I just brought the Lego Death Star for myself at Christmas, and noticed how the packaging and manual is in fact different from the original 2008 build judging by the comments.
From seeing the original reviews gone are the "play station shapes" on the boxes and also the bags are infact numbered. Looking at the manual and comparing it to the Lego online manual that too is different. Now with images of what bags to open and when it seems, also a guide telling NOT to mix bag numbers together example open bag 1 and 2 together but only open bags 1 first.
I have to admit looking at it scares me and just didn't realise how big this thing is. I would like to do a thread of me building it but I'm sure this has already been done to death......
