Hope u or who ever owns the sets got them on a discount or free to get so many too early in the game. And please dont stack them like that for long periods of time.

Are you sure?

Because this is the next Mars Rover. Really. You need to follow along better Greg. I'm not going to hold your hand every time.

People sure do have a lot of time

I know you guys joke about cheese slopes, but seriously, this has got to be absolutely fake. For one, outside of a few cosmetic changes, this 'fake' is almost a carbon copy of 10179. Secondly, I know Lego likes to add a bunch of smaller pieces, but there's no way they added almost 2500 pieces to basically a carbon copy...

This is neither an RI or Exo-suit. This box is much bigger. [emoji6]

Walmart has them in stock again $112.95 https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Ideas-21309-NASA-Apollo-Saturn-V/55231379

That piece in the lower left box looks wrong (appears to lack symmetry). And as if I even needed to mention it, the jpeg encoding algorithm is all over the place on this one.

Stickers confirmed:

Good to see you fixed those minifigs up

I got them for about $101 w/ tax included. "Why so many?" What are we doing here?? Is this some Sunday paper chase or are we trying to go to the throat & corner the market?? What I'm going to do with them is sell them so I can buy 1,000 The Louvre before it retires. Easiest was to flip $41k into $100k.

Unless there's a solid plan, it will be posted in "what sets will you take to the grave" thread in few years...

You get your bread at S@H and your butter everywhere else.

Official Press Release: https://ideas.lego.com/blogs/a4ae09b6-0d4c-4307-9da8-3ee9f3d368d6/post/f0c33605-faf8-4628-9d1a-643b90064bfc Pics:

As long as the item wasn't damaged and the advertised shipping service was used, I'd never leave negative feedback for that or complain to the seller.

So disappointed they aren't continuing the classic minifigure box series. Previous three were al offered as a promo in July, so I don't think we'll get one this year. They could have done a Western themed one or Adventurers or something. Or just classic Town.

Buyer beware!

Reddit is the Brian Williams of the internet.

Rumored for 2018:

Quint approves!

Seriously. I will never fathom how this is a consistent issue for a company of their size in 2017. In for 1, got my order in.

Looks like the cockpit from set 75105 was pasted over the 10179 cockpit. It does not look right. Definitely a fake.

Shop.Lego.com, thanks for reaching a new level of turrible tonight. I'm going to bed...

one of my best ebay message exchanges ever. we can't even make this stuff up. total fruitcake. happened 3 months ago. i was the buyer for a diagon alley set. - Sent by me at 7:47pm. "Hi. I just paid and did read your auction summary, A couple of missing pieces is fine. I take it that all minifigures are included? I also assume the lego retail box will mailed inside a shipping box for protection. Please let me know me know before mailing this set. Thanks," - seller's reply 11:34pm - "Dip those on some oil the shlt will get you faint" - my follow-up 12:24am- "What?" - seller's reply 6:07am - "I am so sorry for that message I was under the influence last night and I confused my eBay messages with my text messages. I would like to apologize for saying those words to you" - seller's reply 6:09am - "Yes it's all in the box and it will packaged as well" ha ha

Non English speaker, leaving positive feedback, but not quite spelling “nicely wrapped" correctly. The w and second p, make all the difference.

This is one of my favorite sets I've ever built. And I've built a few. Additionally, the display value is tops.

I bought one of these ages ago and stuck it in the loft, hoping to sell it after retirement and make a little profit. Built the new carousel (10257) this week and just had to build the Ferris Wheel as well, so out of the loft it came! I have no willpower! Both of these fantastic sets complement each other superbly. I'm looking forward to the next release in the "theme", hopefully it will be some sort of roller coaster.

Saturn V from S@H has shipped

Or RI? The presale and first few days of hype remind me of that one.

The registration for the Wonder Woman Brickheadz build thingamabobber sounds like a cluster french.

In true TLG fashion they will release young Boba holding his dad's 75107 head.

What other wisdom can you share Nostradamus?

Nice work, Fakey McFakerson. At least you spelled "Millennium" correctly.

Also available at Wal-Mart for a few dollars less... https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Ideas-21309-NASA-Apollo-Saturn-V/55231379?adid=1500000000000040972510&veh=eml

Maybe what they mean is it takes that long for paypal to approve the first linkage of paypal to bank account or credit card. Suggest telling them you will reserve the item for them till they are able to pay (max 7 days) and ask them to contact you then to go through the payment procedure. A scammer will not be that patient, unless the value is really high. You could alwasyas ask for payment by friends and family, then you are in the clear whatever happens.

This morning I almost ordered one from Amazon. I get paid tomorrow. I have the Prime Rewards Visa Card so 5% back is nice. But @Phil B is right, this likely will be available for awhile and will be discounted eventually. So for today, I will stay my hand. Plus, gotta pay off those credit cards.

my own 75192 version.

Talking about inconsistencies, the cockpit clearly was taken from another image at a different angle.

As promise, an update! So with my girlfriend we took it all appart. Some pieces are new, but not all are. some looks veeeeery old and time has work it's dark magic on those little bricks... You can see here the two bottom piece being new and the two top one being yellowed by time... Here the difference is so important, but I think those old gear are Old Light grey and not light bluish grey like the gear on the left... Here it's clearly some old grey... well, I was buying some parts anyway so Now I've sorted all the parts, I need to update my inventory on the wanted list I made on bricklink and then I'll know what remains to buy... I already bought the sticker for 45 euros, it was the cheapest listing on bricklink and the seller was only selling stickers so that was taken care of. One happy surprise is the Windscreen was in the blue box, Yay! Now I have to find a way to un-yellowed all those old pieces to see if I can give them their long forgotten smooth feeling. ?

Comparing the two 'box' shots, there are indeed some notable differences, like Manse1001 said as well: Spring-loaded shooters on the top-turret? Interesting... Any way, if it's a fake, it's the best fake I've seen so far!

There's not enough cheese slopes, so it must be a fake.

Still no rectangular radar dish tho

If that is a fake, it's a much better one.

Mastermind.ca Check it for some sales on right now including the whole brickheadz line for $5.99 each vs $12.99 reg. Many other items are $7 off which works out well for some of the lower priced items including baseplates etc. PS good on mastermind for at least getting into the game with some deals of late.

To build a bigger rocket, of course.

This set needs Scully, Yorku, Scully's catch of the day, and the Barnacle from Summer Rental.

Just finished this beauty today. I was very surprised that it took me 17 hours to build it, but it was great fun.
