Do you guys think that Lego would be making more specials like this? Maybe its just one set but doing a 50 percent discount from Lego itself for a big set sounds kind of crazy.

Half off a UCS set is practically unheard of, at least to me it is. Like you said, that high of a discount by the company is odd but would be great if it did happen more often.

All these questions are cracking me up.........this is BP not S@H so anyone's guess is as good as the next persons ;)

From my perspective its just a marketing thing for Star Wars items.

May the 4th be with you......May the Force be with you

May is basically Star Wars month, so I give my friends crap who were married in May and therefore always have to juggle their anniversary with all the Star Wars events. It has interfered with Star Wars Celebration countless times, until they started having them in Orlando in August. Yes, most of the Star Wars releases were in May, including the original.

Obviously we can only speculate behind why it's discounted that much but if you just read the reviews for it on their own website it starts making a lot of sense. You have to imagine Lego takes negative feedback on their own site seriously.

I will be very surprised if they allow people to purchase more than one. I hope so, but for some reason, i just can't see it happening.

Yeah, 1 would probably make it more fair for all. I can accept that.

+ 1, I definitely agree, one is plenty for this kind of sale.

Well a lot of guys here have more experience in this, in my case I'm just a newbie, so imo this speculations could be accurate .

Well you did go to ASU

Go Wildcats!

Damn straight.

Huh, now that's interesting; "Star Wars Day".

Heh heh, I can imagine this being the month to give crap to all the Trekkies out there. Ha ha ha!

You're not kidding about the negative feedback. Even the more 'positive' ones talk about how the model falls apart for no reason. Sheesh.

Oh, and I just noticed your new mini Android avatar, Celes.

It's just so cute!

YES! I cannot wait! I guess the rumors were true...

Yeah. Too bad for those of us that want more than 1 Han Solo it's not gonna happen. Just spoke with 2 managers and they both said it's 1 per customer. Doesn't matter how many transaction you do, it'll be 1 PER CUSTOMER. GRRRRR!!!!

With all this B Wing talk, and rightly so, is anyone going to pickup the X Wing or is it too early and pricey to bother with the new entry into the UCS line? Go in, get the B Wing and poly and get out?

I'm gonna manage to get more than one... ^

Me too. I'm taking everyone to go order one!!

Go in, get the B Wing and poly and get out?

That'd be my strategy. The new UCS X-Wing just came out so there will be ample time later on to buy that and by then hopefully some decent discounts too.

Online or in the store?

In store they're only giving each customer 1. As far as online goes I'm not sure. But if they have 1 per customer in store, I'm assuming they'll do the same or if you order multiple they might cancel your order.

I guess now is the time to start being really nice to your mom/dad, wife, girlfriend etc to come along with you to make a separate transaction! lol

Yup dragging a few people..I'm gonna feel bad though if I have me plus three people and they only have 12 left at my nearest store.. 0=)

Thanks Orc for the nudge, was getting confused. Now, do you think I can put $110 in my 7 year old's hand and they will do a separate transaction? Maybe play the ol' this is his first May the 4th...

Giving your son money should work perfectly... Lego does try to remember that its first a foremost a kids toy ;)

It better update at twelve >_

It better update at twelve >_<
