LEGO Building, Millennium Falcon, Day 2

Day 2 brings us the main shape of the Falcon, the little details on the inside are wonderful, the famous chessboard corner is even there. 

There is the main panel for the controls of the core and hyperdrive systems

The iconic shape of the side of the Falcon

Here is the famous chessboard corner I was talking about

It is amazing how they come up with the ways of actually achieving the shape

Everything is there, the radar dish, the turret on the top and on the bottom

Here is the Falcon with the minifigures it comes with 

Top view so you can see all the little details they have put into the Falcon

 

All in all, it was a great build and great fun to do. Now just to wait for my birthday and... The Death Star !! I cannot wait !

LEGO Building, Millennium Falcon, Day 1

Today we started building the Millenium Falcon and boy is it an awesome build, at first the parts actually do not seem to be stable at all until the first decking goes on. 

Once that is done, the little details on the inside are being added, things like the chess table where Chewbacca is about to rip C-3PO's arm off and the hyperdrive and main control centre for the Falcon

 

To be continued tomorrow when we build some more but in the meantime, here are the manuals :)

LEGO Building, Jabba Is Out Of The Closet, Part 4

What a great set this is, the plethora of minifigures and ingenious ideas on how to make this set look the part are amazing. 

From the back when the build is finished, it looks like how you see it in the movie from a distance.

The set comes with Jabba, Salacious Crumb, Bib Fortuna a Gamorrean Guard, Oola, Han Solo, Princess Leia in Boushh outfit, Chewbacca and B'omarr Monk.

As a set this gives great value for money, it is not a difficult build but it is a fun build with the trapdoor, the way the main door gets locked into position and the overall look of the whole thing, it really captures the feel of the movies' idea of the throne room.

Also here is the manual if you would need it at some stage, I thought it was a good idea to upload for future references.
