7191Like all collectors, I have a problem with the stickers. My last purchase, the Rebel Blockade Runner 10019 is complete, in great condition (after washing the parts), with its box and documentation, but I had to remove all the stickers that had aged badly.
Considering the price of sticker sheets on BrickLink or eBay, I went hunting for scanned sheets.
But almost impossible to find boards scanned correctly.
I have found some, I put them here, as well as a template to make your UCS stickers yourself.
By the way, if anyone has a scan of the 10019 board, I would gladly take ....

There has been progress on the Technic parts-based MOC X-Wing designed by drakmin.

Here is finally the completed model, with it is true some compromises on the dimensions and the proportions, but it must be recognized that the challenge was of size.

The result is very interesting, and deserves some attention.

See you in this topic at Eurobricks to learn more and read the comments of this MOCeur and of all those who are interested in this original creation.
