Faefrost Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 OK strange question. I know that there are official Lego plans out there somewhere for Dash Rendar's YT-2400 Outrider, the "MF like" Smuggler ship featured in the Shadows of the Empire series from the 90's. It has been shown as an official alternate build using the parts of one of the Imperial Star Destroyer sets. Now my question, does anyone know if they ever have presented actual building instructions and/or a parts list for the alternate build to make this ship? It would be a really neat ship to MOC up and sit on the shelf next to the MF. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Found 'em on KimT's flickr. (it's an alt for 6211, if you didn't know which ISD it was from) Quote
Janglais Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Cheers for this thread, and thanks for the details regarding instructions on building this ship - I was actually about to ask the question. Have always been a fan of SOTE and have just started re-reading the book. Quote
Faefrost Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 Many thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for Quote
into the blue Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Finally got around to putting this together today. Jeez, what a fiddly build! https://www.facebook.com/#!/sean.thomas.1257/media_set?set=a.10201789110066489.1073741837.1143884522&type=1 Quote
kr-lik Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 heh... that don't look too good tbh... they should do a redo :d Quote
Only Sinner Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 The Outrider actually looks better than the 6211 ISD does. Not much, but just a little. I didn't know Kim T had such an involved flikr page! Quote
kr-lik Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 does it? I quite liked the deisng of ISD but then again I want the UCS one more and I see where this one lacks now ;) but still... Quote
into the blue Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 I have to admit, it's a bit of a fugly ship. It's extremely delicate, the top and bottom plates are held on by hinges on the outer rim, even look at 'em the wrong way and they fall off, and other plates are held on by tentative 1x1s. I put it together out of curiousity but I doubt it's going to stay on the shelf for long, especially now that I've found plans for the Skyhopper. Quote

Rook Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Built one of my own about 5-10 years ago. It was crap compared to these. :D Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Hmmm, quite a nice ship. Great job on yours Nom Carver! Quote
Brickdoctor Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 My stance: at least they made a very decent effort to include a large alt model, and it was an obscure but memorable piece of canon. I wish they'd still do that. Quote
Nom Carver Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) Hmmm, quite a nice ship. Great job on yours Nom Carver! Thanks, since I looked at that Outrider on the rear of the SD box, I always wanted to reproduce it but never had the guts to touch my falcon, I think the new one could prove more usefull, maybe somebody could try to use the very same bricks of the set and share it. My stance: at least they made a very decent effort to include a large alt model, and it was an obscure but memorable piece of canon. I wish they'd still do that. Totally agree.
