    I've been eyeing the UCS Slave 1 for while, but this one satisfied the itch......and the Mando and Boba MiniFigs are a good bonus

    I’ll have to pass on this one. I’ll probably pass on many more since I’m interested in a new truck. I want some more creature comforts now in my older age.

    Oh, I know your response but due to deference to your skills and abilities, I felt I would be remiss in not throwing it out there.

    Maybe in 40 years, it could be a bucket list item :notsure:


    In the meantime, how about some Red Squadron mini x-Wings providing high cover for Luke for my eventual mod of the Trench Run Diorama? This is just a temp display.

    Much appreciated, but they're my designs. I don't want to give them to Bricklink/Lego.

    That said, been dinking around with something. Don't plan to do anything with them, just wanted to see how the system works.

    So a guy I know, buys lego, builds them, then resells them and put it all under an LLC so his lego obsession is all business expensed :rofl:

    Some more pics and details of the finished paddle boat

    Length: 30 in/89 studs
    Beam, without paddle guards: 4.75 in/15 studs
    Beam, with guards: 10 in/32 studs
    Height, without base: 12.6 in/33.33 bricks
    Height, with base: 14.75 in/39 bricks

    Somewhere around 4150 parts

    The paddles are driven by a 9V micromotor with a 2.79:1 gear reduction and turn at about 10.5rpm. Power switch is accessed through the starboard boarding hatch aft of the paddle guard, so the upper deck only needs to be removed to change batteries. Due to this drive mechanism, there isn't much of an interior.

    Find some yellow ones in a drawer, and then you can have yellow ones for dusty runs too

    Good ideas. I'll have to see what I can dig out of the extra parts drawer.
