Legoman

This year I dont think I'm getting any lego. But hey, its a WISHlist 10188 Death star 10019 RBR 10144 Sandcrawler 8017 Tie X-1 7163 RGS 10123 Cloud city 7190 Millenium Falcon I'm sure that is impossible can be arranged

Those prices seem good But the TRU markup is on top of that...

I think you've got mixed up between a standard vulture and the hyena droid bomber. The Hyena droid bomber is WAYYY bigger... A standard Vulture droid would make up $5-$10 of a set. By the time you have the LE TRU markup, i would say $35-$40. Right on target Darthperson. As for the Solar Sailor, I'm gonna say $50. Its much bigger than people are giving it credit for...

A few mates and I had a lego get-together yesterday. One of the guys there (12 or 13 year old), well his cousin won a Gold C-3PO free from the lego club (50 were given away in NZ). And his cousin traded it with him for a couple of other figures, then he traded it with me for a $20 City plane Yea same here. I hope I manage to get a Vader to go beside him ANYWAY today i opened up a couple of Indiana jones jungle cutters(i brought them 1/2 price ($45) at the warehouse) origanilly brought to keep MISB long term as an investment. But i decided to make part of a KASYYYK MOC from them (they're great part packs) EDIT: Just brought a MISB 6392 Airport on Trademe for $30NZ (cheapest MISB in BL is $285US) As you can tell, I'm having a great Week!

2006. Great ships, great designs. It had some great classics and was an awsome year.

BACK ON TOPIC! I had a get-together with some lego loving mates today and mentioned this. I think there are quite a few people who would be keen so it sounds like a go-ahead at this stage... Just Let me know (PM prefurably) when your placing the order and I'll let you know what i/we will get.

I finally got me a gold C3-P0 - for $20NZD No packaging though , but i don't need it at that price!

Yeah quite possably. It depends what sales they have in the new year. I aggree shipping charges are outragious! Its kinda anoying, i asked the same question a few weeks ago over on FBTB when S@H had grevious 1/2 price. The sale only lasted a few days, and was finished by the time people got back to me, and there's no way i'm paying $80 postage for 1 grevious to NZ, that makes it a bargian of... FULL PRICE WOOHOO!!!! HAHA! But anyway, yeah, i might be intrested. (BTW im in Christchurch too)

I'M in! As for the set, it seems a bigger then most people are thinking imo. I'm hoping its Ep:II style rather than CW, i hate CW...

Yeah, it been up on here for the last few pages too...

See the red and green stars in the pic? That means for AUST and NZ they're limited release, so its likely they're exclusive other places too..................

$20 in the US seems really unlikely. If you look at it for a while, you realize... Its BIG! At a guess i would say its $40-$50USD and $65-$100 in AUST Where did it say it is $40 in AUST???

Just so you know, don't trust those pictures (the non-lego ones). They are simply what one person thought the name suggested as a set, they are not even confirmed sets, still only romours. So dont get too exited/depressed yet, until we see proper pics. Sorry mate, we're not... Its just the angle of the ship, is a 3x12 slope However, back on topic... I must say, i think the solar sailor is getting unfairly treated. The set doesn't look that bad IMO, and has a lot of potential. It looks as if it can prehaps fold out for a parachute (SP?). Also, its not stubby as people have said, again, its the angle of the pic, and the fact its only patially folded out. Fully folded in/out it will look better than the 1/2 way it is in the pic. Besides, it is prelim (well... kinda anyway) and could still change before final production. All the sets look... OK to me. Im really dissapionted about the lack of OT/PT, its all focused on CW ATM . I'll get vaders tie, and thats it. I'm loving the sound of that endor battle set though, and endor

Ah yes another Kiwi. Good to have you here. I'm a Kiwi in CHCH too, where bouts are you in CHCH? I'm in Westmorland (the hill over from Cashmere)

You think living in the outback of the US is bad? Haha, funny guy... Seroiously... you get lego cheap as and complain about a SECOUND promo figure (gold C3PO last year being the first)??? Try living on the other side of the world where lego is a complete ripoff, and where promos don't even exist...

And incase anyone is unsure, thats in febuary 2009

JANGO FETT?!?!?! Awsome! This brings new hope for a new Jango Fett Fig in some new sets

Prehaps you could update it's status in the 2009 pics thread to '2008/Unreleased' KimT?

OK guys, it's heading towards the end of this year, and i haven't managed to hear anything about the release of the 8028 Mini Snowspeeder. Now I've done some research, and I've found that this mini, will not be released (deja-vu anyone? *cough* 6968 *cough*) Here is the set: And most of you will know, 3 minis were seen to come out this year (not including 20006 clone turbo tank, thats not counted because it's brickmaster) And i found this quote from steve witt: We have seen 8028 Mini Tie fighter, and the V-19.That leaves the 8029 Snowspeeder to be the unreleased set. Intresting though... i might e-mail brickset and tell them, they still have it as 'yet to be released' Legoman

I disaggree, 7660 being $60 doesn't make the droid fighter worth $30 at all. The naboo fighter was the main ship, the vulture was a 'bonus' if you ask me, mabye worth $10-$20 MAX. I would guess 7751 will be about $50-$60AUD Here's what expect for NZ prices Battlepacks $25 Hyena Droid Bomber $45 or $50 Vaders Tie $60 Ahsoka's Starfighter $60-$75 AAT $90 Republic Attack Shuttle $100-$130

Thats what i'm doing It's a great set! I love it! I won't get any other sets, but i do think some of them are great designs. The AAT is awsome, although i with it was ep 1, its still a really good design. Ahsokas fighter is good, i wouldn't rave about it though. Battlepacks are terrible but lets admit it, everyone gets them purely for figs, so in that way they're excelent! Bomber, well not even good figs Shuttle, its okay, but the front is ugly.

WOW! Congrats on the sale harmacy! $1010? I mean it's fully worth it, but i was going to go up to $750 but - wow.Then again, the guy still did get a bargain lol

Check out the New AAT, has anyone else noticed the new botttom? much better

Yeah, the doors were amazing, and i love the crashed snowspeeder in the snow amazing how you did the lead up to it. i also love the blue lights in the ground of the base i still dont understand how you did that...

Oh no, no, they were great too, but...I just did it to hassle him in the first place.
