Anio Posted May 20, 2013 Author Posted May 20, 2013 Deal - is the paypal address the one listed? Yes, it is also my paypal. Quote
deanorth Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 great stuff, I soon as I'll finish the star destroyer and the AT-AT, this one is next on my list. Quote
Phoib Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 I just bought the instructions, they are sure worth the money! But, when you plan to build it, it contains a large amount of the infamous 298c05, light blueish gray base with light blueish gray lever. Quote

It is the same thing. ;) Quote
cei Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Can you highlight a few of the differences from the older version? Externally it looks very similar (changes to the dark red stripes on the 'wings' at rear, greebling?) Quote

Zaeley Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Is it just me or is there a gun missing in this picture? The side turbolaser. Quote
Anio Posted May 21, 2013 Author Posted May 21, 2013 Is it just me or is there a gun missing in this picture? The side turbolaser. Well seen. I thought none would notice that. Well, is it not important, they are in the instruction.;) Quote
jmagaletta Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 I can't decide whether or not to pull the trigger on this. It comes down to two things. What are the chances of TLG making an official UCS set and do I have the time/patience/money to bricklink the parts. Are any others facing this dilemma? Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 My time is very limited so Bricklinking is out of the question at this time. Quote
hawkwolf22 Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) can you send me details as setechnic were awkward and I couldn't read the parts list and it has to be adobe compatible at [snip] Edited May 25, 2013 by Brickdoctor Removed email address. Quote
Anio Posted May 23, 2013 Author Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) can you send me details as setechnic were awkward and I couldn't read the parts list and it has to be adobe compatible at [snip] Seriously ? Don't you think our e-mails are enough ? PS : of course you can not read the part file. It is not for you, it is for Bricklink.... Edited May 25, 2013 by Brickdoctor Removed email address from quote.

TheGreenMachine Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Me and my family might try this beast. What size will it approx. be? And are there templates available in the instructions for printing the UCS-style display? Quote
Anio Posted May 23, 2013 Author Posted May 23, 2013 It is 112 cm long. Yes, the UCS display card is provided. Quote
Studebricker Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I can't decide whether or not to pull the trigger on this. It comes down to two things. What are the chances of TLG making an official UCS set and do I have the time/patience/money to bricklink the parts. Are any others facing this dilemma? Exactly... Quote
Flash Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I can't see them making a UCS of this set, and certainly not with that many pieces. For me, it's worth it for the $$ to repay them for the incredible work put in. Hell, I spent more money on lunch today!. I'll be sending my payment along soon, hopefully I'll get a change to build it! Quote
jmagaletta Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I decided to buy the instuctions and start this project. I give myself 4-5 months to finish, will probably spend $100-$150 a month on pieces until I have them all. My reasoning in pulling the trigger. I don't think this will get an official UCS from TLG in the near futre, if at all. If they do one it will most likely not look as good as this one and not as detailed. No need to wait years on something that "might happen" when I can start now. The bricklinking will be a nightmare for me, I feel I just need to put a good amount of preparation into the planning and it should be ok. I have already made a spreadsheet in Excel to help me with this and inventoried the parts I already have. I would like to keep my orders to the minimum amounts of stores. I will most likely start with the high quantity items and work down to the lower quantity. Any advice from someone who has done this will be greatly appreciated. Quote
Anio Posted May 24, 2013 Author Posted May 24, 2013 Son of a... The guy is selling the instruction on ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Custom-Star-Wars-Lego-Venator-Supersize-INSTRUCTIONS-ONLY-/321118139528?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item4ac421f488 Quote
StoutFiles Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 Son of a... The guy is selling the instruction on ebay. Wow, people suck. Any way you can report him for theft? Quote
Anio Posted May 24, 2013 Author Posted May 24, 2013 I reported the item, for copyright etc. But I doubt ebay will remove the item. :-( I also contacted the seller thief. You are welcome to spam him for him to remove the auction. :D Quote
Flash Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) I reported it too, hope it helps And money sent to setechnic for an awesome work of art! Edited May 25, 2013 by Flash Quote
jmagaletta Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 Reported also. What an a** any one of the people who bought the instructions, inuding me, could resale them. But it is a matter of respect and decency. Disgusting. Quote
