Lego 10198 Tantive IV playability

[sk0rponok]

i am waiting on a reply to purchase this kit today, hopefully in an hour! w00

[ChiefTac]

On this kind of sets i always hated the crappy small engine design for the escapepods. The newer 7964 Republic Frigate design is much better!!

[gabyartes01]

i will buy it the next week, how much time did you take to ensamble it?

how much pieces have?

sorry for bad english...

[Timothy2035]

that looks extremely nice for Legos...I wonder why they didn't attempt to make this ship for the regular Star Wars action figures?! They should have. It would have sold too! :(

[IB0504]

hey, what song plays here ?

[MrMasterEric]

I really want one of these, but its too expensive for me

[be4u8me]

i like the escape pod feature!!!

[TheTester1989]

Great Set ill get it next month

[Kiwomens]

@LegoKing875 Yes, but I love both. Get one and the other if possible, they are top-notch Lego sets.

[MEKKANNOID]

@Kiwomens are the printed cockpit pieces (the top ones, with the windscreen holes in them) white? because in some photos they look grey, which doesn't look so great. Also, is it true that the windscreen holes (the clear bits) are on both the front and the back of the cockpit, ie. two clear bits on each piece? please reply ASAP because it has been offered to me cheap for a limited time and whether i buy it depends on this!

[Kiwomens]

@MEKKANNOID Hey there. There are NO stickers in this set. The two big cones in the cockpit are printed pieces, yes, but they are not the same "white" as the rest of the ship (they are slighty darker / grayer, but not much). The two big cones in the cockpit do have windscreen holes printed on the front side and back side, yes... This is an excellent set anyway, get it if you can, specially if you can get it cheaper than usual. Thanks for watching.

[MEKKANNOID]

@Kiwomens OK thanks alot!

[ryanjmn]

@LegoKing875 Thats dumb. No numbered bags?

[Kiwomens]

@ryanjmn Nope, no numbered bags here...

[ryanjmn]

@Kiwomens stupid

[ryanjmn]

@LegoKing875 awww

[ryanjmn]

@LegoKing875 definetly Tantive

[abitic7]

I am waiting for this set just as we speak...damn that USPS, and their tracking system!!

Does someone know if the pieces are sorted into numbered bags or not?

I know that some of the bigger sets do have unsorted bricks!

[Kiwomens]

@abitic7 No numbered bags, sorry.

[akimasu2]

I have it too!

[assassin34563]

you could so hide weed inside that thing hahaa

[gritynity]

coincidently the Republic Cruiser and the Tantive IV were both made by Corellian Engineering company

[360primetimejump]

should i either get the tantive iv or the star destroyer

[Kiwomens]

@360primetimejump Hard choice indeed. Both are excellent models. Very hard to choose... I might get the 6211 ISD because it is more playable (although more fragile) and has more minifigs. But try to get both, they are superb sets.

[360primetimejump]

@Kiwomens cause the thing is, i can only get 1 of them for my birthday so its such a hard decision

[Kiwomens]

@360primetimejump Yes, hard choice indeed. Look, the 6211 Imperial Star Destroyer is a set from 2006 and it's discontinued, so if you can find and buy one, DO IT as soon as possible. The Tantive IV will be selling for a long time, I guess.

[joaopedro1604]

lego Tantive IV and better than the Republic cruiser? hugs

[Kiwomens]

@joaopedro1604 I prefer the Tantive IV, although the Republic Cruiser is an excellent set too. It's one of my favourites, and I love that red colour. I will post a video of it as soon as I can.

[Kiwomens]

@joaopedro1604 Hard choice. I love the Republic Cruiser, but I love even more this Tantive IV.

[legostarwarsfreak513]

how much is this in canadian dollars?

[Kiwomens]

@legostarwarsfreak513 I don't know for sure, because sets are priced differently in different countries. Shop AT Home usually picks the country you're at automatically, and calculates prices accordingly.

[360primetimejump]

i want to buy this set but i think if i do i might build it wrong because of the amount of detail and its also very expensive

[Kiwomens]

@360primetimejump Just build it carefully and you won't have any problem. It's not difficult to build.

[joaopedro1604]

gosh man thanks for your videos, I see it all the time living in Brazil that you hugs of congratulations!

[Kiwomens]

@joaopedro1604 You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

[TheAragorn67]

great set i will buy it

[Xssam11]

If you want Princess Leia get the X-Wing set, you wont regret it. Its about 50$ U.S dollers comes with Wedge, Luke, Leia, Chewbacca, R2D2,and Han Solo. Hurry it wont be in next year or summer probably.

[Kiwomens]

Yes, the 6212 X-Wing is a great set indeed.

[stickmanpwner64]

WOW a princess leia minifig I want that set =<

[Xssam11]

If you want Princess Leia get the X-Wing set, you wont regret it. Its about 50$ U.S dollers comes with Wedge, Luke, Leia, Chewbacca, R2D2,and Han Solo. Hurry it wont be in next year or summer probably.

[Kiwomens]

I think both. It's a beauty of a set, pretty big and detailed. It many not be the more playable set out there, but it has enough playability to satisfy anyone looking for a Lego Tantive IV. The UCS model is bigger, but it doesn't have interior and the design is clunkier in some areas.

[Kiwomens]

Not really... it doesn't have a corridor, like in the movie, but oh well... Also the engines should be red/orange, instead of green (easily modified, though). It could also use one more exclusive minifig, but the minifig selection is OK with this set.

[Metroidkeeper]

is it tantive 4 or tantive iv

[cliffthelightning]

@Metroidkeeper Same IV is roman for 4

[Metroidkeeper]

hanx dude :D

[PuppyPawProductions]

Omg look at the detail on that ship!!! Wow... before I saw the video, I thought it was gonna be a waste of money, but now I want it! Lol, nice video by the way. ;D

[Kiwomens]

I highly recommend this set. It's amazing, and pretty big. You won't be dissapointed if you buy it :-) Thanks for watching!

[nixcomments]

does the cockpit have stickers or is it

printed?!?!?!?!?!?

[Kiwomens]

There are no stickers in this set. The cockpit is printed :-)

[nixcomments]

tantive looks pretty same than republic cruiser... cool!

[Kiwomens]

Of course, a tripod helps a lot. I hate fuzzy or shaky videos ;-)

[stunter200]

it is a great set but if would be better to be like the real size

[XOm3gaman1ack360X]

i was really sad about the set. it could have been bigger, with more guys and more room inside to have mim battles :<. AND THE PRICE!!!!

[vitamincity]

im getting it for christmas but dont tell my parents that i know..

[telephone33333]

im considering going to the lego store and buying red engine light pieces, other than that this set is awesome!!!!

[Kiwomens]

Yeah, I did it. Check out the photo gallery (the link is in the video's description). There are some photos with RED engine light pieces. See if you like it :-)

[telephone33333]

thanks!

[telephone33333]

my christmas present to myself

[FlashFalcon22]

Where did you get the money to purchase all these sets?

[Kiwomens]

Well, I have a job ;-)

[DukeOfGuelders]

I own this set too. What I mostly like about it, is the shape. It's not exactly minifigscale, but has the right dimensions. Something the Venator set lacks for example.

[ImTheJedi2]

i also have it now and a review on it, kowomens you are so right that this is one of the best star wars sets! :)

[Kiwomens]

Hey, I'm glad you like the Tantive IV, enjoy it :)

[ImTheJedi2]

Im bulding it right now but i have paused it is easy to build in the first book then later all yuo need is time, the engins are really long time building... But mine is done bu tommorow very nice ship, the best i have!

Go for it! :D

[CommanderSid]

waz it hard to build

[Kiwomens]

Not really. It has a pretty much SYSTEM-like building, so no complicated steps.

[Aido4258]

Where does it say this set is made?

[rabentefel]

IM schiff ist aber nicht viel platz

[crosscrutch]

which should i get for christmas this or the tantive

also which is more worth their money

[Kiwomens]

Price to pieces ratio is much better in the new Tantive IV. I recommend getting this one, although they are totally different sets. Home One is more of a playset with more exclusive minifigs than 10198.

[86GF2]

+hate when your carrying your BIG lego models and you drop them. i had my turbo tank. it fell. but good video

[ImTheJedi2]

the engins should have been red

[Kiwomens]

Yes. I have modded them, you can see some photos of the red engines in the gallery (link in the video description).

[ImTheJedi2]

1 The tantive iv (i would get) 2 The endor 3 The calamari 4 The venator

[Fikik02]

very good lego distributed this old star wars collections :) new clone wars doesnt have this something what got old star wars. Iam subscribing!

[Kiwomens]

I prefer Tantive IV over any of the other models. Battle of Endor is another "must-have" anyway, and also an excellent model. Venator is a good set, but with some flaws, and Mon Calamari Home One is a playset. It has nice features but it's pricey. If you like space ships, go for Tantive IV. If you like playsets, go for Battle of Endor or Mon Calamari Home One. You can see detailed photos of all those sets in my gallery. The link is in the video description.

[Prototypepwns1998]

true but the tantive IV is very fragile, i got the set 3 days ago but ive been pretty satisfied with it so far its the best set i have

[JediJennifer]

i just knew this set would come after i saw the red republic cruiser. they are quite similar. can't wait to build this one! thanks for showing it

[doopliss11]

Im going to ask for this for christmas. Also ill gett the battle of endor set 8038.

[angusrichard]

what is your favorite star wars set

[Kiwomens]

I love this one (the new Tantive IV), although I like a lot 6209 Slave I, 6211 ISD, 7171 Mos Espa, 10188 Death Star and 7676 Republic Gunship, among other sets...

[Prototypepwns1998]

looks awsome i ordered it today

[doopliss11]

Cool! I liked how you made the little comments. Whats your favorite part about the set?

[Kiwomens]

Well, I really love the whole set, but I like a lot the detailed turrets and the engine block. It's a beauty of a set :-)

[koolaidportal64]

that set looks amazing

you need to do more vids about it and a view of where you keep all your lego and what sets you have got

awsome vid aswell like always

[rookiecommander01]

is this review it

[goldAUsilverAG]

about how much does it weigh? I am getting this so i just want to know.

[Kiwomens]

I don't know exactly, but is pretty heavy. You can swoosh it around, though.

[originalstarwars12]

i got that, its so badass, the pieces are great. I love all the cheese

[mylegostarwars]

What are future planned(foreseen) sets?

[vitamincity]

im getin mine soon i only have 1 question is it fragile?

[Kiwomens]

No, it's actually pretty solid. It has a compact design, and it is sturdy for the most part. The only drawback is that you can only hold the ship by the lower-middle part, as shown in the video.

[Blurb808]

The engines are a pain to build

[Kiwomens]

Well, the eleven engines are not exactly equal one to another. The three middle engines are slighty different from the top left and bottom right ones, and the other six are different from the other five, fortunately.

[Blurb808]

Im talking about where the engines go in to the big blocks

[Starwars1549]

thank you for posting the pictures at brickshelf i really appriciate(srry if spelt wrong) that. it shows me what's inside the box

[Kiwomens]

You're welcome, I'm glad those pictures help!

[legomaster590]

sweet there are 2 escape pods

[Homestonearts]

Awesome this sets looks pretty nice 5/5

[Pochama21]

that thing is so cool!!! Iam getting that for Christmas.I do think it is kind of over priced cositering it and the Republic Cruser are the same size

[Kiwomens]

Yeah but the republic cruiser had only 919 pieces, and this has 1406 pieces. Anyway legos are more epensive now than it 2007, sadly.

[masterplo16]

its expensive because its a UCS set

[Kiwomens]

Well, it's officially not considered as UCS, but an "anniversary edition", so yeah, that might raise the price a bit.

[goldAUsilverAG]

yes. i have the 100 dollar star destoryer from the '07 era. It was larger that the republic deal and bucks cheaper.....

[theblacknGrey]

I am so getting this for christmas! Thanks for showing!

[TheLegoman5252]

why dont you ever talk.

[BrickB0YStudios]

soo cool i wont it too but here it will be 400 bucks thats a lot because my mum get like 600 for a month

[Bountyhunter543]

what do u like most bout this set?

[hockeyrocks8477]

this set is like the republic cruiser. NOOOOOOOO, double sided heads are making their way into star wars legos

[boenka08]

Awesome! See you tried a new background XD?

[Kiwomens]

Yeah ;-) This model is mainly white-colored, so it's better viewed against a black background :-D

[boenka08]

Neverthought of that, but it's true! :-D

[zmanlane]

awesome review

[mylegostarwars]

AWSOME I4M YOUR NUMBER ONE FAN LOL

[legoguy2894]

JEALOUS!!! AWESOME THANKS

[iPattv]
