| Author: | BrickCollection | | Posted: | Jun 15, 2021 14:53 | | Subject: | Wolfpack Clone Trooper | | Viewed: | 125 times | | Topic: | LEGO products | |
|
| So I was rebuilding a 2014 AT-AP (75043) and using some instructions from a previous
AT-AP when I discovered that in the back of the instructions the Wolfpack clone
trooper looks more like the 212th clones in 75036 than the real-life Wolfpack
clone (sw0537) in 75045 which looks like the 501st clone in 75002. Is there a
version like this anywhere or was this a mistake?
Thanks,
BrickCollection.

The different interior is because the set was released in 2000 and produced through
2003 (at least). In 2000 they still used those transparent part trays (inlays)
to present some interesting parts. Sets from later production runs did not have
that tray anymore and the parts from the tray just came in an additional bag.
Of course this does not explain why they changed the age recommendation. Maybe
it was just a marketing decision to make the set more interesting for younger
children (or their parents).
|
Ok, thank you, that explains at least part of it. So in terms of (collection)
value both sets would be the same?
|
I would say the set with the parts tray might be a bit more valuable for some
collectors, but certainly not that much (5-10€ maybe).

Baseplates don't have bottom tubes, so you won't be able to use them
as roof plates as you are trying to do (hence the name baseplate). Instead,
what you need is a regular 16 x 16 plate:
By the way, the dedicated Studio forum is here: https://forum.bricklink.com/

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1257201
The recent Batmobile set inspired me to do the same for Adam West's sweet
ride. As far as I could tell the original 1955 Lincoln Futura concept car was
white or possibly light pea soup green (it's hard to tell from the old photos).
I found lots of photos of people's own concepts cars in a rainbow of colors
and red looked the sharpest so I went with that.
Even though I tried to stay close to the original LEGO design, this project wasn't
as easy* as I initially thought it might be. I had to significantly rework the
front and back ends and raise the body by half a plate so the wheels would clear
the new wheel wells (the Batmobile added a fender whereas the original Futura
really didn't have much of one). Undoing the enormous rocket booster was
also a challenge.
I'm still not totally satisfied with the back end (I've tried a number
of variations), so if anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them. Overall
though it was a fun little distraction!
* and what's the deal with this part?
It hasn't been produced in red in 10 years! I didn't think such an unassuming
piece would be so difficult to acquire. Finding a seller with 6 in stock was
a challenge.

I recently acquired 2 sets 6098, both sealed, but one has written age "8 - 12"
while the other one has "7 - 12". I found images of both versions online, but
not whether there are any more differences or if one is more rare than the other.
Any help would be appreciated.

At a guess I would say one is set 6098 and one is 6091?
Or it's possible one of the copies you have was originally sold in Europe
and one in maybe North America and they had different boxes / age guides for
the different areas they were being sold in.

They have both written 6098 on them, I already checked whether that could be
the case.

just have a look at my 12V train motor. It melted from inside until it stopped

Wow cannot restart ist, think it is trash.
I used to run the disney train in my load storefront permanently, so i need any
ideas/experiences how long i can run these motors without trashing another one?
Will try to put the next on a timer.
Maybe there is also a way of cleaning or oiling those motors for a better run,
i have no experiences with that.
Some infos on how to proceed would be gladful.

I gotta agree with Bret’s input: movie scene driven, and I like it.
Empirically, I appreciate smoothness in Lego builds. Not a fan of stud exposure
for builds. It’s more of a challenge to create/design Lego builds without it,
but well worth it.
After all, we can’t have it all, though it doesn’t stop us from trying... Just
refrain from moving the build around, or take the pieces off of the board before
doing so 
Btw, too many of the recent (Disney) Lego SW set designs seem not to consider
this, and they suck completely, imho of course.

If you have this set in your collection and can confirm you Mace Windu came with

an unrecognized variant that ought to be added to the catalog, along with his

I've got a fresh unopened copy. I think I bought it for my son who wanted
the Tactical Droid, but we never built it. I can open it though if no one else
comes forward to help out.
It's a bit...pricey.

I'm not asking you to blow $250 on this question unless you really want to...

Well, the price tag on the box says only $39.99
But, now I see the Tactical Droid was featured in the last Bad Batch episode
so I should open the set and keep the droid, right??

The pieces need to move to reenact the scene. While some way to stick the pieces
down would be useful, it would look odd because in the movie, the pieces glide
around the board.
