Guest eightbrick Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Nice vid. That's one big instruction booklet. I'd like to make a stop-motion video of a build sometime, it would be similar to this to a degree, but you wouldn't see the human putting it together, just the pieces going together quickly until completed. Check out Artifex on youtube. Great stopmotion-ish animations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramp Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I see a number of 10221 Super Star Destroyers online (second hand, but NMIB) for around 325,- Would you guys think that's worth the investment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnation666 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I don't see what you are talking about, even used SSDs go for 300+. Buy a new one from Lego. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Super-Star-Destroyer-10221?ShipTo=US&_requestid=1151658 You get double VIP points, which equates to $40 off. You also get a holiday set and Clone Trooper, which are probably worth $20-$30 in the aftermarket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramp Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 You're a lucky US user. We are EU and official price on the SSD is Euro 399,- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernard74 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 If you are looking to buy more than one: you could check out Toysxl. They are currently holding a 3 for 2 sale. Their price for the SSd is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramp Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 @Bernard: Thanks, might buy another 3 if those are available. I've bought 5 of them when they came out (fullprice, meh... didn't know about BP yet) But my single UCS Millenium Falcon and many other single old UCS models make up for the investment I did when building up a UCS investment starting from the SSD. Now I just have to wait until those sealed extra's become valuable enough to sell them and cover the models I like to keep for myself.

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 So I am going to write a blog about the Super Star Destroyer (and build it). Wanted to get some info for it. If you pick one that has more than one number, specify the number in your post. Also feel free to give your opinions on its growth including its plateau price. I have 1 at the moment, but I am building it. Want to have 2 sealed by years end when it is speculated to be gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 This is one set I haven't committed to buying yet. I need to make up my mind. To me its expensive, but its a must have. Every set this expensive has doubled, tripled in value - plus its an amazing set and you will feel real dumb if it does well and you could just open ti if it doesn't. Lol At least the above is my thought on it. Why I am making the purchase of another today during double VIP. No he can live on a full Lego life size model of it. I was literally about to type that. great minds think alike. Except I don't have 10 SSD's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of he most iconic ships from the entire Star Wars universe. It's huge and the box is huge, that's probably what intimidates me the most about this set. I always talk myself into getting another 2 Haunted Houses, 3 more VW Campers, or 2 more Tower Bridges, instead of just committing to one or two SSDs. I need to jump on double-VIP and snag a couple, decisions decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 It's a big bugger and certainly my heaviest box. Amazon have boxed it nicely with loose-fill ready for resale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like this will be solid just because it is so expensive, investors have to make these decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
