We had double points back in March.

A few pages back the price of $500 was quoted, not sure accurate it will be though.

The trailer is due for release tonight, whether it's the same one they saw at Celebration or a different one isn't known.

Probably has a lot to do with a certain film out the end of this year which plot revolves around a certain moon sized space station.

Not sure if posted already but just spotted this on Amazon... https://www.amazon.co.uk/LEGO-75157-Captain-Construction-Multi-Colour/dp/B01AC1DWQ0/ref=sr_1_78?srs=3799315031&ie=UTF8&qid=1462011912&sr=8-78&keywords=Star+Wars Looks like the new sets are definitely due June 1st at least here in the UK.

This week I got a 10174 AT-ST and 75059 Sandcrawler.

UCS Snowspeeder next then apparently the Death Star which I have a feeling will be a Jan 1st 2017 release.

I started collecting UCS sets last April and the retired SSD was my first purchase, paid £510 for it which is a crazy amount but had to have it lol and since then have purchased several other retired sets including the Imperial Shuttle (£380) and while I would love the Falcon and Star Destroyer they are just too expensive so would love for them to be re-released but I am not holding my breath.

Went a bit crazy and got... 75049: Snowspeeder 75054: AT-AT 10225: UCS R2-D2 10227: UCS B-Wing 10236: Ewok Village

I have a feeling this set will replace Ewok Village and the next UCS set due later in the year will replace the Sandcrawler which is why I plan on making it my next purchase when the double VIP promo starts next month (hopefully)

When exactly are these new sets due? as I do like the look of the Resistance X-Wing and Darth Vader TIE/A-Wing set and was hoping they might be out near by birthday which is April 30th.

The 'giant cannon that shoots through the blockade' is the ion cannon and it is included just scaled down.

The press release makes no mention of it being part of the UCS line, sure this will fall in the same category as the Death Star and Ewok Village of a costly play set.

Got a brand new sealed 75105 Millennium Falcon for £100, quite happy with that.

It's also going to cover events between Episodes 6 and 7.

Ghostbusters HQ isn't a UCS set though.

I had told myself I was only going to collect the UCS sets but was out Saturday and saw these in the flesh which peaked my interest then while browsing the net that evening I saw a local store had an offer on (spend £50 and get £5 voucher / spend £100 and get £10 voucher) so I figured out I could buy 4 sets in different combinations and save £25 off the last one so 30 minutes before they closed I decided to go for it and got the lot so they were very much on bought on impulse. Only problem now is I need the Falcon which is proving hard to track down.

Impulse purchase yesterday...

Some sections needs parts not contained within the numbered bags though, that is where a bit of confusion can arise.

Thought I had a piece missing but turns out it was in an unnumbered bag I had misplaced when unpacking.

Started my set last night and there was no cardboard backing with the instruction manual. Curious how the bags were contained inside your set as mine had two white boxes (one held 1-3 the other 4-7) and the rest of the bags were loose.

Ghostbusters Firehouse has arrived :) They also included a free Admiral Yularen minifig.

Tracking info was updating today saying my parcel is at my local depot so I expect delivery later today or tomorrow, feel bad for those that ordered at the same time yet are still sat in the warehouse. Update: Just received a text message saying my set is out for delivery today :)

I ordered mine just after midnight and received a shipping email for it on Monday but the tracking info hasn't been updated since then so not sure if it has actually been shipped.

I thought the rumoured new Death Star set is what some believe might actually be Starkiller Base not that they are releasing both.
