Not about release
" How releasing those set was handled aside, this is a good build. There hasn’t been a Nebulon B set before and while building this I began to realize why. This scale makes the physics of the ship work, if it was much larger it would be incredibly difficult to prevent it from falling apart. This scale allows for single stud pieces to do a lot of heavy lifting in detailing. A lego handgun piece was able to represent a bridge. Stacking Studs representing housing quarters. Roller skates depicting multiple stories and achieving specific angles. I rated this build as challenging because pieces will fall off while building. Being half a stud off makes a difference. My ocd would tell me that specific pieces have in a straight line, but paying close attention to the instructions and pictures will assure you that some non intuitive techniques are correct. The mini millennium falcon was a great touch. This set is based of the final scene of Empire and fills in a gap that has been there in the Empire set line for a long time. I paid $98 NIB and it’s something I knew I’d be willing to do. The box has a very unique art style although the shading would suggest there was more variety in piece color. If you’re a collector it’s a must have. It pairs up with other collector sets so well and it seems that dedicated collectors are the ones that will be buying this set anyway. I made one mistake while building but it was a pretty easy fix, didn’t require taking it all apart and starting over. Pictures and dimensions never do lego sets justice. I knew the size before building it and even while building it. But when I put the two halves together it was larger than I thought it would be. Even on second or tenth glance it still seems larger than what I imagined. Hopefully a piece of this information was helpful. "

Perfect Collectors Set
" Empire Strikes Back is my favorite Star Wars film, and this set highlights the best scene. This set is the missing piece in the Episode V sets released so far. "

Take it in
" This set celebrates the history of LEGO modular buildings. You can see the special care put into how this set fits in with other modular buildings. Some surprising building techniques. "
