Indeed, it all looks great, except for the plates around the engine. They're quite bowed. I hope that's just a sign of hasty assembly. Even though I probably won't buy this set because it's in the new colors, it does look they did a superb job with (...) (20 years ago, 11-Feb-07, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) SNIP (...) Cool set! I like this one and will order it as soon as my wife regaines contiousness. Oh, on the shop at home website, the pictures won't load. This may keep some shoppers from ordering one (or 5). Mark (20 years ago, 11-Feb-07, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) Awesome! I really like that you made the UCS set compatible with minifig scale, and hope you'll apply the same concept to other UCS sets (AT-AT) in the future. -Steven (20 years ago, 11-Feb-07, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) I would be interested in the result, Rob. Just for your information: CA has a much higher material damping coefficient in comparison to ABS. So CA will make less noise and sound very dump when it hits the ground. Especially for the classical (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-07, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Hi Rob, thanks for your feedback! In that case I would think these are US-made bricks, since the LEGO-logo on top of the bricks is of the old design.

(...) I wouldn't assume that 1965 was necessarily as good as, say, 1990. But you're right insofar as quality from the 60's and 70's is not necessarily the same quality as the 80's and 90's. If someone's really looking for proof or disproof of (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-07, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)
