    I contacted Lego and asked them if they could send me the updated minifig (I had proof in terms of both the receit where I bought the original set, and the serial number) but it was a big NO. Not even the head and helmet - nothing. Feels pretty bad that I'd have to resort to buying it from profiteers on ebay. :/

    I feel the same way. Crappy movie in general, urinating on a lot that Star Wars stood for. But the Dreadnought, Resistance Bomber and that scene in general was awesome.

    Oh. My. God. I absolutely love it! Sign me up, buddy. :D

    Update: That was a big no from Lego. And on ebay/bricklink they are like 150 bucks each. Really sucks. :(

    Thanks, I'll give it a try! :)

    I haven't been following the whole discussion, but regarding Finch Dallow - can I just contact Lego to get the new version if I have an older version of the set? Thanks.

    So, basically I'm saving up bricks for a giant MOC. And I'm storing them in separate zip-lock bags inside a newly-purchased plastic container. It's air tight with some kind of rubber lid. However, I noticed that the new container smells relatively strong of plastic (a kind of chemical smell). Do you think this could damage or make the bricks smelly? Is there any other risk with storing Lego bricks this way? Other than the smell there are no issues, it's stored away from sunlight and heat.

    Can someone link me what's considered to be the most accurate minifig-scale Snowspeeder MOCs out there, that has instructions (buyable is fine)? :)

    Oh my god, it's beautiful! I would love your take on the resistance bomber from TLJ. :)

    If you manage to reverse-engineer it, I would love the Studio-file for this (if the artist approves ofc), it's awesome!
  11. danielwerner
    Whoa, totally missed that. Thanks! :)
  12. danielwerner
    That looks awesome man! Would also be interested in the LDD/Studio file if possible. :)

    Any thoughts about how to make a sturdy and secure stand for these A-wings? Or do you already have one you could share? :) I myself am a total MOC-newbie and found I'm incapable on creating one myself. Would love to display mine in some way but not sure how.

    Now there's a story I'd like to hear. ^^ Anyway, I think I prefer your own works, since if you worked for LEGO you would have to make a lot of sacrifices in terms of piece count, playability, build-difficulty, retail price, etc etc etc. The only thing I care about when it comes to MOCs are design accuracy and robustness of the final build. :) *cough* please do a Starcraft Battlecruiser next *cough*

    My dream would be to get my hands on the instructions (or at least the Studio-files) for the Starcraft Battlecruiser, and the Warcraft 2 Dreadnought (both featured on Flickr). Always loved Blizzard games, so that would the best thing ever. On topIc: Which color variations do you like the most, fellow builders? I'm really not sure if I like the rugged or clean dark red A-wing the best. And with the R22 I like all equally much.

    In the parts list the inverted 3x1 slopes are in dark red, which is fine since they exist (but are rare). However, the horizontal clips only exist in reddish brown (or red, but that's even further away from the dark red tint). For most that's probably fine, but it just bugs me too much so I feel I either have to paint them or find some way to solve it with other pieces. :) So I don't mean there was any errors in the parts list, only that I personally feel I can't use reddish brown there.

    I've bought them and can only say: Great work, as always! I was actually just collecting parts to build the Krispy A-Wing (which also is very well made), but this has perfected the design in every way. Scapped my plans and now building one RZ-1 in dark red (the classic, a must have) and one R22 in the inverted blue (was hard deciding on the color there). The ONLY negative aspect is that horizontal 1x1-clips don't exist in dark red. I'm actually thinking of paining (blasphemy, I know) a few with Khorne red Citadel paint which would come pretty close in terms of color. It's no big deal at all, just a shame, but I understand there was no other feasible way to solve it. :)
  18. danielwerner
    AWESOME! :D I just wondered yesterday why the A-wings are being left out. Can't wait to buy the instructions and build 'em.
  19. danielwerner
    I'm buying the parts right now. A couple of questions though: 1. Can I change 30360 to 93168? Or is there any slight differences? 2. Which looks better? The intended old style clips (with edges "all the way out") or the new O-style clips?
  20. danielwerner
    Thanks for the info. No worries over here, hadn't started on it yet. :)
  21. danielwerner
    Alright, now I've finally had the time to rebuild, and it looks a lot better. :) I was very careful with aligning the gears and axles at the exakt same rotation on both sides. Right now, when building as far as connecting the wings (page 31), everything is perfectly level as far as I can see. Might be some millimeters off but I can't imagine that would matter. However, the main fu tilt down to the right but not the left. I assume that's normal, it shouldn't tilt to both sides right? I put the key in and the tilting can no longer be done, the X-fold mechanic works fine and looks level to me.
  22. danielwerner
    Awesome work! I sent an email yesterday, hopefully it didn't get in the spam folder. ^^
  23. danielwerner
    Ah, so the the cogs and axles have to have the exact same rotation on both sides? I think that's the issue then. Maybe, if anything, that part needs some extra emphasis. But it might also just be that I didn't pay it enough attention. :)
  24. danielwerner
    Hmm, not sure. To be frank, I'm not even sure where I went wrong myself. The cogwheel was perfectly set in place in the two window bricks, and I tried to put it as close to the pictures as possible. Does it matter where it is placed inside the window "tracks"; how close to the edge on either side? Or should it just be in the middle? I may have screwed up by twisting the axles on both sides. Perhaps you know the exact part where I went wrong, that caused this kind of problem? I haven't had time to rebuild. :)
  25. danielwerner
    Thanks! :) So if the gear is set correctly that part should be able to tilt equally much in both directions, correct? Because right now it's like it tilts 2 cm down on the right side, and nothing on the left (it's horizontal only when pushed as much as possible to the right).
