This is the single greatest review of any Lego set made by anyone. Thank you very much for this milestone in Lego reviews.
-
I love it, especially the eyes. Gives a lot of character. Also great usage of the Reinhardt shoulder piece.

Gen Xers use Tik Tok to do dance videos and other short videos. It's like Vine but there's more of a social media aspect to it.- 75 replies

No. I think that younger builders do prefer platforms that get them higher exposure. I tend to post MOCs on Reddit because the site's frequented a lot more. This is just from my personal experience, but I mainly frequent Eurobricks just to look at MOCs and read the great reviews that are posted. Forums are more lengthy in content, which is both a bad and good thing.- 75 replies

If you're threatening @Mandalorianknight or just warning him to mind his own business or whatever, saying "if I were you," I would just remind you that you're posting on a forum. Which means people are free to comment and react to anything you post.- 75 replies

Agreed, it's pretty fair, banning is rarely the first step moderators take (unless it's things like bot/spam accounts which is perfectly reasonable).- 75 replies

Right, I agree, people should be able to say what they want without fearing retributions from moderators or staff... ...HUH? In the post you were referring to, the OP was not called "pathetic," rather, a "fabricated issue" was called pathetic. Big difference.- 75 replies

Besides the lack of detail inside the engine intakes, you have made the best Razor Crest MOC by a long stretch. Congrats!

@Kristof summed up everything pretty well.

This looks incredible so far. Can't wait to see the final product.

Instantly recognizable. Great job.

Great review, I'm looking to pick this up soon. Also, *Anakin* instead of *Luke* in the minifig description

Brilliant.

What is your favorite UCS Set of all time?
tfcrafter replied to Midlife-crisis's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Great contribution. I'll go for the Slave 1 myself. -
"They win by making you feel you're alone." This is my MOC of the Mission to Kijimi as seen in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. This is my first diorama I have ever built. In the very front is the duel between Rey and Kylo Ren, as well as the broken pot with spilled food and Vader's helmet. First Order Stormtroopers are patrolling Kijimi in the background, while Zorii and Poe talk on a rooftop. Meanwhile, 2 of the Knights of Ren are searching for Rey. C-3PO awaits a protocol bypass in Babu Frik's workshop.

Thanks! It's a bit smaller than minifig scale, the cockpit can't fit 3 people like it's supposed to. No plans to release instructions yet. The U-Wing is based on Inthert's U-Wing and the T-70 is loosely based on the collaborative model in this thread:

Thanks! It's about 35cm long. Thank you! Thanks, I'd estimate it's about 2000 pieces. Thanks! I'll update the thread with interior pics once I take them, but there's not much to see in the cargo hold. Once I get a Mandalorian figure I hope to include the Razor Crest as part of a larger diorama.

Thanks, those were the hardest to do. Originally I was going to use a wheel as the main assembly but that was too small, so I ended up building the engine from scratch.

EXACTLY. Thank you, finally someone who gets it. This thread should literally have not mentioned the screenwriting ability or directing ability of filmmakers because that's literally not the point. Also there are other factors like trade tariffs that are making toy distribution more expensive, particularly in the States (Hasbro's released a statement addressing this) which could also be a factor in poor toy sales.

bUt hOw wOuLd tHaT aFfEcT lEgO????????????? Seriously, only one mention of Lego on this page of a thread asking how Lego's sales will be affected Predictably, this thread has become even more of a cancerous cesspool of crapposting Sequel Trilogy haters and defenders. I mean this is all fun to read and I love people being so upset/fired up at two movies but please stick to the topic for crying out loud. If you don't like the movies then that's ok, if you love them then that's ok too, we're discussing the hypothetical of toy sales, not why "Kathleen Kennedy ruined Star Wars" or why "JJ Abrams is a horrible director" or why "the sequel trilogy is the greatest cinematic masterpiece ever made." Y'all need to relax. Personally I don't think Lego's sales will really be affected at all, Star Wars has had a resurgence in recent years, and given how much more effort is being put into marketing TROS rather than, say, Solo, I think consumers will still buy into the brand. Even if sequel trilogy sets don't sell as well, Lego still makes an decent amount of OT/PT stuff (20th anniversary sets for example).

(ALTERED Moc) B-Wing E (expanded 2-person B-wing from EU)
tfcrafter replied to SteamSewnEmpire's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Love it! Great work. -
Oh I certainly hope so! Bottom line is - Star Wars has always been political. The Empire was based on America's involvement in Vietnam, and Lucas was particularly vocal against Nixon and the Republican Party. Even the prequels were political, Lucas strongly disliked Republicans Newt Gingrich and Trent Lott, and named two of the antagonists, Nute Gunray and Lott Dod, after them. Pop culture will always be shaped by sociopolitical trends, that is just inevitable, and it'll continue happening. From what I gather, the thread was just supposed to be about how Lego's sales would perform in the event that Rise of Skywalker doesn't do well in theatres. But it didn't even take 10 posts for people to start bringing up politics and resort to name calling - but I mean, of course it did, because what else would people do - actually stay on topic? If you like the new movies, that's fine. If you hate them, that's fine. Nobody cares either way. But this is a Lego forum, and the thread has, predictably, devolved into yet another thread about Disney Star Wars' politics. Can someone get a moderator in here to shut this thread down?
