Popular Post areyounormal Posted October 7, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2017 Marathon 3 day build to complete the Falcon! Total build time was around 20 hours and was actually a really straight forward build, nothing too complicated just lots of parts to look through for each set of bags. Really stoked - the ship looks amazing! 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squeakdigital00 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Attempting to make a bridge to cross to my other section about 30" gap. Using 12x12 modified 3 hole plates and 12x1 beams connecting the outer holes. I plated the gaps on top and the bottom. It's fairly stiff but I don't think it's going to work. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post marcandre Posted October 9, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) My wife and I built the Destiny's Bounty over the weekend (I got through bag 2 and she kicked me off & did the rest). First time she has built a set herself (almost).... It's a beautiful set, most detailed of all the lego ships imho. I sat it next to the Imperial Flagship once I got it to work. The Flagship is still my fav but this easily beats out the potc ships. Can't believe I have a Ninjago set on display! Highly recommend this one.

TurnipLicker Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I built the Lego Atlantis undersea portal. A very unloved theme, but a really nice build. Grandparents got it dirt cheap, and the kids love it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a nice little set, the tent has a brick built base and some of the elements in this set are cool/rareish like that rounded piece and the blue mining head (used as a camp stove) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for confirming the scale against the IF, very impressive for the price. I now can't wait to build my DB ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fenix_2k1 Posted October 12, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2017 Not built today but my last 3 big Star Wars big builds. 75192. Mirko Soppoelsa's UCS U-Wing and Bricklinked 10134 hopefully the table give people some idea of exactly how big 75192 actually is. More pics of U-Wing and Y-Wing inbound 15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenix_2k1 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Bricklinked Y-wing Some replacements made. Probably going to experiment with changing some of the pipes and hoses. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What alterations did you make? Do you know how much you saved? I did mean to write it up my impressions but got the instructions through for U-wing just as I finished this. I think using just European sites I got the price down to around 280 GBP inc postage. would have been even cheaper if I had access to US sellers without high postage penalty. As you can see the corrugated hoses are all slightly different shades of silver. I'm going to look at getting the right length hoses for each section, possibly in white. I'm also going to see about getting the thinner hoses that should be brown. Possibly buying longer length hoses and cutting them down to correct sizes.

Fenix_2k1 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 It looks like 78c11 and 78c08 are both available in White which will probably work better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally like the variations in this silver. it makes it look more realistic. Rebels dont have perfect paint jobs, and standard parts. They have duct tape and wear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
