waden34 Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 I was not a fan of this bomber until I saw this MOC. It is truly amazing and I'll definitely be purchasing it! Sticking with the new trilogy ships, I am guessing that SB00401 will be the V-4X-D. To me, it's one of the few new ones that are somewhat interesting. Whatever it is, I'm sure it'll be awesome though. Quote

The V-4X-D is an interesting starting point.. but I have already seen some MOCs about it Quote
opetista Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Ok lets keep with the bet.... a TIE Dagger? Quote
macaron35 Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 Almost 3 weeks to go before the release of the instructions for the B-project ? :) can’t wait Quote
sandtrooper Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) Here is a video featuring the bomber and the man himself! Resistance Bomber Edited January 19, 2020 by sandtrooper Quote
TwoSolitudes Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 I see instructions! Can we order them yet? Quote

Resistance Bomber I am drooling on my keyboard frankly, scenes about the movies and ISDs are really impressive, but when it comes down to ships, this one is probably (in my own opinion of course) of one or not to say, most probably the best so far, such details... it's amazing it will be a challeging build for me (it took me months to build up the MF 75912 and hopefully, all the bags were already sorted by TLG), but ordering parts and then sorting them out will take me weeks, plus months for building, but in the end, it will be the masterpiece of my collection I cannot say enough how Mirko is talented, nice work, great video Quote

Back in the day I saw some other videos of conventions -mainly in Italy- where seemingly the actual book was shown, but when I asked Mirko about that, he told me that the book shown in the conventions is actually some kind of prototype/pre production model, that then had some corrections/ammendments to do and apparently is not the real thing...at least was not fully completed/final version completed at the time of some of the videos being filmed and the "book" being wrapped in plastic.

macaron35 Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 the journalist says in the video at 5'35 that Mirko is still working on the instructions and this is just a sample Quote

I only completed his Tie Silencer so far, and I am still to start with his U Wing project ...nevertheless I can not wait to get the instructions for this Bomber... Mirko's passion and skills are awesome. Quote
treffer21 Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Hey mirco. Any update (instruction) can't wait! Quote
Frizzlefry25 Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 You know I shouldn't be surprised because I have built both his U-Wing and Tie Silencer, and even though this is not my favorite ship, his pictures are amazing. But after seeing that video, Holy Crap! It looks so much bigger and better than I imagined. I may have to go 3-3! Quote
macaron35 Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Currently building Kylo Ren's command shuttle and next my build will be this Resistance Bomber :) can't wait ! Quote

For me LEGO and Star Wars are two passions that have accompanied me since I was 5 years old (1978). Unfortunately I am late with the instructions of the B-Project as 2019 was a very busy year for me because of work and some health problems of a family member. But I'm working hard and sooner or later the instructions will be finished. Have faith!! In addition, in the last period I have worked a lot on my last MOC that I will present next February 7 ... I love black ;-) Quote
macaron35 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Sorry to hear that :( instructions can wait you know... what is important is for you and your family to be well Quote

sokewl Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I can't wait for the bomber. I hope the next moc will be the night buzzard aka the ship of knights of ren. Hopefully minifig scale. bring on Feb 7 :) Quote

I love black ;-) What a teaser! Seriously though, yes, so many of us love your work and the photo skills just polish it off. I will definitely be one of the first in the USA to buy your B-project manual. :) For the next MOC.... here are our clues: "I love black ;-)" "It is something that no one has yet done on a UCS scale :-)" - so it's been done before "Small clue .. my next project (SB00401) will have 3470 pieces ..." - so something smaller than the Resistance Bomber as the # of pieces is less but is still UCS scale "Model #: SB00401" From his website splash page for this project: "..it works..", Anakin?? He's made only ships so far... i.e. no land vehicles, does the trend continue? But not: V-4X-D Sebulba's podracer UCS Gonk :( My insights are.... a version of a TIE fighter but I'm doubtful since we already have Kylo's (we've already got UCS Advanced, Interceptor and standard TIE.... although interesting since LEGO's new contest/vote for next UCS includes a TIE Bomber...), possibly a Scimitar but that's more grey, Kylo's or Krennic's shuttle but they seem to already have MOC attempts, and lastly my best guess is... I'm honestly at a loss since each one of these ideas I've seen some UCS MOC version of.... you got us Mirko. :) If we had one more hint perhaps we'd nail it! Quote
macaron35 Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 Mmmmm black ship ? Could be: Night buzzard, TIE/es assault shuttle or a first order drop ship ;) Quote
GAC Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 The Identifier for his projects is always related to the project. SB Bomber, TS Tie Striker so the key is "SB" Quote

I am at a loss as well, his previous three projects leveraged an existing set as a starting point, and in comparing the clues to currently lego offerings, I don't see anything matching! Cant wait regardless! getting close..... Quote
