Derek Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 I was just browsing Brickshelf and was blown away by this Republic Shuttle MOC. It seems to be Minifig scale. *LINK* NOTE: This isn't mine, I just thought I'd share it with everyone. -darthperson Quote
JimBee Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Very nice! The white looks much, much better than the grey. I think, even without this beautiful design, TLG's RAS would have looked a lot better in white. Quote
CloneMe Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Yes. I saw this as well. This is very nice. Im going to try this as well. Quote
Millacol88 Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Thats incredible. I would have preferred if TLC had released this as a larger-scale set such as this rather than the scaled-down one we got. Quote
Darth Legolas Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Yeah I saw it, and yeah, it's amazing! Props to the guy who did it. It's definitely minifig scale, but I still like the one Lego did. If they show a pic of the interior, I'll then be impressed. Quote
darkrebellion Posted December 29, 2008 Posted December 29, 2008 Awesome find and MOC darthperson . Well it almost looks minifig scale but it seems like the cockpit is a little bit too big and the engines a little bit too small (And yeah I saw the comparision pic and it looks the same like jow I am describing it ). Also I am happy with the TLC version of this ship. Sure the color looks somewhat wrong but it still looks great. Also I prefer by far that the TLC release this ship in this size cause I think it makes a better medium set than a $150 one . Quote
pedro Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 A really nice MOC there. I reckon Caleb has got a sweet-spot for the Republic Attack Shuttle before building it this it this size! In 7 days too... must have been at it night and day Asides from a couple of scale issues [engines could be a wee bit bigger as darkrebellion mentioned] it's a very impressive model - it takes some skill to build a ship like that from scratch. Good job! I think after all the comments concerning the official RAS's colour scheme, someone should mod it swapping out the light bley for white and get it posted here a.s.a.p... I'd be intrigued to see the comparison! Quote
ditto Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Also I prefer by far that the TLC release this ship in this size cause I think it makes a better medium set than a $150 one . agreed. TLG had to balance cost and design and though what finally came out was not perfect, it was far more affordable than if it were MF-scale. Quote
General Magma Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Wow..that's great! Whenever I get the RAS, I'll try to put white instead of light bley on it. Quote
