Spyder Posted August 24, 2009 I just got back from the Lego store in Downtown Disney, and they had the Republic Fighter Tank there, so I guess 7679 has made a come back everywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nadnerb112 Posted September 1, 2009 Should i get the rgs(republic gunship) or atte? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) Should i get the rgs(republic gunship) or atte? I dont think this was the right place to put it but I would go for the RGS, exclusive minifigs and a cool ship whereas the AT TE has anakin and ashoka who can be found in cheaper sets (and they arent that cool imo) On another topic Ive noticed that the chrome stormtrooper is now on backorder in New Zealand and the Tantive IV has been pushed back into late October Edited September 2, 2009 by Roncanator Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm happy I picked up 4 of the chrome stormtroopers when I did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoN2Broadway Posted September 3, 2009 I did some searching, and haven't found anything mentioned about this: For the US, according to LEGO.com - the Tantive IV will now not be available until October 23. Well, I suppose it gives more time to save, but it still is a bummer... Thought I'd share this with everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Future74 Posted September 3, 2009 @GoN2Broadway The release date for the Tantive IV shifts regularly back and forth. So there's no telling when it will be released untill it's released. Very annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Future74 Posted September 3, 2009 At least it's just the release date and not backordered. Well in the case of backorders you can order it. And most of the times it will be delivered earlier. Now it's just checking and checking again... and again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lemming Posted September 3, 2009 (edited) Daily mirror in the UK are doing the new promo sets as freebies next week: http://www.mirror.co.uk/lego/ Edit: Doh, seen the thread on it now. Still useful info incase anyone misses it. Daily Record are doing it in Scotland too: http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/lego/ Edited September 3, 2009 by lemming Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted September 3, 2009 Well in the case of backorders you can order it. And most of the times it will be delivered earlier. Now it's just checking and checking again... and again. Very true, I just remember all the trouble the 7666 set brought with being backordered, peoples orders getting cancelled yet oithers got orders the next day almost. I just appreciate that it'a at the begining of it's liffe and not the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

captainrex66 Posted September 3, 2009 For the last few months I have been checking Wall-Mart and Lego Stores for the 7678 Droid Gunship but have found none. What is happening with them ? They have been removed from Lego S@H and are not anywhere else. Did Lego discontinue them or are they just hard to find ? Could you guys give me a little help on where to find some.

JCC1004 Posted September 3, 2009 (edited) They came out last year and are discontinued. You can check Bricklink. I haven't seen it and this belongs in the Star Wars availability thread. Reason for edit: Link fixed. Edited September 3, 2009 by JCC1004 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rocky Posted September 3, 2009 (edited) Yes, that set is discountinued now. It was a exclusive so it was only availible for a short period of time. You can find quite a few of them on ebay or bricklink. On bricklink or ebay it is no more than $40.00 for a sealed one, which is pretty reasonable. I would recommend checking your local Walmarts and asking the staff to look for one in the back of the store first. Edited September 3, 2009 by Rocky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stash2Sixx Posted September 3, 2009 The 7678 Droid Gunship sold for $29.99 and went clearance just after Christmas last winter in the USA. As has been stated, they are available on Bricklink and maybe even on EBAY if you keep your eyes peeled. I am going to merge this into the "Star Wars sets anyone?" thread.

RileyC Posted September 4, 2009 Its good that the Tantive IV is now available to purchase and the chrome stormie is also available again from being on backorder. I cant wait to see a review of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted September 4, 2009 (edited) The Tantive IV is available on S@H. http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Product.aspx?...n=416&d=322 I literally just got an email from LEGO 10 mintues ago saying this is available, I was shocked since it was just slated for Oct 23rd. LEGO sure changes their mind alot. Edited September 4, 2009 by Big Cam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

382nd Legionnaire Posted September 4, 2009 Don't flame me because i did look in this thread and dint find it. I wanted to know why Lego increased the price of both the Clone Walker and the Assassin Droid speeder battle packs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted to know why Lego increased the price of both the Clone Walker and the Assassin Droid speeder battle packs. Really? What country are you from? I'm in the US. I see it's that 10.99 crap they pulled with Ambush in Cario. Is this happening to all of the 9.99 sets Here's a link. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My guess is battle packs have turned into a cash cow for LEGO and they realize 9.99 was a pretty good deal but 10.99 is still fair, which is is for the number of fig's you get. It's basic supply and demand, sucks for us, good for TLG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
