Mr Man Posted January 28, 2012 I love seeing ships MODed with LED's, and this looks great on the Falcon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuppylodders Posted January 28, 2012 Those LED's give (especially the rear) that slight better finishing touch that the set seems to be missing =D Brilliant! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dapper-D2 Posted January 28, 2012 Cool mod Envy! You’ve brightened up this ship very nicely! Makes me want to do the same to mine! Also makes me wonder why Lego doesn’t include these LED’s already in some sets? I know I’d like to see Lego step up their game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted January 29, 2012 Perfect lighting system. The rear lights are exactly like the original one in the movie! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foremast Jack Posted January 29, 2012 Your falcon looks great! Slightly off-topic perhaps, but seems fitting enough. As someone who's wholly ignorant of most LEGO Star Wars sets; how does this Falcon set compare to the UCS one. I ask in terms of size. I can see from photos that the UCS obviously has a lot more details, but it's hard to get a sense of scale. Is the UCS drastically larger? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The UCS looks much smaller on the pictures than in real life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Huntleyfx Posted January 29, 2012 A great MOD on the ship. I especially like that you added headlights in addition to that great rear engine. I am already seeing the scene with the space slug in my mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fallenangel Posted February 6, 2012 I don't think anyone saw the other stuff i moc'd.. I redid the rear of the ship.If you look at the top pic and then the other 2 see if you can tell.. I see you've extended the rear so that the entire back half protrudes as much as the engine area. I rather liked how they remembered to include that detail. The rear lights are exactly like the original one in the movie! I'd say it actually appears too narrow – it should fill up the whole of the aforementioned protruding engine area. Of course, the fact that lego envy has extended that protrusion makes it a bit more difficult to discern that detail, but given that the blue tube barely clears the three flaps in the centre, it should definitely be enlargened.

Is the UCS drastically larger? 7965 is about the same size as 4504, which is in the middle of this picture: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
