Chills

I saw the 2015 sets already out in a Target in Naperville (Chicago suburb) The AT-DP looks awesome! Finally we are getting a new Shuttle Tyderium!!! I have been waiting this for years. Woot!

I have a LOT of respect for both Anio and Markus. You guys are amazing MOCers. I understand why you two don't like the set, but I have a different opinion of 10221. I love the set, even with is obvious flaws. It was a lot of fun to build and looks amazing (IMHO) on display in my Death Star room. It was the set that brought me out of my Dark Ages, so there's a certain level of sentimentality that allows me to accept the SSD's short-comings. Beckmesser, Anio was stating his opinion in the review. Don't let it detract from your enjoyment of the UCS Slave I. Not everyone is going to agree with you, and vice versa. Don't let that sort of thing get to you or you're going to be angry a lot of the time. That being said, I can't wait to pick up Slave I. I'm already starting to move some sets around to make room for her.

That's quite uncalled for. Anio was giving his honest opinion, which obviously differs from yours. That's no reason to call his MOC "crappy."

We need one after January 1st!

Now this thread makes a lot more sense.

That's pretty creative. So what was your inspiration? Did you look at your collection and say, "what two ships totally do not belong together, then I'll make them into one!"

Gotcha. I'll just enjoy your workmanship.

LOL, gotcha. My hats off to you for your dedication to SW LEGO... willing to pay those prices.

Very cool MOCs. I like the first one the best; the idea of a cannon on one side and battery on the other is quite clever.

These are all so amazing! I forget, are any for sale?

How much for the R2, if you don't mind me asking? I'd like to get the set, but only if it's a really good deal.

Thanks for posting the catalog. I'm wondering why UCS Slave I wasn't pictured. Curious. Those Speed Champions sets are awesome, I really can't wait to start collecting them.

Good-bye beautiful Zenith. I can't wait to see what you're working on next, Bob. You hinted at something in your speeder thread....

Yeah, the far right looks most movie-accurate.

Very cool Falcon MOC. I hope it stays put on the wall this time. The pic you posted of the pieces makes me think of what the Falcon would have looked like if Han and Luke weren't very good shots. EDIT: Post 500!

Thanks! So what kind of theme are you thinking about doing? Have you done any type of construction project before? I never had attempted something like this, so there was a lot of trial and error along the way.

Yes yes yes! When I first saw it I thought, Meh, but this looks like a fun set with great mini figures.

I'll be up at midnight ready to order!

Oh yeah, if I ever have a 10179 it'll be BLed. My wife would kill me for buying a MISB one. LOL

Tell me about it! I thought I had planned out the room with enough space for a few years of future sets, but I'm seeing so many that I love I might have to take over the craft room I built for my wife, which is adjacent to the Death Star room.

Should this be in the Sci Fi Forum?

I am exactly the same. My collection is by far mostly Star Wars, but I really like the Creator and City themes.

There was a line? Wow, I wonder if there was one at the stores here in the Chicago area. I'm just going to order it from S@H. I can wait a couple of days after launch.

HAHA! Dr. Spock. I think I'd take a Gungan over a turkey any Thanksgiving.
