It is possible to move the model on the stand, but you need to make sure to hold the two sides of the stand. I'm sure your partner (if applicable) will be psyched to have this bad boy in the living room. You can do it all by yourself, but it's more convenient to lift the model, have your lovely assistant remove the landing gear struts and help you positioning the stand.īackside shows there is some leeway for moving the model to the left or the right.ĭoes this setup look cool or what?! Granted, you still need a lot of space, but it's mostly vertical space, which allows you to more easily place it somewhere on a cupboard or on a sidetable in the living room. I can recommend gettting some help with placing the model on the stand. ![]() Taddaaaa! Here's that piece of junk placed on the stand. I you still find it hard to put it together, there's a nice video on the Wicked Brick website, showing how it's done.

Two plates will connect the left side and the right side and give the stand its rigidity. The two sides below show the angle at which the model will be positioned. ![]() Here you can see an image of the baseplate, with a very cool engraving of the Millennium Falcon. The stand itself is comprised of five elements: ![]() This results in a building experience for the stand, as well as for the actual model To facilitate shipping, the stand is made up of different parts and it needs to be put together. The entire package comes in a well protected bubble mailer. But before we start, I would like to thanks Kevin Murden for his enthusiastic response and making this review possible. Needless to say I will be reviewing both products. This stand comes with a, separately sold, minifig stand. One of these solutions (I will review another one next month) is the display stand made by Wicked Brick. However, if you are not into LEGO building (insert wink here), or you don't have the (mosty) Technic parts, there are other cool solutions to get yourself a stand. One of the first solutions was building the Efferman stand, made by our very own Eurobricks member Efferman. ![]() An outstanding set with one fundamental "flaw" and that is its sheer size, which makes it really hard to display it properly.
