Upcoming Big update to my Adelphi base bar

-

 

Three years ago, almost to the day, I was sharing images of my Adelphi base bar in this post.


Since then, it evolved a little bit with each exhibition I brought it to.
And in October of 2025, during an interview with Beyond-the-brick, I talked about updating this diorama once the Mando&Grogu movie would be out.



But since then, something happened: Jon Favreau invited a bunch of youtubers, including the legendary Adam Savage, to visit his studio! And they brought back some amazing footage of the set.



The good news is, there are many things that I got right in my first version!
But also many things that could be improved now that I have more footage.

So I'll just change my plans and update it starting this this weekend instead of waiting for the movie in three weeks...
And this time I may do the instructions while I am at it...

(Side note, we're finally getting minifigs of Carson Teva and a new Zeb! Yeeeeaaah! )

Here it is ! The project I have been keeping semi-secret for almost a year now. The Trailblazer , Kay Vess's ship from Star Wars Outlaws I love that ship and I can't wait to play the game in just two weeks. There is still a LOT of work to do, in fact this photo is not even the latest version. List of current features :  - Turret can rotate and can be removed  - Escape pod can be removed  - Smaller Reactors can rotate around the bigger ones like in the game  - Part of the roof can be removed  - other parts of the roof can be opened  - detailed exterior  - detailed minifigscale interior, all the rooms and main furniture are here The next steps :  - Finish the design of the bigger reactors  - Finish the Canopy of the cockpit (the biggest challenge of the whole ship)  - Exposing it at "Brick Summit" in Montreal on September 14th 2024  - Design the instructions and make them available. F-A-Q : Is this minifigscale ? YES How many pieces ?...

The Mandalorian new ship N-1 Naboo Starfighter

 When I saw what ship was going to replace the Razorcrest, I thought: "It is a small one and it is based on an existing set, there are going be millions of MoCs for it, why bother work on one." But some friends, colleagues and followers insisted that I try. And I have to admit it is a good looking and interesting ship. As I was the first to work on a minifigscale Razorcrest, I felt I had to try. So I started working on it Friday ! - Is it based on an existing official sets ? No - Is it minifigscale ? Yes, but in the higher tier. - Is there room for Grogu in it ? Yes - Is it Modular ? Yes, it makes it easier to work on for me and for the builders. - Is it UCS ? I don't think a Moc this size deserves the label. - Will there be instructions ? Most probably - Is it going to require rare/expensive pieces ? I don't know yet, I am building it in Real Life first instead of starting with stud.io, so I go with what I have in stock. Next steps:  - Refine the build  - Design ...

Razorcrest UCS MoC by Papaglop.

Last summer, I worked a lot on my first version of this ship , based only on the few images from the Mandalorian panel at Star Wars Celebration on April 14th. Then the first season of the show has aired, it was FANTATASTIC and the Razorcrest had a very good screen time, giving me, chapter after chapter, many details to recreate, both exterior and interior. At first I wanted to improve my existing version, but I quickly realized it was to small to support all the details I wanted to add to it. So I decided to start a new one from scratch. My objectives were :  - Make it bigger but still in the minifigscale range,  - Make it as detailed as possible (interior and exterior),  - Make it as studless as possible,  - Make it modular (to allow better accessibility for modifications and for photos) So I did all that ! Weeks after weeks during the Autumn and the Holiday season. At that point, I was not sure if I would embark on the adventure of making digital p...
