Ras 74

Doesn´t it looks to broad, or to short? I might be wrong, have to study the movie a bit. Also want to see some more pics on this one. I think I make out that it will fit 2 Manga guards and one speeder in the back. Does anyone else see what it says? Edit:Never mind, looked closer at the pic from BB. -Ras-

Thanks everyone. Sorry to say, but the continue of this have to wait til next year. So keep looking here Freddie and the rest of you in the middle of Januari. @ CM: The black thing you brougt home ;) Guess it will wait another weekend :D -Ras-

Old enough for what buddy?To travel that great distance maybe. But convince Sinner to bring you -Ras-

Welcome to the boards! Nice to have great builders here so SlyOwl and Nadroj doesn´t let´s their great building skills gets to their heads -Ras-

EB is expanding all the time. Welcome to our friendly board! Nossotros somos los mejores Or something like that... -Ras-

It was not so much the cannons.But the extra deck he suddenly wanted to add. It had never been done before with a ship and double decks for canons. This great idea he got when the ship was built so far as to the first deck (that was supposed to be the only one). Then he was told it would be impossible to do so. He didn´t care. And we all know what happend to this beautiful ship, don´t we. He was one of the most coolest kings we ever had here, but he should have concentrated harder on war then trying to build stuff But he is considered one of the greatest commander of all time. Remember the 30 year war anyone?? Kim? -Ras-

It is a nice collection for sure. It is always great to see it all built up and put in display like that. I really need to get all my stuff as well -Ras-

This is one of the best IJ sets so far in my oppinon. So many great things in the set. Thanks for the great review -Ras-

Thanks alot. I will continue abit this weekend. Then there will be a paus until the beginning of the year. But if I make any progresses, I will post them. Oh, and don´t forget to check out CM´s little project -Ras-

Welcome to the boards! As said before, nice with more Scandinavians here. Looks like you have all spare time occupied for some time ahead :pir-skull: Looking forward to see a layout, and first stages of your town. -Ras-

Really a nice idea you had there. But maybe you should move all into your first post, and edit it? -Ras-

A mix match will be in it´s place as soon as I got those for sure. Nice that TLC gives us various colours. But why didn´t they made them light-bluich-grey from the beginning? Maybe to compensate that some things where grey, other black. Hope they will make them l-b-g as well. -Ras-

A very good "bignette". I so like that technique that you built the rock in. More and more adapts this technique. I have never tryed to buil like that myself, but it makes the MOC looks awesome. I´m really a big fan of MOC´s built entirely SNOTed. And then that it is SW is even better Great work And welcome to the board. -Ras-

So we had this "building-event" this weekend. I did build on the head, but still isn´t satisfied enough to let you see the WIP of it. But for all you interior geeks ( ) I built something. I figured out that there is place for 32 Snowtroopers on the top "floor" of the AT-AT. 8 seats per row, and 4 rows. I managed to press in 16 there so far, and is pretty satisfied with that. Could definatley make the same on the lower level, and then make it 32. Here are some pics of the interior in the main hall, uper and lower level. First the AT-AT empty: Then lower level: The top level outside of the AT-AT: Last all troops loaded: The seats will be replaced with light bluich grey seats later on. Comments are welcome. So what did CM build? It will be revealed next weekend. So stay tuned until then. -Ras-

Hi Apo! Long time no see ;) I think you can decide in february or mars by the latest. But we have to speak with Mr. Holodoc to see about that. Specially if you are staying over night. Would be nice to see you again. Hope everything is ok with you? -Ras-

@ JimButcher: Thanks alot That sure was super clear discription. Understood it perfectly. Are you a teacher? Didn´t expect you to draw it for me, it made my evening -Ras-

I know that.But since I

No not quite right.I said that 10 stores got 100 each (which turned out in the end that they didn´t got so many), that was just what we got, nothing about that beeing all that would be in the world. That Sweden should have been privileged as the only country was never a discussion. But since we got them in Sweden, all we can hope for is that Europe will have some more. How knows, let´s find out. The thing with Sweden getting them is odd though. Why not do this deal in Denmark instead where the toy was invented? But hey, I´m not complaining We got a fortress (Älvsborgs fästning) we need to get paid back for, so not more then fair!! -Ras-

I can give you the thing with Han Solo beeing a kind of pirate.But saying that alot of us are freaks?? You have to walk the plank you pirate -Ras-

It is really the same deal as for the C-3PO mini-figure. It was in a "polybag" in the set. You had to buy a set to get it. In the case of the 8017, it came outside the box. But you still had to buy a set! No one ever said it was just randomly handed out! There was no way of trying to bribe the guy to sell me one, or just hand me one. So in that concern, it could´ve just have been in the box. When it will be distributed later on, it will probably be in a set, or come next to it as it did in the case here in Sweden. -Ras-

Thanks alot everyone! There is several houers of building in this project by now, and I´m really satisfied with the result myself. It is not so far away from being mini-fig size. It is just a very little to small. But I´m totally ok with that. I´m extra pleased with the feets actually, but I really wonder what you mean here?Have you looked at the reference pics? I don´t really get what you mean by adding dishes, can you develope that abit more would be great. Appreciate more ideas really! Since there is a defined limit how to build the interior, it will not fit as many troops as I want´s to. But there will be an interior that will work as on the 4483. So I will be able to "slide" the whole interior of the middle part of both floors in and out. The interior of the back section will be permanent there. The same with what will be in the front. What will fit after the construction that will hold the head in place. The head will fit a good interior, there will be good space. Stay tuned for the weekend -Ras-

Thanks guys! Couldn

Really a great MOC. Also like the shape and colour sheme. Don´t have time to look so thoroughly today, but will for sure do it tomorrow. -Ras-

Thanks! Yes there will most definatley be an interior. Pretty much as the referenses shows. But there will be room for chairs, and Snowtroopers on the bottom level of the body as well. -Ras-

I haven´t really MOCed anything in a long time. This AT-AT I have been working for some time though. It has still some way to go until done. This weekend CM and I will have a group project to finnich it up even more. Looking forward to it. It was a long time ago now since we had our crazy weekend on Brännö, if anyone still remembers that weekends building. I wanted to capture the feeling from the original 4483. So I worked alot from that one. The goal was/is to make it simular, but better. I leave the djudgement to you guys and gals for that. Used this useful site to get referenses of the "real" one, click here. Some pics maybe? First out, just the lower part of the legs. Then comparison picture with the original from LEGO. Finally cruching a rebel Snowspeeder. Will post more pics on sunday on the updates. So, comments are welcome people. -Ras-
