Pilotasso Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Hey gents. After years of looking at toy stores I finally gave in to the child in me and returned to this old hobby of mine, check the photo below. :) I got a small bonus at work and I took the plunge today. This box alone has more pieces than my old sets (and my brothers) combined. LEGO's used to be out of reach for the common of mortals back then. Suprisingly the prices are no different today even with all these years of accumulated inflation. this one has over 3100 pieces. Later on I might purchase seperate parts to rebuild the discontinued Millenium falcon set #10179 with over 5000 pieces. That one was AWSOME and I must have it somehow. I will post more pictures as I build it, but its going to take several days.

Pilotasso Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 BTW I found out why LEGO chose parts of differemt colors to make the internals. it would be IMPOSSIBLE to folow the instructions otherwise. You would never tell where each part fits where. the contrast in the midle of this massive set really helps and some reviwers mentioned they didnt know why there would be color parts on a grey model... :D [sigpic]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic4448_29.gif[/sigpic] My PC specs below:Case: Corsair 400C PSU: SEASONIC SS-760XP2 760W Platinum CPU: AMD RYZEN 3900X (12C/24T) RAM: 32 GB 4266Mhz (two 2x8 kits) of trident Z RGB @3600Mhz CL 14 CR=1T MOBO: ASUS CROSSHAIR HERO VI AM4 GFX: GTX 1080Ti MSI Gaming X Cooler: NXZT Kraken X62 280mm AIO Storage: Samsung 960 EVO 1TB M.2+6GB WD 6Gb red HOTAS: Thrustmaster Warthog + CH pro pedals Monitor: Gigabyte AORUS AD27QD Freesync HDR400 1440P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilotasso Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) First section COMPLETE! not bad for 2 hours of work I though it would take longer. the struts on the underside are present but as you know they will be left somewhat undone when finished, LEGO didnt think there should be too much detail where it doesnt need to to save price, but it would be nice to have an extra tall stand for this effect. maybe in a re-edition who knows. need take a rest, tomorrow theres more. :) ooow my baaaaaaaaaack!!! :cry: Edited January 27, 2013 by Pilotasso [sigpic]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic4448_29.gif[/sigpic] My PC specs below:Case: Corsair 400C PSU: SEASONIC SS-760XP2 760W Platinum CPU: AMD RYZEN 3900X (12C/24T) RAM: 32 GB 4266Mhz (two 2x8 kits) of trident Z RGB @3600Mhz CL 14 CR=1T MOBO: ASUS CROSSHAIR HERO VI AM4 GFX: GTX 1080Ti MSI Gaming X Cooler: NXZT Kraken X62 280mm AIO Storage: Samsung 960 EVO 1TB M.2+6GB WD 6Gb red HOTAS: Thrustmaster Warthog + CH pro pedals Monitor: Gigabyte AORUS AD27QD Freesync HDR400 1440P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
