gregpj Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Amazing how many times it needs to be said on the internet. And this isn't directed at the person with the troll award. @mscheaf - If you ever get the itch to build, the UCS are pretty awesome builds. I haven't built all of them, but they tend to be a lot more "rewarding" than regular Lego sets due to their scale! Edited February 3, 2015 by gregpj 1 Quote

inversion Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) That's about what I expected, zero playability. Now I hope the "every UCS from now on will be playsets" comments will end. The price is also alright for a UCS with a heap of large plates. Anyway does that minifig differ from the previous versions in any way? EDIT: It seems it has arm printing and a little more detail on helm and chest. Designer video 1:18 : sticker application FAIL Also is there anybody here who thinks that in the recent videos the designers talk to the audience like they were 6 year old idiots? The recent IDEAS announcement is still the most awful though. Edited February 14, 2015 by inversion Quote
biking_tiger Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 The pics of this look very nice Are there new pics? The earlier ones are fan art. Quote

biking_tiger Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Very nice. So yes... the pilot is a unique minifig. I wouldn't expect anything else from UCS. (Check out the sticker below the cockpit at 1:16. It seems even LEGO staff can't put the #^%^ things on straight.) Edited February 14, 2015 by biking_tiger 2 Quote

Migration Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) 1685 pieces. Isn't that more than R5? Also, did anyone else notice in the video that a couple of the stickers were on crooked? Edited February 14, 2015 by Migration Quote
beatpoppa Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 The spinning display stand makes the future brighter for all UCS. Incredible. Quote
inversion Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Hmh there is the first UCS set with the Disney logo in the bottom right corner... 1 Quote
Pseudoty Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) 1685 pieces. Isn't that more than R5? R2 = 2127 but lots of. Technic pins and 1X1. Whith those big black plates I would thing the PPG on this set will be good. OP nice find but. With all those comments I wonder how long this has been out there? Put a motor on that stand.

trekgate502 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 While it may be better without the Disney logo... It does not bother me... For $5 billion I would want my name on it too I'll be in lline opening day. Great set. 1 Quote

Val-E Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Official Price 200 euros, right? Are we going for launch on May 4th? Edited February 14, 2015 by valenciaeric Quote
BrickLegacy Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Don't be afraid of the Disney logo. Embrace it. Star Wars fans won't care. It will only create new customers from the Disney fanatics. Case in point: we have friends that are obsessed with Disney. There are many, many more like them. My Facebook feed is proof of that. These particular friends are now obsessed with Marvel and Star Wars. They won't even touch Batman. I mean the kid doesn't even like Batman. It's diabolical and irrational, but that's what Disney fans are when it comes to their passions. If you sell LEGO, in particular Star Wars LEGO, Disney is your friend. They are creating customers for you left and right. The small square inch logo is well worth that price of my childhood integrity. 2 Quote

Val-E Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) They should hire Rick Wilde - The Chevy stuff guy to do them all! Edited February 14, 2015 by valenciaeric 1 Quote
gregpj Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Does anyone else find all the designer videos painfully awkward to watch? This one wasn't as bad as the last ideas video, but when the guy on the left has to cover his mouth to hide that he is laughing... Maybe another take is in order! And that sticker placement everyone else noticed is hilarious. It's not even subtle. It's HUGE! I'm going to need a new Detolf cabinet! Quote
