Classic Space version of Star Wars Resistance Troop Transporter 75140
Hewman replied to whitswj's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Absolutely brilliant. I'd buy it in a heartbeat. How many pieces is it? -
Absolutely stunning. Thanks for sharing.I love the retro look.
-
Multiple polybags have been available before, one generic one for purchases over $X and another dependent on what is purchased, ie a particular set or something from a particular theme. I still have some hope that Mr Freeze will be available at some stage with the batcave.
-
I think it's a chance, Her A-wing looks different enough and TFA released two X-WIngs not too far apart. I was hoping her A-Wing was with Vader's Tie as I like her blue one much more but it wasn't to be.
-
That looks great. Did you need extra pieces to do it?
-
Harry Potter Weasley twins earlier, maybe others.
-
I'll be shocked if there aren't Bruce and Dick figures. Surely a bat pole transformation feature will be in the set. I still think someone like Mr Freeze is a candidate for a polybag with purchase of the set for a limited period.
-
That Mr Freeze looks great and is a pleasant surprise (even if it's just a polybag when purchasing the Batcave). I was only expecting Catwoman, RIddler, Joker and Penguin. I reckon it's a reasonable assumption that we'll get Bruce and Dick minifigs as well so it's pretty easy to get up to 8 plus figs.
-
The piece in the new batmobile set? instead of a spring it uses a rubber band which doesn't seem as durable.
-
I don't think so, the Rancor Pit was actually released after Jabba's Palace so it was clear what it was designed for. To me the freezing chamber makes a Cloud CIty set in the near future less likely as it should be one of the most important features of such a set.
-
For build experience definitely the PR. After I finished the Simpsons House I was a little disappointed and will happily sell it off when I can get my money back on it.
-
I have a completely made up theory as to why we haven't seen the designer video. The columns in the set were originally tan like in a couple of the pics. This was still the case when the video was filmed. Then when they realised how much better white looked they changed the official set design. So now we're either waiting on a new video to be made or we won't get one. I think the Kingdoms joust set was the last time a shop at home exclusive didn't get a video.

I believe it's $60. -
That's great news. I was a little disappointed at the news of a US$120 set but still would have bought it anyway. As long as this set is reasonably accurate and captures the silliness of the 60s Batman I'm sure I'll love it. I'm hoping for a Dick Grayson and bat poles. I wonder if they'll make batman's pole thicker than Robin's like they did in the show.

The Emerald Express is a tiny creator train, not to be confused with the Emerald Night. I think there was a similar holiday train in 2012. Edit: http://brickset.com/sets/40034-1/Christmas-Train

$79.95 for those in the US according to bn.com.

They have been reported to be from smallest to largest set: $20, $40, $50, $80 and $110. The mansion seems relatively cheap if that price is accurate but the bi-plane is a terrible price at $40. -
For those that are a bit slow like me and took ages to find what you meant I'll paste it here: This (70224 a Chima set) and the Exo Suit are actually the only sets I designed in 2013/14. I had a bit a turbulent time in my personal life so they put me on forward planning, wait until you see the sets I can add next January! In the meantime I'm pretty happy with this set, it looks like a tiger but it's quite close to a space set in the way I choose to make stuff happen. Hoping someone does a modified classic space version of this (if not I might have to)!

Works online already and you can do a little better than 25% off on some sale sets but shipping kills it. If you buy two of the same set on sale you get one for discount price and 50% off RRP for the other. -

Yes there will be. I received the email. I think it was from the 22nd. -

Talk is Big W will get the Helicarrier and seeing Myer have Slave 1 and Detective's Office, I'm going to guess that Target will get the Tumbler. -

I picked up one as a gift at a newsagent in the city (Adelaide). Apparently they're all sorts of places including Woolworths. -
Yes. 100%. Although it might be best to call ahead to see that they still have stock. I purchased mine in Adelaide last week.
-
It's available at Myer and currently 20% off, so only $32. you can also get Black Manta set, there or Target for 20% off right now.

It's probably been mentioned before but I just noticed Scooby's goggles in the plane set, very cute.
