November 8, 201411 yr Honest question for the forum... I typically grab 5-10 of sets I believe in, but am looking for one set that I go all "Ed" on and buy essentially as many I possibly can. In the 200 plus/minus "exclusive" range, is there any arguement against r2 being the set to push your chips all-in on? I am an adamant believer in the little guy... seeing this set be a perennial perforner indefinetely. Those that know more or feel differently, please shoot me down.
November 8, 201411 yr yeah, R2 is a solid build and no doubt will be a timeless piece ... wonder if Lego will replace UCS with a UCS Chopper!? that droid is nuts on Rebels ...
November 8, 201411 yr There is but one thing: The DS factor. Personally I think R2D2 will be a winner. The only question is "when". Even after its retirement there will be a lot of resellers. With the three upcoming movies and all I can see how LEGO would like to keep this one alive. So if you do have the money and the space to go all emazer/ed on this one... (see the pun? ;-) ) it's worth a try. As for me I will be a little bit (maybe too) cautious. (If it does go EOL next year BAM!)

To me, there is one "all Ed" set that is currently available and it is a set that you will never have enough of.

You don't have to say the name, but can you at least tell us if it rhymes with...Fillennium Malcon?
November 9, 201411 yr Author You don't have to say the name, but can you at least tell us if it rhymes with...Fillennium Malcon?I said "currently available." People will be doing somersaults when this set retires.
November 9, 201411 yr I said "currently available." People will be doing somersaults when this set retires. Ah, of course...the only question is, when. It...won't...die!

November 9, 201411 yr Wow. You guys are really bad at this. You missed a clue. Does it come in black? c;
November 9, 201411 yr A set you will never have enough of... It means it is hard to hoard or it is overlooked by others. The first case implies the EEE. The second could be some newer release, like HE or the Mixer (somersault = acrobats?) if it is a bad seller. Ed you should change your avatar to be a Sphinx. Honestly. It is also evil so it shouldn't be a problem. Edited November 9, 201411 yr by inversion
November 9, 201411 yr Anyone on this site more than five minutes should know better than to expect a clear answer from Ed, just pay attention to what he says and where he says it.
November 9, 201411 yr Wow. You guys are really bad at this. You missed a clue. I can't play this game without my hat...where is my f%^%^ hat???
