Finished Mirko's U-Wing. I think this rivals the Nebulon.

This showed up today.

love bb8 set. the head rotation and the little arm coming out are smooth and fun. didnt actually get to build it as son would not allow me to. he was cool with me paying for it though.

New trailer for season 4. Some pretty cool storylines, characters and vehicles are shown/ mentioned.

Better use em before you lose em.

Topps card - note the sunken X-Wing

Leicester sq opening at midnight on launch day and Hans will be signing copies of the Falcon. So do I make the wife think I'm having an affair or getting the Falcon. I don't know which would be worse. :-)

Sure, just pulled them out of my car.

Black VIP card is a joke. Free vip set with $125 purchase on the other hand....they'll get my $

I've already three of those from recent launch and Guard with Stormtrooper with pauldron are the best. I very much like the way Lego managed to work with gravity to put some weight on the plasticy pauldron to simulate this part as more like "flex accessory" rather than "fixed part". It's wobbling when you move him plus helmet is fantastic and much better shaped than those from TFA which are tad too narrow. So as far as I can tell Praetorian 75529>Stormtrooper 75531>Stormtrooper Pilot 75526 Chewie and Rey are out of my radar since I consider them as hideous.

Down to 34 sellers as well. Should hit close to $400 on Amazon by Christmas I would bet.

It´s not retired - yet. This is what TLG do when they have a sale and run out of stock to stop people backordering them indefinitely at the low price. If you remember, the flyer said limited quantities available.

I picked up a 30182 Santa Claus polybag. I was an ones I couldn't afford the postage on a couple of 1970's sets so I bought this instead along with a few other little sets [emoji23]

Just weird that there are only 14 sellers on Amazon, and the buy price could jump to $160 if the $119 seller sells out. I'm sure volume is low. On eBay they are going for $80-ish still. Basically I'm bored and looking around at sets in my office. :-)

Hey ...anyone catch that Easter egg in the interior? looks like it's the "blast shield" helmet luke uses to train with. its on the floor next to the haloChess game table:) i like!???

I recall last year and correct me if I'm wrong but the sandcrawler sold out and everyone panicked and went out and bought out walmart. Set came back full force a week later as I recall amd slowly crawled to retirement about 8 months later.

Walked into walmar t at 8:00 this morning, no tlj sets except the scout and the small resistance one. So I went over to the mall. Bought a plush porg from Disney store and got the free posters. Then I went to stand in line for the Lego store to open. Was the first to grab BB-8. I got a stormtrooper, poster, cavemen and some other polybags that has how to form letters. I took that to the car, came back, got the small resistance ship, a couple fo battle packs, and all the promos again. Then I went to tru, and picked up the city advent calendar to get the r3 and also got 2 posters.

My force Friday haul.

With the tears of those who never find deals like this?

I paid $50 for all Winter Village 10229 90% sealed bags Monsters Castle Ghost Train Holiday Train 2006 Airport Police Station At a glance so far.

I think with the UCS Snowspeeder and UCS MF that pretty much says the Tie and AOH are goners. No way do they take out the Slave 1 just yet.

You can win an Escape the Slug set over at brickset.com ... they're running a sweepstakes the next few weeks.

smart choice, 18 month run time might even make the haters forget they hate it.

Assault on Hoth is Sold Out on Lego.com.... I hadn't bought this one yet, so just grabbed it off Amazon... Traditonally if they discount it on a force friday or may the 4th sale, it tends to be on the retirement chopping block, so i'm going to assume this one could be potentially retired soon.

2283 Lego hero factory witch doctor. £10 in local charity shop. Instructions, box and looks full set of pieces - happy with this find. Passed on Lego technic jet plane 9394 for £15.

Saw Y-Wings for $42 in-store. Can probably push that down to 40-50% off before points.

Looks like the stormtrooper is no longer available at LEGO Shop at Home. Getting Yularen added now. Might have to hit up ebay for one.

IMO this set is great for Lego fans who want to build this mammoth set, but it is yet another blow to the foundation of Lego investing. I hope the modulars, which are not great investments anymore, again IMO, will not suffer the same fate. Yes, it is different and more detailed, but it is still a remake. This has a cascading effect on all Lego sets and hurts the entire market. There is no reason to buy the retired set because you can wait a few years and there will be another one and even when this does not materialize the thought is still there keeping people from pulling the trigger. Yes, I know not many people are patient enough to wait 8 years, but then again, people's patience can increase as the price raises like it did for the old UCS MF.

Ships within 30 days of payment.@Kenxxx will get a kick out of that seller.

Hey look! You can pick up the new MF for $1700 + on eBay! http://m.ebay.com/itm/Lego-UCS-Millennium-Falcon-75192-Preorder-Presale-Plus-Bonus-Sealed-Star-Wars-/322702223125?hash=item4b228d2715%3Ag%3ADsQAAOSwhzJZqGRs&_trkparms=pageci%3Ad42269e9-8fe4-11e7-9b81-74dbd180a564%7Cparentrq%3A42d5d39e15e0ab1997592b19fff7891d%7Ciid%3A7 . What a winner!

If you get a signed copy it could go towards paying for another regular one to build.

Yeah I've noticed the same thing with the main listings for Grand Emporium and Jabba's Palace, both of which I have some FBA inventory in.

wow, that's a well... very high entry level for this bonus VIP set. They wan't to MILK VIP's as much as possible?

I hit my local Lego store to pick up a set for my kid and to check out the MF display. Gotta say it's pretty slick and the exterior detail is well done. Side note, if a 1x5 is hovering around the display, a great ice breaker is to bring up the cost of that beast. And before you know it, you're having a geeked out conversation with someone waaaay out of your league. True story.

Better spend em before they end em

75153 AT-ST sold out. https://shop.lego.com/en-US/AT-ST-Walker-75153

Oh lord, I thought that was the B-Wing?

ditto. perfect box condition is over-rated anyway.

"Missing sticker" "lost manual" "few pieces fell off" (let me guess, the expensive ones) "missing two figs" ..... this thing screams BrickLinked, no matter that they claim "authentic bought in the store".

Shameless expoitation?

Ok Greg this ones For You buddy? ???

The game isn't over, it just isn't much fun - especially since fewer seem interested in playing.
