lenzie Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Hi everyone - for those who already have or plan to buy and build the UCS Luke Skywalker's Landspeeder (set #75341), I've created an 'Enhanced Edition' of the model that you may be interested in! Fixes and enhancements are: - Reduced the length (by 2 studs) of the overly long nose of the standard model to give it a more accurate & balance look. - Added forward and rear removeable panels to show new internal details including power plant and anti-grav units in the rear; and fuel tank, sub-frame, piping and cabling details at the front. (I used the X-34 Landspeeder diagram from the Star Wars Complete Vehicles 'amazing cross sections' book as my reference when designing the internal details.) - Fixed the left hand side & top wobbly engines issue. Modification instructions are on Rebrickable here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-126009/Simon Lenz/ucs-landspeeder-enhanced-edition/#details Video mod explanation & walkthrough can be found here: https://youtu.be/MYEt0IpRcI8 Full photo gallery here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/SimonLenz/ucs-luke-skywalkers-landspeeder---enhanced-edition Quote

MaximillianRebo Posted October 25, 2022 Posted October 25, 2022 Great work on all the mods. I don't know what specs Lego are working from but their recent Landspeeders all have long noses. I modded my 2020 playset one with Ron McPhatty's design and it makes the proportions much better. Good job doing the same on this model. Quote
