    Brothers Brick have their review of the new UCS Star Destroyer up.
    https://www.brothers-brick.com/2019/09/23/lego-star-wars-75252-ultimate-collector-series-imperial-star-destroyer-review/

    TL:DR: An impressive set, but the all studs-out construction and lack of minifigures are a disappointment when you drop $700 bucks.

    Love to cede the concept of a right to privacy to building blocks.

    That's basically the context, He's a hamster in a ball, and you roll around causing hilarious death and mayham

    UCS Milano is comple-

    W1GKWa1l.jpg

    -oh!

    So heads up anyone considering the custom UCS Milano; it's Inventory is slightly inaccurate, I'm definitely missing a bunch of silver 1x1 studs, wondering what else I'm missing!

    And the instructions have a couple significant errors. The lightsabers in the rear holding flags are missing one technic pin to hold em in, and the 1x4 technic brick in side of the cockpit is misplaced, it needs to be swapped with the 1x1 brick behind it, otherwise the wings cannot connect.

    Oh brilliant

    Google "Capt Kim Campbell" for the true story that this was based on.

    So, Force Friday coming up this weekend.
    Double VIP points on Star Wars kits, plus a free micro build of The Battle of Endor if you spend $75 or more.
    They also say stuff will be on sale, but I've yet to see details on what or how much of a sale.

    I'm hoping to grab the Anniversary Slave 1, but none of the latest wave really grab me.

    I may pick up the new Falcon or the smaller Starfigthers but we'll see.

    Thanks! Was a lot of fun putting together the A-10 (my fave USAF jet aside from the F-22; I am currently in the Air Force but my job has nothing to do with aircraft; I saw the A-10s up close while I was deployed).

    The hangar was a huge pain in the ass by comparison and takes up a lot of room. I stuck some stock Lego planes and helicopters in there for convenient storage, at least, while the A-10 goes on its own display stand.

    100 pages of Lego goodness have been and gone. Someone make a new thread with a suitably fabulous OP.
