About this deal

You can just see some pro MOCer looking at those Star Destroyer measurements, thinking - "challenge accepted" ;-)

The sets from early in the franchise also should not have been included. A lot of pieces we enjoy today seem to be the result of LEGO trying to make their Star Wars line better looking. So actually we should be grateful to those early designs for contributing to improvement overall.

I once heard that the UCS Millenium Falcon, the basis for the list, is actually slightly too big by a very small margin." I think it would have been more interesting to highlight a subset of ships, like the ones that were the closest to actual mini figure scale. Then perhaps follow-up articles about ones that are further away from “true” minifig scale. I feel I have to give the first few entries a pass, since they came from the earliest days of Star Wars. With a much more limited array of specialised pieces that later sets take advantage of, of course they look sub-par. It's be like criticising something I built out of duplo because it doesn't look as good as the stuff I can build now. the percentage of bad Star Wars sets compared to the total number sets in this theme is really very low

Notes: An alternative length of 9.60 metres is sometimes provided, but I find the shorter length of 6.90 metres more convincing. Viewing the onscreen vehicle and comparing the RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor with its successor, which measures 7.68 metres long and seems larger than the Rebel craft, provides compelling evidence.EU: 4184340 Availability Retail Notes Set contains additional parts to build a Y-wing Fighter when also using additional parts from sets 4488, 4489 and 4490. There are studies proving that a parent is much more likely to buy something if they can relate to it. While children may be the target audience, Lego is really selling sets to adults. So when Star Wars is chosen over say, Castle, its because of the parents, not the children. After 2014’s Star Wars Rebels sets, I don’t think there’s a “worst LEGO Star Wars set”. Few of them are boring or need functions as seen in the movies/series, but I like all of them. I don’t understand why so many people hate 75098 or 75177. They’re pretty cool and some of my favourites.

Maybe if the FO AT-ST had at least improved on the design of the legs by making them posable it wouldn't be as bad. Unfortunately it doesn't do that though so it easily gets my vote. The Self Propelled Heavy Artillery (SPHA) walker was a modular heavy artillery unit used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. It was used at the end of Episode 2 on Geonosis.After 2007, things are a little more difficult for me. I never had a real connection to the Clone Wars show (though I greatly enjoyed the initial shorts). Lego also begins adding in some other Star Wars properties that I have no connection to (such as Force Unleashed, Yoda Chronicles, Freemaker Adventures). In a few years, you get more and more exclusive sets and small polybag type sets, both of which can be difficult to obtain. There are a lot more sets I don't care about. Even some of the base movie sets are at times uninteresting. Just because I'm not interested, are they really that bad? Hard to say. Value new ~€10.75 Value used ~€7.57 Notes [JP] Available from Gacha Vending Machines inside a plastic ball for 400 Yen. Establishing precise minifigure-scale is always difficult, primarily because minifigures feature such unusual proportions. Nevertheless, many Star Wars models are intended to interact with minifigures, of course.
