squatswithducks 4 Report post Posted April 29 @Onyx2Â what are the instructions like that come with these? I've been really tempted with the Star Wars/Harry Potter/Simpsons sets, but don't want thousands of pieces scattered everywhere without a detailed step by step instruction!

I've been really tempted with the Star Wars/Harry Potter/Simpsons sets, but don't want thousands of pieces scattered everywhere without a detailed step by step instruction! They are identical to normal sets, usually with more steps on each page though, to cut down on the manual size. I'll take a pic if you want when i get home? The only issue I ever had was in the earlier sets the pieces weren't sorted in bags in stages (bag 1, bag 2, etc) so with that Super Star Destroyer I had a box of literally thousands of unsorted grey pieces. It was a nightmare to get them in any order. Don't think that's an issue with the newer sets though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squatswithducks 4 Report post Posted April 29 @chokeout sweet, cheers for confirming that. I've been so tempted to treat myself. I've really enjoyed doing the Lego architecture ones, so this'll be a nice change Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To complement chokey's, they are the original Lego instructions completely reprinted. Mine was in bags but the numbering is a bit off. This just means the project lasts longer 🙂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Onyx2 1,836 Report post Posted May 9 This is a remake of the Vader / Obi-wan duel from New Hope using Deep Fake. A common criticism of that fight is how shambling it looks through modern eyes. It's a bit too fan-wanky and the choice of shots is not in keeping with how Lucas does it, but I applaud the effort and the use of voice echoes is perfect.   Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
