Venator:Here's the important part of all. I do like the outlook of the Venator, it is nicely design and the stud makes is some how looks more detail.
What do you guys think of the outlook? I think it looks great. Is not a rejected set.
Now the front part interior under the hood:
Palpy office:
Palpy secret compartment where he keep the Death Star hologram in a crate and place the crate there:
Here's the front dual-blaster cannon which is placed on both side of the ship. It is adjustable but not rotatable:
While here's the four dual-blaster cannon on the side of the bridge which is use to attack Vulture Droid and also the Invisible Hand.
Here's the bridge where LEGO have downsize them:
Here's the retractable bar for you to carry the ship around:
The cockpit reveal when you pull the bar out.
The middle part is where the bomb dropping mechanism is placed. On the other side, there will be a bar for you to twist.
This thing is not attached to the ship but rather is placed in the ship only.
Here's the bomb storage box which can store up to five bomb with the mechanism:
How's the mechanism work? Look below:
The bomb fits in between the hole of two tooth, and when you twist the bar it brings the bomb down. However, the bomb sometimes get stuck above. The designer did a great job to hide the red technic pin but not the bar.
And here's the look of the bomb.
While at the back of the ship is the giant blaster cannon, manned by Clone Gunner together with two flick-fire missile:
Is quite sad that we have to move both the upper and lower wing to reveal this cannon.
This is how it looks like under the cockpit:
To rotate the cannon around, make sure the platform touches the brick of the lower wing.
Blast 'em!
Now to the to rear part of the ship:
Looks at his detailed engine. . . but the gap of the wing beside is big. . .
Now to the escape pod bay:
Extra parts:Not much are left. . .
Completion:
Overall the ship looks good on the outside. But sometimes the functions can't properly work and the back of the part have a gap where you can see inside the ship. Since now got a 30% off, is a good buy.
