SirNadroj Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 I don't know if there is already a topic like this, but I'll share this Tie Crawler find with you anyways. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=267739 New minifigures look great! If there is a topic on this already, you can close it. Quote
Bionic-Sun Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 Wah-hey! Someone has the TIE Crawler. It looks good, and the tracks flip round! But where does the other Shadow trooper figure go? Also, it advertises the whole wave 1 2007 LSW range. Was this meant to come out earlier? Still, good model though, with rear-end kicking figs! Quote
mutley777 Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 I like the black hole troopers but i still don't like the set. I will only get 1 of these, but might try to get some more B/H stormies on BL. :-) Quote
SirNadroj Posted July 27, 2007 Author Posted July 27, 2007 The only reason I would buy this is for the figs. The actual set doesn't appeal to me, though. Quote
Doctor Sinister Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I'm definitely getting my hands on this as soon as I can. Dr. S. Quote
Grand Moff Viceroy Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 (edited) Excelllent! great find! I always though that lego masde an error turning those treads upside down but noticed that it works both ways. I love everything except the cannon, (TLC:It's a laser cannon, not a rocket!) . Inever knew that they could be flipped, but what is the point of those? I love the blackhole troopers. Thanks for alerting us, we'll have to track down that person and inquisite him *vader* The bottom cannon is retractable too. Wah-hey! Someone has the TIE Crawler. It looks good, and the tracks flip round! But where does the other Shadow trooper figure go? Also, it advertises the whole wave 1 2007 LSW range. Was this meant to come out earlier? Still, good model though, with rear-end kicking figs! It is like both tie fighters, the additional stormtrooper and the lightup vader. Edited July 28, 2007 by Grand Moff Viceroy Quote
Piranha Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Would anyone like it better if they used grey instead of blue?? I know I would ;-) Piranha Quote
Darth Andrew Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Those troopers are godly. *wub* And the Crawler is nice too. :-P Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Many tks for the great find SirNadroj ;-) I really like this set !! Sure all those blue parts really piss me off but its nothing a *yoda* can't change :-D I was really happy to see the parts inventory so I have a view of all what I need to modify (and that is a lot of parts, especially for 3 sets >:-( ) Black Trooper On !! *yoda* Quote
aayla-secura Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Mhmm , if can i will buy it at monday and then i possibly could make a review ;) Quote
Lt. Col. Thok Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Wowsers!! Those dark troopers look awesome! Silver and black ON! The set itself is awesome too. Quote
Piranha Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 *wub* Those Shadow Troopers are just awesome maybe my Favorite SW ever I am defiantly gonna buy this one Let it be known that the first EU sets were in the TIE family I wish August 1st would come faster :-D Piranha Quote
Asuka Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 August 1?Where do you live? That Tie Crawler set arrived already at my Vienna TRU, aayla.... and that Skelly Ship too.... Quote
SirNadroj Posted July 29, 2007 Author Posted July 29, 2007 I don't know why lego releases things earlier in some countires but not others, it doesn't seem fair. But I can wait, since my local TRU had most of the new sets. They only had 1 JSF left. I didn't buy it! :'-( :-( Quote

SirNadroj Posted July 29, 2007 Author Posted July 29, 2007 You out 'Tie crawlered' me! :-D Great find! *y* Quote
Piranha Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 I live at Worlds End, so Lego takes a while to get here When Lego says August 1st that when we get them ;-) Thanks for the pic review Piranha Quote
Siegfried Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 He guys i foung better pics... at brickshelf , liek a pic reviiew! Indeed you have. Thanks! *sweet* I might have to get this after all; since I missed the Crawler Crane :'-( and will probably miss the overpriced $120 Battank, I still am in the market for some tracks... Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 and will probably miss the overpriced $120 Battank, I still am in the market for some tracks... Que ?? The Bat Tank set is 49.99$ on SAH *yoda* Quote
Siegfried Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Que ??The Bat Tank set is 49.99$ on SAH *yoda* Sorry I should have clarified. I am Australian. 50 USD but 120 AUD. Since the exchange rate is about 0.85 not 0.42 this is a complete rip off for Australians. I even wrote to Lego about it and I posted their reply here. Quote

My bad I forgot that ;-) Yeay thats not good pricing at all >:-( *yoda* Quote
Joebot Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 I realize the TIE Crawler is from the Expanded Universe, but does anyone know specifically where it's from? Like from a novel, video game, comic, Lucasfilm-branded shampoo, etc.? I'm just curious. What a goofy looking ship. Those Imperial weapon designers seem fixated on the whole "central sphere with two symmetrical appendages" concept of ship design. Also, does anyone else giggle when they read the phrase "blackhole trooper?" It sounds kinda dirty. Is it just me? It's just me, isn't it? Quote
