Just out of the couriosity I counted how many studs on the edge my 2006 star destroyer have. Its 70. 70 vs 55 is a huuuuge difference. This one is realy small

That's a bigger gap, I counted 61 on the 2014 one, but it was rough math since I don't have one in my possession.

It looks extremely small for that price tag. It's a half step above the midi-scale one honestly and not worth it. Plus a Cal without a poncho? Come on now lol

I’m pretty sure it’s either smaller or bigger than the light cruiser we got a few years ago by a cm or two either way it should be bigger for that price

Smaller is more accessible. Bigger should be kept for UCS. Any smaller should either be starship collection or microfighter

idk how everyone is surprised, LEGO has been doing this and will continue to do it. Look at how small the Slave I's and Sandcrawlers have gotten compared to older models.

I got the 2006 one and it’s great. Not the same amount of detail or as well build as new sets, but still a fun set. Sucks you can’t put some figures in the bridge like older sets.

Proportions matter

People saying more pieces -> They unnecessarily use alot of smaller pieces so the piece count goes up, that way the price looks justified. But the fact is that people pay more for less plastic. LEGO have become greedy scammers.

I think a lot of people share the same sentiment, we'd prefer a little less detail for a bigger ship instead of excessive small pieces

@BrixRus_Productions

I wish they would use a few less small detail pieces and just enlarge the sets. by like 10-15% instead.

I like the design because it's essentially the 2014 one. Totally mod worthy. The 2006 one is poorly constructed BUT has a decent size and a bridge for minifigures. That's such an obvious feature to include that is really sucks Lego skipped on this 2024 version. Cal minifigure not withstanding, you want a great example of inflation then compare this 2024 ISD to the 2014 one which are essentially the same ship with very similar figure count. $160 msrp vs. $120 msrp respectively. Having said that, could have been worse and I hate to admit that! Lego could have sold the new one for $180 or $200 based on their current record high pricing.

What does Gallius Rax even look like? Is there even any official art work or something of what Gallius Rax even looks like? I feel at this point you can do about anything with a minifig and say it's Gallius Rax. I'm not against the idea of Gallius Rax, but who's gonna recognize him unless if you tell us? Personally, I'd love Tarkin! But I feel a feeling with the rumored Death Star set, we'll get a Tarkin anyway... Hey maybe we could get Admiral Ozzel! If we remove Vader and Commander Praji as well; It'd be nice to have him and then throw in Piett as well. Good for playing out that scene in Empire Strikes Back where Ozzel dies and Piett has to take over. I suggested removing Commander Praji because it seems like this is intended to be A New Hope set. BUT. They got the Array on top of the bridge all wrong, that's the Array used by Star Destroyers after A New Hope.

@BrixRus_Productions

18 күн бұрын

I Think there is artwork of him, but I'm not 100% sure. I look at it the same as Admiral Sloane that they gave us in the Tie Interceptor so they could make an admiral character with a red cape like the book describes him. I'd definitely be down with Admiral Ozzel or really any other Officer to add to the collection instead of the 7th Vader on shelves the last year lol. Ozzel and Praji would make sense for sure and would be fun!

While I dont mind it being small, the price range for this size is really whats making me conflicted with getting it because it feels like Lego has made smaller sets more expensive.

@BrixRus_Productions

6 күн бұрын

I think an extra figure or two would have gone a long ways with the pricing too. Just to fill out the set a touch more

I thought I was the only one who noticed how small the ship is

Well, I have no imperial Star Destroyer yet, so I'm getting this one and see how it compares to my First Order one and the Light Cruiser. The size honestly doesn't bother me... much. One inch more or less doesn't make it better or worse to me. The price is standard Lego pricing, means never buy at full price and wait for discounts.

Honestly it could’ve just been benefited from a couple triangular plates at the front to better conceal the very front giving it some extra length.

Personally, I actually prefer smaller footprints because I am quickly running out of room to display my Lego. This set has more pieces than the 2014 model and the same amount of mini figures. Adjusting for inflation this set costs the same as it did in 2014. I really have no complaints here.
