    I think this set should have had 2 dark troopers and maybe 1 stormtrooper. I would argue anymore than 2 dark troopers would be unexpected in a bigger set of this scale. See previous cruiser, destroyer type sets that often include 2 of certain troopers. Then perhaps Lego could make a battle pack with dark troopers next year. But yeah I agree that for the price it needed more figures.

    I’m not worried about having yet another version of the same print for mando because it’s appropriate to the scene and there’s not really much they can do to change the character, it’s the same issue with many other characters like Rey who have very few costume changes throughout their appearances that it’s worthless for them to change it. I totally understand wanting to just buy the figures though as the set is expensive anyway.

    I'm... Rather torn on this one, even after watching your review. I don't particularly mind the small inaccuracies. Size seems okay. The interior that is there looks good. But really, even just some small weapons compartments or something like that to make a bit more use of the space behind the bridge, would help a ton. The minifigs it comes with I think are great overall, especially Fennec. I guess one thing that bugs me a little is the unprinted legs on Gideon. More should've been included though. I think Dr. Pershing would've been a great inclusion, or like you said a few more Dark Troopers. Some people wanted Luke but I don't think he was necessary. So not bad, not great. But that price... Man, that price... I loved The Mandalorian, and wanted to like this set, but I might actually craigste-... Er, skip it unless I find it for less than MSRP. Still not sure though.

    I'm fine with waiting for this to go on sale or discount it's not worth the full price, the build is solid minifigure selection is good but a few inaccuracies that could have been easily change especially for the price your paying is very high another dark trooper and possibly Luke would have made it more understandable. And you could buy the Luke X-wing set to recreate the scene with grogu if you wanted and they included that version of Luke in this set. My problem is sets like this only a few years ago would have cost around £120 I would like a cruiser for my collection but not for this price.

  • @Icypenguigo
    @Icypenguigo3 жыл бұрын

    I agree about the lack of additional Dark Troopers. I personally think they should have dropped Cara Dune and added one more Dark Trooper, at least. And Mando should really have face printing now. His identity is no longer a mystery. And one of the most pivotal scenes of that last episode was him finally showing Grogu his face. And we can't recreate that. So come on with that already, Lego. I really love the overall look of the ship, and like you said, it's sturdy as hell. I have yet to knock any pieces off mine, even after a few days of handling it. But I think it should have had a bit more interior space. I know space is at a premium on this thing so I don't know how they could have handled this, but it really should have had baby Grogu's prison cell where he was knocking around Stormtroopers, and the little bit of hallway where Mando had his duel with the single Dark Trooper. They're both pretty small spaces so they probably could have fit them in somewhere. I'm very 'meh' on the inclusion of the micro TIE Fighters. The little TIE launcher at the front does nothing for me. I think they could have dropped them completely, BUT, if they really had to insist on keeping them, maybe also include a micro-scale Slave 1 and Lambda-class shuttle as well? Could be done for minimal parts and cost I'm sure, and then at least you could make a nice little diorama of their initial invasion of Gideon's ship. I dunno, just some random thoughts to improve this set. I still like it overall, it's a nice addition to my Imperial navy.

Not excusable, perhaps not even fully understandable (but hey, it's LEGO we're talking about), but more understandable than doing the exact same thing nearly a decade later. The fact that they've been doing so for years is exactly why they should've finally given us an updated design. Btw, a black katana wouldn't look as out of place as you think. The early vibroblades were basically katana, and even Clone Wars-era and later vibroblades have a similar design, just look at the Kage Warriors. They're essentially wielding lightning-infused shōtō. And I didn't say they should've simply used a black katana as their updated Darksaber, I said that in lieu of the new mold we should've gotten by now I'd prefer a katana to represent the saber over the baton they've been using for all these years.

Also feel like the cruiser looking like a arquiten-class cruiser is not a problem. The set is named ‘imperial light cruiser’ instead of moff gideon’s light cruiser, so i feel like they made a arquiten so it could be used in multiple scenarios.

    Mando not having a face, having the set be as expensive as it is and only having one Dark trooper, not including Bo in this set, or maybe the other Mandalorian at least, I forget her name and then trying to include that small interior only really dampers this set. it could have and should have been so much better. the structure looks good but man did they just find a way to drop the ball, it almost feels like they intentionally shot themselves in the foot. The Darksaber is laughable as well. It should at LEAST be transparent, dual molding a normal kitana would have fit the idea too effortlessly as well. I don't see the issue with doing that

    I think they should have included the other mandalorian instead of Bo because she appears in another set this wave. I guess Lego just didn’t want to make another new design for the mandalorian helmet. Though they certainly should have included 2 dark troopers. There are indeed a couple of issues with this set which bear in mind had been in development before the final episode of season 2 had aired so I can forgive them for the things like the engines or the cannons. However I’m almost certain that this set will still sell well because of a few exclusive characters.

    Nice to hear what you think about this set. You confirmed a lot of my initial feelings from just seeing the official photos of the set. It should come with at least two more dark troopers and another interior area or two - maybe a cell for Grogu and the dark trooper room. I would love to see both of those and a little hallway but that's probably asking for too much. I feel like there are tons of Lego sets that don't come with enough low level bad guys. Oh well.

    I personally feel that this model is too tall, especially seeing it in a realistic setting. With large evil ships like this in star wars I feel that their flatness is an essential quality that is missing here. In addition, the price is simply too high. $160 is absurd when ships of this size were $120 only a few years ago. The figure selection is also pitiful. There should have been more dark troopers as well as the officer that was always reporting to Moff Gideon.

    Funny you mention the Lambda shuttle landing in the TIE launch tube because Lambda shuttles are much larger than TIEs, but I believe there is a scene in Rebels where a Sentinel class landing craft docks between the mandibles of the Rebels version of the Arquitens Command Cruiser, the wings stay folded down and extend quite a bit passed the edges and really only the fuselage of the ship even fits between the mandibles, much less a TIE launch tube actually in the ship.

    The blue technic pins in the front cutout for the tie launcher were likely intentional. In the show, there are blue lights along the inside there, and some speculate that it's basically a rail-gun type launcher. Ideally, they would have added more material in the cutout with blue pieces attached. However, to save cost, this is at least an attempt to account for those.

By comparison the last two star destroyers had an awesome interiors and both had 2 stormtroopers in their minifigure lineup. I can’t understand why only one was included and its definitely put me off on buying it at full price. Even a new printed face and torso for a Mandalorian Luke Skywalker would’ve sold me.

    I really like the set. However I think it's one I think I am going to have to mod a bit. I'm going to take off the launchers from the turrets and make the turrets slimmer and smaller, but I am going to use 2 of the launchers instead of the plunger to launch tie fighters from the front. I got a technic piece in mind that can link the two launchers together as a trigger. That's going to be funny to see if it works. I think you might see some exploding TIE Fighters...that's canon :D. As for the Dark Troopers. I think a battle pack is on the cards. The best outcome for this giving the usual format Lego do now in battle packs is you'll get 2 dark troopers. But you could get a Scout trooper on a scout bike and one of those Stormtrooper flame throwers. That would be awesome. Another alternative could be 2 dark troopers, a mortar stormtrooper and a trooper with an E-Web.
