I purchased the Death Star through Joybricks and was really looking forward to building it. While the build process itself was okay, the overall experience was deeply disappointing due to severe quality control issues.
Unfortunately, an entire bag was missing from my order (Bag No. 63.1). On top of that, there were an enormous number of missing pieces throughout—we are easily talking about over 30 missing parts! These included critical long elements such as 1x16s, 2x14s, and many more. Having to source and replace all of these missing parts at my own expense was extremely frustrating.
To make matters worse, the minifigures were also incomplete. The two minifigures that were supposed to be included at the end according to the instructions were completely missing from the package.
I find this very unfortunate and disappointing. Having this many missing parts and an entire missing bag in a single set is simply unacceptable. I hope you will take action to make this right and send me the missing minifigures as soon as possible.

9023 pcs Death Star (updated version)

My son had a fun time building it, but it required many trips to Bricks and Minifigs to find pieces that were missing to continue the set.

1/3 through building and no missing pieces. Only difference you’ll have from buying actual LEGO is the quality in minifigs, but for 1/4 of the price it’s worth it.

Sets came well packed and clearly labeled. I am halfway through the deathstar build and its going great. Not 1 missing piece so far and I I expect the rest of the build to go GREAT.. Thank You for the great set at an affordable price.. quality is top notch as well...
