What's your recent LEGO Star Wars Purchase?

[tormentalous]

I recently got the new X-wing and the Tantive IV.

[Gory51]

Just got 9495 Gold leaders Y Wing and love it

Also got the 8099 Midi-scale Star Destroyer. Both sit on a tower on opposite ends of my desk

Ok, not quite exactly what I bought, but what I for a heck of a big surprise, received...

Monday just gone, I went round to my mums, and there was a present on the floor for me. Its not my birthday or anything, she just bought me a surprise present.

I opened it, and it was the 7964 Republic Frigate! I was totally stoked!

Anyways not wanting her to feel left out and me take it away to my girlfriends to build it, I decided to build it at Mums another day when I was free so she could see the excitement and joy she had brought to me.

So today was that day, and I got to building it. Then half way through the build, there was a knock on the front door. I opened the door and on the floor was a BIIIG present on the floor with a note on it saying 'may the 4th be with you' (I know, a little early)... I was shocked. Surely it couldn't be Lego, at this size? It could only be one of 2 sets... The Deathstar or the SSD... and I hadn't done anything great to receive such a huge gift!

I brought it in, opened it in awe, and low and behold!

It was the 10188 Deathstar!

Oh My God!

I still have no idea what is going on, but I am one VERY lucky person at this moment, money is tight and I had written this set off as being unobtainable! Just wow!

I could swear I'm in a daydream!

Apparantly, at the time this got delivered to Mums front door, she was out and it got left with the neighbours... the 2 little children who live there saw the Lego logo on the parcel and thought it was for them, they were hugely disappointed when they found out it wasn't

Just recently bought the new Droid Escape and the DK Lego Star Wars Minifigure Encyclopedia. I'm very pleased with both of them.

Good for you. You have a great mom.

Bought the new Tie-Fighter the other day :)

This goes really well with the new Y-Wing I have

And found 2 second hand Midi MTT's in a pile of old lego I bought from a mother selling her kids old toys :)

[Vindicare]

Fuppylodders, you are quite lucky my friend. I practically have to threaten my parents for them to buy me LEGO, let alone $$ the DS is.

3 more Battle for Naboo sets.

Now holding out til the 4th for the UCS R2 and the SSD

[dr_spock]

A couple 8084 Snowtrooper Battle Packs to give my 4483 AT-AT some company.

[Gory51]

Ok Went out and found 7931 the T-6 Jedi Shuttle at Toys-R-Us today. :)

[moop]

Found a brand new 8015 Assassin's Droid Battle Pack set at a Salvation Army today for $1.19. Even better? It was during a 50% off sale so walked out thee door paying .60 cents for it. Time to bulk up the inhabitants on my Death Star by a bit more.

While not a purchase per se, I got a Shadow ARF at this Lego con thing over by where I lived. Since I doubt I'll ever use it, I'm not sure what to do with it. :/

[The Kid]

Built my recently acquired 8038 Battle of Endor today - found sitting atop a John Lewis shelf at Westfield Stratford; a set I'd long thought discontinued (and thus I'd missed out on). Pleasantly surprised by the size of the AT-ST, and the whole setup looks great

Not sure why Han has pupils where none of the other figures do though...

I was finally able to get away from my busy schedule and pick up the SW sets that I ordered through K-Mart.

9492 Tie Fighter @ 28.74 x2

9493 X-Wing @ 32.49 x2

7930 Bounty Hunter Gunship @ 18.99 x2

[madoka]

Got 42 more battle packs. Should have been more patient and waited for May. But I did receive a discount on them ranging from 20-30%.

How did you manage that? That's an impressive sale!

About a month ago, K-Mart had a BOGO 1/2 off sale. If your order totaled over $125.00 and you used your VISA card, you saved an additional $25.00. Luckily they used the total before the discount. I threw in a couple planet sets and battle packs to fill in my orders. I got pretty lucky as the sets were sold out online but I was able to use the Mygofer option where I could pick the items up in store.

Debating on a new set to buy for May the 4th which would be better the Imperial Shuttle, I plan on motorizing the wings, or the New R2D2?

As a playability fan I personally would have the Shuttle as it is a beautiful set that certanly looks grand on display. although if you want a model that will sit ok a desk or shelf all its life then get the R2 as it looks like a nice display peice.

[mutley777]

3 9488 Elite Clone & Commando Droid BP

3 9491 Geonosian Cannon

Couldn't decide whether to buy 7965 Millennium Falcon or the old 7190. So I bought both via eBay/Bricklink! Combined about £140. I await in anticipation for their arrivals! Strangely I'm looking forward to the original version more My brother has the UCS but I'm afraid that's now out of my league so I thought, why not get two?

[Gokey]

MISB 10030.

Couldn't be more excited!

[TheDarkness]
