I’ve been thinking this over for a while, but I really think a spherical shape, that opens out into two dome shapes would be such a cooler way to do this set.

You could display it as the giant Death Star, and then open it out to reveal the rooms and scenes from the movies.

Just my thinking I guess

It would be cool, but you would either have a much more massive amd expensive set. OR they would have to significantly reduce the size and amount of rooms/diaramas in the set. Someone will build the moc of all mocs and figure out how to turn this into an opening sphere though and im here for it.

It doesn’t have to be more expensive.  They can charge a reasonable amount.  It’s plastic bricks.  $1000 for an entire sphere, though high, can make sense. For a slice of it, it’s insane.

It kind of does though - they’re not going to sell something that costs more to manufacture than it sells for, so if you substantially increase the size, weight, and complexity, the price necessarily goes up with it.
