  1. If it makes you feel better I am excited for this set, however I also need to see this thing first. I was not excited enough for the previous smaller versions, so I am hoping if this new one has the pieces and size that the rumors suggest, I will have to add it to my list! Marvel may hurt or help this year. Sanctum was an initial yes, but the figure letdown has me on the fence. (and I usually don't care about figs), Hulkbuster is intriguing, and the unknown $500 has me worried! If it's awesome I may not be able to afford them!
  2. Please don't make it all silver Lego! I can't afford another Razorcrest!
  3. I wanted to add some shiny after I completed this build. But I could only afford 1x1 rounds! lol I still need to change out my radar dishes too!
  4. I really think this comes down to being iconic. Did Avatar make a ton of money, show 3D could do something in a theatre and become a cultural phenomenon of it's day? Yes It may have led to a Iconic movie experience, but not a iconic brand. How many people were clamoring for merchandise of any kind back then, or prior to the new films being announced. Not many. I am not sure any generation is excited for this versus a Star Wars, Indiana Jones, or current Marvel movies etc. While Avatar is visually appealing and should make a good theatre experience, (dont count out Cameron) He only makes Billion dollar plus movies when people say they won't! I only think this brand will make cash at the theatre. Personally I judge my movies by re-watch ability, and while I saw Avatar a few times in the theatres, and own in on Blu ray, I have never watched it completely again. Not trying to hate on it, just dont know many fans of my generation who care, my kids are not intrigued for the trailers, so which generation pines for Avatar toys? As a lego fan I wish it luck, but I think this sells poorly, which will be interesting for the future movies.
  5. Man, as someone who had one as a kid, this takes me back. Dead on, and even prettier than the actual! lol! The cartridge rack and everything is bringing back child hood memories, and I eventually picked up the nintendo for the same reason. But with so many amazing sets coming, this may have to wait. Just too many big priced sets in too many themes nowadays. Something has got to give!
  6. Hmm, if that Kuill is real, maybe they accidently meant it to be in the Indiana Jones set with the Arc of the Covenant! The melting action would go well!
  7. Mine didnt show up during my initial order, but did appear in my email confirmation, and my order details on lego.com. But that was a few minutes after it went live last night.
  8. Man, Jerac's build had around 5000 pieces, and many were small because of the building techniques. If that thing has over 6100 pieces it is either going to be huge, or similar in style to Jerac's! Either way, that's $529 I get to save. If only it came out a year ago! Definitely don't need two large Razor's!
  9. I wish it would have been $125! I was .02 short for the promo and had to buy a third set! Not sure when my kids will get them, but at some point!
  10. I just wish they would have double VIP and Promos together! And these hikes, jeeez! The new standard UCS will be $225 or higher? I'm glad I have a MOC AT-AT and Razorcrest so I can avoid those at least!
  11. Have to agree, not every structure looks good at that scale. HM really needs to be a D2C Its a potential nice way to get multiple rides/buildings if they continue, but my entire family went mehhh (once they saw it) and there is alot of Disney in this house. Looks like $40 I can push to SW and Marvel.
  12. Definitely going to have to wait to see what the $500 D2C is. If it is Avengers tower with a better minifigure selection that would eliminate the Sanctum for me. A solid build, and below average figure selection, is just underwhelming. But I really want something to go with the Bugle!
  13. If your going to made a $170 Bad Batch set, they should have done it with the Bad Batch Shuttle! It's nice to get something different, but that's a solid chunk of change for only 5 figs, and a fairly unknown vehicle.
  14. Does there T-Shirts confirm UCS Razorcrest later in the year?
  15. Kinda feels like a large regular set, (which it is) and not a D2C level. I like it, but maybe when I see it in person, im now on the fence.
  16. So different Vader fig afterall? New face, and not full arm printing?
  17. Have to agree, no way this makes it to the 18th without an early pic leaking!
  18. I have to agree with this. Love the Razor Crest, bought the initial set, then upgraded it to Jerac's MOC because I primarily display UCS style ships. But for the price, if true, the RC is not iconic, mainly because it is already gone, and he has moved onto another ship. If this happens, it will be interesting to see how it does. I will be passing for sure. Any time you start getting to $500 plus it better be a MF, AT-AT, or SD, and as much as I love the show, that ship doesn't rank with those. If cool MOC's didn't exist, I might be tempted, but it needs to be better than Jerac's Build a UCS Mando style N-1 for $200-$250 and I will relent! Any chance someone is working on one of those out there?
  19. Here's hoping Inquisitor ends up at Costco or on sale down the line, and I just may pick that up!
  20. Very enjoyable build, amazing how many little pieces are packed in there! And such a nice build to see on a shelf! Thanks again for the stunning work, always wanted a Venator, but just couldn't find the money and space for another full size vehicle. This is nice size for sure, and I will be checking your future work! Space is filling up, I think some reshuffling will be in order!
  21. I don't know how people have mixed things about Strange 2, it was amazing. That being said, after seeing it I wish all the Minifigures were coming from Strange 2! There was no need to include Infinity!
  22. Parts came yesterday, made some progress! https://flic.kr/ps/3X8Rjp
  23. A little surprised by the line up with repeats from 76108. (especially assuming they will be the same) But still intrigued by the set! Hoping those additional figs and 1700 extra parts make it worthwhile! Maybe this is just a beefed up re-issue with 5 extra figs?
  24. Ooo Nice! I can definitely recommend it, I started the build but then saved some $ and got my last batch of parts from PAB, 6 weeks later I have been looking at a skeleton of the Venator and wishing I had just brick linked everything! Oh well!
  25. Didn't take long for the Fighter tank to go out of stock!
