If these Lego designers won yearly awards, this model would win it all. Great job!

The UCS R2-D2, set 10225 is now on sale at lego's website This is one of best of the UCS Star Wars sets I have encountered, if not one of the best Lego sets I have ever seen.

Check out the Lego video!

As an investment, this set will no doubt kick @$$! I can't wait to buy one...or two... ;-)

THANKS!

I am so looking forward to buying this set although it is a little expensive.

I ordered this set on the May the 4th promotion and just got around to building it. I can say it is an impressive set, looks great and displays very well. Even non SW LEGO fans are buying this set and it should be a good investment down the road.

You know it's going to be a successful set when even non-Star Wars fans buy one. LOL

Very true, the word "iconic" gets used quite a bit these days for some rather mundane things, but in this instance it is 100% appropriate as virtually everyone knows, recognizes, and likes R2D2!

I have the TARGET R2-D2 DISPLAY and loved the Lego replica that was its centerpiece. I always wondered why Lego never made a R2-D2 model. Now I'm upset that my R2-D2 display piece will lose value because every Tom, **** and Harry will have one. ;-(

Might breakdown and buy 2 of these. I usually just buy one star wars set and put it together but this set might be worth keeping one in it package.

Great deal!! Check out Walmart.com right now, they have tons of awesome deals, Modulars (GE, PS, and FB) for around $120, Town Hall for $160, SSD for $335, Maersk Train for $100, and R2-D2 is $151 also........there are tons of deals check it out!

When I was at a Lego store in 8/2012 I saw this set for the 1st time and I thought it was pretty awesome. I've been surprised that I haven't seen it discussed more. I am interested in what the Brickpicker community thinks of this set for investment. Any reason to think it would be a boom? A bust? Thoughts?

Love the set. Really a piece of well engineered LEGO bricks. As with any UCS set, it will get love after it goes EOL.

StarWars UCS sets are the Gold Standard here on Brickpicker.

Well if your lookin for fools gold here, your in the wrong place! Believe me two bills might seem like a lot, (Who am I kidding of course it's a lot of money!) but when this set goes EOL, your money will double!!

I seem to remember reading somewhere after the original Star Wars that Lucas was surprised that C3-PO and R2-D2 were the leaders in terms of merchandise sales. My feeling is that will we will see the same type of love for this set.

I missed it when the set was under $140 in 12/2012--I won't miss it next time!!

New sets = no investment love. Close to EOL = tons of love. That's how it goes.

Got it. I sat on the sidlines too long with the Imperial Shuttle and paid the price (pun intended) for doing that. Don't want that to happen again.

I really like this set as far as a display set. I feel like star wars theme ships are a dime a dozen. Myself and everyone else has a ton of ships so sets like this are especially nice. It is especially hard to find UCS sets that are not ships. This is one of my favorites.

It really definitely be a great set to get, even better if you can get it on sale....once it does go EOL, look for this set to start making big increases... It's just a fantastic set in my opinion

I got 2, I hope to get more.
