  • LEGO Star Wars has made a few Mustafar sets since 2005 but the CUSTOM LEGO Star Wars Duel on Mustafar by Republic Bricks might be the better buy at this point... except it has no minifigs. Is that a deal breaker?

    One thing that bugs me about the lava is that there are lines where the sections end which makes sense from a build perspective but the just look funny. However there might be a way to remedy this problem. I noticed that for a lot of the layers, the termination lines split a solid color, meaning that there are a lot of instances where both sides of the termination lines are the same color. I also noticed that a lot of these pieces are different length plates so if you had the patience to swap the pieces, you could create one continuous lava flow just by rearranging the bricks provided.

      I couldn't find my non-pilot version but if LEGO thought it was cool to put Mustafar Anakin in the Straighter, why not put Pilot-Mustafar Anakin in the vid lmaoooo

    This is absolutely amazing! $250 for a custom set of this quality and that piece count is incredible. Once I save up enough money for that, I’d definitely be interested in getting it for myself. It would make a fine addition to my collection

    Good looking set but like many others have stated it being from republic brick ruins any chance of me ordering it. Have had a terrible experience purchasing from him.

    Buddy, the new Battle of the Heroes set is not nice. WAY too small.
