Display Stand for LEGO® Star Wars™ UCS Imperial Star Destroyer (75252)

Display Stand for Imperial Star Destroyer (75252)

Stand finally came after a long delay. I am really please with stand but yet to fit. Trying to make space. Very good quality and will look amazing when fitted.

Beautiful stand, customer liaison could improve

Wicked Bricks make the best stands, with high prices to match, but you get what you pay for. I am already the very pleased owner of WB stands for my UCS Millennium Falcon, Razor Crest and Venator, and now my Imperial Star Destroyer 75252 needed similar treatment. Purchase was simple. The web site makes it easy. There is only 1 choice for shipping to Australia, and it is expensive, but take it or leave it. Now I have to wait for it to be made, but not immediately, I go in a queue. That was in February. I started getting daily emails from WB trying to sell me stuff I didn’t want, but never a whisper about the progress of my order in their queue. About a month later I was notified that I had been allocated some points for my expensive purchase, but still no update on whether it had even begun creation. 7 weeks after they accepted my payment I contacted them for a progress update, to be responded to with a flurry of emails saying they had just sent it. FedEx acknowledged receiving it 2 days later. FedEx did their job very well. They transported my package to a regional location half way around the world in Australia in 4 days, including a weekend and a public holiday. Now to assemble it. There are no instructions with this expensive plastic bundle. The website refers you to a very rapid 2 minute YouTube clip that completely trivialises the potentially very difficult task of removing the original Lego stand. If you have built your Star Destroyer as per Lego’s instructions, removal of the 2 pins holding the stand in place near the engines is blocked as you continue to build up behind the pins. Fortunately for me I realised this as a problem as I was building the model and I reversed the pins. Other people have not been so fortunate. I fail to understand how WB could not realise this vital issue and address it in some way. For the prices being asked I don’t think it unreasonable to expect detailed instructions, at least in PDF format. The ship fits beautifully on the stand. It looks great. 5 stars for the product, WB could do better keeping their customers up to date with job progress.

Lovely

Decided after long postponing to finally get this stand, and not regretting a moment of it. Did purchase with the Venator, and by arrival they had switched the display plates, yet besides that I have no remarks whatsoever.
