  1. Back for my favourite event of the year! My ideal Christmas tree is a big blooming pohutukawa, the Christmas tree of New Zealand, with a sunny summer Christmas on the beach beneath it!
  2. I agree it wouldn't be wise to release two sets of the same kind of ship in a single wave, but at least they could be spread one wave apart, like the new X-wings. I guess the strict schedule of TFA sets has thrown things off a bit, but the idea still stands that collectible things should be released more or less together, like the whole AOTC/ROTS/TFA waves have done. For example, the carbon freezing chamber set isn't great by itself and certainly isn't top of my wishlist, but if they decide to release more Cloud City add-ons at a later date, I'll probably wish I bought it to display with the rest.. We shouldn't be punished for not guessing the future correctly by being made to pay huge mark-ups on sets that have just gone out of production. Just to avoid clogging up this busy thread for those who aren't interested.. kinda like your pointless post
  3. They did the same with Anakin and Obi-Wan's jedi Starfighters, and they'll no doubt do the same with another Cloud City set once the Carbon Freezing Chamber set has moved on.. I don't understand it.. People want to buy/collect sets that go together. Unless it was delayed as I think was mentioned, and was due for release this time last year.. would the AT-AT still have been around then? Either way, the Hoth Attack set seems like a pointless accompaniment for the UCS set, when an extended Echo Base would have been much more desirable, or something more Empire-focused. I guess it's meant to be an add-on you can buy multiples of, like the set that was released alongside Helm's Deep to extend the wall.. Here's roughly what I hope for the minifigs if the Death Star is just a remake.. (with Vader's new helmet, Stormie printing more like the FO troops, etc.) But like others have said, hopefully the 'final duel' part will be left out since it now a great standalone set. That would leave room for other figs like Imperial officers (dark grey & black) and technicians (light grey) etc. in place of Jedi Luke, the Emperor and his royal guards. If it is a playset remake, it might be a nice idea to try covering the exterior so it looks more like the Death Star when on display, with removable/opening panels to access the interior; just to distinguish it a bit from the previous model.
  4. 75099 Rey's Speeder + 75148 Encounter on Jakku + this promo figure =
  5. Oh okay, well I'm planning another reboot to my LDD sets on Brickshelf (if I get round to uploading them at all and not just using them on my own PC) so it probably won't be the last time... If people want my sets, they're probably better just browsing my Brickshelf account (I'll add a link in my signature) or PMing me as a few have been doing - that's much more likely to be correct and up-to-date with the sets I build.
  6. Both the index links and the download links work fine for me, so I don't know what your trouble is... If you're still having problems, just browse my Brickshelf.
  7. There is only one dream Christmas tree, and that is one that represents World Peace! Merry Christmas everyone!
  8. It looks like she has a cape in deskp's last picture. Is that custom-added or official?
  9. I received my figs yesterday. Thanks so much CopMike! ^^
  10. What Mr Man said Thanks for your continued interest and kind comments everyone. Wow it's been nearly 6 years since I started this thread! I'm afraid that making clone troopers, Eurobricks and LEGO in general is a bit behind me and has been for a while now. I still try to keep up to date with what goes on here, but I don't see myself ever being as active here as I used to be. The same goes for my official sets in LDD, which I won't be posting on EB anymore, but I will try to still upload to my Brickshelf account when I do go back to LDD for a bit with the releases of new waves of sets. Sad news, I know, but I thought I should just post something about it. See you around, everyone.

  15. Thank you. This error has now been fixed. It seems that post (#3847) was missed out when the index was updated.

  17. Thank you very much everyone for your votes and feedback. And thanks a lot vean for that excellent render! I'll have a go at redesigning the cockpit and report back here when the project is available to vote for on LEGO Ideas.
  18. Hi everyone. It's been quite a while since I last posted a MOC here but having recently started re-watching the Star Wars films, I have been trying my hand at several LDD models. And so, I present to you the Storm IV Twin-Pod Cloud Car. Best known for its appearance in The Empire Strikes Back during the approach to Bespin's Cloud City, this relatively small vehicle was a fair challenge due its smooth, rounded shape which can be quite difficult to replicate in LEGO. Given the vast expansion of rounded LEGO parts created since the release of LEGO's first and only System-scale version of this ship, improving upon their design was not all that difficult. Front & Rear views: As always, I try my best to keep a 'realistic' head on when designing an LDD MOC, meaning that the model should be able to be built using real LEGO parts were they available. Obviously many of the parts used in this MOC aren't available in the colours used, but that's just one of the many advantages that designing in LDD gives! The central grey tiles are not attached - instead they represent stickers that would give the model more detail. Blaster stickers could also be placed on the fronts of each pod. Top: Side: The top of cockpit can be tilted back to reveal an interior on both sides, complete with control panels, steering wheel, seat and crude storage space behind. These are four potential figs that could accompany this vehicle should it be released as a LEGO set. You can vote at the top for which figs you think would best suit this set if LEGO were to release it. Given the model's size, without any scenery or additions, I think two (max of three) figures would be reasonable. The only new moulds that would be necessary in this set would be the Cloud Car Pilot's helmet, released in orange (LDD's Neon Orange used for closest match) with yellow printing down the centre. The figure would have goggles and a chinstrap printed onto his face, similar to a modern Rebel Pilot fig, possibly with a generic face on the reverse side without goggles. He'd have torso and leg printing too, as well as a dark grey blaster pistol. The second fig is the same Lobot fig as seen in set 9678 - minus the blaster. A new curly hairpiece for Lando could be a nice addition to this set, but not an essential one. Lando is, of course, in his Cloud City outfit - an update of this fig. He'd come with a standard blaster. The final figure would be an update of the Bespin Guard figure from set 6209. He would have be a generic guard with a moustached face, based on little known character Helder Spinoza. He would have a printed torso and printed arms and legs, as well as a grey pistol. Below are two potential cockpit designs. I found the cockpit to be the most difficult part of the vehicle to shape. You can vote at the top for which one you prefer. Please complete the polls at the top of this page. Once the best set idea has been established I will upload the model to LEGO Ideas and add a link here for you to show your support. LXF File Thanks for looking.
  19. Thanks very much, Superkalle! The image and LXF for the set above have been updated.

  22. Yes, it could be your PC settings, but some colours do look a lot different in LDD when compared to real parts. Tan (Brick Yellow) also looks darker than in real life. 75048 The Phantom (LDD 4.3.8 - Star Wars: Expanded Universe) LXF File ERRORS: Replaced droid body with brick-built solution and helmet with part 87610 Multi-colouring not available on part 15301 Incorrect/missing prints and stickers 75053 The Ghost (LDD 4.3.8 - Star Wars: Expanded Universe) LXF File ERRORS: Replaced alien head with part 12611 and hairpiece with part 95226 Multi-colouring not available on part 15301 Incorrect/missing prints and stickers Collision error between parts 45590 and 59426 (Book 1, p25) Collision error between parts 2823 and 3747 (Book 1, p32) Collision error between parts 54383 and 6191 (Book 2, p27) Collision error between parts 3020 and 3298 (Book 2, p28 & p37) Collision error between parts 54384 and 6191 (Book 2, p36)
