Interesting solution for the things that Lego overlooked or decided to make some design choices, sacrificing one thing in favor of another, like the lack of space for "Finn" to come along. Still, this set seems like a step in the right direction, it looks great, no stickers and is reasonably priced.

like it how the 2 sides of the rear engine fits together when they close. Nice.

I put a droid head from star wars instead of the battery pack.

On mine, I moved the space logo tile to the front square and installed the drone in it's old space. I like your idea of two 1x2 tiles instead of a single 2x2 - much more solid connection for the drone. I also added a fourth swing booster to my ship. You just need to swap out the black 2x3 tile for a 2x4 to give you attachment points for an extra booster on the bottom of the ship.

Adding that fourth swing booster adds so much to the ship, great idea.

Great idea to add the drone up to the top and Greta use of spare pieces! Thanks for sharing!

I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed this set. I made a few modifications myself. I love the creativity with this series, you can make your own story and characters.

Love the prism idea, will probably mod mine to do the same.

Definite no man’s sky vibes

I like the cheese wedge additions to the engine. You can add an inverted slope on the bottom to give it 4 parts that open to make it into a full starburst engine.

I think a good addition would be a fourth arm to the hyperdrive engine assembly. Basically just replicating the top arm on the bottom so you get a nice fully symmetrical opening back there. Just feels like it’s missing a fourth arm. 🤔🤷

I agree, at first I didn’t notice anything was missing, but adding it was so easy and makes it look much more complete. I did notice that with four hyperdrive arms open, the side profile looks a little unbalanced. did you add anything to the bottom of the ship to balance it out?

@@SatisfyingBrickI added some landing gear that folds up. Done a lot of other mods to this. It’s kind of one of those sets I keep next to MOCs I’m building and when I’m struggling with my MOC designs I will fiddle around with modding this set some more just to do something different! Currently the ship is looking more akin to a Star Wars universe ship, I’ve simplified the colour scheme and completely redesigned the top section in particular getting rid of the battery box. Currently I’ve just got an inverted stud in its place but ideally I’d like to get an astromech head in there as I think it could be mounted on top using a Technic axle but I don’t currently have any. I don’t typically do minifigure type stuff (closest I’ve got is my UCS ATAT) and I don’t have an astromech head unfortunately.

Love your Mods on this! Keep on bricking!🧱😍
