I find it weird too since the TIE fighter is sand blue in the movies, but they make its sets light grey. Meanwhile the snowspeeder is light grey in the movies, but they make it white in the sets.
I hadn't even seen that set yet. For me, ship builds are just a LOT of grey. I love the finished product but I like to be working on something else at the same time so I can take a break from it here and there. I have The Justifier sitting here waiting next in my to build queue but I'll probably end up pausing and building a little set in the middle.
I’ve got mine sat in a cupboard raft for later in the year. I wasn’t really ready to get it just yet, but was making an order to get the double VIP points a couple of weeks ago, so got it early.
I’ve mainly got it to go with my midi-scale Star Destroyer (set 8099) from 2010. And because I done have even close to the space for any of the UCS Star Destroyer sets!
