Top center isn't finished yet. There will be circular shaped top like on millenium falcon, since on reference pictures on wookipedia it looks the same...more or less. I'll have to redo cockpit again, it doesn't look good at all. Would he easier if the cockpit is the same as on MF and rest of the YT series...but desgn is different so I'll have to be extra creative to get it right. I'm planing also to replace 99% of dark gray tiles with light gray ones..i was planing to get rusty-old look, but I overdid it...also I'll play some more with dark red tiles to get better pattern. Still lot of work....

IMHO its good that they don't do it in chrome anymore. Old chrome hilts after a couple of month of play/use look like nothing, chrome color goes away and you have really ugly destroyed hilt. They do look nicer when new...but....

Set: 75037 Year:2014 Minifigs: 5 Pieces: 156 Price: payed it cca. 20 Euro Box art - nice, 1 instruction book. Minifigs: 91st Reconnaissance Corps trooper - perfect print, lot of details on the front and back. This is the only special minifig in the set. Lot of ppl will thing this is commander Neyo - and they would be both right and wrong - since Neyo has the same armor as any other 91st clone, since he doesn`t use custom Kama/paldron or markings to separate him from the rest of his unit. Anyway minifig is perfect. B1 battle droid x 2 - standard B2 SBD x 2 - standard Other stuff: What to say....hm... STAP is cool, one can always use another one in this army of droids. BARC speeder is like rest of BARC`s Lego produced except this one is full of stickers and has ugly gap to fit new shooter infront of controls. Something with new plants on it - don`t know what is it, I guess this sould be some baricade or something...except for new plants that are cool rest is just a small bunch of useless bricks. To be honest this set should be called extended droid battlepack since it is exactly that - battlepack with 1 extra figure and 1 extra vehicle. Its overpriced for 4 droids that we get everywhere. 91st clone is great figure, but for 20 Euro....too much....

You ppl do understand that in all BPs vehicles/something are just there so that lego can say its "playset - look there are bricks and not just figs and we are not breaking exclusive hasbro licence for action figures stating that only hasbro can relese figs" ? So vehicles/something in BPs are supposed to be bad, inacurate and flimsy..since there are just necessary evil so that we could all have nice figs in good quantitys. And now my opinion on sets... Kashyyk bp - 41th elite corps in camo - love it. Utapai bp - 212th attack battalion/2nd airborn company - both paratroopers and regular troops - you have to love it. Death star bp - Imperial gunners/ royal guards - its good, but I would prefere imperial navy troopers instead of royal guards. Battle on saleucami - this looks like expanded droid battlepack with wierd barc speeder...This will cost too much for nothing special. Clone trooper is good but more or less everything else is just droid battlepack... Anakins jedi interceptor - nothing new, if the price will be normal this is ok set. Nothing new or special but for someone who missed last ones this is good set. V-wing - it looks smaller than the last ones, whitch are too big, but boy they really missed the shape of this one. Bad set. Wheele bike - great one. Looks good from all angles. Shame they didn't put boga. I would gladly give extra $$ for it. Vulture droid - looks good, nothing special but good.nemodian is greaaaat! Droid gunship - best set of the wave - can't find anything bad about it. At-ap - good really good Av7 cannon - bad set with awesome minifigs! Come on lego guys did you even see av7 cannon in cw movie and than in cw series? Need glasses? Its not like its 2 sec vehicle. Bad. Bad. Bad. Its not like av7 has some hard to do curves, special out of this world shape or anything.the hardest part of cannon are legs and easy part is cannon itself, and lego menage to do a good legs and bad upper part... Box art is good. Reminds me of older sets.

Review: 9488 Elite Clone Trooper & Commando Droid Battle Pack
Davor replied to Brickington's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Great review. One thing only...ARF is not a wolfpack member - he is part of Rancor Battalion, under different command. You can see ARF troopers under the wolf's command in cw " mercy mission" and they look different from rancor battalion.- 5 replies

Are Star Wars MOC Builders becoming a dying breed?
Davor replied to HJR-Holland's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Ok...my opinion... First sw builder mostly buy only sw sets - you get perfect minifigs and small amount of expensive bricks (€/brick ratio) that are usualy useless for real mocing - on top of that you get some kind of halfgood model that looks ok for display ( althou usualy most of official models are unrealistic - too small/ too big) ... .... So what happens.....you have tons od starwars sets and you spend too much € but in reality you can't build decent 32*32 moc with all that bricks you have...so you keep all you clone battlepack "walkers"/ oversized jedi starfighters/undersized stardestroyers/bizzar wampa "caves" on you shelf and confort yourself that you have 1000000000€ worth colection of bricks and minis ...but in reality its 90% useless bricks that just fill the space in you house.... But whan you are not only into sw...lets say you are also in castle...you get far better amount of usefull basic gray bricks, tiles etc...also you have some brown ones..some tiles....some...........and look at the miracle ..you can acctualy build moc that looks good... This is the problem. -
this is how diorama mocs should look like! great job! perfect!

It's called friendly suggestion And for example here are quiet good arguments why this is pointless a) you can`t change anything b)Lucas&Lego don`t care about couple of guys bitchin on forum about minifigs since huge majority of ppl (and there customers) are buying sets like crazy and just don`t care about 3 more lines on minifig head and 2 more dots in eyes
-
what a pointless discusion. It would be better for you guys to concentrate on building big quality sw mocs instead of bitch about couple of printed lines on minifig head.

wicked!

Hi, I really like to build unusual vehicles from SW univers, so I was watching CW mini series from 2001 and spoted in "Chapter 24" unidentified Coruiscant freighter that had role in the show (Jedi were fighting Grievous during his abduction of Palpatin on top of this freighter). Year ago there was Wookipedia page about this ship, but they removed it for some reason and now its just called in the chapter synopsis "cargo repulsor barge"...shame since its quiet a cool ship and deserves some info. I was building it in proportion to minifigs, so it should be quiet close to scale. It is imposible to figure exact scale since there is no info on size and cartoon also has wierd camera views and in one scene ship is smaller in the next scene just second later looks bigger compaired to characters - quiet bizzar animation. I used cca. 3000 bricks for ship + landing pad. Also I used glow in the dark bricks for engine exaust and integrated lego batery box with light so that the windows glow blue as seen in the cartoon, but coudn`t take proper picture of it. More photos here: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/317344 hope you like ti! plz leave a comment! p.s. I acctualy build last week first version of this ship that was cca 1,2m long, but figured that it was wayyy too big and scaled it down to present version.
-
it took me cca. 3h to built.

great job! :thumbup:
-
Unfortunately I never got my hands on Magna Guards.So no :( But would love to do it.
-
regarding new padme.... If you look minifig from a far it doesn`t look that bad
-
massiveeee ! great job!
-
after TCW ends we are getting new tv series (non animated) called Star Wars: Underworld thats deals in timeframe from Order 66 to A New Hope.
-
great build! love the back wall. but isn`t it a bit too small? I see you had to remove back antena from the model to menage to fit fighter inside the box.
-
