How much (US please) did this ship sell for?

Thanks for the pics DoubleT! I can't wait for us to get the police items in. We now have the BNSF train (that I have been waiting on forever), but I really want the police sets. *satis*. My only complaint for 05 is more regular ties *devil* ;)

Money is the reason why I have yet to build a SC or SB custom. To do it right will cost a ton of money and time searching for parts on brickbay. :'(

Every single time I have to work extra hours and don't get a chance to post, something cool happens. Last time pics for most of the new 05 sets were posted, now this. I just have to say that I love this new set. Any idea about the price?

LOL |-D |-D :D Getting ready to start throwing ties again...

Your welcome Vader. The Toys R Us story has been big here in the US. Every major paper has been keeping up with the "Fall of TRU". If they do close it will be a sad day around the world.

LOL! Yeah, when you steal from me, you are always going to be stealing twice! ;) :P

NOOOOOOO!!!!!! Why must you be such a cruel "Megablock"! :'( :P

From what I understand if Toys R Us decides to close its toy operation, it will be worldwide. I have the same problem here in the US with our Wal-Marts. They just have a few sets. Toys R Us always has a bunch to choose from. I have not heard of them doing this yet for this time around. If I hear anything I will let you know.

Apo, when you finish smiley pack two let me know. I will be sure to post them ASAP to my BS gallery and take full credit for them. Sound good? Well I'm off to FBTB to see what Gareth has to offer my BS gallery... ;) :P

What are you talking about Vader? I love ties, esp. the standard tie fighter. I really want 600 more re-released sets with this tie. |-/ :P

Hey Lego, use this code <%if picfieldname = "" then%> <img src="nopic.jpg%> <%else%> <%picfieldname%> <%End If%> They need this to fix the problem of the red x when a photo is not available

How sadly true :'(

They may close the toy division to focus on Babies R Us or they may sell it. Everything is going to depend on this holiday season. If they do well this season they may keep both but split them so they don't have to share profits. If they do bad (and you can pretty much count on it) they will sell or close the toy division. If this happens Wal-Mart will rule the toy world with an iron fist and Lego will continue to sink.

Your welcome! :) Yeah, crib here refers to the baby bed. What I would call your diorama here is a Manger or Manger Scene. Crib has been used here for the past few years as slang for house or apartment. Example... You want to go back to my crib? :D ;)

I would love to have a kit fisto fig. *wub*

It would be nice to have the three pack minifig sets again.

hmm, thanks for the info Vader. If anyone as any articles about this please send them my way. *satis*

Wow Apo, that looks GREAT!!! :oD When you said crib, I thought you were talking about a full-size baby crib. :D

I think Lego will do very well next year with the new sets. I'm not sure it will be enough to pull them out of the slump they are in, but it will be a much better year. Lego needs to step it up and offer more exclusive sets to Target. Target is more upscale over Wal-mart as Lego is to Megablocks. Here in the US Target has really helped Lego gain some speed on Megablocks. The fight in Wal-Mart stores is much different. Megablocks sell two to one over Lego at Wal-Mart stores. I think Lego took a wrong move in catering so much to Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart has made Lego a discount toy. This goes against Lego's history. Lego is a premium toy of the best quality.

You can bet that the new sets with light-up figs will be at least $5 more. Even if the price is still the same as others, the price vs. pieces will come into play. :/ :P

Mace Windu is Samuel L Jacksons character in the new episodes. Check out these pics.

Thanks for the link Vader. Why does Lego not have a patent on the bricks. I know they have one on the locking system, but look at all the parts on the batmobile. This thing is a total Lego rip-off.

Hey!!! :P ;)

Ha ha ha, you are really building a Lego crib? :P
