and money to build those ships. I am working on a ISD scale Venator MOC though similar to Primus's, but my design :) .

Thank you for the pictures.

It is much appreciated. :)

The pictures are great! I don't think I could ever build this but I feel I can live the experience of building this beast through the pics. Very nice!
