NOOOOO! Who let that moron into the armory???? 🤣
-
Thanks again mate - I was tempted to put the yellow tile on the floor (as stormies tend to miss) but I didn't want to overdo it
-
Ahhhh it makes me so proud to see my builds in other peoples displays and houses! I'm really glad you're happy with the finished product + the display stand looks as Imperial as I hoped it would! Impressive, most impressive
-
I HOPE SO LOWLEAD, FOR YOUR SAKE. THE EMPEROR IS NOT AS FORGIVING AS I AM!
-
Original fleet shuttle, or Emperor's version? I look forward to seeing it in Spring!
-
Thanks very much! It really needed a fancy-looking stand :) Thank you!! Lowlead: DO IT.
-
Thanks! ...and yes, it took her 18 hours with no help from me (apart from finding the pieces for each step) split into 3 sessions <3

Hi thanks for your comment! I actually started with the cockpit in 2023 and if I couldn't get that right, I wasn't going to bother with the rest of it lol. It's the "face" of the ship and (to me) it was the most important part to make accurately. Dimensions - a lot of people are asking this and I've put full-spec on my Rebrickable post, although I'm not sure if links to that are allowed here... anyway I'll paste some specs for you below with comparisons to the UCS model that I found online. Height on display stand: Evilkirk 93cm. UCS 71cm. Width in flight mode: Evilkirk 88.4cm. UCS 57cm. Landed height: Evilkirk 57cm. UCS 48cm. Landed width (to gun tips): Evilkirk 42cm. UCS: Unknown. Length (front to rear): Evilkirk 52cm. UCS Unknown. Weight: Evilkirk (according to Studio) 4.37kg. UCS 3.9 to 4kg If anyone's got the UCS version and can fill in the 2 "unknown" measurements in cm, that would be much appreciated!! :D

Thanks!! Yes, I just can't imagine Palps chilling with his homies lol

Thank you so much - making it fit the correct amount of minifigures and 'not looking like Lego' were always top priority for me! I'm glad you like it :)

The Emperor's Private Shuttle, 5347 parts. For those who missed my other post with the standard Lambda Class Shuttle - I've made 3 different sets of instructions and all buyers have access to all 3 designs: The Emperor's shuttle + a standard Lambda Class Shuttle + and empty shuttle with no interior. The main external differences that marked His Imperial Majesty's personal ship from standard Fleet shuttles, were the simple grey stripe that runs down the middle of the cockpit and the lack of any colouring on the wings and dorsal fin. Inside it, however, is a bit of a mystery. The only scrap of info I could find, described there being "2 rows of plush purple seating"... now I doubt very much that the Emperor of the whole Galaxy ever sat in such 'bus style' seats, so I gave him his own private office at the rear and left the purple seating for his evil-looking advisors/courtiers who we saw disembarking from the Emperor's shuttle on the 2nd Death Star. I've also designed 2 display stands for showing the ship in flight mode - both are FREE downloads available on my Rebrickable page. Lastly, I’d just like to add that personally, this was always more than just a Lego creation. It's a Lego brick-built replica of what is, to me, the single most elegant and beautiful ship in all of Star Wars. This is something that I've dreamed of making since I was a kid in the 70's - and now it's time to share it with others. Whether you’re just here to admire the pics, or if you’re planning to build it for yourself, I really do hope that you’ll enjoy my dream build.

The ultimate Imperial Shuttle Lego MOC: The Sienar T-4a Lambda Class. Two years of meticulous building, design, redesign and re-build - and now she's finally here! 3 different sets of instructions have been prepared for this ship - and every buyer will have access to all 3 models - available on Rebrickable. The Imperial Lambda Class Shuttle, 5420 parts. These elegant transports were the workhorse of the Empire; initially used for transporting Imperial officials and officers around the galaxy - and in later days as these shuttles became more common, they were often used as simple troop transports and even light cargo ships. Lord Vader himself was known to use a Lambda Class Shuttle - and this was also the same design as the famous Shuttle Tydirium, which was stolen by the Rebels and used to transport the Endor strike team in Return of the Jedi. There are various floor-plans out there for this ship, but I chose the official design which makes most sense to me + it was the layout used in the "Incredible Cross Sections" book which featured this ship. It's as close as I could get it whilst using Lego, although you will have to allow me some 'poetic license' here and there :) I've also designed an "empty" display version, with no interior and 4817, perfect just for display or modding with your own interior design! ...and then, there's the Emperor's private shuttle, which I'll be posting separately There's a choice of 2 display stands for showing the ship in flight mode - both are FREE downloads available on my Rebrickable page. Lastly, I’d just like to add that personally, this was always more than just a Lego creation. It's a Lego brick-built replica of what is, to me, the single most elegant and beautiful ship in all of Star Wars.

Hmmmm, if only I had a Cloud City Boba!
-
Thank you sir!
-
Thank you! ...and a little bit cheaper lol Yeah I just had to get Mr Big-Purple-Hat in there lol Thank you very much!

Lacking the Imperial Credits for the official full-size model? I present to you the mini-desktop version! A great gift idea without breaking the bank and your marriage!... also a cute "consolation" for those who wanted "the big one" but couldn't raise the funds or get permission. 224 small, easy to obtain parts Sits nicely against a wall (the back is flat) Shuttle detaches + wings fold Display stand ensures it won't roll off your desk! Probably looks really cool next to the full-size version, but I don't know, because I aint buying it! Instructions £1 on Rebrickable
-
Thanks! Yes, instructions are being made at the moment - approx 5400 pieces with a fully detailed interior... if you have instagram, I'm evilkirklego there so you can see more pics. It's pretty huge lol -
Thanks very much matey!
-
Thanks! Haha thank you very much! ☺️
-
Thank you! Thanks very much - currently working on the instructions and they'll be on Rebrickable when ready... but first I'll be using my wife as a 'test builder' as she's a total Lego noob. If she can build it without help, then we're good to go!
-
Thanks, I'd call it true minifigure scale, but there seem to be many different ideas on exactly what that should be lol... It's "I need to follow the most logical floorplan available whilst tryin to make it match the official cross-section book image and fit 6 guys in the cockpit + 20 guys in the back with room for the Emperor to walk out from underneath the cockpit without banging his Imperial head, scale"
-
Thank you all very much guys!
-
Just a few pics to show the immense scale of my Imperial Shuttle MOC! Honestly, you don't know how much effort it took to hold up this big beauty with one hand - but I think I managed to hide the struggle lol I'll be posting a full gallery with plenty of interior and exterior pics very soon
-
Heyy thanks very much! I have a lot of admiration for Mr Banana's skills... I remember when his Falcon first came out, he just blew everyone's minds 😵
-
Thanks! I'm all about the details
