UCS Kintan Strider Speeder Bike
As featured in the Book of Boba Fett • by Corey Schaaf | BrickWars.net

It's been fun putting this build together. I've worked with so many different people on executing this project. From working with a manufacturer for a custom case, to my signature Printed UCS Plaques, the unique serialized tiles that's different for every build, to the UCS Stickers from a company in the UK - to the final print production of my Limited Edition UCS Instruction manual — I can just about call this one complete.

• Pieces: 2,285 + 2 Minifigs 
• Weight: 71.5 oz | 4.7lbs 
• Width: 57.6 cm | 22.7 in 
• Length: 25.6 cm | 10.1 in
• Height: 24.8 cm | 9.7 in 
• Estimated Part Costs: $375-$450

My manual is built in the same way my original UCS instruction manual for the Resistance Troop Transport ship was designed but in a much smaller print run. Only 150 copies of my manual will be available. Email subscribers will be notified when the pre-sale starts, so if you're interested, I would encourage you to visit https://BrickWars.net/moc-bw3001 and signup via the email link at the bottom of the page.  You can find all the details and specifications on my website for this build at https://brickwars.net/moc-bw3001.  

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! You can also give me a follow me on https://www.instagram.com/brickwarsnet/ as well.

Unusual choice for a UCS build, I love it! The level of detail is phenomenal. (that manual looks very high quality as well!)

Thanks for the compliment Teddy.  I think there are so many talented designers out there; it's often hard to find something that hasn't been done before - or done before incredibly well.  Speeder bikes are usually simple and done at minifig scale.  When I saw the Book of Boba Fett, there was a side profile shot that had so much detail, I figured it was the perfect MOC to scaleup.  It's was a lot of fun building.  I'm a designer by trade so I'm very familiar with publishing tools. I did my other build of the Resistance Troop Transport Ship in the exact same way.

Very cool moc! The engine details are awesome. I really like the display stand too. The premium printed instructions are a nice touch too.

Thank you. My first MOC I ever put together was by Star Bricks.  I love his print instructions and his build so much I wanted to match his quality when doing my own custom work.

Wow! Some very professional work on display here. Good to approach some source material nobody has covered and especially at the UCS scale. While the speeder looks awesome, your printed booklet is just stunning in every way. I can only imagine the amount of editing to make absolutely sure everything was good for expensive printing. The pictures, steps, and format are very clean and on par or better quality than I've seen from Lego instruction manuals.

Thank you! I'm glad you appreciate the hard work. To be honest,  I spend just as much time on the manual as I do the design of the MOC. I want people to have the best build experience possible and also have an amazing rare moc at the same time. 

I'm a web ux/ui designer so I'm very familiar with publishing tools and the print process.
