    Amazing mods

    i just think that the top does not fit because it is too large for this cockpit size

    otherwise the interior is impressive

    and the wings are a bit too close to the cockpit 

    nice work

    it’s rare to use robot arms like this in MOCs

    i really like how the controls fall right in the hands of the pilot and the dark / red atmosphere you recreated

    I already built the Tie outland, very happy with it :)

    I am waiting for moving to my new home to see how much space I have left to build more ;)

     

    btw I hope you will have time to look at the junction for the "wing arms" ;) thanks

     

     

    the Emporers Royal Guard and the Mining Guild fighter really have something special, the glossy red and yellow really work well with the shapes

    Hi there

    Just wondering if someone here has used the new Lego road plates as hangar or landing ground for SW ships instead of tiles...

    I just got the shuttle tyridium and I own a small army of stormtroopers (50).

    I was thinking about buying these new road plates, put the shuttle on it and add regular plates on the sides to put the stormtroopers with the emperor's arrival.

    I don't know if it's a good idea and if it would be cheaper than covering baseplates with 2x4 tiles...

    I've been seeing for a long time in ebay, instagram, facebook, forums, this type of translucent and monochromatic figures of Vader, C3po, Obi Wan, ... that "supposedly" are made by night shifters in a lego factory.... someone knows 100% sure what their origin is?

    Mate, seriously, even Stevie Wonder could see the difference with real LEGO minifigs :iamded_lol:

    advice needed

    just bought the shuttle tydirium but i will display it with the emperor's arrival so i won't need the original minifigs coming with the shuttle

    any idea about the price i should set for the 5 minifigs ? (Leia is missing her cape)

    should i pick  the price of each minifig on bricklink as used and add them up and add a small discount for the whole set of figs ?

    I know Lego has a purchase limit of 3 for any set, but here's my question:

    I bought 3 of the 501st Legion sets around New Years, and I want to order 3 more. Will they cancel my order, or has enough time passed for them to not care?

    There are alternative sites/stores which have them in stock from time to time, but ordering from the source would be much more convenient.

    there are plenty of youtubers going to Lego stores and coming back home bragging about buying tons of the same sets and Lego does not prevent from buying multiple units in store but only on their website...

    so, I guess if you want to build an army of troopers, one must buy from any other website but lego.com :(

    I had to mix purchases from second hand websites, bricklink and retail stores to get my 50 stormtroopers just because i could buy them from lego.com

    last year i had a representative over the phone and she said: "sir, this is odd, why do you need 50 stormtroopers ???" :hmpf_bad:

    I also adapted the inside and put so far 5 seats but considering 6. The only detail i'm struggling with is how to put the machine gun inside, it's held and often falling down because the piece is a bit fragile, maybe I have to rethink the gun (even if i really like the tripod style).

    If i cannot fit perfectly inside the walker, I will put it in the ground when building a small Hoth battle diorama.

    FYI i have used the 2 black plates above the seats to attach snowtrooper backpacks and guns, so the snowtroopers are seating with empty hands

    Sorry for the very late reply. I just placed my last BL order for this project. In total, including S&H I spent between 200 and 250 euro. Much cheaper than you can usually find used copies for. Added bonus: 99% of the parts where in new condition, so hopefully the whites will be as close as possible.

    I'll post again as soon as the final parts show up and I can finally start building.

    oh gosh

    i'll wait then

    it's not like it was urgent so far just because the new one is coming that I have to rush buying the old one
