Review: Display Stand for 75292 The Razor Crest - Wicked Brick
Posted by CapnRex101,
Wicked Brick has produced wonderful acrylic display stands for various LEGO sets, including 75292 The Razor Crest. This vessel is definitely worthy of display so should look impressive on Wicked Brick's dedicated stand.
The complete display stand assembly comprises eight components which slot together firmly, ensuring that they will not become detached accidentally. I like the contrast between the black and transparent acrylic and each panel is covered with protective film to lessen the chances of damage during transportation. Moreover, the stand is securely packaged in a padded envelope.
Five characters accompany the Razor Crest and they can be displayed on a separate stand. Several 1x1 round plates are embedded within the acrylic so these minifigures are properly secured, although an extraneous stud remains visible because the Child only requires one.
Each component features intricate engraving around the edge and this display plaque appears particularly attractive, displaying the set number and piece count between the Razor Crest, Din Djarin and the Child. The display stand is available without this plaque and the minifigure stand but I think they look fantastic together.
Flying models frequently appear even more appealing when elevated and that is certainly true for 75292 The Razor Crest. Wicked Brick has chosen a complementary angle for this vehicle, clearly displaying the mechanical detail across the top and conveying a sense of movement.
The vessel connects to eight 1x1 round plates which are divided between two supports. The resulting structure feels perfectly secure, particularly since these supports extend around the side of the Razor Crest and cradle the model. I am not entirely certain whether supplementary supports were necessary but they certainly provide additional security since the display angle of thirty degrees is quite dramatic!
Overall
I was very impressed with Wicked Brick's display stand for 75192 Millennium Falcon and this example is excellent too. 75292 The Razor Crest looks superb under any circumstances but I think it appears notably dynamic when elevated and angled, as demonstrated here. The stand costs £19.99, with the accompanying minifigure display base, which feels reasonable given its superb quality.
Wicked Brick is based in the UK and shipping within the British Isles is therefore comparatively inexpensive, costing £4.95 for this display stand. International shipping is available as well, via DHL.

Does anyone else feel like wicked bricks' stands are a bit too all over the place? There's two many multi-axis angles to make a shelf full of them look good, it's all ships flying all over the shop.
I much preferred laserlabs, you get either a pitch, yaw or roll angle and that's enough.
I want it
I love this new mandolorian sets, they look so cool, I bought my first double brickhead yesterday the child n the mandolin too, ace
Not something I'd get, but if anyone is bothered by the odd stud for the child, just use a 1x2 jumper.
I have ordered and received it a few days ago. As usual with Wicked Bricks display solutions, I can only congratulate and admire the quality of manufacturing and final result. Perspex is absolutely transclear, assembling is easy but sturdy, and the set is eventually displayed on a position that really enhances its own beauty and quality. The foot print of the base surprised me a bit, larger than I expected and so requiring more space on the shelf than I had anticipated. But overall, whether they are cases, stands or any of their products, and even if sometimes shipping costs are more expensive than the item itself, I have never regretted any of my purchase at Wicked Bricks. Take care also while moving the set when it's on the stand: due to the angle and only 2x4 studs connected, it can sometimes easily detach and might fall off it. And my own experience learned me to wear latex or cloth gloves while assembling the stands or cases, to avoid finger prints wich always appear, even with super cleaned hands!

I love playing the mandolin. Lol. I actually did record a music video of me playing mandolin in a Mandalorian costume.
Bought it yesterday...and now I’m waiting ??. For us in Austria it’s time to bye something in Great Britain, next year we’ll pay taxes??.
Does the Child have a hover bucket and does said hover bucket fit on the two pegs?
I’ve never bought one of these because of my US location. I just ordered the RC and it’s en route. I may seriously reconsider and pay the shipping to try out one of their products. That looks fantastic all racked up like that.
The only thing I’d ever suggest is that perhaps some bases could have two purchasing options. One with studs that echo LEGO stud bases and those like they have here. As I look at the display the only teeny weeny thing that I think of is maybe that down the line it might be fun to build some set type things on to the base.
That’s an entirely different kind of product so don’t get me wrong I’m not criticizing what they have going I dig what they have. I only think that there may be a possibility of a happy marriage between the cool factor of the floating ship, the UCS type figurative layout combined with architectural or landscape elements that the builder could customize (though that can certainly happen in any event by just building around it).
Thanks for the review! I just bought the Razor Crest so I am interested. It would be great to also see a review of the display stand for the UCS MF 75192 (which I own but haven't built yet)

Did Laserlabs go out of business? They used to only sell via their eBay store, but now they are nowhere to be found [at least in the US]. :(

I also bought Laserlabs (when they were were still in business) and I am extremely satisfied. I just wish I bought more stands from them. Does anyone know of an alternative to simple plain stands like those from Laserlabs (different heights and sizes of base plates)?

"I do quite like it and it certainly displays the ship very well, but the plaque ruins it for my. I can just about understand having the set number but only alongside the name of the set. And the number of pieces seems completely pointless.
I know they wouldn't be allowed to use the Lego logo but surely they can include The Razor Crest on the plaque."
Totally agree - says it comes with or without the plaque so I’d skip it x
DHL shipping to my location is 2.5 times the cost of the stand itself. Bah! Those rates are atrocious.
They are cool, but I prefer the stands made with Lego bricks. Everything pure Lego.
very cool wicked brick
