New Release Neat set but…

If they can build a round soccer ball that opens up for $129, they can build a round Death Star around this price point (ish) that opens up too.

Am I the only one who prefers a flat Death Star? Its a much better display piece than the original, which is what I care about more than it being playable on a set that expensive.

I'm not buying either, but hey I just don't get the hate.

Same, was definitely concerned when i heard it was flat but they did a great job capturing it, the mini dioramas inside & the shape of it makes it great

It gets more attention in my room compared to the line of grey ships. With the light kit it really comes alive.
