I remember the original toy of this from the 80s (I see it actually launched late 70s). The odd layout with exposed passengers was because it was designed to let you slide six Star Wars figures into the side pockets - or rather it was designed to make you (nag your parents to) buy more stormtroopers!
I was blown away by the open space in the vehicles. LEGO Star Wars makes vehicles that fit the visual over anything which is fine, but I would love to make a spaceship (based on a SW set) which is roomy in the inside. This build looks so great. I came here because I have the Armored Marauder 75311 set in the mail for this very purpose. I won't be able to mod it to this degree but it should serve me well for a single person's spaceship with various sections in it. Maybe a rear cargo room and center computer room or resting room. The with of this mod in this video is amazing.
Excellent rendition of the Imperial troop transports. This MOC is not only realistically designed and highly functional but also has good playability with that sturdy build. I love the smart use of those single hollow stud pieces (3:10) for the floor plates, which gives a balance between a smoother clean look while providing positions for mini-figurines to adhere to. The only suggestion I have is to replace the twin guns on each of the "wings" of the Trexler Marauder with a spring-loaded missile instead; then it will be UCS perfection.
I can’t wait for them to release an MTT model too. I imagine there are many good models, but not good enough, and they’re just waiting for the perfect one!
Yeah but for sure the second one was the best one so far, i just imagine one really accurate and scaled perfectly, god damn can't wait for these guys to find it
It would be nice to see some of the more interesting vehicles from the original Star Wars that no one ever does. Like Jabba’s Sail Barge with Desert Skiffs. The Sandcrawler or Skyhopper were pleasant surprises, more stuff like that. At least some prequel vehicles then, like the Bango Submarine or the Naboo Royal Starship.
These look fantastic! As far as suggestions or anything like that, I would LOVE to see a UCS scale Nebulon B and maybe even a play scale Hammerhead Corvette.
I just finished your guys custom ucs shuttle and that build is amazing! 😯😃Everyone's face when I show them how the wings fold out on their own. I think im going to build these two next. They look great.👍
I would love to see you guys make some stuff from MCU. The Guardians’ Milano, Valkyrie’s gunship, or the Grandmaster’s party ship. But also, I love when you guys crank out Star Wars stuff; make a TIE/br, TIE/v1, or the quad jumper from TFA
These builds are awesome, ive always wanted to build a good ground transport for my rebels moc if i ever decide to build one and now i found the perfect build^^
These are fantastic models!! Really like the design and effort put into it. That being said i kinda do like the og star wars rebels variant. Thats just my opinion. Other than that great model.
A very cool model but could we get more doom stuff in the future, there are many models of mechs, demons, and locations that would look amazing from you guys!
I find it always strange how the Star Wars designers keep designing war-vehicles where the personnels are exposed to enemy fire outside from the vehicles, instead of keeping them inside and protected (at least until they are deployed, of course.)
its not really strange, we only have fully enclosed vehicles due to NBC protection, something that individual trooper armour already has in star wars, and is something our own armies now consider less of a threat and thus more and more open-topped vehicles are in use (mostly in artillery)
Not really that is kind of reflective of real troop transport. What makes it odd is how they are used in the movies being basically glorified tanks filled with people.
@@BrickVault of course. It's spiffy though. I just wish that this kind of technology still existed by the time of the Sequel Trilogy along with other fan-favorites from the Original Trilogy.
Hey guys, love your channel! Are you guys ever going to go in the front of the camera again? In your old studio, you used to show what you guys were building as well as your displays, etc. Then you guys moved after building Yavin IV and we haven’t gotten an update since? Just wondering. Thanks for your content. Love your videos.
Thanks :) I think we will yeah, at the moment our space is pretty small again, with lots of storage. We are looking to do some expanding again, but it'll still be several months until we have an area cool enough to show on the regular.
The bought the instructions for the play scale ghost but when I upload the part list to bricklink for the actual ghost there is an error for “no 40344” and “no 40345” can u please tell me how to fix??
I really wish I can afford these mocs. There are some I’m really hoping to put together one day (once I’m done with school, 2 more years) especially the ghost. I really wanna accept that I’m a psychopath and go with your large scale ghost moc lol
Working my way through building all the MOCs on the webstore. My display room is very light blueish grey. Do you know any builders with fig scale pod racers? Would be nice to get some colour into the room.
Those models are amazing! But there is a small inaccuracy, the transport in the show has an armored glass windshield. We can barely see it, but there is definitly one. As for the version that smashes the landspeeder, i can only guess the windshield was removed for replacement or something.
I don't think that's an inaccuracy with the MOC, I think it's just easier to imply the existence of the windshield with curves and slopes as it would be hard to incorporate transparent parts.
Yo wassup fam love yo builds guys!!!!! I have a real rad suggestion for you lads. How about you make, THE TIE REAPER. Yo that would be sick fam, take my suggestion into consideration dudes. That Tie Reaper would be narly.

Yeah it's cool that the design team today is still pulling from older "source material".
Yes
Bruh ur account age is as old as me dam
@@BrickVault Source material? There is no such thing :)
"Action figures not included!"
THEY ACTUALLY DID IT, I CANT BELIEVE IT, I wanted this for a long time, these people are great.
All credit goes to Rob van Leeuwen :)
@@BrickVault , so they are official LEGO sets now?
@@BrickVault the designer of this should be the Lego design team leader
@@liamroberts3025 these are way cooler than the set coming out (marauder trexlar) for $40 American and $50 Canadian

Those two LEGO custom builds are wicked, congrats to the dude who made these awesome LEGO Imperial transports.
Still waiting for an MTT guys, these build surprise me everytime can't wait for that one, great video
I can’t wait for them to release an MTT model too. I imagine there are many good models, but not good enough, and they’re just waiting for the perfect one!
@@jklmvideos7105 yeah for sure and that makes me so pumped to see the perfect minifig scale model that it's gonna be so great
Me too, I was just browsing for one yesterday and the cheapest (used and some parts missing :/ ) from 2014 is for 400 USD with shipment (wtf)...
Yeah but for sure the second one was the best one so far, i just imagine one really accurate and scaled perfectly, god damn can't wait for these guys to find it
@@O_Kaby10 if they released a minifig scale model on their website, it would probably be around $500 ☹️
Lots of really cool customs lately. Music is great!
These look awesome! Some of my favorite imperial ground vehicles.
Speaking of ground vehicles, I’d love to see an AT-DP in the future! 👍
I second this
I third this, hehe
I fourth this and I want a at-st or heck I want the havw a-6 rebuplic juggernaut turbo tank
I 5th this hehe
@@a_random_custodes they already have an AT-ST :)
Bro Finally they made this!! I can't believe no one else thought of this!! Good job for Rob van Leeuwen!
Great Mod!!!
And thanks for telling us where to find instructions and how to build.
I clicked so fast that Alderaan hadn’t blown up yet.....
@JKLM Videos, too soon, man, too soon.
Yo Man I don't really appreciate that comment...
My whole family died there (joke btw)
@@lawrence2610 😂
Excellent build by Rob Van. I’m really looking forward to putting all Star Wars related MOCs by talented builders into action one day!

I agree completely.
JACK IS BACK 🎉
The ITT was so much fun to build and use in MOCs.
I really love those down to earth imperial vehicles of the new star wars
I can't wait for this kind of set!
Bought it, first time ordering from you guys, very easy to do, and I’ll continue to do it in the future
God, only if Lego actually made these, but until then, the talents of builders I don't know will also do.
These look fantastic! As far as suggestions or anything like that, I would LOVE to see a UCS scale Nebulon B and maybe even a play scale Hammerhead Corvette.

The Rebels version already had a top turret too though
Yeah, Ezra shoved a wrench into it in that one episode
"Wait, you did all this, for fruit?"
@@prof.maniak5925 XD, A little bit..... maybe..
Why can't lego build as good as this moc.
wtf this is sick why have i not seen this sooner!!!! definitely worth the 15 for instructions
thats look so good
I’m just happy to see them using the right stormtroopers
Love the interior!!
I would love to see you guys make some stuff from MCU. The Guardians’ Milano, Valkyrie’s gunship, or the Grandmaster’s party ship.
But also, I love when you guys crank out Star Wars stuff; make a TIE/br, TIE/v1, or the quad jumper from TFA
Hey just a heads up they didn’t automatically just show up out of nowhere in the Mandalorian they were in the rebels series if you remember
he mentions this at 2:05
True I typed that before he said that I feel bad cause I jumped to conclusions lol but I still love the model
just bought instructions and looking forward to building it :)
I don’t know what it is about this ship, but I have always been Intrigued with it. Will definitely be buying this
These builds are awesome, ive always wanted to build a good ground transport for my rebels moc if i ever decide to build one and now i found the perfect build^^
That is the most amazing imperial tank I ever have seen. On a side note, please try to make a mini fig scale stinger mantis! I love the shipsooo much
Awesome grey brick
that is a really nice build
These are fantastic models!! Really like the design and effort put into it. That being said i kinda do like the og star wars rebels variant. Thats just my opinion. Other than that great model.
You should also create The Mandalorian juggernaut vehicle! 🙌🏻
the mandalorian is gold
4:30 I can't believe..
A very cool model but could we get more doom stuff in the future, there are many models of mechs, demons, and locations that would look amazing from you guys!
Now all we need are the transports and more walkers of the First Order
I have many First Order mocs! :D
That is so cool!
0.03 these Storm Troopers are straight up vibbin ;D
Can't wait for Bad Batch so we can get a Brickvault Bad Batch shuttle MOC
Absolutely beautiful 😍

@@matthiuskoenig3378 nah, we also have full enclosures for armor protection. I think most early enclosed APCs didn't even have proper NBC protection.
Cant wait for this...
I really wanna see a moc of the troop transport from The Mandalorian Season 2 (the ship that looks similar to the FO transport)
That’s what I was thinking!
Maybe I'll do this imperial shuttle :)
This comment aged well
@@Goose_that_goes_honk definitely
The ITT made its first real appearance in Dark Empire in Legends.
The 1979 toy may have been the first first, but I was trying to keep it cannon for the video
@@BrickVault of course. It's spiffy though. I just wish that this kind of technology still existed by the time of the Sequel Trilogy along with other fan-favorites from the Original Trilogy.

I sure as heck am gonna buy me some Mando figs to recreate one of my favorite season 2 moments XD
I saw this on Flickr few months ago, great job Rob! :)
These are sweet
I wish lego added this set :(
They ARE going to release it during this year´s (2021) summer wave.
Bit big but cool design
You guys have to make a minifigure scale imperial juggernaut from the mandalorian. Its wound work great with these models?
Those are so cool I would buy them no matter what the cost because tbh I don’t have enough pieces or patience
Wow Rob !!
I really like the ITT's design, with it's ruggedness and functionality. You guys did a good job with it.
I recommend making something from the Star Wars Resistance cartoon, that show is full of awesome designs
this is mad i was looking about for this today
we need an actual set for these
Dude I was thinking of this exact vehicle and then the upload arrives
Epic !
I hope Lego does this design for the official set. 🙏😃
Cool... still waiting for the falcon tho
The bought the instructions for the play scale ghost but when I upload the part list to bricklink for the actual ghost there is an error for “no 40344” and “no 40345” can u please tell me how to fix??
You should make this a set
The Mandalorian Fang Fighter (mini figure scale) is a build I hope to see in the future.
Thanks B.V. Both look awesome, good choice using stormtroopers.🤠
The models look beautiful, although personally I prefer the rebels style, you should make an MTT
Now i want this
So hard to pick which one to get and build, both are great models and have a ton of interior space.
So cool
This is great
I really wish I can afford these mocs. There are some I’m really hoping to put together one day (once I’m done with school, 2 more years) especially the ghost. I really wanna accept that I’m a psychopath and go with your large scale ghost moc lol
Great build, minifig scale clone turbo tank pls
I do wish you mentioned a rough estimate of the cost it would take to buy the parts and build one
Ah yes, a floating brick where your payload of troopers can get sniped in the heads by that toxic, dropshotting tryhard in the lobby
Yh it makes more sense the way it’s used in rebels as a prison transport
Working my way through building all the MOCs on the webstore. My display room is very light blueish grey. Do you know any builders with fig scale pod racers? Would be nice to get some colour into the room.
para comprarlo como se ace
Which one would you recommend?
Amazing
Sick!!! How much would it cost to buy all pieces?
seached it up and cant find it. it would looks soo cool for my lego imperial army collection
Those models are amazing! But there is a small inaccuracy, the transport in the show has an armored glass windshield. We can barely see it, but there is definitly one. As for the version that smashes the landspeeder, i can only guess the windshield was removed for replacement or something.

@@maxmocs5008 true, i'm just pointing the innacurracy, not saying it is bad.
That minifig scale Tantive IV next?
Yoooooo this is amazing
omg It is really good
Tie reaper pls 🙏
hey brickvault that imperial trooper ship is from mandalorian
Wow this is awesome wish I could build it but it’s quite expensive for the instructions plus the bricks from wherever :/
thank u
Where can i get the parts? Is there a platform out there?
When can we see the new studio?
Yo wassup fam love yo builds guys!!!!! I have a real rad suggestion for you lads. How about you make, THE TIE REAPER. Yo that would be sick fam, take my suggestion into consideration dudes. That Tie Reaper would be narly.
Make a Rebels version!
