LEGO Lazy Fails

>ITS NOT EVEN THAT HARD TO MAKE A MECHANISM TO MAKE THOSE WINGS MOVE LIKE THEY DID IN THE MOVIE!

It's not, but no toy version of Ren's shuttle has a moving feature. It was probably a last minute addition to the ship that did not get to the toy producers in time to fix it.

However, as someone who did mod the shuttle to have movable wings, I really got to give the Lego designers credit for making the static version an easier build (for younglings) and still very stable. The things I did adding in the giant hinges, while still legal builds, are way too complicated for younger people to do.

rens shuttle doesnt even look very close to the movie

>>6097104
we've been over this, they have to work off of prototype images

>>6097021

In the case of the shuttle, it's been gone over a thousand times. Unfortunate but it makes sense.

Adult Ahsoka is a bit lazy, that second image is young Ahsoka and I haven't seen much of CW but doesn't she have green sabers at some point?

it bothers me that after all this time, they still haven't made a good snowspeeder

>>6097126
Wasn't this almost the exact same kit as one that came out years before it?

>>6097126
What's wrong with that one?

The long one is green, the shorter one is yellow-green

jeez lego

>>6097126
I really liked the original build from '99...then again, I haven't really bought much Lego Star Wars since then...

It'd be pretty hard to make a decent white lightsaber piece without it just being GitD. And there's not even a trans yellow-green color in Lego right now.

Also, there's a perfectly good Lego General thread up right now.

oh shit
i never noticed one was shorter
or that it was yellow

Also I used to use the glowing pieces from this set for lightsabers.
they are basically the color of a whitesaber

>>6097255
>>6109553
There is a shorter "lightsaber" piece though?
It's with the minifigure collections with the characters with guns- space guys/aliens and robots have them.
No yellow green one though.

Lego may not have had them developed by then.

>>6109654
Pretty sure the blind bag grey alien came out before the second clone wars era Ahsoka.

I just use one of the old lightsaber blades before they came out with the modern green one. Works well enough, though I didn't bother trying to shorten it.

what are some must-have retired sets that don't cost much on bricklink? I wanna get some nostalgia in my hands

>>6097021
>not just giving her gitd blades because you're either too poor or autistic to just fix the problem yourself without first whining on /toy/

What a cock.

>>6115703
>must-have retired sets
>don't cost much
???

>>6115703
Old Legoland/town sets. Space factions like Mtron, RockRaiders, etc.

>>6115924
Some specific retired themes are much rarer than others. I was just looking at old Airport sets and promo tie in sets the other day and they cost a pretty penny next to the more recent/surplus themes like Johnny Thunder.

>>6097126
I had the 99 set back in the day, only gripe with it was that the wings came off too easily if you were trying to move them

But practically every toy made for the launch was from art, script, animatics, screeners, etc.
That isn't tightlipped at all. They just sign nondisclosure agreements and then get fucked over when scenes are cut from the movie three months before its released.

How well did these things sell anyway?

>>6117238
>>6116790

Shouldn't there be some kind of agreement that the stuff you are licensing will at least be in the movie for a second or else you get some of your money back?

Also why doesn't Disney like tell them immediately when details are changed (like Kylo's shuttle being black). Licensors sound shitty lol.

That explains why the starblaster looks nothing like the one from the movie.

The Stingrays really did a number on the Aquanauts.

>>6097021
why do you have to type in all caps? you make a valid point here but you look like a fucking child who didn't get their ice cream.

>>6097149
Most likely, lego will never get tired of giving us the same hoth sets year after year after year

>>6117271
thats more of it being a build that would cost way more to make properly

>>6117238
You actually see them in the film.... from a million miles away.

Still a cool set though, and I didn't see an excess of them in stores like literally every other bullshit overpriced sets that wave had.
