I'd like to think that the Master Builders at LEGO were inspired by some of the AFOL creations, most particularly Jeff Jardine's ISD Pursuer ((URL) which preceded the official set by several weeks and is a simmilar design... I hope we'll see more (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)

So was this an in house Lego design or did they get outside help? It just seems to me that the Star Destroyer is built with a more AFOL technique than even the Blockade Runner or UCS X-Wing (which cheat with printed patterns for detail when they (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Hi All, Wasn't sure if this was the best question for Star Wars, Military, or Mecha folks. I'm interested in building the fighter jet and mecha models on the back of the 7163 box. Has anyone attempted this? I could probably duplicate the sections (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.mecha)

That's the TIE Defender with the three wing pylons you were referring to. Don't know if you've seen our custom UCS TIEs but we've done quite a few of them. Regards, ACPin & Sons In lugnet.starwars, Jesse Alan Long writes: Long (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) They probably named it that because it sounds cool. I mean, which sounds better? "Oh no, theres a star destroyer headed right for us!" or "oh no, theres a ship destroyer headed right for us!". Hasta La Vista, Sean (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)

No, it's just called a "Star Destroyer" for the same reason that the USS Enterprise is a "Starship". The Enterprise is a Ship designed to operate amongst the stars - likewise the SD is simply a military vessel operating in space. Andrew. "Mark (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) No, the Star Destroyer could never destroyer a star. in ANH Han made the comment that all the ships in the starfleet could not destroy a planet (being Aldeeran) I suspect it is called a "Star Destroyer" for the fearsome name. the Empire ruled (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Hey All, I don't usually post here (I'm a .castle guy) but my cousin is a Star Wars MOC builder and he built this recently. He isn't a Lugnet member so I am posting this for him.

Can the Imperial Star Destroyer really destroy stars? I mean, didn't it take something the size of the Death Star to destroy a mere planet? Maybe these would more aptly be named "Imperial Ship Destroyer" and "Death Planet"... Mark (energizing (...) (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.starwars)
