darkrebellion Posted November 19, 2008 Wel that prices look right to me Dark Brickz, thanks for the info . The only prices taht seem overpriced to me are that ones of the Hyena and the TIE, c´ mon TLC they don´t value that . Also no "new" minifigs in the Hyena and the TIE so why the increase of the price?

The battlepacks and the AAT seem too expensive. Well the AAT does have 7 minifigs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The RAS's price is good and believable in this list, hopefully it will stay at that price. The AAT is a bit more expensive that I would like it to be, but not too bad. Hyena... meh, I'm still nit sure o this one, but the TIE looks reasonably priced (c'mon, chrome!). Ashoka's starfighter is the equivalent to the N-1 Naboo fighter, IMO, so a fair price. I wonder why the BPs are $12 now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reason is the new mold for the clone trooper helmets and the ainmated style. TLC had to build new machines to for all the which cost them alot of money so they have to charge alil more for the quailty that they are giving us. I think its a rip off but i gotta have them all..

Matteo Kenobi Posted November 19, 2008 Well those prices stink I was hoping for things a bit cheapter but I guess not. So the Bps are $12 not just at TRU but everywhere, NOOO!!! That is really dissapointing $2 might not seem like much but it adds up, everything else I suppose is expceted, except I would think Vaders tie would be $20 but I guess not. Well Thanks for the prices anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, but this year they gave us the TOTALLY new Rebel Trooper that also owns an all new helmet and they are only $9.99 battlepacks that contain them .

True but remember the "Economy" back then wasn't so bad when they released them new rebel troopers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkrebellion Posted November 19, 2008 True Dark Brickz . Also, anyone know anything about the 10 anniversary exclusive? Yes, the one that TLC asked us what we want some time ago´, I am not talking about the TRU exclusive or the new TIE Advanced . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pr0visorak Posted November 19, 2008 You are right about that Darkbrckz but they only need to make new molds! Not machines and each mold only cost $2000 dollars to make. With the amount of lego they sell around the world the price shouldn't increase that much! Even during bad times, they should make it cheaper! Anyway, thanks for the updates! Wow! 11..99 for a battle pack! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Navy Trooper Fenson Posted November 19, 2008 yeah here's the price's for you guys and i do hope he gave me the right prices cause if he didnt im going to get a baseball bat and beat him down....RAS $59.99 usd ATT $49.99 usd Hyena Driod Bomber $29.99 usd Vader's Tie Fighter $29.99 usd Ahsoka's Starfighter $29.99 usd Battle Pack's $11.99 usd Finally the USA gets a price increase and nearly every set has the same price numbers like in Europe. It's AAT. The battlepacks and the AAT seem too expensive. Well the AAT does have 7 minifigs. Well, the AAT has just 2 REAL minifigs, Yoda and the clone trooper. Droids are cheaper in production than normal minifigs, because they need no assembly for the arms and legs and they havn´t any prints. So they are just a few more bricks.

KimT Posted November 19, 2008 Nononono. Let's not turn this into a price difference discussion again. There's a topic for that in either the Ambassadors' forum or LEGO News & General discussion. I can't remember since I don't really care about that discussion anymore. Thanks for finding the prices for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trooperdavinfelth Posted November 19, 2008 So we have to pay a few more dollars! Come now, have you no poetry, my European friend? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Crazy One Posted November 19, 2008 I found piece counts and short (kinda messed up) descriptions for some of the new sets:" " " " " LEGO 8037 Star Wars Y-Wing Fighter Awesome figures!Big guns!From The Clone Wars on TV, this thrilling vehicle takes the classic ship and shows the world the original version! Fully armored and loaded with gun pods and more, this amazing ship is sure to strike fear in the heart of anyone going up against it. [Category: Construction Toys] " " " " " I'm worried about this, because the CW y-wings are really smooth and rounded unlike the OT ones so it might look off proportion. ( the "s were put in by me to save space ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Navy Trooper Fenson Posted November 19, 2008 Thanks a lot. Hope that makes you feel better. No, I was just surprised because this is the first time that the USA gets a general increase. But sorry that I started it again. So we have to pay a few more dollars! Come now, have you no poetry, my European friend?

KyoKyo Posted November 19, 2008 No, I was just surprised because this is the first time that the USA gets a general increase. But sorry that I started it again.Do I have to answer that question because I don´t know what you mean?^^ Since I'm an unsophisticated American barbarian I don't know what he means.... I'm a little worried about the Venator Star Destroyer Set. It's not that big. I beleive the Trade Federation MTT has more pieces than the Venator is supposed to have. I hope it's not made up of a bunch of huge plate pieces like the Imperial Star Destroyer was. I think the Venator is at or under 1,100 peices. It has the potential to be a great set but I honestly hope Lego doesn't make it combersome to build or move like the original destroyer. I also hope they give us ample clone troopers and maybe even speciality minifigs! (ARC Troopers anyone? ) Only time will tell.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheBrickHitHouse Posted November 19, 2008 Sets hold promise - but i cant help but feel they are scraping the barrell I for one have been hoping for a good Corporate Alliance Tank droid for years (the 05 one sucks) ..but that is hardly a big hitting set is it?? A tiny Venator is a big let down too This year we had the Death Star for cripes sake, and a good AT-TE and Gunship - people had been after those for years Nothing really compares in the '09 range Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
