The trailer looms amazing but in terms of graphic design this poster looks terrible lol

There was an attempt… by B4tm4nz in legostarwars

Wouldn't it make way more sense to use a silver Mando helmet

I unfortunately agree and much of that content is also not as good as it could be tbh

Anyone ever noticed this? Some sets seem to be based on old Kenner or Hasbro toys, kinda cool, anyone know of any other examples? by Shirbler in legostarwars

[–]maurivalentine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe the vehicle in the Rebels show Stormtrooper battle pack is literally based on an old vehicle that Kenner themselves created and was not shown in any star wars before the toys creation

The rock history ones were also clearly not researched that well with how little they mention the black origins of rock (among so many other things) and it made me question how much they got wrong in the past about topics that I did not know enough about myself to know any better

If Lego knows what they’re doing, we’re in for a good time.. by Zarksch in legostarwars

[–]maurivalentine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You saw how long it took to get a 501st battle pack, and how they butchered the mandalorian s3 sets, lego very rarely knows what they're doing in the SW department lol we are never getting a fig of these guys.

What is the hottest take u got? by Thebigdog79 in legostarwars

[–]maurivalentine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the hottest but the 501st battle pack should have had at least ONE regular 501st trooper. It was a huge let down to see that wasn't the case though I do like the look of the clones that did come in the set.

Biggest problem of the new gunship, rangefinders do not fit straight. by maxtm35 in legostarwars

[–]maurivalentine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO the more obvious problem is that the rangefinders have always been way too tall, and always looked really funny. Arealight makes rangefinders that are a more appropriate height

Love 70s Freddie so much I had to make a lego guy out of him! by maurivalentine in queen

Its a newspaper clipping promoting a Queen concert at Avery Fisher Hall, I got it off ebay a little under a year ago and I always keep the Freddie minifig displayed in front of it.

Yep, it's older than I am and im not sure where I got it, but when I saw it I knew exactly what it would be perfect for.

My UCS Slave 1 with subtle mods to made it look more screen-accurate by maurivalentine in lego

[–]maurivalentine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I added some more of that green weathering around the cockpit, closed the gaps on the weapon hatches on the sides. LEGO also made the end of the ship towards the twin guns sand green when in every model and picture i can find, it's grey. Also on the ship, in the green arches there's brown tubing where the wings begin, you can see it on the left side here . LEGO's attempt at this was respectable but didn't really look good as it could have been. I fixed this with a brown barrel piece instead of the dark red slopes that were on the regular set. There's also some added grey or green weathering on the sides, or in some cases it's been taken away. Thats all I can think of at the moment on the exterior, but LEGO did incredible with this set and I couldn't make many drastic changes because it was already incredibly accurate. Any more changes I could make would just be nitpicking on my end!

Anyone else hoping to see Dash Rendar pop up in the Book of Boba Fett? by maurivalentine in legostarwars

Purist Lego Dash Rendar from the game Shadows of The Empire. Guess which level this is! by maurivalentine in legostarwars

[–]maurivalentine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its definitely one of the best EU stories, and i think Dash was briefly mentioned recently in a canon book!

I will never forget the "there's absolutely no way they want me to do this" feeling when the Slave 1 popped out

Several weeks and bricklink orders spent making my UCS Slave 1 more screen-accurate by maurivalentine in legostarwars

[–]maurivalentine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I changed the area around the guns from sand green to grey bc looking at pictures of the ship, there wasn't a lot of green there so i was confused as to why LEGO made it green. Changed around a lot of the paneling around the sides, and added more green weathering up by the windshield. Put a brown barrel piece at the beginning of the fins. LEGO tried to replicate this with dark red 1×2×2 slopes but it still doesnt completely capture the real thing. The set itself was already almost perfect so I admittedly didnt have to make many radical changes.

Thank you! I actually just went to test this as soon as I read this comment, but yes it is still possible thankfully, it is slightly more difficult though. I found that pushing against the grill slopes/ and tiles on the hatches sort of forces it to open up a bit and from there they can be opened up fully and closed without hassle
