In Spain, LEGO is not selling Castle. Only in T'R'U. So, through internet, I've bought: one of each 2007 Castle set plus two extra Crossbow Attack

Hmmmmmm I like Formula 1. As some of you know, I'm spanish, like Alonso. We in Spain are backing our pilot because he's a fantastic driver, and cold-blooded like Schumacher. It's true that he flew to McLaren Mercedes because of the money, but everybody does the same. But the difference is that if he goes, for example, to Toyota, it is only to make money, but they don't have a winner car. He will go to a team that would offer him "team work", money (of course) and a winner car. He's not going to Toyota. In McLaren Mercedes, Ron favourited clearly to Hamilton since the very first races because of his very good ability, but this treat caused Hamilton to be "over confident". MacLaren (Dennis) and the FIA have helped all the time this season to Hamilton. I.E. the crane pulling Hamilton's car, no punishment for the safety car incident that caused a crash between Vettel and Webber... OMG I hope Alonso will win the next 10 seasons *wub* and Pedro De La Rosa too, very agressive and nice pilot too. Hamilton... well, he's a good pilot, but he has to learn a lot more from Alonso. And now he's leaving...

Well, if I were in the USA, with no doubt I'd buy it... ... but for europeans... shipping costs suppose more than the price of the publishing, so *wacko* this is a problem for us.

Thanks for the job ^^

Posted one page before: I love this set, I'm only thinking about one thing: sooooooooooooo expensive year the 2008 is going to be*yoda*

LOL what a review!!! I love the story ^_^

:-/ :-/ :-( sad news. Perhaps for christmas *sad*

Type 2008 in Brickshelf and...

*wub* for the pics, hinckley39 ^_^

Target exclusive? And... in Spain, who is going to bring it to us? There is no Target or *Mart... only T'R'U T-T By the way, I *wub* love this set ^^

I don't like the truck if it uses a one-piece-trailer... The plane... well, looks like the the only big moulded pieces are the nose and the tail... so it could be worse ^^

I think TLC has found a mine of gold with this Castle theme.

Every little shop selling LEGO has this catalog available. So... ^_^

That fantastic image comes from retail catalog for 2008, available for shops that sell LEGO.

Of course. The Expanded Universe has come to stay. Now, there are plenty of ships, creatures, locations and characters to be brought into LEGO. AND making CASH... I think (I've read the whole 6 pages) we don't like the Rogue Shadow thing, absolutely. BUT when it become available, many people here will buy it... because of the minifigs... OK, many people bought "the house of plates" thing Cloud City because of Lando, but... too many cash for one only fig. Perhaps hardcore collectors will understand this kind of choice... LEGO has money in mind, of course, and will continue as long as this license won't end with many many kind of models wich one only reason to exist is a minifig or two. Personally, I like a lot the two battlepacks (even with ONLY 3 TROOPERS...bad bad...) and I like the AT-AP very very much. The hailfire and spider mecha looks good, kinda "I've got a Geonosian war on my table" (little thingies ON). So, I think TLC is showing ugly ships up (Rogue Shadow, Republic Cruiser) that will sell not for its design bot for their "included minifigs". Just my 2 spanish cents ^_^

WOW 150 euros in Spain, that's not fair... T-T Is my imagination, or Luke has a chromed lightsaber? In the part list looks like bley, but in some pictures it shines...

Those are 'Round Dish 3 x 3 Inverted' (43898) in Metallic Silver from set 8285.

1st place: Technic line. All time classic, kinda lost in some 90's models, but strong returning. 2nd place: Star Wars line. A natural born classic. 3rd place: Indy line. WWII dressed as a movie. 4th place: new Castle theme, bringing back some of the old castles scent. Perhaps these are the best moments to me. The best building moment: Technic 8448 and 8480. Unforgettable.

Of course Episode I is the worst. The explanation of "The Force" is awful: :-| :-/ :-X *n*

This is a project published in this FBTB post: http://www.fbtbforums.net/viewtopic.php?t=23342 No official dropship at all -_-'

Following the sequence: 7371 OFF ROADER 7372 SILVER CHAMPION 7373 OGEL 7374 TEAM 7375 DINO 7378 ROCKET RACER 7380 FAIRY Finished, too hard task -_-'

Nice review, thank you!!

For instance, in Spain we don't have any LEGO store. So, for this reason, I wasn't able to buy many S@H exclusives throguh internet, in the days I hadn't internet at home T-T

You are right: our former LEGO ambassador asked (october 2006) our spanish community about what car we wanted to see built into LEGO. The question was suggested by LEGO itself, of course. There were some restrictions: - the car should be for display, which means with only few functions - the car should get a body build with System bricks - the car should be very iconic/well know in Europe and US - the car should be from the past 30 years So we voted, the winner was Beetle... and here it is ^^

DJ Force, the prototype could be this one: Whole gallery: http://festum.de/1000steine/myimages/Umfrage
