I wasn't totally certain about the scale, and I appreciate you clarifying some of the details in the build make it explicitly packed enough that the minifig element is imperatively suffering a bit.Ī solid review, marred only by the omission of the stickers, and made up for by the writing.Īs for the set, wow. Thank you, and yes, to be frank, I was in this regard aware that you engage in reviewing sets outside of the SW line however, I haven't yet had a chance to read any of the reviews in that category, so to speak, and since SW remains, while not necessarily my favorite theme when focusing on new products, my primary interest in terms of nostalgia, I've intentionally focused on reviews within that line. For instance, this set could have been split apart in different sets and once connected, the effect would be the same.

I also open to the idea of smaller sets that can be modular in nature, like the series started in Harry Potter so that you can make a diorama with a respectable size, and that you don't have to buy them all at once. Sure, there's hoping that more sets like this will be released. I just have to chuckle because you mentioned "tatoonie" twice, and for some reason this image of Looney Toons pop in my head when I read that. I understand there are more iconic vehicles than buildings but it would be nice to have fully enclosed buildings like this in the future. I wish LEGO release Star wars set like this. To be honest, I will be happy even the set just have the cantina and without those speeders and tatoonie side builds =). I think the Cantina is absolutely gorgeous. I like SW but not enough to buy UCS sets but I was sold on this one since I saw the leak. I'm wonder if the open back one room house of Jawa is actually indeed open on Tatoonie too =). Nevertheless, the current scale is a good start as it is fairly easy to expand it a little bit proportionally. The way it is with the MBS Cantina, I guarantee you that you can't position the 50 odd minifigures there, if you wish to recreate the complete scene. I did my own Cantina MOC using the Star Wars blueprint as a guideline, and in order to fit all the minifigure (about 50 of them inside), is to make the floor area bigger. Size-wise the minifigure scale is quite odd. Star Wars is not the only theme I review here in EB (i.e. Ninjago and random small sets) so I can't really claim that I am not prone to repetitive theme fatigue. My score is a solid 4/5, likely deemed as a 5/5 if not for the bona fide tight-fitted omission of sufficient space to recreate Han and Greedo's iconic scene. Man, we applaud your dedication to the review process and your interest in showing us the techniques used for the bar and the V-35, undoubtedly the most intriguing elements and element-greedy sections of the build. The sheer size of the main build included in 75290 is absolutely astounding. If this is, in fact, your 33rd review as a member of the Academy here on, then it show s in your absolutely impeccable and indefatigable care for the theme, and, in this case, a truly special kit memorializing one of my favorite locations in the eleven SW films yet released. Without a doubt, right there with you, Makoy.
