Color might not be as accurate, but I really like that one. Screwdriver elements just make great micro/mini guns wherever you use them. If you want the red tip, then as BEAVeR said, you could use cut up flex tubing. I don't think it'll fit onto a bar (At least not easily; I've never tried it. But it's hard enough getting the brown rubber flex tubing from the Creator drink mixing set onto something the width of a bar, let alone a soft plastic normal flex tube.), but it'll definitely fit onto the end of the screwdriver.

All right, guys, I've let this slide long enough: EB is an AFOL site, and since our site is directed towards adults, we have standards and rules governing your use of English when you post. I know some of you have been warned about this before.This is what you use at the beginning of a sentence or a proper noun: an uppercase letter (not a lowercase letter) This is an acceptable amount of question marks or exclamation points: ? or ! (not ???????????? or !!!!) This is the number of periods/stops in an ellipsis: ... (not ......) These are what are placed at the end of a complete sentence: . or ? or ! (not nothing) These are acceptable methods for expressing your emotions: an adjective or an emoticon (not 'Lol' or other forms of 'texting speech') As our Member Guidelines say: Thank you.

I realize that this MOC probably qualifies as a timeless classic, but the topic is over a year old. Please don't bump a topic just to say that you like the MOC. Thanks!

Thanks for these reviews! Beautiful pictures, and very subtle, excellent mods.

Oh, I gotcha. I didn't even know the flick-fires came in red. The red pin I used never appeared in a set; it was likely a prototype. At the time, there were four or five for sale on BL. I decided to use it because I thought it looked better, but if someone couldn't find one, then it would look almost just as good in grey.

The guns look a little fat and stubby this way. I'd take out the white pin. I know the guns don't bulge that much at the tip on the 'real' thing, and that removing the white pins will make your model's guns significantly thicker at the tip than along the barrel, but I think it'll be worthwhile in order to make (or at least give the illusion of) a skinnier gun.

That's enough. You've been warned about this before; this style of posting is not acceptable on EB. Let's have a chat.

Nice work, Nom! Definitely looks like it could be an official set, and you've accomplished your goal of lending a more solid look to the most recent of TLG's iterations. One thing I'd change is that it really needs more of an inwards slope going down along the sides of the 'head'. That's one of the things that the '09 version had and the previous two didn't, and which really helped that official version to look less blocky.

The New York Toy Fair typically allows the majority of the sets shown there to be photographed by all attendees in a close-to-finalized state.

Welcome to EB.

You can't put a 2x2 dish right onto a 2x2 round; you'll have to put a 1x1 stud between them.

In regards to the alignment issue, it happens because somewhere in there, there's a piece that's somehow been rotated just ever so slightly (Probably on the starboard edge near the stern, would be my guess.), but since LDD will let you attach something if you get 'close enough' using the Hinge tool, then it lets you do it, and eventually adding more parts magnifies the problem until you end up with what you see there. If you can remember using the Hinge tool somewhere, then I'd remove that section and anything attached to it and reconstruct it for starters, otherwise, the only thing I can suggest is to pull off chunks of the build near that area and put them back and see if that fixes it.

Are we really starting the OT vs. PT vs. CW debate again so soon?

Which mode of LDD are you using? It shouldn't happen with the non-Extended mode. Which bricks are the ones in question? (LDD and TLG, by the way, use a different color categorization system than BL does, so also check this chart and make sure you have the colors right.)

We have the Future Star Wars Sets topic for this type of discussion, even if they're phrased as questions. General Questions is for the little questions that have nowhere else to go. Moving......and done.

Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2-D2 and C-3PO. Very borderline canon, but I saw bits of them on VHS and then a lot of them after the '04 compilation DVD release of Episodes 5-8 and 10-13. That was one of my first exposures to the EU.

I repeat.

Oh, hey, I hadn't known about this ship before — it looks a lot like the Gladiator-class that I remember so well from watching Droids as a kid. I look forward to seeing your progress.

Interesting idea. It looks too skinny to me, but I suppose that that's a limitation of the parts available to you from those two sets. I've changed the title from 'MOC' to 'WIP' since this isn't complete yet.

My stance: at least they made a very decent effort to include a large alt model, and it was an obscure but memorable piece of canon. I wish they'd still do that.
