[REVIEW] Wicked Brick - 75192 - Millennium Falcon Stand
Daniel Jackson replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Looks truly awesome, but I'd be a bit afraid to put such a huge set at a constantly angled position - there's constant sideways stress on the parts. It was never designed for that. -

The 75105 Millennium Falcon was still missing from my collection, so I just grabbed that one before prices will go up since it's been discontinued now. -

[PRESS RELEASE] 75192 - UCS Millennium Falcon 2017
Daniel Jackson replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Star Wars
What is the size of the area that the MF needs to stand on? (so basically, the size of the shape formed by the legs together) Or perhaps easier to answer: what would the diameter of a round table need to be for the MF to fit? It's ok if the body sticks out. -

I got a BB-8 and First Order Star Destroyer. I'm also going to get the Heavy Assault Walker very soon, and probably Kylo Rens TIE Also, I got a couple of really nice looking custom acrylic stands for some of my sets, so I can display them a bit above ground level. Really nice looking! -

That euro price is so unfair! But the set itself is a beauty! It will hurt a bit, but I'm really thinking about buying! -

Daniel Jackson replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I would really want to know too if there's a new normal MF coming, as I don't have one yet. I do have the midi-scale one though, it's cute. -

Got a second-hand mid-scale Millenium Falcon. Unfortunately, a few missing pieces. But luckily there's bricklink! -

Daniel Jackson replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in Special LEGO Themes
The stands were in the correct place, still the middle one would move. But I've fixed it! Such a stupid thing really. Turns out the table I was trying to display it on isn't perfectly flat. -
21309 NASA Apollo Saturn V (LEGO Ideas)
Daniel Jackson replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in Special LEGO Themes
With the rocket fully assembled (so all stages linked together) in horizontal position, the middle support stand isn't actually supporting anything - it can move freely along the rocket. The rocket just hovers above it by 1 or 2 mm. Anyone else seeing the same thing? -
Hmmm, 'not for inexperienced Lego Technic builders'. Do you mean this MOC or this set in general (the A and B models) ? I'm only just getting back into Lego. Currently I'm working on finishing my Saturn V. After that, I thought I wanted to try some Technic, so I ordered this set and I was already thinking about buying this C-model manual. But is it perhaps too much for a newcomer? I've just looked at the online manual for the A model and there sure a lot of steps! Is it also correct that all parts seem to be in one huge bag instead of being divided over multiple ones?

21309 NASA Apollo Saturn V (LEGO Ideas)
Daniel Jackson replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Still working on mine. I've almost finished the second stage, there really are some crazy techniques on the top part. I wanted to get an idea of the final height, so I tried connecting the first and second stage. But it wouldn't work, pieces just kept flying off when I pushed down the second stage to connect it. Some pieces were colliding. Only very slightly, but just enough to cause trouble. Turned out I misplaced some parts in an earlier step. -

I've started building mine, just about to finish the first stage. It still has some exposed parts, but it already feels so sturdy. -

Daniel Jackson replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in Special LEGO Themes
I'm going to start building it this weekend! My first big set, and at first I was thinking about mixing the bags for the challenge - but I'm really reconsidering now after actually seeing all the bags. -

Daniel Jackson replied to KimT's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Purchased and already built the General Grievous buildable figure. It was a lot more interesting to build than the Kenobi and Kylo figures I also purchased at the same time. With all the joint-type parts in the legs it actually took a while to get it to balance properly. -

From a local auction site. A consumer-to-consumer type thing. The Lego store indeed showed mid-end July shipping dates -

Daniel Jackson replied to KimT's topic in LEGO Star Wars
While waiting for my Saturn V to arrive (that's what got me interested in Lego again), I decided to purchase a small Star Wars set: the Darth Vader buildable figure. A nice and easy set, and I think it looks pretty cool. Next on my list is the Falcon I think. -

Well, I just purchased one! Should arrive in a few days. Don't have the time for building it yet though. But at the end of this month I have a week of vacation, can't wait! -

Daniel Jackson replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Thanks! This indeed looks like something that could easily become addicting. I've always been kind of 'fidgety' with my hands, so Lego seems the perfect answer to that. I'm already looking at some other sets. Some of those Star Wars ones look really nice. But first, this Saturn! I really hope local toy stores will have it in stock.
