Hello and welcome to Eurobricks.

Star Wars hands down. I've occasionally watched the Star Trek tv show back when I was a kid and there was nothing else to watch on the 5-7 channels I had to choose from and I've seen most of the movies. You know what though, I've never felt the need to or had the desire to re-watch any of them. I don't know what it is, just not into it. Star Wars on the other hand, I can watch and re-watch everything Star Wars. OT, PT, TCW, anything and everything. I'll watch the re-releases at the theater starting next year. I just can't imagine my life without Star Wars.

As already noted, very nice job on your MINIs. The Malevolence is easily recognizeable. I also like the Venators that compliment it.

All the sets have already been announced. You'll have to wait until 2012 for more OT sets.

I just recently joined also. Glad to see you here on Eurobricks.

Thanks to both. +1 to lcs. He shipped items very quickly and communicated very well. A smooth transaction. +1 to TheShnomon. He shipped the items well protected and kept me updated throughout the whole transaction.

I'm really glad that I stumbled across your Fleet. It is truly an awesome sight to behold. I would really like to get into the Pirates line but I'm trying to keep myself from getting into too many of the different lines of LEGO. Great job.

I don't mind the 2012 Box Design. Their decision to use Darth Maul makes sense as he was the main adversary of the Jedi in Episode I.

All Sold.

Pm sent to RvB.

As requested, pictures have been uploaded. There are only 2 remaining as 1 of these sets was just sold on eBay.

Thanks for the review and posting the pics. I really like your background story on how you and your son got this set.

I was hoping to hang on to these sets but I ran into some catastrophic problems with my car and need money quickly to get my car repaired. With that being said, I have 2 Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruisers for sale. I'm asking $85.00 per set. Buyer to pay exact shipping costs. All sets are brand new in sealed boxes. The first person that contacts me and is ready to pay will get these. I can't hold these for anyone. I'm looking to sell these within the USA. I will entertain international buyers. I have these sets listed on eBay as "Buy It Now". If you are interested, let me know immediately so I can close my listing.

I was wondering when the Mini Vulture Droid was coming out. I can't wait to find these so I can buy a Squadron of them.

My local TRU normally has no more than a $10 mark-up on Lego sets. The only time I saw them at $10+ was approximately 1-2 weeks before last Christmas. When they restocked, their prices went back to the TRU normal mark-up. It wouldn't surprise me though if they increased their mark-up for their BOGO 1/2 off sale. In fact I expect it from them.

Thanks for sharing this image here as I probably never would have found it anytime soon. I really like most everything about that photo except the way Leia's holding the blaster.

Thanks for sharing your MOC with all of us. I really enjoyed your shots. They give a good depiction of the battle from both sides.

I completely agree with everything you pointed out. There are always little things here and there that don't make sense when it comes to sci-fi stories. You know what? I just power through it because I enjoy watching them. What I can't stand though are major errors that don't make any sense.

The Citadel was a really good episode. My son and I really enjoyed seeing Fives and Echo as ARC Troopers. I like that you're seeing some of the clones develop during The Clone Wars. It shows that there's more to The Clone Wars than the major characters.

I'm pretty shocked at the voting too. So this is where all the Indiana Jones fans hang out.

Although I was slightly interested in the Prince Of Persia line when it was first released, there was nothing about the line that stood out for me. It had an Indiana Jones feel to it and I know it's not fair because they're two completely different themes but that's what it reminded me of. I think Prince of Persia had good potential as a movie with multiple sequels and with LEGO but it flat out bombed.

I really hope the 7877 Naboo Starfighter is a step-up from the previous set. I've always liked the design of this ship and all the MOCs that have been made. There's definitely a lot of potential. I'll just keep my fingers crossed on this one.

It makes sense to have Chewbacca make an appearance in The Clone Wars since it's implied by Yoda in Revenge of the Sith that they have some sort of history. Aside from the little teaser trailer, we have no other data on what type of contact they've had. In general, I'm enjoying how characters from the Star Wars films have made it into The Clone Wars. It kind of ties things together for the viewers.

Looks like I'll be picking up a Battle of Naboo set. Just hope TRU has it in stock.

Put me down for the Knight Bus. It'll be a nice addition to my daughter's LEGO Harry Potter collection. I'm really glad LEGO remakes some of their older sets.
