  • Hanging is by far the best way to display it.  It has a hollow core, so we used a small piece of wood painted black with an eye bolt and picture hanging wire.  That way its supported from the bottom.

  • I think this pretty much sums it up. A five year old boy (my son) watching Star Wars for the first time ever. The Death Star is... fascinating.  When it is gone (whenever, if ever, that finally happe

I also bought myself some. Think the 10% below retail is a great opportunity

i mentioned this on an another thread. DS in demand right now and its no BS. Raising the RRP of the new one was the biggest favour TLG did us, in context. I have sold all mie bar one for above original RRP and well above buy-in.

Some brave souls who are willing to stake it out will make good money buying cheap amid the panic and holding as there will always be people that want the 1st iteration.

Those buyers will be few and far between I would think, and there's going to be a lot of 10188's knocking around at 400-450 for a couple of years yet.

The good news is that most everyone (even me) is looking to get out of this (often, regardless of profit) - so at some point at least, the patient (or maybe stupid) will have far less competition.

Even though there is certainly a significant limitation for the 10188 - There is still meat on the bone (if the purchase price is right).

I agree, DS looks like a blue chip stock when compared to AA or a lot of other investment turds.

well my son and I just finished an epic part out of 6 death stars.  Put over 5k in our brick link store.  Average death star part out was about $800 so not too bad.  A lot of great pieces and figs.

5k as in $5k worth? I assume pieces-wise you're talking more about 25k-30k pieces :). Congrats!

Ya it was $5200ish for dollars and the piece count was right around 22k.  it was the biggest part out to date for us.  Paid my son $200 for his help.  Took us about 10 hours total I would say.  Very proud of him!!  ( proud papa moment)

I have succesfully sold all my 10 pieces for around EUR 400. Fortunatelly I have bought all around 336 and hold them for 1-3 years. So very small profit covering the inflation. But I dont want to see this s**t anymore... Lot of stress, lot of storage place, binding lot of money, and without interesting profit effect... The worst investition ever...

The sad thing is that EV and SC may struggle to give even that ROI.
