I want the outside to be split into 2 different scales, the front with the main laser at "real scale" with a smooth looking spherical surface which would be the "true display" side.
Then you turn it around and you have a side that's much more gribbled as if it's more of a close up with playable microscale tie fighters, xwings, falcon, turrets on the surface and the trench with the weak spot Luke shoots into. That side also has a large opening to an interior room separate from the rest that's also at microscale which would be the hangar the falcon lands into with those square formations of stormtroopers represented by tons of printed white ministatues a la harry potter microscale castle.
Then you can open the whole thing for the minifig scale interior which essentially would be pic related but better. Fuck the Death Star 2, please don't waste space with the emperor room or whatever. Just beef up all the areas that are significant to the first film and make sure they are playable. Needs a proper detention block corridor not just a forced perspective sticker. Dianoga shouldn't be this fully separate made up fig, we shouldn't see its fully body but instead have a technic play feature mechanism you activate to make the eye go up and down and move the tentacle.

If they did it just like that then maybe I would buy it but I'm of course I'm preparing myself up for extreme disappointment

The $1000 Death Star is the same as pic related but covered so it looks 100% accurate
