MarleyMoose Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I love the look of this ship. I have a gut feeling this may be a really nice money maker down the road. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaisonline Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I love the look of this ship. I have a gut feeling this may be a really nice money maker down the road. it is a nice design. I just wish the ship sat higher so the door could be fully lowered. Easy enough fix though by modifying the 3 landing gears.Not sure about investment potential though unless this is the last Imperial Shuttle for a long time. I could be wrong as the last non-UCS MF, Tie fighter and X-Wing did very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TheOrcKing Posted October 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2015 These stopmotion sort of build videos and channels are becoming more prevalent which is good but also means each will have to start offering a new twist on the genre compared to the other guy. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locutus001 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Love it! Some day I need to figure out how they do these animations! I know there is a lot of stop motion but the part with the minifig-building for example: The parts move a little bit downward - even the staying in place in midair part would be facinating enough on its own! - without anything being visible that holds it.I also get the feeling that Chewy is being discriminated for being non-human :-P But seriously: Would have been just a little bit cooler if he would have his normal "voice" instead of some bear sounds. (His normal voice is a mix of several animal sounds if I'm correctly informed). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Why does Princess Leia have a cookie? That's silly...Very neat build video though.I know there is a lot of stop motion but the part with the minifig-building for example: The parts move a little bit downward - even the staying in place in midair part would be facinating enough on its own! - without anything being visible that holds it.If you look closely, the parts are always touching.. don't believe me?

Building mutual trust and stuff...He (or she? ^.^) likes it well enough so they become friends ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyHand Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I built this set today, and I think it's actually a really nice set! Bought at Amazon Germany for €76,24 (Dutch VAT included) which is a nice discount from the Dutch MSRP of €109,99. Thinking whether I should buy some more for this price for future resale...

thoroakenfelder Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 If you asked Carrie Fisher about her cookie, her response would probably be shocking.Back in '82 when they were filming in the desert outside of Yuma, the cast was staying at the hotel where my grandmother worked in their little restaurant. She said that Carrie had one of the foulest mouths she had heard. Kenny Baker too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She cut the line in front of like 20 people, very rude. Although, one of the fans did pick up their bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomBoomFlash Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I assembled one Tydirium. The cockpit canopy always sinks down under its own gravity, does not stay open---perhaps only on the Endor where g is presumably lower than on Earth. I found one review which mentions that, but did not see it mentioned by Jangbricks. Is this a common problem? How can I fix it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose you could MOC up a little kickstand or something on the interior. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same problem too and I guess it's a common issue of this model. Something not caught by TLG quality control. Just like they didn't catch the loose head of Wall-E. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaisonline Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Can you fellas call Lego and let them know like the owners of early Wall-E and the TFA X-Wing sets. Maybe some sort of fix can be issued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoroakenfelder Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 when I was laying in bed feverish all day Monday, all I could think about for hours was opening up one of these and building it. I've got one in my to be built pile, but I didn't realize my desire to do so was so strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyHand Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I really enjoyed building the Tydirium shuttle and I find it aesthetically much more eye-pleasing than the new 75104 Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 It's a great set. Got one for my self to build sometime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyHand Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Just a thought ... When multiple of us here who primarily think of buying Lego sets cheap and selling them high consider this set so good that we want to actually build it, consider how the general Lego buying public is eyeing this set! I will definitely keep a close eye on this set and buy more stock whenever I find a really good sale on this one because I have a strong feeling this set will do well after retirement, even if that's still maybe 2 years off.

To find sales on this in Europe is definetely no problem at the moment. You can find it for 20-30% off (or even more) rather effortless.

Vinetu Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) I bought this one for myself (actually bday present from my better half) but I do not intend to build it. Just to use it. I have higher ambitions... Edited November 18, 2015 by Vinetu 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
