GNC? I was actually a little saddened by Jon and Sansa's behaviors. He's never lot control like that before, has he? And I think Sansa has spent WAY too much time around absolutely nasty people: Cersei, Littlefinger, Ramsay, etc

Had it in my hands. Put it back on the shelf and got the Heavy Lift Helicopter instead. Maybe later.

A girl is Arya Stark of Winterfell, and I'm going home.

I actually AM a student... I think as an engineering major, I have LESS time than someone with a regular job, what with 20+ hours of homework in a regular week.

I didn't really think it was the first, but rather was trying to figure out how rare it is to get two SW females in a set. Since it's only occurred 5 times in the two hundred-odd sets over 17 years, it is very rare indeed. Putting together the 75150 is what got me wondering about it.

Should make it so 1st place gets to choose. I already have NYC, but not the new Burj.

Bounty Hunter Assault Gunship: Aurra Sing and Sugi According to bricklink, Ahsoka and Ventress were never in a set together, and same for Barris and Luminara. Jabba's Palace: Oola and Boussh (has Leia's head) Imperial Troop Transport: Female resistance trooper and Captain Phasma (has plain black head) No wonder I couldn't think of any. Leia's masked, Phasma doesn't have a face, and 7930 was a loooong time ago. Not that Aurra Sing and Sugi are particularly memorable, either. Well, There's finally a fourth. Two female faces and no masks this time, too.

This is AMAZING. Do you have a CAT A that goes with it?

Vader's TIE vs A-Wing

Kman needs to get out of the SW area a bit more often. I haven't been able to see many of the leaked images. What/how many figs are in the AT-ST?

Has there ever been a LEGO Star Wars set with 2 female minifigs before 75150?

Suspended? Able to turn separately? Because an articulated tracked vehicle, where the tracks bend with the rest of the vehicle in a turn isn't possible with LEGO, nor in real life.

Those videos are pretty bad. I typically like the Dick Dale/Carnival of the Animals version, but really couldn't hear it in any of those. The replacement track installed during the 2003-2005 refurbishment was my 801st coaster, and I preferred that version until I rode the Hong Kong one with its standard soundtrack several years later.

Absolutely no way Osha would have gone out like a punk like that. Boo!

Ahsoka's saber blades look different in the box image than the other. They look... Almost white? Against the darker background on the box, they are lighter than Ezra's, but against the white background they are darker... Somethings not right. Looks like plenty of room for an interior, so that could be nice. The scale seems much smaller than previous capital ships... And out of scale with those, too. I very much recognize it for the right ship, so it's not bad by any stretch. The front guns are NOT flick-fires. They seem to involve 4L axles and have a connector on the back end. I think there's a carry handle, but it seems way too far forward to be balanced. When the Gozanti-class first leaked, everyone thought it incredibly strange that a ship with only a few seconds screen time got a set, then the type got a large amount of plot time after. I wonder if this could happen again? Phoenix squadron has met up with other cells a couple times, was there only the one Pelta-class? Kallus is an odd choice. He's the first Rebels Imperial in three sets, but he makes less sense in this set than almost anyone else we've actually gotten. Seventh Sister, as much as I wanted to see her, would have been an odd choice, too, but certainly more desirable than another Kallus. I guess that since her role is over, but his isn't, he is a better decision for long term play value. Almost any Imperial would have seemed out of place, unless I'm forgetting one having been a captive at some point? I think 2x4 is more likely, since the angle isn't 45-degrees.

When it was originally posted that Ahsoka was the main selling point of the set, I just figured she was in a smallish set without a whole lot else of interest... But what if the original remark was biased? There are a lot of SW fans that don't like Rebels, or even anything outside the OT. There are a lot of SW fans that obsess over the Imperial faction and could care less about the Alliance. What if the person who made the remark fit one or both of these? If the set is Rebels based, and/or contains few or no Imperials of interest to THEM, they might have said that she's the main selling point based on what they expect other people to like, filtered through their own bias. A small Alliance capital ship based on Rebels with nothing but a Stormtrooper from the other side could certainly make Ahsoka the main selling point to that person. If Rebels ends with the crew of the Ghost on Alderaan waiting for the arrival/return of Leia Organa from her "diplomatic mission", that would be 1: incredibly sad, 2: tie up all loose ends from the show, 3: be incredibly lazy.

1) Good lord, it's been years... I think I signed up online when first prompted, and again in-store when asked. Later, I merged the accounts in-store, if I recall correctly. 2) The benefit i tend to use most is amassing VIP points from buying small sets to bring down the cost of large ones to palatable levels. Most VIP benefits and events seem to be geared towards kids, which makes sense... 3) It doesn't. VIP early release is generally useless for me, as I get paid monthly. VIP generally seems to be independent of themes. 4) The current events adults would be interested are secretive. This is frustrating because it suggests that VIPs aren't that important, but some secret mystery group is. We know that special limited invitation-only events occur, but we have zero clue what it takes to get an invite. This is frustrating to me. Transparency on this process would go a long way for me. 5) As it exists now, the VIP program doesn't make me feel very important. It takes zero effort to be a member, thus has virtually no actual exclusivity, and that means everyone is treated the same... Unless you get that secret invite. LEGO treats its customers great, but being a VIP has little meaning from my perspective.

I find it interesting that GRRM and the showrunners have devoted so much time and pages to the goings-on in Dorne. I can't see how they fit into the expected endgame.

Ser Davos has such a good heart to him, I can't help but think he'll die soon. I mean, that's what happens to likable characters on GoT! How long will his criminal past protect him? lol

Battle of Takodana, Ghost Microfighter, Rebels Battlepack and the free FO Stormie Which brought my VIP Point balance over 2500.
