  1. just sold my 75257 millenium falcon to buy the new small one 75375

    tho i kept the minifigs to display them with the new falcon

    I have absolutely no regrets, I have never opened the falcon to look inside and the new one seems quite detailed enough not to miss the bigger size and I am very happy to get more space for future sets

    I used to get excited when a new lego star wars set came out, but at this point, I find it boring, because its always the SAME set we got before. Heck, how many land speeders have we gotten now?!?!But its not always bad, some remakes are DESPERATELY needed haha. 

    Unless your collection is already complete, it's hard to say that the offer is fading

    moreover, new content is constantling adding up (movies, series, animations), meaning more lego sets to come.

    Maybe new sets are more kids-oriented but over time, it is quite difficult to keep up unless having a significant budget to buy collectible sets


  3. I have a friend working in the retail, his store is selling toys including Lego, told me that the UCS MF is always in top list of Lego bestselling sets.

    He recently met with the Lego representative as he receives plenty of sales calls since the end of August to prepare 2021 Xmas catalogs and anticipating 2022 sales too, he has been told that Lego has no plan to retire this set for the next 2-3 years because Disney is preparing plenty of new things and sales are doing too well to consider retiring the UCS MF among expensive sets

    Relax my dudes, it will be released when ready. I can't wait! :)

    That being said, I wish one could at least pre-order the instructions or sign up for some kind of waiting list. Don't want to miss out just by not being active here for a while.

    agreed

    still waiting in the line :) an annoucement for Xmas would be nice :)

  6. so far I have 2 x 75211 Tie fighters and one tie interceptor made from a 75211 using @mcphatty 's design for both

    and I am desperately waiting for a tie bomber to complete the collection with a consistent size scale.... Ron if you are reading this... ;) I am counting on you mate ;)

    some MOCs for the bomber are way bigger than what i would expect if the tie was standing next to my tie fighters and tie interceptor
