3. Subtract the total number of pieces in the UCS Snowspeeder sets from the set numbers of the UCS Snowspeeder sets.
4. Jedi Bob is exclusive to what set?
5. One SW minifigure has a head that is used exclusively for only one character in the SW line, but is also exclusively used for one
   character in one other theme. Name the two characters that share this head.
6. This human scale replica of a LEGO SW set holds the world record for largest LEGO set in the world.
   What set number is it, and how many bricks were used in it's construction?

20 minutes starts now, at 20 minutes past the hour.  You have until 40 minutes past the hour to answer these.  Most correct, then fastest time.  You are playing within your group to advance to the next round.

Those are good, I'm out.

I'm humbled!  I poured over a lot of material.  Tried to find easy and hard questions, but stuff that wasn't impossible.  Also wanted you to have to use your 20 minutes.

Clarifying question: For 3., when you say "pieces", do you include or exclude minifigs? Is it the box count or the BL count?

In case I advance, is round 2 also delayed?

You're not gonna win with this attitude  

Since we backed up the first round 15 minutes, any chance we can do the same for rounds 2 and 3? I gotta pick up my daughter from school at 3.

Pieces as described on the front of the box.

Search within.

ANSWERS

1. Brown

Any answer of Brown (including Dark Brown) is fine.  Blue is no longer the color.  LEGO admitted they made a mistake years ago when they colored him blue originally.  Lucasfilm recognizes it as brown.

     2. 17

    3. Set #10129 + Set #75144 = 85,273
        1457 pieces +1703 pieces = 3160
        85,273-3160 = 82,113

Sorry for the word problem, but you've got to group it together.  Total pieces in the sets is 3160.  Total of the set numbers is 85,273.  Subtract the total pieces (3160) from the set numbers (85,273) and you get 82,113.

     4. 7163 Republic Gunship

     5. Count Dooku and Saruman

Christopher Lee plays both characters.  The minifigure head is only used by two characters in LEGO - Count Dooku and Saruman.

     6. 9493; 5,335,220 pieces

This is the X-Wing that was on display in Times Square and at Legoland California.
