Neosphinx Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Ladies and Gentlemen... it is done! Final verdict coming soon. Nice work Hendrik and it looks good! So what you going to do with it? Keep it or sell it? If you keep it, will you display it with some lighting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrikdejager Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Nice work Hendrik and it looks good! So what you going to do with it? Keep it or sell it? If you keep it, will you display it with some lighting? To be honest i am slightly dissapointed by the final product, it is way to oversized and fat. And the main framework can't handle the weight, it is leaning to the unfinished part (unfinished as in movie). Don't get me wrong, it is a great set. Very interesting building technics and one of the hardest Lego sets that i have personally build. I am going to sell it, i got no place to display this wannabe-moon. I hope to get my money back, don't need to make profit. Edited October 1, 2014 by hendrikdejager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope to get my money back, don't need to make profit. That's too bad. But at least you made the Death Star II It does seem a bit fragile on its stands. I think it could look great in a very big office, perhaps with some led lighting around the deflector area. I do hope you get more out of it then just your money back with all the effort you put into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrikdejager Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Forgot to add, this is the massive internal structure. Really impressive part of the piece in my opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biniou Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I've spent a lot of "like it" on that topic. Thanks for sharing, that was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandwraith Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Very nice! I know the troubles of bricklinking UCS sets all too well with the 10179 and now finishing up a 10030. This one will probably be my next project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eracine Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 very cool and thanks. I have been accumulating the pieces for our build to go with our UCS collection. I am about $200 away or so. My wife is going to use vinyl to get the sticker, she is a serious scrapbooker and she said piece of cake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
