This is one where you really don't get an idea of the scale until you realize that each engine is the size of a beer bottle.

@StarBricks Hey Mirko, just following up on the emails and even FB msg I sent to you. Wondering if you still have these - really would like one.

Greetings, same as the above user :) sent you an request for the instructions on the website w/o getting a response for quite some time now.

really looking forward on getting my hands on a copy :)

I apologize to everyone for the delay but these days I'm away for work and I'm having trouble answering emails. As soon as I come back, I answer. Sorry again.

Thank you for the update @Starbricks :)

Cheers for the update!

Mirko, just sent you a note, sorry for the delay, but found your note in my spam box. Really looking forward to putting this together, it's the first MOC I have ever decided to buy into. Really fantastic job. 

That thing is sweet, anybody know how big it really is and how much it ways?

Thanks @Azrielsc

My book arrived! Awesome.  It's a quality publication. 

Now to get the bricks....

The TS project looks great as well, but just not enough of a fan of that particular ship. Any hint about what will be revealed on 07-02-2019?

@bataleon Did you manage to find the time to build this beast of a ship? Can't wait for the next MOC by Starbricks!

Love to see everyday the U-Wing on my display before going to work. :)

 

Very nice display.  How do you like the b-wing?  Sorry if off topic but am thinking of picking one up.

It's a beautiful model, not such great building experience like Mirko's, but a must for a UCS collector!
