Review LEPIN 05062 – Imperial Star Destroyer

This is the LEPIN [] Lepin – 05062 – Imperial Star Destroyer Real Reviews from our lovely customer nickname Lucas Klug at Germany.

As already announced, here is the review of the little brother of the ISD.

Ordered the small ISD at “Holiday Friend Store”, thanks to the 15 € new customer voucher for 60 € incl. DHL Express. Delivery time from order to the front door 4 days (!)

The number of parts as usual in a shipping bag

As already announced in the introductory thread, there are the numbered bags for this set.

In itself, I find the bags quite well, but what bothered me personally, the bags were 6 and 9. For me, no difference to recognize.

When building, so had to be tried ;-)

Ninja to build itself. The stickers were attached to the instructions, all in a decent condition. What I did not like the stickers, the stickers are very “milky” and cheap.

Thanks to the numbered bags, the construction itself were quickly handled by hand, no annoying sorting of the individual parts. Cold start, just as you would expect from the new Le..g0 sets.

Construction section 1/10

The entire subfloor, here it already shows that the ISD is significantly smaller than the USC model.

Lepin has significantly increased the quality compared to the SSD in terms of these parts. only 1 pair is a bit loose, but in the later course not really noticeable. By contrast, the SSD on my kit had 5 pairs that were delivered incorrectly.

At the end of the second construction phase, the side scaffolding is completed.

Construction section 3/10
Construction section 3 is dedicated to the handle and the interior. What also stands out with this kit that Lepin still does not produce decent chairs.

A new problem, on the other hand, which I have not had yet, was the hubs. In all previous Lepin sets these were always compatible and had sufficient clamping force. I had to vorhergehendenise the ausgewählten here Hinzu ausgewähltenjährigenatzen, otherwise would have the altogether 12 turns knife built not in the Taschen.

All in all, many people have thought about interior design. Which does not make sense to me, where the following part belongs. According to the instructions, it should be directly below the pictured part of the technique. Just stupid that it is not possible to install the part like that.

In addition, the engines were added at the end of the third construction phase.

Phase 4/10 – Control Center

Construction section 5/10 wing 1/2
The size of the ISD is once again pushed with the wing elements.

Construction section 6/10 wings 2/2
Well, what should I say? I had to look at the bags to build sections 6 and 9 for a few minutes until I knew which bag 6 is now. Ultimately, it was relatively easy because the parts have repeated for the wings.

The absolute highlight, in my opinion, is the rotary guns, which can be moved by mechanism all at once :D

Construction section 10/10
The finished command unit. In the end, only put on top of the handle.

Review LEPIN 05062 - Imperial Star Destroyer

All in all, the construction cost me just under 3 hours for the small ISD. Some things are repeated in the course of the tutorial, but not as bad as many other kits. The outer shell can be opened completely so that a recording without problems is possible.

At least during construction, I did not find any missing parts, it was just the right number of parts in the package + a small number of small parts that serve as a replacement. At least quality assurance has increased a lot here. What is still a big problem with Lepin … The figures. From the pressure ok, but the clamping force is a disaster. The torso holds only conditionally on the legs and the head … well, does not hold anywhere on the torso.

In sum, it was fun to build the kit. But you have to say, for regular around 75, are about 1359 parts but quite expensive. Otherwise, I can only say, clear buy recommendation.

PS. I’ve already set it and modified the ISD a bit. The small engines of ISD USC are used here.

The comparison between ISD and ISD USC is as soon as the big brother has been set up ;-)
