What's your recent LEGO Star Wars Purchase?

Clearly the Evicerator not just because of the better part availability and taht beautiful stand. The design of the monarch is great too no doubt, but the fact that it needs 3 stands as a display[sic!] model is a no go for me.

"Reverse engineering" Razor Crest MOC
Midlife-crisis replied to Midlife-crisis's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Thank you @MAVERICK26 @freddiegucci, those are stickers from the 10188 Death star, had some spare stickers after building "the agressor" and as the Razor Crest is an imperial vessle i thought they are the way to go. -
"Reverse engineering" Razor Crest MOC
Midlife-crisis replied to Midlife-crisis's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Hello there! i haven´t changed anything yet, maybe i´ll find some time during winter. Some small details of the cockpit roof and a little less gaps in the back covers would be nice. Still waiting for Baby Yoda and a Beskar Mando but i think Lego will produce one or more sets soon. The latest shots of the Razor Crest can be found here: Flickr Album Best regards MC -

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I also used a rigide hose on the backside. The green Part is Part Nr. 11476 as is not available in LDD. You will need a bunch of 4081. Hope the picture makes it easier for you. -

Hello @baciccia78, yes i have considered the Slave One Windscreen - i have the Slave one and did some tests with it. the shape is good no question. My conclution was: overall a little bit to big for that scale multiple stickers would be needed on both ends. Front and top. And also the stripes. less space inside, in the front area for the cockpit decoration visible gaps in the front section due to the different angles. -

Hi @WickNole thanks fpr stopping by! Your Razor looks very good so far. The cockpitsection locks very smooth. I just have one thing that triggers me a bit, the tail. Your frontsection seems to be 8Studs wide, your tail is 10studs wide and maybe one or 2Studs too wide. But nevertheless i´m really looking forward to see your final result and the rest of the ship!! -

Thank you, but i´m not sure if this building technique would work on such a big area like the razor crest cockpit. Might look nervous then. Thank you too @baciccia78 i also use Stud.io, but for some reason i like the "click" sound in LDD as feedback from the programm. But you are right Building Instruction wise, that stud.io is much better. A picture with @mcphatty superb micro! Minifigs still missing -

OMG, this Razor Crest is soooo cute! Most impressive how you managed to build all those details in this scale, proportions are also great, awesome work!!! Thank you for providing the building manual. -

Thank you all for your great feedback, much appreciated. @mcphatty, i´m looking forward to see your micro Razor Crest. Glad my reference "research" was helpful for you. I´m not going to make instructions or sell them, i think this will cause other "reverse engineerings" and in the end we will get even better models of this ship. Similar to the Star Destroyers or Venators, each iteration improves the models. -

Got the missing parts today. I´m not 100% happy with some of the back panels, might rework a few them but overall i´m very satisfied with the result. -

The missing parts are shipped today (Lego.com - Germany), i should get them in the next 3-4working days. I have also closed my (littl) bricklink store, because we have a "exit lock" in Austria. AUD tanked hard yesterday, but every currency did against USD. Wish you all good luck and a healty 2020! -

Thank you all for your great feedback. I also would not consider my cockpit to be "the" perfect solution - but to me it looks better then some alternatives. I´m still waiting for some smaller orders. Don´t know when i get them considering the current situation, and it makes no sense to work on the lower backpanels, as long as other areas aren´t finished. The estimated price for now is around 450€-500€ for the bricks. Minifigs not included .
