Ah, ok. The dock part confused me. I thought they were almost identical? The actual product looks more colorful since the idea is a render, so it has dInsert other media arker colors and is missing a few details that ended up in the final product.

Which set is that?

In what way? Classic castle sets were simple and focused on gameplay, be it with figures or rebuilding of your castles. I expect this should be a more detailed set with a display focus?

Looks cool and fun! I love the wooden part and the fact you even managed to squeeze some interior detailing.

It does look cool. It's kinda strange to see that in ideas, though. A lego car, what an idea! lol

I love it, I'd buy it, Lego will never make it :)

The terrain makes it look real :)

Wonderful, so many things to like.

It would be fine even if you made the exact same ship and credited the author, just wouldn't make sense to post it

What seems to be the problem?

Nothing spectacular. The giraffe one might catch my interest when I see a better image.

Very playful!

I'm looking at a tractor from this set on my desk right now, and I just have to temporarily raise this topic from the dead to echo the conclusion of the reviewer: who made this! How? It is incredible! I always knew you can do amazing things with enough time and enough bricks, but this is comparatively small and does not involve any advanced methods, techniques or special bricks. It's just a crazy skilled and tasteful build. It really evokes the feeling of a an actual massive tractor and at the same time it invites you to play with it, it is somehow realistic and toy-like at the same time, completely disregarding the fact those two things are usually at odds. Lego usually captures their sets from the best angle for the box art, but this one looks great from almost any angle. All the way from shaping to the incredible color composition, this thing should be in a museum somewhere. I really should put it away somewhere as having it on my desk makes me look at it too much instead of working. I'll grow an extra thumb just to give this set three thumbs up!

But some of them are important... license plate, for example.

More stickers. "Great".

Words haven't been invented to describe how amazing this looks :)

I don't mind how much I've paid for them, but would be a waste of an epic opportunity if it didn't connect :)

Amazing details. Someone should make a space medical drama in this ship :)

Supported. This is tremendous work... super detailed, cute, and opens too, what more can one want! I second the opinion about the great interplay of colors.

Wait, how do we know that? :)

Looks small next to the Barracuda, but much more appropriately sized compared to the Barracuda Bay :)

I love how lush this feels :)

So... LEGO Ideas seems to have so little value at this point that it's mostly a waste of time for anyone except LEGO themselves. The designers put their heart and soul into amazing creations, almost none of them get picked and we're left with safe, boring choices that might end up nerfed before the final release. It's almost as the "idea" in the ideas was to antagonize your fans and continually deteriorate what little trust remains. The 25 ideas that got rejected had so many great sets that I wouldn't mind too much if none of my favorites got picked as they were really in some fierce competition. So what? Pick 5 sets... hell, pick 4, pick 3... there's bound to be at least 1 I'll think looks good enough to want to display it, that brings that sense of wonder only LEGO can that would elicit a: "whoa man is that a LEGO castle/spaceship/rocket/pirate whatchamcallit!?" Instead we got a globe. Which looks cool. And I'm interested in how it's built. It's a really cool idea by itself. Which I would never buy. Nor do I know anyone that would. Why? You probably either already have a badass globe of some kind or you're not interested in them. And what kind of reaction could you hope to get out of that? "My dear sir, may I enquire if the globe on the shelf behind you really is made out of LEGO as it seems from where I am standing? -Indeed it is, my old chap. -Splendid. -Let us drink to that and all future globes to come. -Oh surely not more? -Yessiree. For, you see, the globe is not just a plain model, it is symbolic. It speaks of our desire to learn, explore, even conquer, if you will. -Yeah, but it's a bit ****, innit?"

The way to disagree is to bring actual insight or do as objective as possible analysis that would reveal the situation not to be as clear cut as it might have seemed inside a particular bubble, not to have your argument seem absurd from the get go :) SW has had many more sets than classic space, they have come many years after and had many years and iterations through which they could improve. SW in general has pretty much taken our entire culture hostage at this point and countless man hours and millions of dollars have been spent into making it a meme and a part of our lives as ordinary and expected as washing our teeth in the morning, yet so many people, given the circumstances, are talking about roughly made sets a few folks made starting more than 40 years ago. That says something.
