Also check out this video for behind-the-scenes goodies:
“angular bricks in tan!” i.e. 500 odd tan cheese. So cool!
Wow. Just… wow. That’s incredible. The tan cheese alone would be worth it, but there’s a lot of awesome there.
The model is beautiful, it has amazing parts, and the price-per-part is astonishingly low. What’s not to like?
Hmm, it looks like five blue baseplates to me.
There are exactly 556 tan cheese slopes, according to the video. The price is amazing compared to the amounts of rare pieces included in the model.
