  1. Buy it from shop.lego.com. If the order is more than NOK 500,- you will get free shipping, and you don't have to worry about taxes since Lego pays those. Very few shops carry the exclusive sets. Maybe Outland in Oslo or Bergen have them, but it won't be cheaper than getting them directly from Lego. I would recommend to: 1) Buy something cheap at the Lego Shop now so you can sign up as a VIP 2) Wait until October to buy the Sandcrawler, you'll get 2x VIP points + most likely some promo item(s) (For some reason September has no promotions :/ )
  2. January? Oh the horrors... We've only gotten 1 UCS SW Set so far this year right?
  3. They sure look different to me: (Photos from Brickset.com)
  4. Ah, but they don't need to do it justice... like always the build will probably be an excuse to put a lot of figs in a small set.
  5. Nice build Lord Vladivus, keep it up!
  6. We had been hot on the heels of what we thought were a group of bounty hunters through the forests of Felucia for several hours when we heard rapid blaster fire and a scream. We headed in the direction we thought the sound came from, and as we came upon a clearing a transporter had already taken off and was out of range... Donnie: Look, over there! A Trandoshan lay still on the ground... alarmingly still... Me: I think he's dead, let's check it out. We moved closer, and I bent down to take a closer look. Me: He is dead alright, multiple blaster wounds. Kaitain: Do you think he was part of Boba Fett's group? Me: The only Trandoshan bounty hunter I have heard of is Bossk, but as far as I know he is no friend of Boba Fett. I actually think they are enemies based on stories I have heard. But you never know with these bounty hunters, if there is money in it... Donnie: That isn't Bossk, I'm sure. I dealt with some trandoshans before, and this one is way to young to be Bossk. Me: No way we will catch up to whoever he was travelling with, might as well call it a day and head on to Mon Calamari.
  7. Nice work as always Ninja Nin! Great junkyard feeling!
  8. Very nice work! Where are the stickered tiles on the top from?
  9. Thanks for the photos! I really like this one, always loved the look of Slave 1 and this is a really nice version of it. Minifig lineup is fitting too (another new minifig or a second Bespin guard would have been awesome of course), but to be realistic this is probably as good as it gets for an official set. Hopefully it will be out in October in time for the double VIP points.
  10. Still not working for me, video works directly on YouTube.
  11. That looks awesome! (Embed doesn't work for me, getting video does not exist message)
  12. Our sources told us Boba Fett had been spotted entering a factory on Fondor. We quickly assembled a team and headed in... Kaitan: No sign of Boba so far. Donnie: He is one slippery bounty hunter... LegoFjotten: Just one more area to check, and then we're on to Ord Mantell. Build without minifigs, I'm pretty happy with how that assembly line turned out. Edit: Added avatars and the second photo without minifigs.
  13. Thanks for the blog! Wat-Tambor: I agree it doesn't look very sci-fi, it would probably fit in GoH with very minor adjustments. I will hide behind the scarce source material, and the fact that Naboo doesn't look very sci-fi either...
  14. Thanks! The door is indeed borrowed, last seen on EB's frontpage a week or two ago, but I think I've seen it before as well.
  15. We had gotten word from one of our contacts on Bothawui that a couple of bounty hunters had shown up in one of their older cities. A meeting had been arranged on a quiet side street under the cover of dark. Not knowing what to expect I had two of my top guys take up position on a roof, ready for whatever or whoever was coming... As the bounty hunters approached it was clear that none of them were Boba Fett. LegoFjotten: I'm looking for Boba Fett, do you know where he is? Dengar: Who are you, are you a friend of his? I knew the wrong answer to this question could quickly lead to a shootout, but I had no choice, I just had to gamble. Most bounty hunters were highly competitive and had no love for their competition... and Boba Fett was some serious competition. LegoFjotten: Let's just say I want to give him a message... the last one he will ever get. IG-88: (stares coldly) Dengar: In that case, yeah, I know where you can find him... He is headed for Tatooine. Note: Since I don't know much about Bothawui and there aren't many pictures around I had to improvise. For this build I stole some colors from the two (very different) pictures on the Wookiepedia page and just built something.
  16. Not so sure about that... after the (IMO, YMMV, etc) suckfest that was the PT expectations for the new trilogy are pretty darn low. On the bright side, I may be pleasantly surprised if the movies actually turn out to be good!

  18. The rules say"to depict a scene showing their troops trying to track down Boba Fett and finding out that he has already moved on to a different planet." Can we build a scene where Boba Fett is present but in the process of slipping away/leaving? Or will a build actually showing Boba escaping from rebel troops not be in line with the rules?
  19. I think you forgot my last freebuild when updating the stats, total XP should be 112 not 107. Sorry for missing out on Ep. V, hopefully I will be back for this round.
  20. Pictures, I never watch video reviews. I've tried to watch a few, and hated it. The short pirates review is well done though. If someone were to do a 2 minute video review of something like Benny's Spaceship or similar sized set I would give the format a chance.
  21. Did you guys see this one? https://ideas.lego.com/projects/68687
  22. That was quick for the Exo-Suit, glad I got my orders in earlier this morning!
  23. Wow, really cool!
  24. Very cool video, nicely done! I agree about the barrels, but overall this looks very nice! Looking forward to some high res pictures. I was secretly hoping for two figs (didn't want to jinx it by saying it), but green was a big surprise for me. I will get at least 2 of these, probably more. Might even build me one of those stands from the video...
