First mod Video of any youtuber i can 100% respect. You didnt just give the minifigs different accessories or added a controllpad, you actually changed the build and playability by a lot. Great Job. Love the way the cockpit slides open
Wow, those modifications are great, i can't wait to get my hands on this particular set so i can mod it like you did. Thank you for ideas especially the cockpit one.
Great vid.. I actually put that set away after I got it because I was so annoyed at the lacking design (especially for how high priced it was) but you addressed all the biggest issues it has.. I'll have to get it back out now!
i think the price was based on it being a bigger scale, would rather have it a more accurate scale in comparison of the 2022 x wing and tie fighter. they should of made it smaller having more bricks available to add details but ppl at lego think bigger equals better I guess lol
I like it. It’s similar to my changes, but I did way more. Especially the engines. But I still have a gap on the cockpit that I will close with your solution, thanks 👍🏻
I ordered the parts, and have some remarks: - In the part list, you have a 2x2x2/3 slope replace the two 1x2x2/3 ones. I wish I had ordered the two separate ones too, for they would nicely fit at the now open spaces at the canopy. - Your fix for the booster engine ... I followed every one of your steps, but it doesn't stick: the tile you add at 2:39 makes the engine tilt downwards. And the plates you added at 2:43 are suddenly gone at 2:46? Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but it doesn't seem to work very well. - Your idea in the comments of tiling up down the sliding canopy is really great, I added that. - I found it a pity that I couldn't use the action feature of shooting after your mod. But since the 2x6 plate at the bottom of the slide can be placed one stud back to create a small opening, I was able to mod it so that I could still have this feature while still having the sliding canopy (I the construction as in the manual instead of the 2x4 black brick, with below the brown piece two 1x1 plates and the red connector pin you discarded: not the sturdiest solution, but it works). And if you worry about the tilting of the 2x6 plate: use a 1x2 plate at the end and that's fixed.
I could kind of understand why they didn’t make the cockpit like in the show but why on earth weren’t the others changes added? The front engines literally needed 1 piece each to make it more durable while the bottom only needed a longer technic pin. Really weird but great mod. It makes me wanna try it myself
I see what you're going for but adding a second layer of curved bricks makes the Grogu section stick out too much and makes it look a bit simplistic. I'd reconmend instead of elongating it you should raise it by the same amount, then fill in the gap with slopes and curves similar to the surrounding body. That way you still get the height you're looking for without sacrificing the sculpt. I'd also look to replace the 2x2 area where the clips attach to with something lower profile such as a 2x2 slope with two 1x1 clips at the top.
done this mod, sadly doesn't work. but i think the shooter for this set is inaccurate anyway because there's only one one of them, whereas in the show there's two.
Have one more question; why are you using a 1x2 tile at 2:39 instead of a plate? Will that keep it in place better? Edit: got all the parts and applied the mods btw, love it :D thanks again!
The part list that shows on screen is not the same as the parts list that he correctly has on the Google drive. I ended up needing 1x extra dark bluish gray and 1x light bluish gray part.
With this modification it looks like your gun function will not work, how have you solved that? Otherwise I really like the mods. Especially the engine fixes.
I modify the sets mostly for looks and accuracy, if you’d like the shooter to work you’d have to sacrifice the sliding cockpit mod. Glad you enjoyed the mods 👍
I don't know what are you talking about I cannot find the link for the pieces I want to mod mine and one Starfighter I just got to do it it's my favorite mod for an N1 Starfighter please # have to mod
It’s generally within a couple weeks to a month after the official release. Lego’s normally pretty good at getting sets out there, but it can depend on your region
Funny enough the actual ship actually doesn’t have landing gear :) But hey, why not? I’d recommend using some of the old bracket pieces in dark bluish-gray to make some folding landing gear or to get/build a small stand 👍
The set you can get at Lego or other retail stores, and for the parts I generally use bricklink. Just research your seller and it can get you any part you need :)
Great modifications indeed, I plan to use them all, thanks! :D Does the canopy part have some friction and thus, will it stay closed on its own when tilting the ship?
The canopy may be a little loose, to make it stick a little more I’d put a small plate underneath the modified groove plates on the main canopy build and then some tiles to the main track section. That should give enough friction to hold it wherever you want 😎
We need a UCS version of this thing. I would shell out a scary amount of money for that. Scary.
Ahhhh a lot money!!!!
Agreed we must enjoy a good lego for once of the star wars line

people are talking about the mods but I'm just over here enjoying the editing
Haha! Glad you enjoyed the video LordWaterBottle👍
same. insane editing
Thank you for the great cockpit mod! It was very helpful and the steps were easy to understand since you did it stop motion.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed 👍
Just got my hands on the Mando N1 set and was a bit worried about durability issues I’d heard about. This definitely has me excited to mod
Dude your editing and tutorial style is brilliant.
Wow! You really improved the model! I’ll probably do these mods with my own set
The Stopmotion instructions was absolutely incredible, super easy to follow and really cool to watch
Just a few extra pieces and the model is much stronger and truer to its features. I hope Lego designers were watching this video. Well done!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the mods, but really I’m just a simple man making my way through the Lego universe 😎
Nice video, I love the parts list and attention to detail
Wow, those modifications are great, i can't wait to get my hands on this particular set so i can mod it like you did. Thank you for ideas especially the cockpit one.
This is a really cool video I’ve never modded a Lego before this might just tempt me
I have this set, and I'm considering improving it with these mods. Great video!!!
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video, and enjoy the mods 👍
Great mod, thank you! Underrated channel. Love the editing!
The sliding cockpit mod is amazing 👍
It's insane that it doesn't come like this.
nice mods great idea. I got this lego for my collection too.
Really nice mods & great video presentation !!
u got me at the lost engine animation lol subscribed
this video might make a worth buy of the set

great modifications and maybe even nicer work with the stop motion.
just finished modding like this, i like it a lot :)
2:10 I died when grogs flew around in there lol🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😂😂😅😅😆🤣😂😅😅😅
Gotta keep the baby happy 😎
@@MiniFig1210 lol
This is fucking amazing!! 😍😍 thank you so much for this!!!!
Thanks! Exactly what was meeded
The audio on your like and subscribe is pretty funny :-)
Just got this set. Can’t wait to use these mods! Thanks! Also, you should make a video about the 75301 x-wing landing gear.
Glad you enjoyed! I'll keep that set in mind, definitely could use some upgrades :)
And another one adding some bricks to elongate Grogus Cabin above Mando , please and TY.
What stand is that ? The one your using to display the ship
I like it. It’s similar to my changes, but I did way more. Especially the engines. But I still have a gap on the cockpit that I will close with your solution, thanks 👍🏻

great mod as well, but when building using the parts list it seems there were two extra grey 1x1 and a light grey 1x1s?
Nice dude!!!
Thanks! 😎
Looks lit one question though will the shooter mechanic still fire!?
Possibly, but not with the old button.

I modded mine into my own version of a custom Naboo star fighter with heavier weapons and larger engines and got rid of the yellow markings
How do you like the display stand? Please share link where to get it. Thanks
So, can you not use the spring-loaded shooter after these mods? 'Cause I would really like to keep using it.
done this mod, sadly doesn't work. but i think the shooter for this set is inaccurate anyway because there's only one one of them, whereas in the show there's two.
Buying this and adding the pieces you listed plus if you tile off the front with chrome pieces, I would consider this a UCS
Great video and thanks for the information. Is there a website people generally get the parts from? Thank you
Modding as shown in 2:32 will change the shape of the ship base, no? The 10 x2 and 4 x 2 plates will be visible, or I’m doing something wrong?
Is there a better mod with the sliding screen that still fires I made one but I get a huge pit that looks similar but I would like it cleaner
Other wise the mods look awesome and I am using the back cockpit wings and engine designs
Can you mod the AT-TE when it comes out please
"Patience Viceroy, Patience" :)
I like this lego ship but the only thing that has stopped me from buying it it a lack of a stand that comes in the set
Make a video explaining the process by which one obtains these mystical extra special pieces…
Great!
Have one more question; why are you using a 1x2 tile at 2:39 instead of a plate? Will that keep it in place better?
Edit: got all the parts and applied the mods btw, love it :D thanks again!
My biggest gripe with this set is how big it is, it’s scale is all messed up and would look weird next to other starfighters
I feel like they could have removed the unnecessary amount of exposed studs through more tile pieces
Agreed, needs more tiles and more chrome 😎
The part list that shows on screen is not the same as the parts list that he correctly has on the Google drive. I ended up needing 1x extra dark bluish gray and 1x light bluish gray part.
at 1:30 what is the black piece and how do i apply it?
Just asking do u need the 1 x 2 or can u just use the 2x2 u just put 2x 1x2 for people who don’t have a 2x2
Everything works for me just the back in General store little weak and the main engines
With this modification it looks like your gun function will not work, how have you solved that? Otherwise I really like the mods. Especially the engine fixes.
I modify the sets mostly for looks and accuracy, if you’d like the shooter to work you’d have to sacrifice the sliding cockpit mod. Glad you enjoyed the mods 👍
Does the cockpit mod interfear with the firing mechanism?
Yes, the firing mechanism would be removed 👍
I’m a bit confused here for the part list in the discretion doesn’t fit what’s showed in the video. Which one is correct?? Thank you!!
The part list in the description has been updated with the missing file and is correct, thanks for pointing it out 👍
I don't know what are you talking about I cannot find the link for the pieces I want to mod mine and one Starfighter I just got to do it it's my favorite mod for an N1 Starfighter please # have to mod
Where do you get the display stand from?
It’s a company called Wicked Brick. Really nice display stands and cases 👍
Where can I buy this parts. I can’t find the website
I recommend using a site called Bricklink. You can buy almost any part legos ever made on there 👍
www.bricklink.com/v2/main.page
Anybody know when this set release in stores other then the lego store?
It’s generally within a couple weeks to a month after the official release. Lego’s normally pretty good at getting sets out there, but it can depend on your region
Where is that stand from?
Online shop called Wicked Brick. Highly recommend, very great quality 👍
Where do i get these parts
I’d recommend Bricklink, best place to buy parts 👍
Where are you getting the extra parts from?
I prefer using Bricklink, it’s pretty easy to find and make lists of any parts you need 👍
I'm having difficulty displaying this set because of how wide it is. Any suggestions?
I'd suggest a display stand, works best for me :)
@@MiniFig1210 I used two L shaped brackets and displayed it upright 🙃
Any landing gear MODs?
Funny enough the actual ship actually doesn’t have landing gear :)
But hey, why not? I’d recommend using some of the old bracket pieces in dark bluish-gray to make some folding landing gear or to get/build a small stand 👍
@@MiniFig1210 Already built a stand, was hoping for ideas on how or where to put landing gear...Have a great night
I’d suggest one towards the tail and two near the engines for the best stability 👍
Hi do you have a PDF for this ? Thanks
Yep! Part list can be found in the description 👍
@@MiniFig1210 yip thanks
Why doesn't lego hire people like you. Just, why.
When I get the set if I the pice I do the mods
