man, LEGO's habit of making the Landspeeder bigger than it's supposed to be has gotten WAY out of hand

to be honest, that paint scratch on the front of the speeder kind of takes away from the builds realism just with its more cartoony look

Sure it's a well-designed set, but imagine if we got another well-designed UCS set that people actually want, like idk a Venator or a Nebulon-B

To be fair yes, this is a good UCS set by all means but it's still amazing how LEGO is still yet to make a UCS set of far more interesting and iconic ships like literally any CIS capital ship, any Rebel capital ship that isn't the Tantive IV, or any Republic(old or new) capital ship. Because yes, when I think of an iconic Star Wars vehicle that's deserving of 7 different play sets and a UCS set I immediately think of Luke's Landspeeder, the same way I instantly think of Mace Windu when I think of the LAAT Gunship or how Clone Commanders are basically identical to Clone Pilots...

As someone who is generally terrible at applying lego stickers, I was amazed by the discussion on sticker placement. Had no idea there were so many considerations for applying stickers. I'm usually happy if the sticker ends up somewhat centered and not noticeably crooked.

I can see some people buying this but for this is something i will pass without hesitation. From a Lego POV it makes also sense to make this because it is one of the "iconic" things of the OG Trilogy which wasnt build as an UCS.

How can Lego justify stickers here? I hate stickers on Lego in all cases, but I am fuming mad at them for making customers make up for the lack of printing in such an expensive, AFOL-targeted set. Hard pass. No sale. Get thee to a printer, Lego, or lower prices.

Now that this is done, we demand a UCS MSC "Mouse Droid".

How this slab of plastic is beyond 100 USD is beyond me. Wrong shapes and colours, 2 minifigs, and overall just a slab of plastic. To think they have normalized these ridiculous prices to this point is really..I don't think people realize just how much money LEGO makes..well, the joke is on us.

Great video and review! However, for $200 the word "sticker" came up far too much for my liking. Not at all your fault, I blame Lego. I think I'll pass.

Say what you will about LEGO's blunders in the market research, I'm just glad we're getting more and more original UCS sets over remakes. After the X-wing, Falcon, Y-Wing, Death Star, R2-D2 etc - as great as the updated sets are - it's really great to get completely new sets. The A-Wing, Republic Gunship, AT-AT and now this.

What makes your reviews great is the candidness with which you disparage the parts you don't like, and talk about the parts you do like. I appreciate how professional you are whilst being completely honest and transparent. I wouldn't mind a UCS Invisible Hand or just more prequel stuff in general.

Lot of people complained about this set and thought it was a joke when it came out. But I for one am happy that we have a Star Wars UCS set that has a different colour palette

I think the wear on the front is probably sufficient. I wonder if the folks at LEGO took a lesson from all of the rust stickers for the Ecto-1. It was so much - many people, including myself, opted not to use them at all.

I couldn’t bring myself to buy it. I missed the May the 4th promo, but was deciding between this and the UCS Gunship. Ended up buying neither.

This is actually not that bad, hopefully this is the last lukes landspeeder they do for a long time. Great video Jang.

Maybe the landspeeder doesn't represent the most interesting and iconic SW vehicle, but it transports a lot of nostalgia. When I remember the Kenner commercials in my childhood, the landspeeder comes instantly to my mind. But I would prefer, if LEGO only adds minifigures, where the vehicle is in the same size. For that model, I would rather prefer an appropriate very small stand or support to display it as known from the movies and furthermore prints where reasonable (esp. the front), than an "impressive" black stand and exclusive minifigures. If Lego needs exclusive minifigures to sell their 18+ fan product of a big scale vehicle, then something is not correct. I additionally don't understand, why they were not able to stick more close to the source material regrading proportions. Abstracting design at a small size is complete OK and also for integrity reasons, but in this scale and basically at a quite plain and basic shaped vehicle, it feels some odd to me.

Suburb review Jang - thank you for all the close-up scenes so we can get a really good feel for the details of the model and how it's put together. It's also great to see that despite the interior having a lot of weird colour parts - none of those are visible at all in the finished model. I like the set!

I am not against stickers...on cheaper sets. On 200€ UCS sets, I think they're not admissible, not unless you're making something in micro-scale where stickers are the only way to put in details that bricks simply can't achieve at that scale (think UCS Hogwarts Castle).
