  1. Today
  2. I've spent months, blocking channels that post negative, outrage videos on anything lego. I finally got my feed to where i'm getting more pleasant and more reasonable channels... if I click on that video from M&R, then months worth of work will be unraveled, and youtube will start feeding me the outrage channels again. It's like playing duck hunt blocking the negative nancy channels, in order to give a middle finger to the algorithm. Anyway, I don't know the dimensions on this set, but I do like the design, and it looks heavily detailed. There's supposedly 9000 pieces, so that's a good couple weeks worth of building, and i'm sure it will be interesting to build. The only mini that peaks my interest is the Imperial Dignitary, and to a lesser extent Galen Erso. Everything else is pretty much also in the older sets. This is a set you use your lego rewards points on, and either buy out of the gates and get the special GWP that will probably go for a good amount on ebay....or wait a year until the sales hit. Regardless, I will buy this one. I bought the original one (still mintly boxed), and the second version, but the second version grew quite nicely in value, that I sold it off. I want to get this new version, and build it. I do hope one day, they make a Death Star like the previous version, but it's covered in plates, and looks like an entire Death Star. That's what I was hoping for originally, with this version, but ohh well. This new one is still a nicely designed set.
  3. Motorized Lighthouse. Great build!
  4. Looks like I am over this whole LEGO is better than gold thing. When I see a collection of dioramas marked as UCS, all I can say is "meh"
  5. from promobricks. yikes.
  6. Yesterday
  7. No, don’t go by the thumbnail, he actually “glazes” (that’s what the kids call it these days) all over this set. Besides the price. He pointed out some really good and insightful parts of the build. That is why I said he is actually getting me hyped for the set. I wasn’t being facetious. Jim Jones 😂
  8. Has there ever been a set this clown hasn’t panned? I’m not even watching that video because I know it will be nothing but a whiner fest, and then the YouTube comments will just be an echo chamber parroting what he says. He’s like the Jim jones of LEGO reviewers.
  9. I don’t see the value. They took the $80 dioramas and cramped them down in size to fit. It’s 9000 pieces but a majority appear to go towards the frame. There’s a lot of dead space that could’ve been used better. The elevator shafts for example. Not a lot to get excited about IMO. Kind of a joke really.
  10. As many on this forum and other places have discussed over the years at some point Lego was gonna release a $1K set.........I'm guessing they figured this might as well be the one
  11. M&R kinda getting me hyped up for it now 🤪
  12. The rumored GWP Tie Fighter might get you to $800
  13. I watched a comparison review to the MILF with cost adjustment based on inflation from 2017 they come out to about the same price and they are almost the same size 31” in diameter. I am not sure if all of the smaller SW diorama sets did so well that they think this is what we want, but I think the smaller set affordability makes them available to a wider audience. This does make sense for display ability vs a huge sphere and maybe it will be the first in a series of UCS diorama sets. At $1K it’s definitely not a buy for me but $800 and I’m in for one. ETA: When I heard it was going to be a diorama I had hoped it would be like the Batman Shadow Box that when closed looks like the DS2 set and then you open it to see what we have now.
  14. I actually love it! But too expensive
  15. I did not hold any expectations aside from being large. It is neat for a possibly wall mounted collection of dioramas ....that we kind of already have from over the years individually. This is the sort of build I might expect to see at a Brickfair as a habitat showcasing all the well-known scenes of the Death Star within the homage of one. I wonder what the backside looks like. Also, where is the hot tub at? Haha. At least it is different from the previous iterations ....while simultaneously doing the same thing. I am certainly not the market for this (and still a cheap ass penny pinching son of a brick). It's okay, just not for me.
  16. Less than half; its a slice. Or a Core Sample
  17. So it's $1000 for half a Death Star??
  18. 75419 - 2025 UCS Death Star $999.99
  19. Last week
  20. 🤣 I reuse some of my shipping boxes from previous purchases. The heat gun makes quick work of getting old shipping labels off.
  21. Yeah, you are good, but what’s up with the heat gun 😂
  22. I have multiple of set 75276 (Stormtrooper helmet). Only one of them has a different box (non taped box). Seeking confirmation that both boxes were used for this set?
