>>11552444if this set were made by nu-lego, instead of a baseplate you'd have an overengineered construction that uses 1000 pieces by itself, the top of the chessboard would be made up of 1x1 black and white tiles, half the pawns would instead be sold separately as a battlepack, and the whole thing would cost 400 dollars
>>11552450from what I understand, the minifig sloppers aren't very impressed either. For one, you really don't get that many figs considering the price point. If you compare it to the mos eisley cantina, for instance, that set has more than half the figs but cost less than half the price. And the figs in that set were a lot of cool unique guys like the cantina band, greedo, the lizard nigga, imperial spy, and a bunch of other aliens with unique head molds and such. With the death star, it's mostly a bunch of generic officers and troopers. And three (3) lukes. Only really notable characters IMO are bathtub trooper, the purple emperor's advisor, and krennic. If if there aren't actually a bunch of cool characters on the death star they could've based the set on, they could've at least made up for it with quantity. More officers, more imperial advisors, , way more troopers and so on.
tldr figfags will probably just bricklink the bathtub trooper and imperial advisor
