Description

There are other Inquisitors, but their appearances have mostly been in comics or books rather than on screen. Among these is the Sixth Brother, the only one missing from the single digit lineup-unless he’s the one recently featured in theTales of the Jedi series. There was also one in the Star Wars Visions episode “T0-B1”. These Inquisitors seem unlikely to get figures, unless they return in some other live-action or animated media.

Includes 5 minifigures: Pao, Director Krennic, Bodhi Rook and 2 Imperial Death Troopers, plus a K-2SO. This set features three Inquisitors from Kenobi, but omits the character of the Fourth Sister. This less prominent member appears in fewer scenes and with less dialogue-if any?-than her compatriots. I’m not sure what the best way to include her might be, unless they make more sets based on season one of the series or include her in season two or some other project. One of the best possibilities is, of course, Fortress Inquisitorious, which has potential for including many of the missing Inquisitors. You probably completed that build a few weeks ago, and wings already start to bend. It can (and it will !) only go worth over time. Even official product with way less constraint tend to bend over time (10030, 75095, 10212, and probably a few others).The set was provided for review by LEGO. All opinions expressed are those of the author. Minifigures Um, some constructive criticism would be appreciated if it contained specificity rather than simply stating you think they look terrible. As expected, 75336 Inquisitor Transport Scythe looks absolutely brilliant. Clever combinations of wedge plates and tiles recreate the Scythe's characteristic shape and the interior is impressively spacious, with more than enough room for the provided Inquisitors. The minifigures are splendid too, although also including Uncle Owen would have been even better. However, I dislike the noticeable gaps between the Inquisitor's shoulders and his armour, which the prior Grand Inquisitor minifigure avoided. Moreover, the red stripe on this character's chest is printed slightly off-centre, but his insignia looks great. The decoration across the torso and legs compares favourably with the onscreen villain too, perfectly finished with an elegant cape.

I think you should have go with a model that is "only" 50% bigger than 75156. This scale would have been more than enough to have all the details you need, and you would have strongly reduce all the problems related to structures (beyond some point, those can not be removed, this is why it is important not to make the model pointlessly big). Fifth Brother, like the Grand Inquisitor, has appeared in minifigure form previously. Once again though, this minifigure shares little with its predecessor, wearing darker armour and reflecting the many differences between the Fifth Brother's animated and live action designs. His shoulder armour looks excellent and I appreciate the distinctive headgear too, which does return from the 2016 minifigure. I am thrilled to be sharing this MOC with everyone, it is a UCS Krennic's Shuttle. The original model is courtesy of @cavegod, it was a pleasure to work with Pete again. He sent me over the LDDs to get started on the instructions, and after going through the model and building a scenic display, I built the model and am over the moon with it. Obi-Wan Kenobi appears in three summer sets and this version takes inspiration from his attire on Tatooine, hardly resembling the character's traditional Jedi garb. The dark tan poncho looks splendid and I love the sand blue shirt underneath, which introduces some colour, without losing the earthy shades associated with Tatooine's desolate terrain.

I think the best way to describe the wing weight here is that yes, physics determines that over time the torque from the tips of the wings will cause bending of the wing shape, BUT it will be miniscule, if even noticeable at all (Cavegod's has been standing for 6 months and looks good as new). This set is basically what 75284: Knights of Ren Transport Ship should've been; a very great, large playable spaceship that can accomodate the crew it's supposed to be designed to do! Although the landing skids don't retract, I still like that they give off the ship's impression of slightly hovering off the ground as they're fairly hidden by being positioned near the central spine of the Scythe's chassis. This set does so much right and was such a pleasure to build; surprisingly big with the wings down too! It can be displayed both in "Flight Mode" (Wings folded down) as well as "Landed Mode" (Wings folded up). The transition between these two display styles is quite simple and easy to do with just a single person. The goal here was to give others who build the MOC the ability to choose their display style based on how much spare room they have. To make it short, you have a model that is twice bigger but you are are far from having twice more details. In other words, you had to deal with all the problems of a big build (complex build, bending parts), without taking advantage of it. Moreover, the dark brown belt, trousers and gloves correspond with the onscreen character and this hair component also looks superb, capturing realistic texture. I think the dark orange colour appears slightly too bright in relation to the series, although many Obi-Wan minifigures employ the same hair colour and I can understand the wish to maintain consistency between them.
