sigpro Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 There is no old and new LBG. Old one was Light Gray, new one (relatively... the change took place in 2003, so 12 years ago) is Light Bluish Gray. I read somewhere that, in 2010-12, a colour change in the Lego palette enlightened the Light bluish gray. Quote
TK924 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 I finally replaced all the blue parts from the 6206. I went with mostly DBG on the inside and LBG on the outside. Thanks to all for the help and suggestions! Quote
Vectormatic Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Looks good! could do with some minor modding (some cheese-slopes here and there to tone down the blockiness), but that is a big improvement on the Blue-black original Quote

Azrielsc Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Lovely! This was exactly the same as what I went through when I was replacing the blue bricks on my UCS 7181 TIE Interceptor so that it matches my UCS 10175 TIE Advanced! :) I decided to use LBG bricks instead of DBG bricks because the DBG bricks do not really match up with the older grey bricks.

samurai-turtle Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 The funny thing is today I rebuild my TIE Interceptor. Personally i am fine with the blue (we can pretend that it was painted, couldn't we). What I do thing need an improvement is the wing connections. When I was swooshing around the TIE the wings rattled around more than I liked them to. Plus, I think the wing tip guns could be improved, to look better than it does. Quote
