It is never ingenious. It's amazing how these people always get caught out when they get too greedy. Did he not think that stores keep a track of their inventory and wouldn't eventually pick up on it? Very silly

Definitely not what I expected

I agree, I think it looks horrible. I will get the minifigs definitely though

I'm still in shock that one sold for over $50 the other day.

Completed my R2 last night, and I love it. It definitely was expensive but he does look pretty cool. I am pretty sure I didn't have the same whites throughout the build. My wife thought it was the lighting in the room but there definitely were some slight colour variations with it. The third leg drops fine on mine, the issue though is that the grilled pieces keep coming off. Seems like they have been slightly warped, they will sit flush and then start coming off the studs. If I don't move it though, well it sits fine with no issues. A blue light brick would have been awesome for the holographic projector. Overall though I am pretty happy with it.

Thanks for the review. I have been eyeing this off and once the price drops I will be adding it to the collection. Love the dark green

That is pretty fast. We don't usually get them this quickly Received both my S@H orders from the 4th promo. Looking forward to building R2!

The different Amazon sites (.fr,.it,.de,.es) that I use have had the Fire Brigade, Pet Shop and Grand Emporium all for 110-120 euros when I bought them. Just depends which one you choose, but I think the Town Hall will reach these levels in time. Prices are always high to begin with on those sites upon a new release, then they start decresing.

It depends where you live and what your local RRP is. I am fairly certain the price will drop from that 160 euros though

Absolutely stunning! So detailed yet so functionable. I love the little features like the driver's indicators. :wub: :wub: :wub:

Glad I saw this thread, had to go check over my Fire Brigade sets I have to ensure I do not have this dreaded number! It's a beautiful set, but surely it will be discontinued some day

The ears make it easier to find. There are only 3 per box, it is one of the rare minifigs in that series

No they increased it. Some stores only will give you that express option as it is trackable.

They have upped the shipping charge on it again, it used to be closer to 50 euros. They also have upped the freight on the Imperial Shuttle My Super Star Destroyer shipped from Amazon.fr for 318 euros. Very happy

The animation looks nice. The video presentation was rather ordinary. The set looks pretty nice, though I'm not a fan of the "defence mechanisms" Still, it is aimed at attracting children. It has made me ponder how to create a larger, to scale Weathertop

Thanks for the review! 33 stickers?? The minifigs are awesome, but I have my doubts about this set now

I like the look of it and the figs looks awesome! Thanks for the review

Droid Escape and the Lego 66396 Superpack are on their way to me

Love it! :wub: :wub: :wub: Would be awesome to fill it with more figs and weapons!

That was my opinion. If it was free shipping then I would have paid full price for something just to get the fig but wasn't going to pay full price plus the minimum $30 off for shipping

I've opened up two boxes, and made 3 complete sets in each so far. Looks like you were just a bit unlucky

Sorry guys, I didn't have time to try them out last night. Still, it is great to know we will have access to these sets through one amazon store eventually, even if it takes a couple of months!

That seems to be the general concensus on the Star Wars forum

Amazon.it have the Town Hall, UCS R2-D2, Sopwith Camer as well as new Star Wars and Lord of the Rings up for preorder

Thanks for an awesome review!!! :thumbup: It looks fantastic, however the mix of whites is alarming. Just hoping my S@H order doesn't have it!
