I have just wrapped up building the 10143 and I can say without question that this build was a challenge. There are a myriad of issues people have already mentioned but for me the biggest headaches were keeping up with brick placement on the two unfinished sections, attachment of the middle ring, and the seemingly random dropping (to the floor) of the lower unfinished section. I solved the latter with strategically placed zip ties. While probably frowned on at least the bottom section won't fall off again. I am very satisfied with being able to build the set after putting it off for a while but it takes first place IMO for having the most issues by fault of design. I tried to upload pics of the zip ties but I can't upload to the site for some reason...

I recently finished bricklinking a UCS Death Star II, and finally got around to putting it up the pictures. https://www.flickr.c...th/27481130204/ Death Star photos by North White, on Flickr A shot of the front Death Star photos by North White, on Flickr Backside Death Star photos by North White, on Flickr A picture of the "Eye." I misordered 2x4 left wedges in dark grey, so I went with it Death Star photos by North White, on Flickr The lil' Super star destroyer included for scale. I modded it a bit because I didn't like the conning tower design with the binoculars. Overall, 10143 is a very fun build, and mostly uses cheap pieces. Mostly. I just went with a dark grey 10x10 dish on top because light grey is way pricey. Otherwise, the main problem was finding enough grey wings from the same seller. That and the fact that I ordered most of the parts at 1am after work, and so I messed up quite a few of the orders .
