  1. At least they made it white, which is the correct colour for the Millennium Falcon
  2. It looks great. Very accurate and a big improvement over the old one.
  3. You probably also think Han Solo's Hoth jacket is blue.
  4. It isn't. You are just used to models where the cockpit is oversized.
  5. I really hope they are not using the RA-7 head for 4-LOM, but it is probably just a placeholder. I expect him to look like he did in the Yoda Chronicles.
  6. It is a shame that the new fin piece is not the right shape for a ROTJ A-Wing. It works better on the McQuarrie style A-Wing from rebels where the fin isn't as tall.
  7. Very awesome model, I might have to finally replace my Psiaki
  8. It's not new, it was first seen in the Series 11 Minifigure welder and has been in several sets since. It is a great piece for greebling.
  9. I doubt anyone remembers page 438 of this thread, but I did point out that it was U-3PO because each minifigure in the calendar follows a related mini-build and U-3PO is preceded by the Tantive IV.
  10. Thanks for all the replies, now I know! The video above at around 4:50 shows the way it is used with a camera to eject torsos that have gone into the machine the wrong way around.
  11. Does anyone know why minifigure torso neck pins have a black or white rectangle printed on them? It is on many, but not all of the torsos from the earliest to the present day and I have always wondered why.
  12. He probably used the Bricks & Pieces service which is separate to the Pick A Brick one. It only has limited parts from current sets, but there are a lot more hair pieces on there for sure.
  13. You would only need one or two 20L's and they are not that expensive.
  14. Great job. I would recommend copper coloured tubing over yellow to be more screen accurate if you can get hold of it.
  15. Great building with lots of interesting techniques being used.
  16. I think you will find it is U-3PO since it comes directly after the Tantive IV mini build.
  17. Really great model, I like the concept of using two system scale Falcons as a starting point for a bigger one. I have to agree with Kit Bricksto about the mandibles. On the system scale models the mandibles are way too long, but it kind of works because the cockpit is so massively out of scale. If you scale the whole thing up but keep the cockpit at the same size, having such long mandibles doesn't work so well. Take a look at a top down view of a studio model and you will see what I mean. I would say your mandibles are close to twice as long as they should be to scale.
  18. A set with some bags sealed and never built will still be worth more than one that has been built. It seems cruel though to not let your son build it!
  19. It is obviously 5D6-RA-7 and the blue astromech is R3-M3
  20. I have received my Sauron from David and I can tell you they are as awesome as they look in the pictures
  21. Of course, everyone is going to want one of these now, I know I do :)
  22. Very impressive model, I think Psiaki's version has finally been beaten.
  23. Oops, sorry, I have edited my link to go to the high res version. That's another great image of it you have found.
  24. That's looking really fantastic! If you are having trouble printing the spikes, they could maybe be bigger. I'm not sure if that would make them any easier to print. Have you seen this? http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/lotr/images/d/dd/Lego_lotr_evil_characters_final.jpg
