No, I hadn't forgotten this A-Wing from the 2011 Star Wars Advent Calendar. But I have to say that I never really liked this ship, even in the set. 6207 released in 2006, and yet the model is correct. I'm not even talking about the one in the set 7134 released in 2000 and which is too connoted Space Classic ... So what about this mini-micro ship ...

For the record, the A-Wing designed by Ralph McQuarrie was originally supposed to be blue. The color was changed to red during the shooting to get around a technical problem: The shooting in front of a blue background, to then add the special effects.

Brickdoctor offered his Midi-Scale version of this really not very charismatic ship, and I must admit that it is quite successful. Fairly basic but ultimately successful. For those who would like to reproduce it the lxf file is for download here: 2011SWAdventDay22.lxf.

We stay in Snowspeeders on a miniature scale with this scene from Omar Ovalle in which Wedge Antilles is working to unbalance an AT-AT with the cable of his machine.

The Snowspeeder is clearly in the spirit of the mini set 4486 AT-ST & Snowspeeder released in 2003. AT-AT in midi format is interesting. It's a bit clumsy, but visually cohesive, and it perpetuates the vintage side of the early 2000s LEGO Star Wars range.

I take this opportunity to offer you the MOC of Brickdoctor, still motivated by the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar: A T-47 Snowspeeder in Midi-Scale format really successful. The .lxf file can be downloaded here: 2011SWAdventDay12.lxf.

Another ship today with this largely average Imperial shuttle. No big innovation in terms of creativity on this model, which however remains immediately identifiable.

She reminds me of the set 20016 BrickMaster Imperial Shuttle released in 2010. The scale is obviously not the same.

If you can, get this set, it is very successful. It is still available for sale on Bricklink for just under 15 €.

Otherwise you can always try to reproduce the MOC of the day from Brickdoctor using the .lxf file provided: 2011SWAdventDay10.lxf.

LEGO has decidedly tried to achieve consistency in the different stages of this Advent Calendar. After Nute Gunray and his Mechno Chair, Chewbacca and his tools, here is the X-Wing of the pilot of yesterday.

We have already had mini or X-Wing microphones in the past with the sets 4484 X-Wing Fighter & TIE Advanced (2003) 6963 X-wing Fighter (2004) et 30051 X-wing Fighter (2010)

The one in this Advent Calendar obviously does not compare with the model in set 30051 (see below), but it is still very fair for a micro model. For lack of anything better, you can always recover the lightsaber handles to replace those you lost during your last move ... In short, you will have understood it, nothing to get carried away today with this vessel that has just the merit of raising the level of this Calendar a little.

In addition, I told myself that this type of set would make sense if in the end, LEGO offered a model to build with all the parts of the different models. In this case, I would be more inclined to agree to compromise on the design of the mini craft or ships and I would have a little more understanding for their very basic design. We are in 2011 and the world of toys is full of products, each more original than the next. You won't be mad at me for not marveling at this type of mini-stuff ....

On the other hand, this Advent Calendar undoubtedly appeals to the youngest, curious to discover every day what is hidden in the numbered boxes. But my 8 year old son moves on a few seconds after discovering these gifts some of which are barely on par with those found in Kinder eggs ... Only minifigs find favor in his eyes and I do not. don't blame ... 

Brickdoctor has just uploaded its Midi-Scale version of the X-Wing and offers the .lxf file for download:  2011SWAdventDay9.lxf.

And yes, there are some who have no luck ... Opening of the box of the day, and unpacking. The drama, a part is missing (Cone 1 x 1) while 4 more unused parts on this model are in the bag. and here I am stuck on the construction of this OG-9 Homing Spider Droid, a well-known actor of the Clone wars and that LEGO produced in the system range in 2008 with the set 7681 Separatist Spider Droid.  

So I replace the room with another found in the souk of my son's room to take the photo.

If any of you have any missing pieces, please let us know in the comments.

In the meantime, you can always console yourself with this uninteresting mini-set with the Midi-Scale version of Brickdoctor whose .lxf file can be downloaded at this address: 2011SWAdventDay4.lxf .
