1/15/2024 0 Comments Carbonite chamber legoI was a few pages into the second manual when one of my worst fears became a reality, a missing piece. It happened to me multiple times and while it was time-consuming and annoying, I’m glad that I was able to re-do it properly so that the build was one hundred percent correct. This set design is made so that it “corrects itself”, what I mean is that if you misplace a piece it won’t be long before you realize that something feels or looks odd. The building experience was relatively easy and straightforward. The small bags allow you to have more control over all, I put the smaller pieces in separated spots from the bigger ones, and even with this precaution finding some pieces was a pain in the butt.įor smaller sets, I still believe it’s a waste of plastic, but for the UCS Razor Crest, it made sense to have everything separated into two or three bags. With so many pieces it can be very easy to lose one or spend unusual amounts of time trying to find the smaller ones. But, in this case, I totally understand the need for smaller bags. In previous builds, I criticized the unnecessary use of small bags, I thought it was just a total waste and for the most part, I still do. The bigger bags contain smaller bags that carry the small pieces. I won’t lie, it felt a little overwhelming for someone who has just returned to building Lego sets. Inside these boxes, there’s a total of thirty-six bags and four manuals. The unboxing was simple but very cool, the gigantic box contains two more boxes and each one of them has concept art of The Mandalorian series printed on both sides. I built the recently released AT-TE and BD-1 sets but both of them are just over 1,200 pieces, five times less than this monstrous Razor Crest. I built some small sets when I was a small kid and it wasn’t until this year that I returned to the wonderful world of LEGO Star Wars. This was my first experience building a LEGO set of this size. Hopefully, this review will help you decide if you should spend your hard-earned money on this set or not. Even if it’s “only” six hundred USD, this set is far from being cheap. The retail price is $600 USD, I had to pay around twenty percent more due to import taxes and fees. Of course, you can do what I did: buy first and then worry about where to place it later. The set is enormous, and it might be hard to find a proper location for it unless you have a dedicated space for your LEGO sets. It includes 5 Minifigures: Din Djarin, Grogu, the Mythrol, Kuiil, and a Blurrg. With 6,187 pieces, the UCS Razor Crest is the third largest Star Wars Lego set with only the UCS Millennium Falcon and UCS AT-AT surpassing it. The Ultimate Collector Series Razor Crest is set #75331, this is the first Star Wars UCS set that makes its appearance in a tv show and not a movie. General specs and overview of the LEGO UCS Set It was such a sad moment when it was destroyed by Moff Gideon’s cruiser. I didn’t love it when I saw it for the first time but it slowly grew on me and now I love it. The gunship’s design is simple but effective, it’s easy to know that it’s a powerful ship just by looking at it. Like many people in Star Wars, Din Djarin deeply cared about his ship. The Razor Crest is equipped with a pair of laser cannons and two massive engines, as well as an escape pod and a small carbonite freezing chamber.įor the most part of the series, the ship took Din Djarin to multiple planets Pagodon, Arvala-7, Nevarro, Trask, Corvus, and more. Din Djarin aka “Mando” lived in it and also used it as his primary transport to hunt bounties across the Outer Rim. The complete name of the ship that we saw in The Mandalorian is an ST-70 class Razor Crest M-111 Assault Ship. But, the big question is if it’s worth it, let’s find out. I was able to get my hands on it and it was a memorable occasion with good and not-so-good experiences. It was announced at the end of September and around two weeks later the set was officially released on October 7, 2022. The UCS Razor Crest set is LEGO’s tribute to one of the newest ships of the Star Wars universe, the Razor Crest.
