    Fantastic destroyer all around! Great presentation and photography as well. • Impressed with the thought behind the design - from the fold back panels to the hidden carry handle. Very clever. • Your persistence paid off with the main drive engine design. Great detail surrounding the drive engines as well. The disc shooter bricks work really well for detail, too. • The stand design is pefect - simple and functional. All this with a full interior. What's not to like??! As you mentioned, this is a perfect option when display space is limited. Nicely done, thanks for posting this!

    Thanks FZ ...everyone check out Evil Kirk and Quarrie's Workshop on Rebrickable

    Thanks joebiewan. This mod is a mash-up of various ideas. The cockpit redo is nearly all from Quarrie's Workshop mod (link provided above). I re-shaped the folding wings following his mod as well. The dorsal stabilizer I just filled in after adding the 3 fwd inverted 1x2 slopes and the additional 1x5x6 large slope. The engine exhaust is slightly modified so the trans-light blue tiles are recessed. Other than that, the fuselage remains unchanged - including the interior. I would definitely recommend this set if you're a fan of this vehicle, as the fuselage design is brilliant and tough as nails - wouldn't change a thing in that regard.

    Tweaked the proportions and adjusted to my liking. Credit to Quarries Workshop on Rebrickable for the folding wing and cockpit changes.

    I admire your patience - Lambda shuttles are my kryptonite. I have a couple 75459 copies that were just delivered to my work address and I probably won't stop with just two. I like Quarries Workshop mod (now available on Rebrickable) and I'll mess around with some of those changes. Congratulations, btw, that's an impressive accomplishment. What is your field of study?

    ...I cannot disagree, with Andor being an exception. Case in point, I caught the Solo movie while channel surfing on archaic network television last night (parent's house for the New Year). I found myself watching it to the end and actually enjoying the experience. Apparently I have softened a bit on my opinion of this film...didn't see that coming. I think Ehrenreich and Glover were pretty well cast for their roles. I liked Chewie's performance and Woody Harrelson shockingly fit into the SW universe better than I remember. Underrated film in retrospect? I'm kinda leaning that way. ...also the 75219 AT-Hauler and the two landspeeders were pretty cool sets from solid action sequences.

    "Oh...it's...beautiful!" EK, I cannot repeat it enough - you have achieved greatness here...right down to the ultra Luxe display stand! You are among an elite handful of MOC designers who presented a creation that immediately inspired me to begin gathering parts. In other news, I changed my mind about the interior - I went for the fleet model with aft weapons locker. Due to a small error in a Bricklink order I'm missing a DBG 1x3x3 door so the 'refresher' currently has no privacy But the transparent yellow round tile made me laugh! I'll make a point to post more photos as I go - your design deserves all the press it can get.

    ...Christmas arrived a few days ahead of schedule! This design is incredible - I'm at a loss for words. A few interior tweaks to accomplish, more photos to follow....

    "...I tell you, this shuttle will be operational as planned."

    I like the executive interior so I'm leaning towards the Emperor's version - with the fancy stand, of course - but I also like small bits of color variation on the stabilizers. I might ignore the official versions and do a hybrid of the two just cuz I prefer the look. Surely the Emperor had a spare shuttle or two on hand. My completion goal is earlier than Spring but work always impedes. I will double my efforts!

    DOIN' IT!! Instructions purchased, first parts order already completed...now to sift through piles of inventory to see what I have and what I need. My 10212 will also be torn apart soon. This will take a while...my guess is early Spring for completion. Building is the easy part - it's the planning, printing, sorting and sourcing that takes all the time. I can't even imagine all the hours you invested to DESIGN the damn thing! Forever grateful. "Bring my shuttle..."

    [Palpatine] Exxxxcellent [/Palpatine] Staggeringly cool...the wait is over! My next project.

    Great design for sure! I really like the overall look, and yes, it fits in very well with the general SW aesthetic in my opinion. It seems logical that this vessel would be among different designs - like the sail barge - to take advantage of strong planetary winds in remote regions of the galaxy where energy sources are more scarce than core worlds. I particularly like how the foils retract - presumably for storage in a big hangar. I would consider building this myself if instructions were ever created for purchase. Fantastic work, thanks for posting!
