110 Euros... that's about $150( ). Ouch. I was thinking two-thirds of that price. Let's hope I'm able to afford it when it comes out.

I like this MOC very much. The curvature, the multiple heavy-duty tracks, the Russian decals, and the use of an Exo-Force Code-tile as an identification panel (Is someone watching me?) all adds up to an epic MOC. It even leaves the Snow Groomer in the dust.

I like this set very much. I missed out on last year's Helicopter (sadly ), and this seems like an adept replacement. I hear that there were some helicopters with tilting rotors before, but I am okay with this not having that function. However, I am not okay with a sticker on every single panel. "How would that look on the alt. model?" I ask myself. May someone who has this (w/stickers applied) post a pic of how the alt. looks?

I saw it in the Lego store in Dallas, Texas just 2 days after Christmas. Almost sold out, too.

I have made an entry to the contest! Sadly, I am new, so I can't yet upload the lxf. However, I am sure you guys can build it from the picture. -The typical pyrotechnic device shot by New Years spectators. Explodes after an alloted time, send multicolored sparks in all directions.

I have to say that this seems like a good direction for Lego. A lot of creativity and expansion involved. A thumbs-up in my book. *grabs credit card*

I too was expecting a giant flying whale. However, this is an MOC of epic proportions that must be congratulated for the pure intricateness. "GOOD JOB!"

Very good review, Rufus! When i first saw this set, I wasn't very impressed. Now, my view has totally changed. Too bad I don't have the funds to buy it, or I would have one shipping right now.

good MOC SavaTheAggie! Nice and simple, while having a good spirit to it. However, I may ask: What city is this Lego Store located in? I may go see it in person.

For me, this 'issue' is of very little base. The figs that I have that were made in China seem little different from regular sets- The only 'quality problems' I have experienced are loose hips. In fact, my s3 Tennis Girl is inseparable from other figs!

Yes, It is like that in the US, as I noted in the Offical Ninjago Topic. I also agree with the fact that the blister packaging and the spinner add greatly to the price of the packs, and that the packs are way more then the minifig. However, the spinners are not blind packaged like the CM and card games you mentioned.

This Ninjago theme is shaping up to be a great one. The spinners are a tad overpriced, but kids are eating them up-I went to Target a few days ago, and they had put out about 20-or-so spinners. At least half of them were gone when I went there today.

No, I do not think so. The spinner pack seem to me like a ~$7 value, as the packs have A Minifig, Accessories, Cards, and a Spinner; all in a blister pack. However, This is a thing of perceived value, and varies from person to person.

Hello all Eurobricks members! I am TheDesuComplex. I have been lurking these forums for about a year now as an anonymous guest, and finally decided to join. I have been a Lego fan most of my life, buying up as much of it as I possibly can. I was mostly into Bionicle before it was announced that it was ending, right about the same time I found you guys(and girls). Nowadays I am loving Harry Potter, Technic, and Creator. Me, as a person? Caring, sincere, and a wee bit insane(however, aren't we all?). Oh, I also take a liking to memes, if that interests anyone here.
