Ahh, the old robot arm for the cockpit side window trick. :-)
This plate surfacing technique is much more realistic than my conventional use
of plates and slopes (circa 2000), and makes attaching surface detail easier
(and reduces the mass and parts count). This style of construction (starting
with the ISD) is facilitated by the newer wedge plates with more gradual angles.
I’d like to see more official Lego models built this way, and more types of
wedge and wing plates.
As for pricing, that’s pretty close to what it would cost you to build a custom
model with this parts count.
This is a very impressive model.

ps. The Falcon only had five landing legs when Obi-Wan was a passenger. ;-)
