Snazzy Bricks Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 Just picked up the new AT-AT, and I was going to get the 20th Anniversary Snowspeeder from Amazon to go with it, but it's selling for $90. Ebay isn't much better, and Bricklink is $50. Any idea why it's such an expensive set on the aftermarket? Quote
Csaba Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) Had a shelf life of around eight months so supply is very limited. https://brickset.com/sets/75259-1/Snowspeeder-–-20th-Anniversary-Edition Edited August 27, 2020 by Csaba Quote
Daddy_Stardust Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) Woah those prices are insane for a product that's been re-released with very few changes so many times. Just checked and the Sandspeeder seems to have a much lower aftermarket cost, maybe go with that as an option for now? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lego-75204-Star-Wars-Sandspeeder-Complete-Boxed-with-Mini-Figures Edited August 27, 2020 by Daddy_Stardust Quote
Snazzy Bricks Posted August 27, 2020 Author Posted August 27, 2020 Not sure about the sandspeeder. I was hoping to get the new one and Bricklink the sticker sheet for Assault on Hoth, to make the orange-painted version. Bricklink has the 2014 snowspeeder for $36 w/ $5 shipping, that could be an option Quote
Csaba Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 You can get the parts list here. I've had a play around importing it into BrickLink. Looks like you can get all of the pieces excluding the minifigs for around £22 + P&P, which is less than the original sale price. That could be reduced further by removing Lando's 20th Anniversary stand and the gun tower. Quote
Snazzy Bricks Posted August 27, 2020 Author Posted August 27, 2020 thanks, I might do that instead Quote

I'd go for the 2014 snowspeeder, there have been very few changes between that and the 20th one. @Csaba's suggestion should work too, especially since you said you were planning on putting the assault on hoth stickers on it, which means you don't need to get the 20th set's stickers.

Snazzy Bricks Posted August 27, 2020 Author Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) I probably will. I have 1 copy of the 2014 one, but it seems a bit outmatched against the AT-AT. I like it well enough, and especially considering the few changes that have happened in 6 years it's probably the best option. Thanks guys! big help deciding Edited August 28, 2020 by Snazzy Bricks typo Quote
