baby

I do collect both theme. Just like you, I'm attracted to the new Castle theme as well. But i didn't manage to collect all of them especially the big set as my priority is still Star Wars. Buying Castle sets have more minifigs which fasten up the process of building army @ a reasonable price & there are metallic pieces too. I do duplicate some of the small sets like 3 each for 7009 Final Joust, 7090 Crossbow Attack, & 7040 Dwarves' Mine Defender & 2 sets for Knights' Catapult Defense & Skeletons' Prison Carriage, & Castle Battle Pack. But still I limit myself on those Castle sets as my purpose of collecting LEGO is because of Star Wars. All you have to do is to purchase the theme that you really really like & if you think that you can't keep your collection for a long time I think you should buy Star Wars theme as they have market value. But for me, I will keep them. Anyway both theme is a great theme, & fair since now both theme have parts made in China. So Castle has a reasonable price, & more minifigs (the main reason why people are purchasing LEGO) & even have minifigs pack or you can purchase them from pick a brick. Still you have to know which theme you really like.

Bought 7673 today. Is a nice set since it got a slide open-like cockpit.

Well, I'm ok with the speeder bike if the design is good (if compare with the #7655 Clone Battle Pack) but I feel like the coming battle pack have less pieces to the battle pack now. IS a great news to have both of this battle pack although it looks like that it is going to have less pieces. I'm excited with the AAT too since i miss the last one.

Looks like this set will be the next biggest set from LEGO. Hopefully there is some interior in it since it was able to separate into 3 parts.

I've bought 1x 7676 Republic Gunship, 1x 7675 AT-TE, 1x 7674 V-19 Torrent, & 2x 7679 Republic Fighter Tank. Haven't open up the set yet.

Wow, is a great job. I like this AT-ST very much. It was so nicely design.

I bought 1x 7736 Coast Guard Quad Bike. This set is not bad though.

The whole lot of Clone Troopers are worth USD150 & only 50 sets produce?

Wow, I have to say this is very nice. You guys are really great at MOC-ing

Folks from US get a 2nd chance to get their 7666 Hoth Base from LS@H. Hope you guys don't mind i post it here. Link: http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Product.aspx?...n=240&d=322

Where is the comic con being held? That sets looks great to me.

Hopefully when we get the set we have the full instruction scan from the instruction book or else we will stuck half way building it

But the instruction i downloaded doesn't seems to have it, it seems to continue on book 2 but too bad book 2 start with the cockpit

Looks like one of our old member have started review on the Droid Gunship. Check this out: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=329987

The Clone Wars set will be release on the 27th for some Asia country & they even have promotion on RGS which makes it same price as AT-TE, Republic Fighter Tank & Droid gunship.

I guess CW battle pack is the coming one too since TLC give us only a Clone & a Commander in each of the new sets except for that v-19 torrent. Hopefully there will be a pilot clone in the battle pack since we gonna need it to pilot the RGS.

That depends on you. Since there are sales for Sandcrawler i suggest you buy sandcrawler since you get to save. Besides there are Jawa, C-3PO, & Owen Lars. Buy smart & save

From what i see from the instructions book, asajj ventress' light sabers holder are different from the normal one.

We know that already & thanks for sharing. Actually, the other 4 sets like Droid Gunship, Spider Droid, The Twilight & the Clone Tank instrcution is also available for download. You can download them too.

Nice to meet ya & welcome. You found that this hobby is really relaxing? i found that it is stressful as the LEGO at my country is so expensive which can't be afford by the kids itself. By the way, enjoy your post here

Me too. The sets are impressive except the Twilight, which i think it don't have any special function & those minifigs that you can get from AT-TE, so no point owning it (no offence). Too bad, financial is my problem, i am worry that i can't ful fill my wishlist

Can you guys scan the smaller catalog? I would like to see, pretty please

I agree with you, it looks like it has a lot of big base plate like pieces

The Clone Tank looks great. But why is there a white clone commander? I don't see The Twilight have any specialty with it.

Wow. . . LEGO is really releasing their instruction scan before they release the sets. Nice new pic
