Really great work! Even watching the whole video I still had a "doh!" moment when you popped the switch cover off to turn on the lights. Extremely well disguised with the dummy panel and comm tower! Looks right out of Episode I 🎉
Wow, thank you! We’re still very much padawan when it comes to electrical wiring, so the fact that the on/off switch still worked after we placed it in the hidden panel was a big win for us. Ha!
Alex and Dani, this is excellent! Full stop! As a lifelong modeler, I was looking forward to the model kits that would be inspired by "The Phantom Menace." Though I was not disappointed with what we got, this movie's actual major contribution to our hobby was that it gave modelers an entirely new Science Fiction concept to work with: Pod racers. And while Anakin's bespoke Pod Racer was the only one to be released in kit form - I was also hoping for a model of Sebulba's Pod Racer for the diorama possibilities, alas . . . - modelers the world over took the basic idea, and ran with it, producing hundreds of canon-compliant masterpieces - just like the one you shared with us in this video! I even remember hearing about a model club that sponsored a two-contest where entrants had to scratch build their own Pod Racers. First, they would compete in a classic, IPMS-style model contest. And then they'd be used to compete in a game where they were 'raced' according to rolls of dice! 17th Like.
Thank you so much, Mark! We agree - Sebulba’s pod is awesome. There’s an entire spread dedicated to Sebulba in our old Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary and Dani was geeking out over all the details in it, like the modified chair so that he could pilot with his Dug hand/food combination. Wildly cool!
Wow!!!! I love your take on the pod racer!!!!! Looks incredible!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much, we're glad you liked it!
I love this build! "Here's to trying new things🍻".
I'm glad the voiceover is back.
Glad you like it!

How awesome ✨✨
Thank you! 🤓
Awesome diorama! Bonus points for using the wire coils to suspend the pod racer, that was genius!
Thanks for watching! We weren't sure it would work, but it's as though some mysterious force is holding it up 😉🧘
Love this build!
Aw, we appreciate that! 🤓
That looks really good and I love those new light strings!
Thank you! We have a couple of them now, so we can’t wait to see where they end up next!
Looks awesome!!
Thanks, Spencer! We had fun on this one.
