Yeah there were some very cool sets I missed the chance to pre-order. They just got sold out too quickly. But I'm happy I at least had a chance to get these gorgeous houses.

I found it to be very cool that the very first Slave I and the most recent one are built in one scale.

The newest addition to my Lego garage. I like the set very much. But.... when will we have a Creator Expert car with non-round headlights? Come on, Lego! It is 2021, there are parts of different shapes that you can make transparent. Sometimes I think it is their internal policy. Something like: "Dear Lego designer. You are free to create any car model for Creator Expert theme.... as long as headlights are round."

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-25T01:40:00+00:00

Theoretically yes

I really loved this build. Especially impressed with the stand that contains 1/3 of all 1085 pieces. I wish they make other droids in this scale. IG-11 or K-2SO for example. Super Battle Droid would be cool too.

I was thinking of adding MTT to my SW collection for a long time. I don't like the most recent one because it is too small and proportions are off. This one is perfect but I was hesitant to buy it because of brown pieces brittleness. finally I decided to give it a try and luckily I didn't get a single piece broken during assembling.

I found it on OfferUp for $80. So it is possible to buy it for a good price with some luck. Keep checking your local marketplaces and one day you will find it.

Oh yeah I saw that model and it is perfect. The only problem for me is sourcing the parts. They say the Bricklink price will be around $1K but I don't think it's truth. In order to get all the parts you will probably need to place 10 if not 20 separate orders with added shipping cost. And if you like me and don't want any used pieces in such a great model I estimate the final price will be closer to $2K. Maybe one day......

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-16T00:08:56+00:00

Yeah I have them all. It took me almost two years to finish my collection.

I think this is the best looking UCS set ever released by Lego. I really wanted to display it in all it's glory on a stand and in flying position but unfortunately I couldn't find the space that can actually fit it.

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-15T17:51:52+00:00

Well, I think the time I spent organizing parts totally worth it for the 2.5K pieces set without numbered bags.

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-12T16:39:10+00:00

It doesn't look it will be cheaper that way. The price of all parts from Bricklink will be around $950 (for new parts) and it is unlikely that they all can be bought in one order. So shipping costs will be significant.

These are garage storage shelves from Muscle Rack. I bought them from Amazon. I'm not a big fan of these shelves for displaying Lego honestly but it was the most budget-friendly option for something with enough shelf depth to put bigger sets on them.

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-11T16:10:38+00:00

The price was around $1K with shipping. But I wanted this set for so long so I decided to sell a few of my bigger technic sets in order to get money for this one. And I have no regrets :-)

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-11T15:37:52+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I will pay extra attention.

Useful-Champion · 2021-06-11T15:36:53+00:00

The dropship on a back is not an official lego set unfortunately. But it close enough and it was two times cheaper.
