  1. I thought this was a $40 set... isnt Rey's Speeder $20?
  2. That's a great MOC. Also feels like a plausible VII update. TFA Spoilers!! One of my gripes with the new trilogy is the lack of starfighter variety. Doesn't make much sense that the Resistance only used X-Wings for what was basically a bombing run... no B or Y Wings in sight.
  3. This set is a huge ripoff and it's very clear Lego rushed the design.
  4. I bought the Millenium Falcon today :) With tax it costs $200 CAD XD
  5. I wonder why they chose to resdesign an already sticker heavy set... with EVEN MORE stickers. Get the Anakin version while you still can.
  6. I'm buying Carbon Freezing Chamber just for Boba Fett. I don't typically buy playsets nor do I like them, but I don't want to pay $200.00 for a UCS set.
  7. This set has grown on me, at first I was disappointed with the value. But after awhile you forget about the price and enjoy it for what it is... a really well designed set. The only mods i made to it were adding black 1x1 slopes near the spokes to help reduce the studded look.
  8. Just wondering, is the below the entire 2016 Winter Wave, or will there be another wave in the winter specifically The Force Awakens? Seems like a lost opportunity, if Lego has to wait till the Spring/Summer to release the second wave of TFA sets.
  9. Lol what... a UCS playset. It's going to be huge if it retails for $250.00 USD. In other news, the new TFA Stormtrooper design still hasn't grown on me, i miss the old trooper armour.
  10. Wow that's an incredible deal then, i wasnt expecting any TFA deals until a month or two after the movie. Sadly, no deals on Amazon.ca If Captain Phasma has a personal starship or vehichle... thats an automatic shoein for a more affordable way to get her.
  11. I really hope there will be cheaper way to get Captain Phasma... In terms of value and playability, this set is great and even feels like a steal compared to the other TFA sets. But utimately, it's a fairly boring ground transport that has a low chance of being as memorable as a Sandcrawler or AT-AT
  12. I wonder if Lego will maintain their overpriced markups from The Force Awaken sets ... let's hope not. Edit: Just saw the SPOILER pics Must Buy: 75133 Rebel Battle Pack - Wow look at those mini-figs! Amazing details and variety, the speeder bike looks like a small fun build too. 75137 Carbon Freezing Chamber - I'll be buying this just for Bobba Fett and Han Solo, everything else will wind up into the parts bin. On the Fence: 75134 Empire Battle Pack - Uhh what's with the Stormtrooper that looks like he/she smeared lipstick over his suit, If I buy, it'll only be for the two classic Stormtroopers 75141 Kanan's Speeder Bike - I'm not a rebels fan at all and don't follow the series... but Kanan is a neat mini-fig and the speeder bike doesn't look too terrible. Not thrilled that the piece count is inflated with a bunch of mini-fig guns though. Not Buying: 75135 Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter - Anakin's Jedi Starfighter is one of my favourite sets... but I don't need another ETA starfighter (even though maroon is a nice colour). Also looks sticker heavy. 75138 Hoth Attack - I like the set, but I don't have any room for playsets... would fit really well with my Snowspeeder though. 75142 Homing Spider Droid - Oh god Lego is still releasing poorly designed prequel droids 75140 (Unnamed) - Force Awakens!!! Not the biggest fan of the ship design, basically a fat B-Wing without folding s-foils. Also looks incredibly sticker heavy.
  13. Looking good so far, I like the inclusion of General Grievous' wheel bike. One of my favourite sets.
  14. Missing the red stripe, i think that's a defining feature of the 1st Order Tie Fighter. But overall looks great.
  15. This more of a critique on Force Awaken designs in general... but an open hatch snowspeeder is pretty silly for use on ice planets with extreme weather conditions. Almost as illogical as making a Tie Fighter seat two pilots (double the amount of pilot casualties).
  16. Looks good, I liked that you removed the Bionicle gear from the top of the ship... that always looked out of place to me.
  17. Looks great, but can easily tell this will have serious stability issues.
  18. Wow this is incredible... instructions please! Where do you get those curved pieces that form the back of the TIe Advanced?
  19. 8/10 Set for me, I love it... except the sticker sheet which there is a lot for such a small set. I don't buy the increase in production cost, as the set is already marked up higher than normal and their making increased margins on the sale of these Force Awaken sets.
  20. This looks great... I wish I had the pieces to complete this mod on my Tie Prototype XD
  21. Are there closeups somewhere in this topic?... XD what page?
  22. Definitely getting the Skull Archer (Warrior?) for the blended Kopaka mask and Masker Maker vs. Skull Grinder for the Mask of Creation. Wish the Summer 2015 wave was larger, as it's going to be awhile till 2016...
  23. Anyone know how much Mask Maker vs. Skull Grinder will retail for ($30.00 USD)?
