MPT
The Mobile Power Turtle is a slow-moving but reliable power source for all of your space exploration and/or colonization needs. Just have a forklift on standby in case it tips over.
Very nice work. I'm impressed with your approach to those tricky angles along the back of the Tumbler. Those gave me quite a headache when building mine.
Man this is a tough choice...
Had to pick 88283 Hair Mid-Length Tousled with Center Part - Tan and 85961 Minifig, Armor Breastplate with Back Stud - Black

Really excellent builds, everyone. This was really hard to narrow down.
I built mine for the skater. Anyone familiar with the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games will recognize the inspiration here.
The skater is meant to be placed here riding his skateboard through the air. The 1x1 clip tile attaches to the skateboard and can be rotated for different poses.
Does this set not come with the little cart they carried burned Anakin in? The manual looks to show a picture of the pilot hilariously carrying Anakin in his arms... wouldn't that be a logical inclusion here?
I'm not really liking this set. It seems like a ship no one was really clamoring for, and it does not seem executed well.
This is really cool! I'm really digging the expanded possibilities here, though I'd like more versatility with technic half pins. Most of my builds involve a half pin stuck in the bottom of a 1x1 brick, or something similar.
Like this:
Those are some beautiful minifigs. Only complaint is how they seem to overdo the wrinkles on clothing, and the level of detail is a bit too high for what I like to consider LEGO's art style.
That Boba is so tempting. Maybe I'll end up buying this set for the minifigs and selling the ship. I don't need 3 Slave 1's.
EDIT: ...or not. $79.99? Are they insane?
This is one of my alltime favorite sets. It was a blast to put together and to play with, had a nice assortment of useful green parts, had a great minifig and was just an all-around win IMO. I recently re-built it and it is sitting proudly with my collection.
