dunamis Posted March 14, 2007 Ok, as promised here are the photos of the Star Wars Magnets that I picked up today at the LEGO Store in Glendale, California. Now, you must understand that magnets (or keychains) are not my deal so I really don't know if these are good or bad. Supposedly, the lady at the store told me these sell like crazy and I was the first person to buy them (they came straight from the shipping container.) She said people have been calling the store every days for a few weeks now. So, here they are. I left the resolution really high so you can see the detail. Ask your questions and I will try to answer them as best I can: Note: Boba's helmet does not come off. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
picklesdynasty Posted March 14, 2007 Wow, those are pretty cool. Is there a difference between the magnet bodies and the regular bodies. It seems to be in the legs, but does it go all the way up? Does the stormtrooper have a face or just a blank flesh head? Thats wierd. :ninja: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vader Posted March 21, 2007 What gets me is that the guards have black hands yet in the lego magazine i got the other day their clearly shown with red hands *wacko* Come on lego sort it out! Give us guards with red hands not black. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vader Posted March 21, 2007 For a massive company im really surprised these sort of mistakes happen, i would love to know how many per year are recorded. *yoda* = spammer.................. :-P X-D ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xwingyoda Posted March 21, 2007 For a massive company im really surprised these sort of mistakes happen, i would love to know how many per year are recorded. The problem mate is that this is NOT a mistake but a cost reduction !! Red hands cost more than black hands, its as crappy as that >:-( (Its the reason why Squidward and Mister Krabs have bley hands instead of their regular colour !!) That is so tireing each time... *yoda* = spammer.................. :-P X-D ;-) X-D *yoda* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norrington Posted March 23, 2007 so wait, can they be used in the same way you use regular Minifigs, i.e. do the magnets get in the way of sitting? Do the legs and arms move? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zane Posted March 23, 2007 No, they're just the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
