Amazing rendition of my favorite vehicle design from my absolute least favorite Star Wars movie. Really don’t like TLJ but I actually wouldn’t mind having this is in my collection. Amazing angles and detail in this one

Fell in love with this model ever since I saw it on Rebelscums April fools joke. Now getting to see more images AND finding out instructions are available... I might have to give this one a shot!

Yeah, I remember that. You could even tell due to the Disney logo not being on the box. Due to the delays, we knew about the Slave for like, a year or something. It was insane

Don't forget the Slave I. We knew that one was coming for a long time iirc. Set number and everything

How much are the parts to bricklink? I’m liking the look of this thing

To be fair, an AT-TE was literally released a year prior. LEGO probably just wanted to throw something in extra to show off the feature, so they just kinda randomly threw in an AT-OT.

Fantastic cargo shuttle. I still personally prefer the one by renegade clone but yours is more accurate to the real model and looks better to scale. Any word on the piece count?

Honestly, the AT-AT probably isn’t as impossible as people think A lot of people see Cavegods model and freak out but you gotta remember, the Cavegod AT-AT is actually too big for minifigures. An actual minifig scale AT-AT could probably work pretty well, with the only real sacrifice being leg posability

I mean the hulkbuster got found in a store and was literally built by someone before we got a reveal of anything. Price, piece count, anything. EDIT: I JUST REALIZED THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT THE SAIL BARGE WOW STUPID ME. Definitely bait but man, a sail barge would be great

If instructions come out, I’m gonna probably just find my own way to make the connector pieces skinnier. Rest of the model is too good to pass up :)

For real it looks great. The bottom pieces connecting the legs look a bit too fat, but the rest is fantastic. I especially like the greyish-blue used for extra flavour in there.

I think the shuttle is more likely to be re-released than be remade

It’s not. The Falcon is 34m long while the Slave I is 21m long. The whole confusion with that was that the original ucs falcon plaque said 28m on it. The Slave is slightly below minifig scale but it doesn’t look too out of place

Exactly. The Y-Wing is noticeably larger than an X-Wing. While this new set is probably a little too big, it is close enough to the point where it’s literally advertised with a figure in the cockpit. If it was THAT out of scale, I don’t think they would’ve done that

A-Wing is overdue. The Y-Wing was the 1 I was really holding out hope for when it comes to a remake. Now I got it, I’ve really started to feel the whole “I want something new” thing. The A-Wing, TIE Bomber and the AT-AT are the 3 biggest ones that really need one

I think it’s a little bigger than minifig scale iirc. I’m pretty sure the real one should be as long as the Slave I

I’ve been starting to worry that the set doesn’t exist. So glad it does

None yet. It’s either coming out in July or getting revealed late (kinda like the ucs hulkbuster)

If it doesn’t exist, then there will be so many unanswered questions. Why is this the only May the 4th with no new set? What is 75181? Is the ucs line even continuing ect. This whole situation is really confusing

Possibly. I’ve also seen rumours that it’s releasing in July, too. Just have to wait and see

Are you freakin kidding me... Lepin gotta be stopped

I couldn’t find anything

The Falcon is their own design though. It's a matter of it being understocked due to LEGO not knowing the demand

Man, I'm not a huge fan of The Last Jedi, but this is fantastic. This is the first UCS Silencer I've seen and it might just be the definitive one!

Yes, it doesn't affect anything. Also, almost all the red pieces can be switched out for any other color
