legomilk Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Hello. 10198 is a fake set http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/agi2007/...ter/10198-1.jpg Quote
Bossk Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) PIC There's write "MOC" on this pic Edited March 21, 2009 by Bossk Quote
ILikePi Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) You can easily tell that that's a fake set...the picture is blurry, and the puctuation of "Obi-Wan's jedifighter & Hyperspace Ring" gives it away. Also, sets in the 10000 series are UCS sets, and that doesn't look like one. And I think that Bossk meant to say that the word "MOC" is on the link that he gave.

Buttons Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Yeah, um I found this picture about a month ago and posted it in the star wars new set topic and then everyone else told me it was fake aswell. So old news. Quote
KimT Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Perhaps we should keep track of those "fake" sets? If you find any, then post them in this topic for further reference. Quote
ILikePi Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) I got these two this fake set picture from a post in the "LEGO Star Wars 2009 Sets and Rumours" topic. Note that I wasn't the one who found it them. NOTE: The strike-throughs are there because I can't find a picture of the fake Jedi Starfighter set (because Brickshelf isn't working) was removed from Brickshelf. This picture that I posted might also be removed from Brickshelf later. Edited March 21, 2009 by ILikePi Quote
RileyC Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 I know there fakes but if they were real id buy them. Who ever did them they done some great work Quote
Darth Legolas Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 If this was better designed and made the TLG way, I'd buy it. But sadly, it's a really bad fake. Hoo-rah! Quote
Legoman Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Hello.10198 is a fake set http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/agi2007/...ter/10198-1.jpg This nice... i would actully really like to have this as a set Anyway, here's the starfighter one: Quote
KinGanon Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Anyway, here's the starfighter one: That can't be real, the flick fire missiles are missing Quote
RileyC Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 That can't be real, the flick fire missiles are missing ha so true KinGanon! its annoying that they have to put flick fire missiles in everything!! Quote
prateek Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 thats so fake, thats just obiwans JSF from ep.II put in a recoloured hyper ring thingy Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I dont want a set like that for a UCS. Its really ugly. Quote

This picture that I posted might also be removed from Brickshelf later. I guess the Vulture Droid doesn't look too fake because the box art looks quite smooth but I think they took the feature from Ahsokas Starfighter and Vulture droid Also in the 10198 picture, at the bottom of the Hyperspace ring you could see a green plate! Which also gives away the fact that it is a fake set Edited March 22, 2009 by CommanderCody77 Quote
RileyC Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 This nice... i would actully really like to have this as a set Anyway, here's the starfighter one: Saesee Tiin had a green starfighter anyway. (just a useless piece of information from wookieepedia! ) Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Hyperspace ring you could see a green plate! Which also gives away the fact that it is a fake set Even though we are aware it is fake, I looked closely and saw that it is part of the model. Good idea, that is usually the giveaway on these mocs.

CommanderCody77 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 These fakes are actually pretty good. Not all of them, the most easy to see that it is fake is Saesee Tinn's starfighter because the box art doesn't look smooth and it doesn't have flick fire missiles Quote
Derek Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) Not all of them, the most easy to see that it is fake (...) it doesn't have flick fire missiles Ain't that the truth! I doubt we will see another starfighter without flickfire missles from the Star Wars line. Forget starfighters, pretty much every set! Edited March 22, 2009 by darthperson Quote
The Who Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Ain't that the truth! I doubt we will see another starfighter without flickfire missles from the Star Wars line. Forget starfighters, pretty much every set! I was just thinking, what if TLG started putting them on things like the Endor speeder bikes? Dewbacks? Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I was just thinking, what if TLG started putting them on things like the Endor speeder bikes? Dewbacks? I would throw out my lego and become a crackwhore. Never ever! Quote
prateek Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I would throw out my lego and become a crackwhore. Never ever! eewwww natman8000 as a crackwhore, eewwww! but that will be pretty bad on dewbacks, you'll see the stormtroopers interrogating jawas for the droids and randomly the dewback fires! Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 eewwww natman8000 as a crackwhore, eewwww! but that will be pretty bad on dewbacks, you'll see the stormtroopers interrogating jawas for the droids and randomly the dewback fires! Do you even know who I am? Your pathetic humor is stifling mine! Quote
Ras 74 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 The first set in this topic is designed from True Dimension. As seen here. Thats where I got the idea to build another version myself at one point. Way befor TLC made Obis blue JSF with the Booster Ring. -Ras- Quote
CloneMe Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Hello.10198 is a fake set http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/agi2007/...ter/10198-1.jpg Did anyone beleive this was a real set. Just by looking at it you can tell it isnt. First the Starfighter is Obi's from episode 2 that was released oh so long ago. Quote
