This was my Christmas present from Samantha. I love to build Star Wars Lego sets. It gives me a sense of calm and focus and challenge that comes from most hobbies. I love to sit down with a beer or a cup of coffee and go through a few bags of the kit. However, with Covid, and it being Dry January, all I had was coffee and a lot of time on my hands. Luke's Land Speeder Master Build kit - almost 1900 pieces in 13 bags.
These models pull you in. It is hard to simply stop once you begin a bag. It is hard to stop when you know the next bag is going to give the kit more definition like a cockpit controls or engines. I started early on Saturday morning... ...and finished the main body by bedtime.The nose section was ready before breakfast the next day.The engines were done by lunch.I was done before dinner on Sunday. The kit was massive in size for a Lego set, over 19" long and 6" tall on the stand.
It was a long quarantine in the office, and I wasn't planning on building the kit now. I certainly didn't plan on doing it in about 30 hours.
My post Covid project is to find a place to display it.
