The Ewok village came with almost 2000 pieces in 15 (or so) bags and documented in 3 (or 4?) instruction booklets.
First thing we did was put the packages in order.
Aaaaand the build begins. Here are the first three pieces that were built.
The far end is one of the speeder bikes that comes with the kit. The other two nearest to the camera are from previous sets that my friend "modified".
One of the cool pieces that is part of this set is this working catapult.
Wicket standing at the top of the first tree trunk that was built.
The first section that we completed. I am always amazed at how innovative Lego is when creating these sets.
This is the building of the floor of the ewok village. Notice the black round piece on the top of the supporting tree trunk. That allows you to spin the upper part of the tree when it is attached.
It is Luke Skywalker with the famous green lightsaber!! He claims he is a Jedi Knight now.
Luke modified his lightsaber and is causing trouble to the troopers below.
Getting closer to being finished! Check out Leia hanging out there.
Chewie, always thinking with his stomach, gets caught in one of the ewok's traps.
A trooper testing out the build quality on the bridge.
The completed set with the extra speeders thrown in for looks. Luke and Leia seem to be discussing something important. Maybe he is telling her that they are related and they shouldn't have kissed in the previous movies.
