    Excellent review Bob as ever. All the grey does not work for me and I can't get past it, especially on the inside of the wings. I'm trying to like the ship but....perhaps once some of our excellent EB modders get to work something good may come out of it....

    Sweet - just ordered me a pair of those tasty arms...

    Exciting and can't wait to see the next iteration, I love seeing the magic of people's WIP and thinking, especially when the end models are so awesome.

    Yup agree with KevinMD on both his points, a decent make up brush works wonders (buy new though...may seem obvious but just in case), I've a mix of sets with and without stickers (I've never been able to bring myself to attempt the x-wing canopy sticker) but where I can I've tried to either bricklink a spare set of genuine stickers for those sets I have out permanently for any potential replacement need or as KevinMD comments bought replacements from other sellers (or where I have BL'd an older UCS I've had to use those anyway). I rotate all my sets in terms of placement and any impact of light - I try to keep sets out of direct sunlight but even so I move them around every few months - some of the older sets stickers are now starting to look a bit aged, but I prefer to leave them be - if they get that bad then Ill probably break the set down, give the bricks a gentle wash and then use the replacement stickers on the rebuild (I've done the same process on BL'ing older UCS sets).

    Hi ArrowBricks, I've bought quite of lot of genuine lego sticker sheets from bricklink, and so far never had any issues, So long as you read the description from the sellers and they have good feedback you should be fine. Worth sometimes checking other sites for sellers who create their own stickers for sets, the quality is usually very high and sometimes its cheaper than trying to source a genuine sticker sheet for the rarer sets.

    As a UK person who wont be seeing anything Disney+ streamed until its launched next year I welcome the use of the spoiler tag - that way I can choose to see and read anything Mandalorian or not until is actually available to watch. I'm always keen to see new sets but prefer to avoid the associated story line discussions where I can.

    I love all things Venator and WIP progress pics and this is so going to be a thing of impressive awesomeness when its done....this beast is so going into my Lego Build bucket list...

    I suspect the juniors set will use a sticker for the nose detail.

    Excellent thanks for the review, sharing your thoughts and taking the time to do good pics and the comparisons. I'm of that age that I prefer written reviews than videos on sets so thanks again great job. I love A-wings and have all the issued kits and a lot of MOCs, so this is definitely coming my way come Crimbo.

    I decided to get two clear and two trans-black with my last BL order so I can swap them and see which looks better - I figured the clears would not look that good but they do work well....thanks again for your great MOC and instructions.

    WIP pic - I had enough for a second model so I figured pending the Red version instructions coming out I'll just do a colour swap (man those wedges are hard to get in the UK in red). Waiting for the dark blue macaronis (they don't yet come in red yet which is a shame given all the less common colours they are available in already), white skis for the landing gear (DBG at the moment), replacement canopies and the odd tile here and there (top guns for example, more white macs)... Great build, and look so good in real bricks....I can see me having a whole range of them....green, orange, grey.....

    Looks like a sticker but not one I've seen before - one for Gumbinger to answer please.
  13. Hold0511
    Instructions bought, 90% of the parts in, just waiting for those macaronis and wedges to arrive and the building can commence....

    To be honest I find polishing only buffs out scratches - once a white piece has gone yellow I replace it with new or good condition replacements from bricklink, especially when they are decent prices. I've tried various cleaning materials and they either remove the coating and leave it whiter but dull or erode the surface too much.

    UK S@H order placed, added the double VIP points and BofH promo all well and good - sadly its on back ordered status already....

    UK S@H order placed just (damn work getting in the way) - its on backorder status already....
  17. Hold0511
    I think its only available in reddish brown and dark brown - I assume the difference in the image you show is perhaps reflecting its the dark brown colour?
  18. Hold0511
    Awesome thanks - that seals the deal on having on each of these lovely ships.
  19. Hold0511
    May I ask please if each colour build is a separate set of instructions? or will there be one purchase for all three colour schemes - thanks.

    It may be easier to go to Ebay or sellers websites and get a set of replacement stickers - I've used a couple of shops a number of times (e.g. Zacparis on ebay and ultimatecollectorstickers direct) either for replacements or when I have bricklinked a UCS or larger old set and the second hand prices have been crazy - quality is usually top notch.
  21. Hold0511
    I'd back this - I love your and others MOCs but after a while its a bit of a pain that they stay at the top - saying that I know its a first world SW forum minor issue...
  22. Hold0511
    Wow great start and I echo the comment on the engines - looking fantastic - I can't wait to see what it looks like fully snot'ed as your original was a great looking beast.
  23. Hold0511
    Dang loving those gloves....had to get the first batch on order for my phase 1 clones....
  24. Hold0511
    The promo set MF SWMF-1 is only 20 pieces - worth a look

    Looking very mean and menacing.....so now I'll need to add this to your T-70 X-wing to balance it out nicely.... Can't wait for instructions for this dark baby.
