  1. I really love this set. I rarely buy UCS sets on day one, but I made an exception for this one. If I could change anything about it, it would be switching the Ubrikkian for a Flare-S or Void Spider, just something different that we haven't had before, but it's not a big deal. I'm actually really happy that the extraneous buildings were included, they make it feel like it's in a city.

    Without having it yet, I give it 4.5 out of 5.

    What's the likelihood that a new UCS quality version of Greedo tanks the cost of the original Greedo with arm printing? I have the original and I've been considering selling it for a while now.

    I would check and see if the UCS figures of Boba Fett, Lando, Leia and the like have decreased in price with the new versions. I would guess you should be fine, there's always demand for originals.


  3. This is a pretty eh wave for me. The Night Buzzard is great, the AAT is okay at best, and I might get the Resistance I-TS transport. Other than that, bleh. The 2011 version of Grievous' Starfighter was better, Anakin's doesn't look good enough to buy the new one, I'm not big on location sets so the Duel is out. I probably won't bother with the Advent either.

     


  4. Has anyone built ClydeChestnut's Ghost MOC? It looks great, but he says he hasn't actually built it, which makes me kind of wary.

     

    Also, how stable is BrickVault's AT-TE? I'm wanting to build an AT-TE, and this seems the best designed as well as having PDF instructions. I've read about the legs being really unstable, but others have said it's pretty stable.

    I will never understand why people would view a new UCS second Death Star as a bad thing. I just don’t get it. At all.

    It doesn't matter how long ago a set was released, all remakes are awful and unholy abominations, duh.

     

    Seriously though, I love remakes. Sure, sometimes they're worse than the original set, but it gives new fans the ability to get a set. There are certainly some sets that are remade too often (Snowspeeder, Landspeeder etc.), but a remake of the DSII is overdue IMO, and it's unfortunate that it's not happening.

    The scale of 75252 is 1/1454.5455 (1.1m/1600m), whereas the scale of my Venator is 1/1421.25 (0.8m/1137m) I didn’t realise this but the two are therefore very closely scaled! Hopefully I did my calculations correctly :)

    That's awesome. I checked them and you're right. I'm working on gathering the parts for your Venator, I'm really looking forward to it.
