If extending the front landing pad gets in the way of the flight transformation, then just relocate the extension studs when in flight. If that's too much of a hassle then you can instead shorten the rear pads. Shorter rears, though, leaves more weight resting on the engines in landed mode. The engine extensions can, in turn, be reduced with minor modifications. No matter what, the fact that this shipped with these really awkward and unnecessary quirks is a head-scratcher. This could have easily been set up to be flat when on the ground.

@yournutt 3 года назад

I'm not sure I understand the problem with the ship resting on the engines? Looking at it across the shows, it looks like the ship is almost entirely resting on the engines when landed, with a small landing gear at the front

@legomattie3295 3 года назад

On the front i added 2 round studs and 2 skate pieces. On the rear 2 open studes and some kind of piece i dont know what it is called. It looks a bit like ski's but with forked ends. Result: engine off the ground, stable on just the lamding gear and cockpit can still rotate

@mikeynewPFF 3 года назад

the unnamed loyalist actually appears multiple times throughout the show (on different sides of the mandalore conflict, somehow), and i really appreciate LEGO for putting in the effort to make a specific figure, in stead of a random fighter. However i do wish LEGO goes back and makes another mandalorian battlepack containing death watch minifigures

@generalobi3669 2 года назад

They appeared on both sides because before Maul took over, they were all together. After that, Bo-Katan and people loyal to her escaped and remaining Mandos painted their armor black

@branja_stipan3110 3 года назад

only gaps... Canopy is a really tough piece to work with. I guess the space for both minifigs to sit with jetpacks is a good enough reason for the gaps. But the same problem with the same piece is apparent in 2012 version of the fighter, so it is also kinda sad to see that the designers have not found the way to get passed it. Had a great potential. Slave 1, if i can call it like that now, is a way better design, even with its gap/s.

@davidslusser8389 3 года назад

There’s really only one problem with the ship. The engines in universe are the rear landing gear. And there would be a front landing gear the drops down for the front. Or it would just balance on the engines.

@AbsolutelyJason Год назад

I think to modify the front landing gear to make it level would interfere with the wing transformation feature

@cassl7001 3 года назад

@@aceofmason510 It’s definitely a compromise, however jang is usually pretty good at pointing those things out! Certainly warrants a slightly off position for the landed mode.

@numark79 2 года назад

My personal modification that I am using to fix the landing "tilt": Move the front two 1x3 sloped bricks under the cockpit up four studs towards the nose. In this position the wings have enough clearance to still let the cockpit rotate 360 degrees freely without interference, and the forward tilt (while still present) is not nearly so pronounced. Short of custom modifications requiring extra pieces or alternate builds this is how I have mine configured and I think it works pretty well.

@nightelfuser Год назад

That's exactly what I thought when I noticed the issue. I'm not sure why nobody has mentioned it. I'm sure that we could also modify other parts of the ship to improve upon it without the need of extra pieces. The 2012 design has 140 less pieces, but that fact is not very noticeable when you compare them side by side, which means that the 2021 version is not getting the most out of this advantage.

@legomattie3295 3 года назад

Seems to me it needs those landing gears older sets had, which you can retract. You might even solve that landing on the engines issues with it. Not sure if it would be stable though. Canopy gap does bother me as well. And of course, I will buy it anyhow, since it is Star Wars and has good minifigs. Ow and the price isnt that bad at all. Still wish I bought the old version back then. Can you do a comparison between the 2?

@Frodo_Shaggins 3 года назад

Seriously what is up with the lack of landing gears now? I know this set lands with it's wings up but even the old version had other landing gears. Not just this but so many other sets don't have anything like that now. The Razor Crest, the Bad Batch Shuttle, and so many more. A simple mechanism would do but they don't bother.

@shadowcat1606 3 года назад

Two more flaws in my opinion... first, there are no studs to hold the minifigs in place (i know, with the canopy-placement that would have been problematic, but still), which is something i'm not really a fan of (and wouldn't have been a fan of as a child, either, because i didn't want my minifigures to tumble around inside a vehicle while driving it or swishing it around) and second, and even worse, once again a vehicle without storage room for the intended minifigure's accessoires. I hate it when they lack those. But yeah, the worst is definitely the unsealed cockpit.
