Get it while you can!

Seriously amazing set. If you like the star destroyer, buy this before it retires. If you want a UCS set but you’re not a fan of the ship, go for something else. It is an intermediate level build, but lengthy. It’s presence is just epic, and any Star Wars fan will go crazy if they see it in person. I made a couple small detail modifications to mine :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good set, but major flaws are apparent
on January 13, 2023
Posted by: BashfulDonut024
This is truly an incredible model. It knows what it is, and what it isn’t. It is a detailed display piece that holds up well… if you don’t move it and you ignore the rear bottom body panels that are flimsy at best, and impossible to keep together at worst. Ignoring that problem, the set is impressively big, and allows the builder to enjoy their work when it is finished. The stand, while passable, comes apart too easily. For MSRP, there are much better options. But this is the set for you if you want a giant triangle on display

That isn't how this iconic starship can start its mission. Could you please double-check your building steps for the rear? We also recommend pressing all bricks together until you hear the 'click' sound. We're always happy to have a closer look with you at LEGO.build/Service-BV.

Great set!

In my humble opinion, this set is for enthusiasts that missed out on set 10030......overall great improvements with Lego Technic! It truly is a showpiece and a great compliment to the UCS Tie Fighter and Falcon! Just needs a Darth Vader......it’s his ship!
Highly recommended!

It was a fun build a bit heavy, but very detailed. It's a great piece that will have me bragging to my friends. It was a great build though I enjoyed every minute!

Great build to share with son/daughter
on September 19, 2020

This set is massive...19 sets of bags (usually 2 or 3 bags per set, and within some of the bags are smaller bags with smaller pieces). We built this over a period of several weeks (not rushed) and usually one set of bags at a time.
Great to watch the build progressive...frame of Star Destroyer, then panels, engines, bridge, etc. Once you start, be prepared for it to take up a lot of space to build (both the actual lego model, as well as the pre-sort of bricks for each bag set...plus the giant instruction manual).
Loved it all...wish they would re-release the Super Star Destroyer again, or even a Dreadnaught.
Thanks for the fun...our family enjoyed it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Looks impressive, but structure is very unstable
on September 11, 2020
Posted by: timster
This is a very impressive piece, offering amazing detail. The structure's shell itself is very unstable, however. I am certain this is because of the very long, flat structures that comprise most of this piece. These long, flat structures cause a lot of torque on when there is any movement, which loosens the other parts or causes them to come off.
I took it apart multiple times to make sure all the flat pieces were all still interlocked properly, but every time I had to move it, even a little, I'd hear pieces snapping off on the inside (which is mostly hollow).
After multiple attempts to ensure the parts were firmly together, I had to finally glue certain pieces together to get the structure to remain stable.
I laugh at the Lego rep's response to someone else who mentioned this problem. The Lego rep said to 'make sure all parts are secure'. The problem is that the parts can be secure, then unsnap or become loose (due to all the torque) when the set is moved even a little. It's a poor design; I'm not sure what tests Lego ran to make sure this was a sound design. I understand the set is not made to be moved often, but the build process itself does require moving the structure sometimes and even that would cause parts to loosen or come off.
Also be sure not to underestimate the volume of space this set takes - it's massive, but gorgeous.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Lots of fun to put together. Looks amazing when complete. It is definitely not for play as it can be a tad flimsy. Much more of a display piece.
I would recommend this to a friend!
