Popular Post Vader888 Posted December 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2016 Bought this used. Took it apart to clean and rebuilt it. Tedious task with mainly small pieces. Hard to believe this set has over 2000 pieces. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe this set has over 2000 pieces.I saw your buying post and I wanted to laugh at you for taking it apart and cleaning it (my used one came separated). That's so much work and the build is really tedious but it looks fantastic at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Manbat also has two faces. Aside from the dual printed head with the second face giving a worried expression, this Man-Bat is exactly the same as the last one.

Popular Post exciter1 Posted December 10, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2016 I got lucky and picked this up in an EBay auction for $12 plus $10 shipping. All the minifigs are there except for one skeleton crystal head dude. Less than 10 pieces missing and they will be picked up soon with some other stuff on Bricklink. I already have this set loose, but didn't have a box. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 That's an amazing MOC with some fantastically designed artwork. Person was very talented. I'm surprised LEGO let them do that. I guess it's a dedication to potential unrealized futures for Indiana Jones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Manse1001 Posted December 11, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2016 Today I dug this one out of my loft to accompany my EV. I forgot what a nice little set this is, good selection of minifigs, a building and a vehicle. I know the perception of the EV is hugely divided on here, but for me, one of my favorite sets, and I personally think 8038 looks great next to it, albeit a little cramped!!! 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midbenne Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 After seeing the Westworld MOC, I had to do it. Spent the afternoon Saturday combing through the bulk lot I purchased last summer and managed to get this all done w/what I had. Besides the hair pc for Dr. Ford and his face (which I will sub out w/the old Han from the new MF later) all looks well to me. I might add a couple more heads behind the glass, and a case for the gold but besides that, I am very happy with it. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got a bit of a breather between now and the next episode but I was wondering what to think about building next. Not that I have enough pcs to do it, but I thought that maybe a sweetwater scene might be cool (and feasible). Sand base plate, tons of brown bricks, a few horses for Hector's showdown and viola! Maybe the ewok village would be more valuable as a Westworld Sweetwater scene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelgazra Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Where did you find the "UCS Sticker"? Was it cheap? Could be a nice addition. You've also got ~$300 worth of Uruks there. Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete411 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Spent an hour this afternoon building this. Lots of pieces for such a small set so it has a lot of detail. Fun stuff. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
