Posted June 7, 201212 yr Just received notification that this project Creator Sets: Star Wars Arena Beasts has been reviewed by the Lego reps and now published in Lego CUUSOO! Please support if you want these beasts to become real sets. Posted: June 7, 2012 The Petranaki arena, also known as the Arena of Justice and commonly referred to as the Geonosian execution arena, was brought about by both a need for entertainment in the rigid Geonosian society, and an efficient way of disposing of otherwise resource-draining prisoners. The most popular attractions used deadly beasts in combat, resulting in the extinction of some of the more crowd pleasing creatures on Geonosis. CLICK ON THIS TO SEE THE LARGER PIC!

June 7, 201212 yr WOW! I wondered how you could afford all of those Genosian warriors but then in the last shot I can see how you got so many, nice technique. The scene, like all of you builds is epic. So much to look at and so many details, well done Apcin.
June 7, 201212 yr That is a simply fantastic MOC. The monsters are superbly built, but my favorite part is the texture of the walls. You gave them such a natural look that can be hard to do with LEGO bricks. Excellent work AC.
June 7, 201212 yr Impressive work! I like how you made the Geonosians' heads with bricks; they work really well. All it lacks is an inner corridor with a shadowy figure with a purple lightsabre getting to the tribune.
June 7, 201212 yr As usual amazing work ACPin I see you go for the classic yellow minifig instead of "new" fleshies
June 7, 201212 yr Talaga namang nakakamangha ang ganda! Bravo once again AC, another grand spectacle of a build this is, and one of my favorite SW settings too. I know you have a penchant for "maximizing" your builds, so is there any chance we will we see this particular scene in this arena? (again another personal favorite)
June 7, 201212 yr My goodness me, I'm just...well... . (That's my mind being blown out of my ears). The little MOC Geonosians are really effective. Are there new Geonosians mixed with the old ones?
June 7, 201212 yr Oh, wow....this is one of the most amazing MOCs I've ever seen! I love the details on the walls. This - saying that this is fantastic doesn't even scratch the surface.
June 7, 201212 yr Amazing work as usual, Mr Pin! I absolutely love the shaping of the arches along the top of the walls and all the rockwork.
June 7, 201212 yr This is superb ACPin! It's one of your best yet; the scale of it is amazing and you must have spent hours on it. I especially like the custom built Geonosians, they really add to it (and look like wombles...!) Truly epic work from a Lego Master. Five star rating

So much to look at and so many details, well done Apcin. There's a lot of Imperial officers that had to be sacrificed to achieve that!

You gave them such a natural look that can be hard to do with LEGO bricks. Excellent work AC. I tried to make them look as organic as possible. There are actually four basic wall units, the other two are almost identical to but mirror images of two from the four basic ones. On 6/7/2012 at 5:58 AM, LuxorV said: Impressive work!

The corridor is actually there and Mace is just waiting inside but not shown in any of the pics. On 6/7/2012 at 6:13 AM, Jedi master Brick said: This is brilliant. So many tan pieces . Your Mocs never fail to amaze me Between this and the hangar, my tan brick supply is almost exhausted.

Nice to see you back on the boards KimT. On 6/7/2012 at 8:56 AM, KielDaMan said: Talaga namang nakakamangha ang ganda!

Haven't planned on another scene yet to make use of the background as I intend to bring this to some shows. One issue I have is the space to accomodate more action in the arena.

Are there new Geonosians mixed with the old ones? Yes, there's a mix of the old and new Geonosians together with the brick-built ones.

Foot print is two by four large baseplates and I really need more space... On 6/7/2012 at 1:30 PM, gotoAndLego said: You mean you didn't do the entire arena? Pfffftt. Just kidding, its great. If I had the space for it, I would have done it! On 6/7/2012 at 3:26 PM, M<0><0<DSWIM said: Amazing work as usual, Mr Pin! I absolutely love the shaping of the arches along the top of the walls and all the rockwork. The design of the arena essentially was made to be consistent with the earlier smaller MOC and the balcony put together. On 6/7/2012 at 7:28 PM, Lobot said: This is superb ACPin!

Truly epic work from a Lego Master. Five star rating It was one of the issues that I had to face when I posted the final teaser pic. How am I going to fill up all the space with just a dozen or so Geonosians? AC
June 8, 201212 yr Sorry to off topic post in this glorious thread, but what 'language' is that?(Kiel/AC talking)
June 8, 201212 yr AC, I bet if you posted this on the CUUSOO website, it would make roughly 3,000 supporters in under an hour! This is good stuff, man!!
