Ravi Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) BTW, I just picked up 6 BP's. I'm surprised how much I like the new ATAT pilot - very nice! Although I'm a bit annoyed about the varying uniforms of the Hoth Rebels, they're good too. A bargain at $18ea I really like the ATAT Pilot too and at $18 they are a great buy. I got 10 of each of the bp's and 10 green men and now trying to get rid of them without the figs. Has anyone seen any of the new technic sets yet?

Why do you need that many? It's just hoth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone seen any of the new technic sets yet? Wow I think you would get more money just selling the pieces on bricklink that the whole set without the minifigs. Good luck though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just hoth Im not keeping all the figures I am selling a hoth and the set to break even and keeping 3 figures and once they sell will buy some more .I have got quite a few cloneless clone walkers to get rid of too. Building a small army Wow I think you would get more money just selling the pieces on bricklink that the whole set without the minifigs. Good luck though I could sell on bricklink but kinda annoying parting out all the sets. Edited January 18, 2010 by Ravi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Ok I guess you are right guys, but selling a set with out 3 minifigs will be hard to sell on trademe. Im hopefully going into town tomorrow and buying the army men and the RC car. If they have the Tri fighter or the swamp speeder those will be my first priority though cause I really want them because I just got a new shelf and have more room! I dont buy more than one set just because I prefer diversity and of my tight budget but hopefully that will change in the next month or so when I hopefully will get a job at new world. I plan to buy the big sets like the death star and the USC MF before they get over priced on bricklink Edited January 18, 2010 by Roncanator Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I plan to buy the big sets like the death star and the USC MF before they get over priced on bricklink I should probably try get a job soon too.... I'm just able to get big sets/multiples because there are only a few sets around that I actully want, and I get a reasonable amount of money from my Trademe dealings. I was going to pick up a couple of Army-men BP's yesterday, before asking myself what I was doing, discovering, as cool as they look, I have no need nor use for them , So got extra BP's instead EDIT: Also, I saw the landspeeder at the Warehouse today () Can't be an exclusive after all then. I'm not complianing! P.S. It was $49.99 Edited January 19, 2010 by legoman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted January 19, 2010 I bought the army men and woody and buzz sets today. They are pretty good but they do have their cons like the wing on the RC car comes off a lot and the army men has too many accessories to put on the minifigs. I also picked up the 2010 catalogue and discovered that the Tri Fighter is coming out in February like the Swamp speeder which is really weird Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where did you get the catelog incidentally. I could use a second one. I left my first one on the far side of the Lego room . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Legoman Posted January 19, 2010 Just got out my original Arc-170, and comparing it to pics of the new one.... Far out! They really don't look that different IMO. Sure, the nose has changed, and the engines are bigger, but thats about it.... for an extra $50! That seems a tad on the expencive side IMO I've heard the new one is great, but I already have, and really love the original, which I unfortunately have no room for, let alone a new one!

AoNZ Posted January 21, 2010 Hi all, In Sydny at the moment and I can tell you that they have all the latest Star Wars excluding Land Speeder, Swamp Speeder on the shelves including the Tri Fighter. Everything here though is priced the same as in NZ and since our dollar is only at 80 cents it all works out more expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RileyC Posted January 21, 2010 I heard BigW has the ARC for $88. That sound pretty good considering its $140 here Yea that is pretty good. I still thought $140 is pretty good compared to the other prices in the wave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legoman Posted January 21, 2010 I still thought $140 is pretty good What've you been smoking Mr. Billionare? ...compared to the other prices in the wave. Phew! But its still really expencive for what you're getting IMO I'm still open to a comparison pic to convince me though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted January 21, 2010 Its a better price compared to the Tri Fighter. 168 pieces for $55! Im am soo gonna wait for a sale for that set Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Callum Posted January 21, 2010 I have for sale one of each of the new release Star Wars sets without figures if anyone wanted an extra... Will be listing on Trademe soon, but if anyone wanted to make an offer go for it. I am thinking of around 40% off retail, but make an offer. Brand new unmade still in the boxes (bags only opened to pillage the figures) Cheers! Callum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted January 22, 2010 Hey Callum, do you know what is happening with the droid Tri Fighter? It has been found in only a few stores and in the 2010 catalogue it says comes out on february but isnt it meant to come out now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats very interisting you found Lukes speeder Roncanator, im going to pick it up and the ARC in the next big sale. You guys are all very lucky getting the BPs for $18...I should have waited. I need more patience. CommanderFox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted January 22, 2010 Im pretty sure it will be in a Farmers some where. They did have quite a few out CF but that could change so if you want it I would advise to go in as soon as possible because it is a great set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
