Bley Harvest

Strange. I was able to purchase one by itself for $4.99. It doesn't seem that it is an issue with ringing through on the register. Maybe the policy is one per customer, whether it's free or purchased.

Love the posed legs Raskolnikov. Could you share higher res photo of just the legs and feet, or even a LDD of the construction? I'm trying to figure out exactly what you added or moved around. Thanks!

PaulPrime - I really like the way this came together! I especially love the new feet, the cockpit, leg greebling and the rounded rail. I already placed a Bricks and Pieces order based on some of the earlier images in this thread, and now I'm thinking I might need to do another!

I was thinking about the new Rogue One character Moroff. In the leak photos he appears to be just a white Chewbacca torso. Do you think this is how we ended up with "Christmas" Chewbacca in the advent calendar this year? Perhaps there were some production efficiencies needed to justify casting that part in white plastic?

I'll throw my support in for Cloud City/Cloud Car and Dagobah/Yoda's Hut sets. I also missed out on the last OT Millennium Falcon, so it would be cool if the next version Lego releases was covered in Mynocks and came with updated versions of the mini figures from 4504. It's amazing to me that ESB is so poorly represented in Lego form, with the obvious exception of Hoth. Perhaps kids these days don't know/like that movie?

Thanks everyone! PaulPrime - I think it would be possible. It's pretty tight toward the top of the cockpit - they built up the inner walls 5 plates high to attach to the frame, but there's a lot more room toward the bottom. I might give it a try, but then I'll need another Pilot!

Hi all. I recently dove back into collecting Lego (specifically Original Trilogy Star Wars) and subsequently I’ve been lurking around these forums a fair amount lately. I figured it was about time I introduced myself and thought this would be a good start. I never really had a dark ages, but I was a very casual collector for years - sometimes building stuff from my imagination and maybe picking up a set here and there that caught my eye (Batman, BTTF, Ghostbusters, Wall-E). Star Wars has always been a huge part of my life, but it felt like a slippery slope with so many Lego sets each year to choose from. I had picked up a few back in 1999/2000 when they first came out, but I was a student then and couldn’t afford the larger more elaborate ones that I really wanted. Over the past few months I’ve made up for a lot of lost time. I started with everything currently in stores, and through sites like eBay and Bricklink I’ve managed to pick up most OT sets from as far back as 2010 (around the time white pupils first started appearing). One of my all time favorite Star Wars vehicles is the AT-ST. I obviously missed out on the awesome UCS version, as well as the few less inspired versions that have appeared over the years. When I read there would be a new AT-ST to coincide with Rogue One I was excited, and when the first images started to appear I was generally happy with the look. There were a few unusual build choices, in my opinion, but I figured some of that could be the difference in time period from RO to ROTJ. I’ve kept all of my builds “official” thus far, but as primarily an OT collector, I really wanted a signature Endor AT-ST. After building 75153 for myself, I felt it was a good set that got most of the way there. I have a bunch of bricks in bins, so I ended up making a few modifications. Though subtle, I think they help to take an already very nice looking model and push it toward the classic AT-ST that I was looking for. Here’s what I changed: - First I swapped the “eyelids” with light blue grey 2x2 square flags. I’m not sure if this is a change in the Rogue One film, but these were the main offenders for me in terms of accuracy. - I moved the dark stone grey 1x1 with clip “toes” up to the roof and added the missing front rail, a spare light blue grey Bar 6L with Stop Ring that I had. - I changed the face plating, adding new 2x3 wedge plates under the eyes and a 2x4 tile in the center. I added a light blue grey 1x2 plate under the cheese wedge between the eyes to give the windows a bit more height. - Lastly, I added upside down 1x2 plates with clip on top as the new Toes. I’m not completely satisfied with these and will keep looking for other options, but they work for now. Again, nothing major, but I’m happy with it and I think it feels like it could be prowling the forest moon of Endor. I’ve seen so many cool MOCs and modifications on these forums, so I thought I would share one of mine with you all. Let me know what you think, and if you have any other suggestions for improvement. Thanks!
