Q&A
Q. What was the arrival process like?
A. The arrival process was pretty straightforward. The vendor shipped the set in a giant, well-wrapped box with several smaller sub-boxes inside. The spiral-bound set of instructions was also included in the package. However, the box was quite heavy, delicate, and seemed to wobble for at least five minutes after being put down.
Q. What was the unboxing process like?
A. Unboxing the LEGO Death Star was both exciting and nerve-wracking. The sub-boxes seemed to contain different parts of the set, making it feel like a scavenger hunt. The hardest part was identifying which box contained which part as they were not labeled.
Q. How were the delicate and heavy parts handled?
A. The delicate and heavy parts needed a great deal of care while handling. The box wobbled a lot; we felt like we were walking on eggshells. The parts were also wrapped in large amounts of bubble wrap, which added to the weight of the whole set.
Q. What was the unboxing experience like?
A. The unboxing experience was unique compared to other LEGO sets we had unboxed before. We felt like we were a part of something significant, owning a piece of LEGO history. The prospect of assembling the set was overwhelming yet satisfying.
Q. What was the final outcome?
A. The final outcome was incredibly satisfying. After assembling the set, it was impressive to see how all the sub-boxes we had received came together to create the giant LEGO Death Star. It was even more satisfying to know that we owned a part of LEGO history that was now out of print.
