Why would anyone ever buy this

>>6508148
Never mind, it's 80 USD. Still can't see how it'd be worth it though

Still waiting on the cracklink order to replace these broken sides.

So how about them slightly updated minifigures

How much does a Jango Fett figure from 2002 go for?
I've been thinking about re-assembling mine since I've got two of them.

The cactus is from Crazy Bricks. It came as a freebie when I ordered the carrot costume. The cactus has a recessed stud on top and two anti-studs on the back.

I posted the X-Files bootlegs in the /pbbg/ >>6508272

>>6508420
According to Bricklink, they start around $45 if they're in decent shape.

>>6508432
Damn really?
I should build one back up soon then, I'm using one head for a Solid Snake figure and the other has no home (they're kind of weird since the skin tone is darker).

>>6508431
Is the carrot suit two pieces?

Just buy the $100(now) set if you're not a gigantic autist who buys LEGO as display pieces.

Compared to my interior which is on the same exact scale as this new UCS one the fact the room is split into two annoys the heck out of me.

>>6508544
>you could buy the set at the US price and have it shipped overseas and it would still be cheaper than what it costs to buy it in here Australia

I was already having a hard time justifying the purchase but that price basically solidifies my decision as a no. A fucking $300 markup for no reason is complete bullshit.

Yeah and it looks great but I guarantee it's flimsy and you're unable to move it without great caution. This new release is still a good improvement over the old one which didn't have anything inside.

Besides, this has finally made owning a UCS Falcon affordable. Now redoing one like that is possible without spending a minimum $3000 or saving a bit off that price and spending a ton of time buying parts from dozens of Bricklink sellers.

>>6508676

That one also doesn't have a roof. Not to mention the interior is kind of bare.

Why do you care? Looks like you don't really need to own the new falcon from LEGO if you've already built an awesome version of your own.

>>6508955
Clearly you've never had the experience of, after completing a personal project, seeing someone else embark on a similar project and watch them make a bunch of little mistakes that they wouldn't have if they had just cared a little bit more, or paid a little more attention.

Hypothetical for all you licensefags.
How would you feel if for the up coming Han Solo movie, they retired the Millennium Falcon (The "smaller" Force Awakens one, not the new UCS) and replaced it with a near identical one, just modded to be more inline with the stand alone film?

doesn't that make you want to buy like twelve

So the Silencer is the best Star Wars set recently released right?

>>6509785
That's a weird way of saying Darth Vader Transformation

>>6509652
This is exactly what they are going to do according to Rebelscum. They say the sets are Falcon, X-Wing, some kind of Landspeeder, a battlepack and a microfighter but I think they are just guessing from the boxes since aside from the Falcon nothing of this really fits the boxes. What they call X-Wing for example is a square box normally for TIE Fighters.

I hate all these samey releases when there really are better solutions for many of the Falcons bits. The E7 Falcon was already practically identical to the 2011 one so a Solo Movie one would just return back to 2011.

On the not of Falcons, why do they use shields and dishes for the Dejarik table? When you try to place pieces there to represent the figures they will just slide off.

>>6509796
The TLJ sets are definitely not the best except maybe the Stardestroyer. The better sets are always spring stuff like Ach-To temple, Praetorian Battle Pack.

>>6509803
>On the not of Falcons, why do they use shields and dishes for the Dejarik table? When you try to place pieces there to represent the figures they will just slide off.

Because the Dejarik is an iconic design you can't get with a plate? Use your imagination for the pieces

>>6509614
>>6509634
I'd probably have to agree with this anon.
I love the green and red pieces. It's got some nice detail and a lot of pieces too.

Or with the curved windshield

>>6510087
Square

>>6510087
>>6510088
The one with curved windshield looks better to me, simply because this gray slopes around it are one stud wide, kinda blends with lower section. But unlike square, this variant really needs something round on the roof. Those 2x2 tiles just do not fit.

neither, the six-wide roof section really doesn't work for me.

I'd use pic related, using 1x1 cheese slopes and leaving some studs exposed. Or maybe putting trans-black tiles on them to suggest sensor emplacements matching the windsheld color.

It's going to be for sale for a minimum 2 years. Wait for the next May 4th event and get double or triple points and some freebies with it.

>>6509975
It's iconic because it's pretty close to screen accurate, while retaining lego-ness associated with older space themes that star wars killed.

Don't get me wrong, I love the diversification of parts in the last 15 years, but that early wave was lego being applied to star wars, not the other way around. Or something like that, I don't ahve a better analogy.

I'm actually not that big of a fan of Star Wars. It's mostly sentimental. My father watched the original movies with me and gave me a big Kenner Millennium Falcon he found at a garage sale before he passed away.

It's still worth that to me but still feels kind of bitter knowing I could have just waited and saved myself $1000.

Granted its a $150 knockoff, but still.

Feel a little guilty on this one. The twin rotor chinook types are literally built off instructions from actual sets, and the bigger one in the back is the ResQ chopper with "guns" and "rocket pods" added. The rest are my own, loosely based on the real-life CH-53. The rotors look retardedly small but I no longer have sufficient long pieces for them. Med chopper has a winch and an open left side. Small one on the far left is a recon bird. The black/yellow in the front has instrument panels on the inside, and that little tiny black piece next to it with the colored ends fits under the nose and is supposed to be a thermal/infrared/camera pod.

Super autismo dump is almost done. The two in the very front are light bombers, red/yellow on the far left is a scout/recon plane, and the rest are fighter bombers.

ahem, it's excellent attention to detail anon

I could go on for pages on what every little greebly doodad on my spaceships does, it's fun making shit up as I'm building.

>Typing this out makes me realize how deep my autism runs.

I'm putting together a tower for a background set and had to put a ladder in because otherwise it would bother me that there's no way to access the upper floors even though it probably won't even be visible in the shot. All that matters is if you're having fun.

Wasn't satisfied with how small it was, so I removed the play features and doubled the space in the back.

Still a work in progress, have only had this set for a day.

The quality on these is somewhat weaker. In the front is the 1999 X-Wing that I recolored to "Blue Squadron" after seeing Rogue One. Also in front are random anti-aircraft pods. Middle is a pseudo-F/A-18 and one of my favorites. In the back is an AWACS/electronic warfare plane. Far left is a medium bomber/cargo plane (used to be better, but it's kinda shit now b/c I scavenged a lot of parts from it for other things). Rear-right is pretty meh, but not as bad as it used to be. Scraping the bottom of the barrel on aircraft pieces, so it's an air-refueling plane.

>>6511452
nice conversion, I wanted to do something like that if I picked it up.

Canopy looks surprisingly good without the stickers.

I love those planes.

Please flip the red/green beacons on the circled planes because aerial safety is very important.

>>6511456
I'm deciding if I want to order a Trans Light-Blue one off of Bricklink before I throw any stickers on.
This set's stickers are surprisingly good.

lel, fair point. it's been a hobby since childhood (born in 87), so it would probably be wierder if I didn't focus on the little things after this long.
>>6511455
Probably the last pic. I have a few boats from the old coast guard/divers line and a bunch of jeeps cloned from a few of the old city sets and resq line, but they aren't particularly fascinating.

Here's just a money shot of all my knights/cav/imperial horse bros. Please excuse the black shit on the table, it was there from the previous homeowner and I've been too lazy to paint it grass-green.

anyone have the supposed leaked pictures of the 2018 Yoda hut?

Anyone knows any articulated mocs of house cats (a least one year old)? I want to build one for my futuristic army as a tamed monstrous creature.
Already tried to look for one everywhere but no luck.

First time seeing Chinese knockoffs? Their English often isn't the best, so using whatever version of Google Translate China has probably told them that "hero" and "escort" (as in "bodyguard") were close enough.

An attempt was made. I'm headcanoning it as a low-orbit supply pod, so no onboard weaponry nor sleeping quarters.

Can always nap in the reclining pilot's seat, after all.

Early to mid 2000s stickers are notorious for being absolute crap.

Nice, I like the idea of using trees to hold the plates together.
Going to build a little town?

>>6511853
thanks, I don't have the buildings yet or the amount of space i'd like, but yeah i would like to make a town or something

>>6511830
As an urban planner, you suck. Where are the buildings supposed to go?
Can you arrange them in a complete circuit with no roads to nowhere?

What are the chances that we will get some harry potter sets in 2018? Not just cmf and fantastic beasts for which i don't care much. I'm a student and don't know if i should spend my money on ninjago or should i wait for the 2018 leaks and see hp sets and decide.
Fuck 2018 will be especially hard for my wallet with city, creator, ninjago movie + series and harry potter, honorable mentions to lego batman and jurassic park, i will get them if i like the set pictures, these preliminary pics are pretty bad quality. I already see myself regretting from not buying every set i want, this shit sucks.

>>6511857
lmao, i don't even have any buildings made, i just have the roads out because I like the way they look
