    Did she mean an image of list with a set including ewoks and scout troopers? Because that's the only supposed 'leak' of that sort so far as I'm aware. And it's reliability is in doubt.

    She definitely meant an actual image but maybe it was some fake somewhere. This list^ is the only thing I've been able to find, so I'm pretty skeptical too.

    Very nice MOC, it does indeed look very sturdy. I also love the first picture's composition with the red bricks :laugh:

    Having seen them in action in the movie, I was wondering if you have shortened the "ski" part which appears a bit too long in my opinion. Pictures of your updated version are also welcome :wink:

    Looking back it really was too long, huh! It didn’t stay built but I may put together a similar version, because I really loved that scene and the official one just looks way too big ? I’ll post on here if I do make one!

    The license, or more particularly Hasbro's license for Star Wars Action Figures, prevents Lego releasing sets that are purely minifigs or from releasing Star Wars CMFs (Outside of promotions). That's how battlepacks actually came about, they can be made/released/sold because they come with a build, so that's the way around it.

    That's kinda what I'm talking about. The City People Packs all come with little builds. Sure for a Star Wars version you might have to sure it up a bit. Maby instead of a couple of little things that are 3-10 bricks each, it could be something slightly larger, like a speeder or a speeder bike or both or something. Basically a battlepack, but 2-3 times the size, in terms of volume/figures.

    That said, it is just a kinda fantastical wish that will probably never come true. But I can dream...

    Thanks for clarifying! It would be everyone’s dream, I think ! ?

    There's something I'd like to see, but I seriously doubt I'll ever see it.

    Star Wars People Packs. Like the 'Fun in the Park' and 'Fun at the Beach' City sets they did. Except Star Wars.

    And I'm not talking about doing packs with characters like Luke, Obi-Wan or Rey. I mean generic people that would exist in the Star Wars universe. And not just humans, but aliens too.

    I’m pretty sure I read (on Ideas somewhere?) the license actually prevents them from making people packs because it covers building toys and not figures.

    Great mods. Makes me want to pick up the set! Would love to see a shot of the entire ship.

    I've added a couple more photos for you ! I really recommend it. It channels all my favourite parts of Star Wars design.


  6. Hi !

    Here's a few mods I've made to 75188 Resistance Bomber in the last few days.

    I first changed the engines to blue (I swear it seems like blue and orange are ALWAYS reversed on Star Wars vehicles!)

    36420998424_0e9558840f.jpg

    I'm not a big fan of stud shooters in most contexts, so I switched the rear cannons out for display ones.

    36420997104_3659abbd35.jpg

    I also wanted them to rotate together, which took some figuring out. I couldn't find a way to use friction pins to hold both cannons so I put another axle in with a little gear system like in Slave 1.  I went through a few different iterations but this was the most compact solution I could find.

    36420998264_928d3975cb.jpg

    I transferred the stickers in the bubble canopies to clear 2x2 slopes, and switched the brackets and tiles for a little more visibility.

    37261272535_fbdbb36c3c.jpg

    Shorter wings to be a little more in proportion.

    36420996474_7521d0cd9e.jpg

    The interior was already great, but I tiled over the floor and added a weapons rack.

    36420997294_2297121aa8.jpg

    I added a small ladder up to the gunner position and added in some more details and stickered controls by the gunner's hands. You can't really see them in this picture, though.

    36420995694_c20123489d.jpg

    The exterior of the turret is mostly the same but it was a great design to start with!

    36420996124_39ca996714.jpg

    For the cockpit I used a bunch of stickered elements from 75105 (getting slowly disassembled in preparation for the big one!) Snap is piloting for the moment, until we find out what the whole crew will be (probably not a bunch of X-wing pilots !)

    36420995914_715b24a2a9.jpg

    The rest of the changes are just minor cosmetics all over the hull, but I've already made this too long so here's just two more pictures. I didn't capture everything, of course !

    36420995624_bbb989a6ed.jpg

    This is a really great set! It looks beautiful and is so much fun. As an AFOL I tend to just display things but it's impossible not to fly this around the room !

    Thank you :^)

    I've used a few different balaclava heads for all of our TIE pilots and AT-AT drivers, as shown below////

    Thank you for photographing them!! That's a good solution, accurate to the source material too :)

    I've got some questions about The nee Mf. Is it possible to buy The Falcon Right in 14th September in The Store in cologne if I'm a vip member. I know that it's possible to Order it from The 14th of September. If i'll Order it When do i GEt it? Do I have ti wait until 1 october. 

    Are there Any stores where Young von buy The falcon on 14th september pe is oh just The one in london?

    Would be Great if someone Knows an answer.

     

    If you order it online then you'll get it before the 1st of october, depends on the shipping time! It doesn't seem like anyone's sure whether or not every store will have it on the 14th but if you live near the Cologne store it will be worth checking in on that day :)
