  1. Thanks. Yeah that's the only reason I don't have D-0 as it's too large vs. BB-8. Hopefully the R2 is of similar scale to the first UCS but using new building techniques to make it smoother and more detailed.
  2. How does the current R2 UCS scale with BB8 model? I have the latter but would get R2 to display together. The rumoured remake is therefore ideal if it will :)
  3. Speechless. Fantastic build! You now have yourself another new follower
  4. Hi all, I made the following video for my LUG - a Christmas advent calendar, where members created a short Christmas video and one was revealed each day in December. I was day 9 - so a little late posting it on here. Enjoy Christmas on Tatooine (featuring my builds, TAT01, TAT02 and TAT03 on Rebrickable).

  5. I saw I-TS transport on John Lewis website yesterday with an exclusive tag. Tie fighter pilot helmet I got from Argos. Not sure I've seen it elsewhere other than Amazon (which could be a reseller) Razor crest I think is Amazon exclusive. Hope I've helped :)
  6. No problem. I was on the fence about the helmets but couldn't say no to that price. I was going to pick mine up Wednesday on my day off but that's the first day shops reopen so will be avoiding the retail park just in case it's chaos...
  7. Tie fighter pilot helmet. £37 from Argos in a black Friday offer
  8. Ha! Nice, I like it.
  9. Thanks. Yeah, someone already pointed it out to me on firestartoys' Instagram post advertising it, but good point raising the suggestion to everyone else who might be interested ? Still not ordered my cantina yet, maybe next year! Then I'll order the arms
  10. It's available in the UK also and the offer started today rather than the 1st Nov, so I'd have thought it would also be available in Europe.
  11. Nice diorama! Like some of the greenling work/detail in different areas of the set. I may have to borrow some of those ideas to my display
  12. Thanks all for the advice. Unfortunately I don't have the cash at the moment to buy two new sets. As @Mandalorianknight says, I don't want the effort of selling figures individually. I still have two sets to sell that have been sat ready for 6 months but still haven't gotten around to it... @NerdYoda I too have a mini diorama (See here for my builds) so was hoping to expand it with a cheap set and get another 2-3 buildings mixed with my spare parts, with the complete set coming some time next year.
  13. I was thinking of buying two, one complete with figs and a second to part out to make other buildings, hence why I was debating buying the set without figs from eBay to save me money. So you're advising to buy two full sets and sell the figs of one?
  14. A few sellers on eBay have the cantina and side buildings for sale (new) for £150. Obviously no vehicles, figs or dewback. What are people's thoughts on buying that, to make additional buildings for a bigger display? I do plan to pick up a set with figures at some point, but think this is a cheap way to add maybe 4-5 small buildings to a display?
  15. Ah yes, didn't think of those! I was thinking they had different printing on, but that's the other orange (pilot) arms, not the snow speeder. Thanks
  16. Anyone think these would work with the new Ponda minifigure? https://www.firestartoys.com/Shop/Minifigure-Parts/Minifigure-Custom-Design-Arms/52778-Custom-Design-Arms-SW-Resistance-Pilot.html Or is it the wrong shade of orange? I don't own and resistance figures to check
  17. Some people have been unable to get hold of the set. I'm just informing those that would like a copy it was back in stock. I managed to pick up the red a-wing pilot polybag years ago from the Lego store. From a different shop I got several shore troopers and the brown R2 (I've forgotten the specific version, the trans coloured head in rogue one) polybags.
  18. For the UK folks, 501st pack in stock at Amazon for next day delivery. Act quick. Yoda's saber looks nice, but it's not quite swayed me to a day 1 purchase of the Cantina just yet. I'll see if Smyth's or John Lewis who sometimes have these big sets do a discount first, otherwise I'll use my VIP points. I will get it at some point ?
  19. Too much printing on a minifig can look horrible. I don't like the over detailed figures in the UCS star destroyer set because if unnecessary. Arm printing yes, all the extra creases etc, no thanks.
  20. Same in the UK, £20 more than CC set...
  21. I was lucky and got 2x 501st from Amazon. My wife has ordered me the AAT from Amazon but it's up to 2 months for delivery (luckily my bday is Dec so I can wait). I did tell her to order it from Smyth's - it's still in stock online there. Act fast
  22. Looks great, definite purchase and look forward to adding it to my tatooine scene. Looks like I'll now have 3 dewbacks, 10 sandtroopers and about 8 bith haha. Thinking ahead to 2021 sets, without going down the wishlist path (as I already own one), wouldn't surprise me if Lego played another safe tatooine release with the escape pod in the £20 range (thinking based on @jdubbspost a few pages back about the January wave), to fit in with the landspeeder, obi hut and now the cantina.
  23. I also noticed the building on the left has clips to expand. Also there is a green haze above the building but in front of what I suspect is the cantina - dewback?
  24. I agree, could be V-35 which puts my next moc on hold. I planned to design/build one for my tatooine build and the leaked photos could fit in well with my buildings (see TAT01, 02 and 03 on rebrickable for a shameless plug). Is the manbat wearing Ezra's top?
  25. Thanks, yeah it's an option. Looking at the parts used I probably have a load of spares to use bringing the cost down.
