Liking this MOC and I think it'll look awesome if it was made out of real Lego. Also, what software did you use? My version of LDD doesn't have all those bricks.

Thanks for that, I can remember now but both figures are People should stop hating on the geonosian, it obviously isn't a final model. I for one think that Ki-Adi Mundi's headpiece looks sub-par but I assume TLG will change it.

The mandalorian nearly took my vote, if only the head wasn't so darn creepy. Also, who is Embo and who is Sugi?

Stop Motions, Comics, Backgrounds, MOC's (i.e. a small scale hangar). Mini's have allways had their uses otherwise they wouldn't exist.

Like it, Legonater. I allways have had a soft spot for the gags that poke a little fun at TLG's shortcomings.

Great set up and a nice pic. At first I saw Boba Fett and worked out what it was but as I looked in the shadows I spotted the other Bounty Hunters. One thing though, I'd make it just a little brighter if possible.

Good point. There's a fair chance of a new Dooku, next year but we'll have to wait and see. I am loosing faith on the 3D star wars though, I've been hearing news about it for at least 5 years now.

Don't forget that the old Mini venator had many more pieces so it's understandable that this would be less detailed.

Something tells me that it'll be a while until we see characters like Dooku in a non-CW style. George Lucas said there'd be at least 5 series' of it so chances are slim for another couple of years.

Sorry about the misunderstanding.What I mean is if they release a future set with Yoda (as an example) not set in the clone wars then I wonder how the figure will look. They cn't exactly use the old one, it's a bit outdated but the CW version would be out of place.

Nice picture, Skafte. Is that the stormtrooper alarm clock? If so, I like the way you obscured the clock. Either way this did make me chuckle.

Right now I'm putting my vote to Shaak Ti. Whilst I may not be purchasing her (due to a high asking price) I have to say she stands out in the first wave. However I do hope the voting is reset or a new poll is opened up for wave 2, I have to say there are many tempting characters coming out but I couldn't put my vote to them because of the blurry prelim pictures not representing the final thing.

I have to agree with you about the ATT. I suppose I have a unique look on sets these days, defending the much hated Ewok Attack and now this Venator.

I meant Commander Colt, only seen breifly. And I do wonder how TLG will make characters from films (like Yoda) after making their CW counterparts.

Perhaps wave 1 could be dedicated to RotS and a slightly early wave 2 (May - for the anniversary) could be dedicated to RotJ. EDIT: Also, brickbuilder , I think in series 3 episode 1 there were a couple high ranking clones in phase 2 armour so maybe they will start encorporating them in the coming episodes/series'.

I wouldn't call the venator flat. I think TLG were going for a sloped look, hard to do on that scale. Essentially, using layers instead of traditianol sloped bricks, the venator stays at 1 brick height in the centre and sloping down. Not too bad considering the scale.

Really? I don't find either set especially well designed but you can't expect much with large ships and a small piece count IMO.

I think that is the reason why every set that contains a 'droid arm' allways has a spare. A wise move by TLG but not a permenant fix.

Thanks for all the kind words, guys. I've been using this forum as a source of information for a while now and allways thought that this was one of the best communities around.

That battle droid is amazing and that's just a preview. I can't wait to see one in a more accurate colour scheme.

I haven't seen them either, hopefully they'll be widely released. I especially think those venetors could come in handy.

This set seems out of place in the current wave, the only original trilogy set if I'm not mistaken. Nice review though, thanks for the comparison.

Lookung at the pictures, I think the new ship is a little bit larger (and I do prefer the colour scheme) but it is definately still a remake. I wouldn't call remaking a bad thing - lest we forget some of the best star wars sets these days are remakes. Take the millenium falcon for example - if we sticked with the 2001 iteration then it wouldn't seem very impressive. Why do people loathe remakes so much?

Nice MOD, something tells me you won't be the only one modding this to add more droids. I would suggest to sacrifice a couple of droids for the sake of a gun rack, though.

Thanks for the response, guys. It was dusty because I just brought it out of storage (after a long dry spell without lego). After canibalising my Sentai Fortress and Dark Fortress (my biggest sets), I think I have enough resources to put the set on a black-grey-white scale (with red). I'll begin dusting as well but the tiling shall have to wait now. And this is kind of a play set up - I have intentions to make a comic series using pictures of this MOC when it's finished.
