      yes, but I would recommend adding some extra pieces to make it stronger if you have any

    • @Badassobot9000

      Yeah i would agree, i was only able to put thr figs in because the floor and doors were easily detachable

    @NorthernLaw_ 6 років тому +84

    some people hate it but in the movie it is my favorite ship in the entire star wars universe and i think they did a good job but when it comes to lego everything seems disproportionate to everything like the engines the body (troop transport) etc but this makes it look a lot better but of course i would only put it on a shelf and leave it there anyways so it should look good while doing it haha

    I was confused at first because at different stages you have the doors the other way around, and then in the end again. Still made the modification myself, really nice! Also you could put the 1x2 cheese slopes on the 2 studs sticking out next to the doors.

    Got any ideas for the First Order Transport (75103)? I've seen people make it a lot longer to make it look better, but I haven't seen any really good mod designs that don't add a ton of pieces.

    for my u wing i just made the rest of the ship proportionate to the undercarriage. This would have been way easier if i had seen this before i spent 2 hours making the body and wings 16 studs longer and adding 2 more of those white ring pieces to the engines. 😂 nice modification. 👍

    I have a modified model.3 AT-TE (clone wars version) with modified rear troop compartment, and all fore and aft legs redesigned with knees. But still stable enough to stand in a pose, by itself. I'd like to modify the primary legs to a similar effect soon. makes it great for pictures or mocks. It actually looks pretty nice being able to pose it at an angle like they usually are when on the move.

    Just done the modification - managed to add the swinging guns in again and made some tiny adjustments to the swinging doors. I also managed to pick up the U-Wing Microfighter 75160 just to get the correct pilot with print and helmet to match the U-Wing (the pilot that 75155 wasn't accurate, more like a blue squadron X-Wing pilot and helmet).
    I feel like no matter how much I re-checked and re-made them... remaking the doors at 4:05 versus placing the doors at 6:56 seemed like the stickered plates orientation was wrong, had to re-do them with the plates the right way around.
    Was pleasantly surprised that I could still have normal height minifigs seated in the now condensed area, very cleverly designed!
    Other than that little confusion it was a great adjustment to my U-Wing, thank you for putting this guide together :)

  • @lordsubziro2824
    @lordsubziro2824 4 роки тому

    Kudos to you for a video well done!!! The reason for the larger cargo bay was so the Minifigures included could stand and use the pull out mini shooters. Lego does have to modify the build for minifigs usage than the film models sometimes. But now, the minifigs can sit down while in flight. Great job. And May the 4th be with you... always!!!

  • @TheOtherGuys2
    @TheOtherGuys2 7 років тому +3

    This is an idea I've been looking for someone to make videos or tutorials about for a while, doing an alternate build to make the set look more accurate or functional! Thank you for making this be a thing!
    I would like to suggest, if you can, a modification of set 75153 AT-ST walker, to make it so that the legs can actually 'walk'. As it is, they only have one joint on each leg, and it's kind of silly.
    I'd also like to suggest the idea of maybe including extra modifications you can do by adding extra bricks. Maybe have it as a bonus at the end, or start off with "for this mod, you'll need these specific parts to add to the set, or something that does the same job". Of course I understand wanting to only use the bricks included in the set, that makes perfect sense.

    • @AlternateBricks

I've modified it a bit so it's sturdier for playing (no extra part either) but I can only fit 3 minifigs on the cargo bay (Jyn is to tall with the helmet) and a weapon rack... just for fun.

I have a recommendation, can you make the Jedi Star fighters and Wings (A-Wing, Y-Wing, X-wing ) do that the astromech droid is facing it's body forwards instead of sideways? something that bugs me, and it looks like something you would be good at doing.

    Hey, man, just subscribed. I love these types of videos. Step-by-step tutorials that improve on LEGO's design are priceless, and I've been looking for tutorials on how to make transports, specifically, more screen accurate.
    I would love to see you make a video on how to improve minifigs capacity on these kinds of sets, since they really suck as-is. I have the First Order Transport and it's capacity is weak. A modification video for that set would be awesome.
    Keep doing what you're doing!

    I never actually do anything more than just watch UA-cam videos (so this is my first interaction) but just wanted (needed) to say, good job on the video and a very good idea. If it's this detailed now I can only see the production, script, format ect will only improve over time. Haven't seen anything like this before via the lego channels so it's nice to see something original and people can join in as well. Hope you make some money from this for your time and effort into making these videos! Keep it up m8!

      Thankyou, that means a lot to me :) Hopefully I'll be able to do this full-time soon so I can make more videos. I have heaps of videos planned!

    Cool video I dunno if it’s worth the work to dismantle and rebuild it for but very cool! definitely looks a bit better than the official LEGO one
