Today we will be analysing the set 10198 Tantive IV from 2009. The set retailed for £122.99/$149.99 and recreated the famous ship from the start of the very first Star Wars film. Lets analyse the techniques used to create the rebel blockade runner:
1. Technic - used to give the model structure and to attach engine pods by a strong connection
2. Interior - removable sections reveal space for all minifigures, and detailed with printed screens and desk made using SNOT
3. Greebling - parts such as levers and clips used on the ship's exterior to show working parts and add detail
4. Hinges - used throughout the build to create the various shapes and angles of the ship
5. Weapons - bars/rods used to show turrets
6. Engines - wheel elements and transparent yellow piece used to create circular and glowing engines
