I don't know if I was dreaming or what but I could have sworn I saw a post where someone preordered a UCS falcon for a May the 4th celebration this year. I searched everywhere (here, shopathome) and came up with nothing though.

I don't know if its me personally but I find the ring binder intruction booklets tackey I would prefer mutiple booklets or one big one done like the GBHQ's booklet.

From a secret source I heard something about UCS Cloud City.... (with a launch pad for the existing Falcon?)

Man, I hope that happens one day.  If not this year, then maybe next?  A UCS Cloud City has always been at the top of my wish list with the UCS AT-AT.

Shewie is there a launch pad?

I'm looking to hire someone to build it for me.  I just don't have the time or energy to do it.  ?

This sounds like a school project for all of your fundraising efforts.

Speaking of that, the new Falcon will make a great prize for this year's raffle!

Tops on my list.

This made me laugh. Very good!

 

True if spoken from the perspective of a reseller. Fortunately for those trying to make money in the resale game, people actually collect LEGO sets. I think the essence of [mention=38015]KShine[/mention]'s point is that continued remakes do seem to devalue the product as a collector's item.

I'm a collector, this set has been hanging around the £5K mark for ages.

You snooze you lose.

DS has 290 pages A4 format vs circa 490 pages teased by Lego recently.

It should be a hardcover for $800!

Lol @ "secret sources".

I am a rock....I am an Island....

wow that is old...

Great show though...Ive been thinking about all the Lego signs about the new falcon, would be hilarious if they lift a falcon shaped sheet of a brand new set and reveal the new UCS JarJar bust.

There are plenty of skeptics still out there, amazingly. 

And today's release, while further confirming what we already knew, is a let down compared to past weeks.
