  1. Found 4 new hobbit sets on the shelf at Toys r us this morning. I decided to pass on the lake town set, but grabbed the other 3. They scanned the regular retail; $19.99, $29.99, and $69.99. It took a little persuading with my wife to ok the purchases, but when the cashier scanned the first set it told her the sets couldn't be sold yet. She called a manager over and The sets were confiscated and pulled from the shelf. I left empty handed.
  2. I built the 4 smallest sets today. I really love this theme so far. My Stagecoach did not come with the extra brown hat or bandana. I've still got the silver mine to put together, but I think I will save it for later. I hope to get the train in the next couple of weeks. I was right on the edge of buying the train today, but I found the series 10 figures so I bought those.
  3. Found them in Michigan at TRU this afternoon. I managed to pick out a set of 16 pretty easy.
  4. I ordered Colby city, Stage coach, and Silver mine from Target.com, and Commanche camp and the figure pack from amazon. I hope after I get paid this week I will be able to pick of the train, but I will most likely have to wait until next paycheck.
  5. I recently used bricklink for parts to build 5 more like the one that came with the turbo tank. I built 3 blue ones and 2 dark red/gray ones. I had to get the parts from a few different sellers. I'm still waiting on some parts from my last purchase. I like yours too, and I might have gone with your designs if I had seen them earlier.
  6. I'm going to try this out this weekend. My parents gave me Jabba's Palace a couple of days ago, and I'm heading to Target afterwork to pick up a 2nd Rancor pit.
  7. Weakest part of the OT? Ewoks Rule. I can't think of another OT set that I'd like to see more than an Ewok village. But, I guess I was the right age to love Ewoks when ROTJ came out.
  8. Looks like I'm going to have to buy a second Rancor pit. Your mod looks fantastic. My parents are buying me Jabba's palace for my birthday next month, I'm going to try and get a 2nd Rancor pit before then.
  9. I've got all the sets and I think the Ultra striker is my favorite one. I have the Chi Raider as well, but I haven't had a chance to build it yet.
  10. I picked up the Naboo fighter from Target for $25, ordered the Umbaran MHC and Mandalorian fighter from legoshop, picked up 2 more 501st AT-RTs from Meijer and I got my first order from clonearmycustoms, helmets for Hardcase, Fives, Dogma, Colt, and Jesse.
  11. I'd be in for another x-wing. Put some different droids, Wedge, Biggs, and some hanger equipment in the set. Of course, I still haven't bought the last X-wing yet, but it's getting high on my list.
  12. This set is marked down to $7.50 at my local Meijer, I might keep an eye out incase it gets any cheaper.
  13. I found the Sewer lair today at Meijer. The first one i went to had all the sets but the Lair. I did find it at the next one I went to though. Looks like they just crammed the sets into any open space on the shelf, they hadn't done their new layouts yet, The lair was the last set I was missing. Can't wait to build it!
  14. I think Wilhurt is my favorite minifig so far. I built the Eagle's castle today, which had my first Speedorz encounter. I think I like them.... I hope this doesn't lead to me buying a whole bunch of them.
  15. In the past couple of weeks I've gotten the following Echo Base Battle of Hoth Barc Speeder with Sidecar AT-RT A-wing Desert Skiff Rancor Pit Clone Troopers vs Droidekas Chances are good I will be getting the Tie fighter and Headhunter tomorrow.
  16. I saw all the new sets on the shelf at Meijer today. I was tempted by the golden dragon set, but I'm still thinking about skipping it and just getting the temple of light. I couldn't make up my mind. Anyway, it was nice seeing them somewhere that didn't have Toys R us' crazy price markups.
  17. Got my Target.com order of the Pack Tracker and Cragger's Command Ship. Also my first order from Lego arrived with the Ewar polybag set. I've decided Ewar is going to be a generic Eagle warrior. I plan on getting 4-5 of him. I placed another order this morning that included the Chi Raider. I can't believe there hasn't been a review of that set yet.
  18. Chi Raider should be a Walmart exclusive in the US. Ultra Striker is Target's and Eagle's Castle is Toys R us'. I think the set looks really cool, but I've put it to the bottom of my list since there aren't any unique minifigures in it. I'm really looking forward to seeing a review of it though.
  19. I really hate Target sometimes. I went back to the store with Target's # for the Ultra Striker, and explained to them about the Jan 1st street date, and how the employee I talked to this weekend told me to come back today. Well they look it up and tell me yes we have it, but it's not due to be put out on the shelf until next week. So even though it can be sold, the website is already selling it, and they know right where it is in the back, I can't have it until next week when they reset the Lego shelves. I told them I was just going to order it from Lego then, and the girl just shrugged. Great customer service.
  20. Looks good. Got my support as well. I've always loved the E-wing. Back in the day, I made a MOC of one that I thought turned out pretty well, but I like yours more.
  21. I can't believe I haven't bought this set yet. I was hoping to get it for Christmas, so I passed it up at $35 when I had the chance. I scrapped my old blue and black Tie fighters the minute I saw pictures of this one. So, I've had an empty spot on my shelf for it for about a year now.
  22. I ended up ordering this set yesterday. My Wife gave me the Echo Base for Christmas, so I needed to give Hoth it's own shelf. I figured I might as well go all out and make the shelf as cool as possible. I'm glad to see that the new snow speeder is close enough to the old model that it won't bother me having them both on the same shelf.
  23. Both Toys R us Stores in my area put the Chima sets out today. Neither had the Eagle's castle though.
  24. My local Walmart has had them out for a week. I've bought 5 sets from them. I ordered 2 more from Target's website as well. My local Target has some sets in the back, but they wouldn't sell me the Ultra Striker because the box has a January first release date on it. I'm still on the hunt for the Ultra Striker, Eagle's Castle, and the Chi Raider.
  25. The goofy Leonidas minifigure made me hate the Lion clan right off the bat. I don't think I've ever wanted to punch a minifigure before this. The other lions look cool though, They are making me take another look at their sets,
