7754 Home One Mon Calamari Star Cruiser, great set, so glad I now have it.

Myers has started stocking the minifig cases, I only saw the 8 fig one though. RRP 19.99 Ouch, you can go to Big W and get the 16 one for the same price.

I bought mine today, they are $19.95, 2/3 of the RRP.

Anyone know the Big W price for the LEGO Star Wars Character encyclopedia?

Damn, this might make me buy Kingdoms now.

Yeah it's happening to me in Australia, I think it's worldwide.

Yes they do, on the back down the bottom, they even list it on the Brickmaster books. Believe me I always like to know where the parts are coming from. About the thick ring, take the series 1 Ninja and a TLG made Ninjago figure and look under the hoods, the CM has the thick ring and the Ninjago one has two slits and is thinner. Don't get me wrong I love the CM line, and have no issue with specialised parts in sets that are made in China, as long as I can distinguish which parts are made where.

Yeah that was me. The Han fig is Chinese plastic, it is the same as the collectible minifigs. -there is no printing on the neck, -a thick ring underneath the hairpiece which attaches to the stud on the top of the head, -and there are rectangular indentations underneath the armpits on each arm, All are characteristic trademarks of Chinese figures the Collectible Minifigures line, and they're listed as being made in China. Also surprisingly, the box of the Blu Ray, does not state where the figure is made, usually LEGO lists somewhere where their products come from.

Awesome, I can't wait to get my hands on them. The detailing on these is fantastic.

Star Wars Advent Calendar.

Big W now have the LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace Blu Ray, with Young Han Solo Minifigure on sale for $19.87. I picked up my copy today, the figure is Chinese plastic, but it is good to have him.

I'm not sure but there might be a turnaround of the ship in the archives disc, 8th disc, planet Tatooine.

Looks like I'l be broke next year too, I can't wait to get my hands on these sets.

I just received mine, it looks great next to my other UCS sets. One question though, how come it does not list China as a country of origin when it includes Bossk's head in plastic baggie, and Darth Vader's cape in box, when they are pieces that come from the Chinese factory? This is not a quality related question, I was just curious.

I bought all the different colours of the Minifigure stand, and they look great with all 4 series of CMF.

Same, mine also had the Technic Flatbed Truck for $148.

The Death Star, one of my best purchases ever.

I only just bought a DS from him, very good seller, my box did have creases but nothing worse than what I've seen at Big W.

Just wanting to know if anyone has seen the larger Hero Factory sets in any stores, not the small 6 Heroes.

I just found out, that the Red Cargo Train will be available exclusively from Myer later this year.

I already bought the Hoth Echo Base and Naboo Starfighter, off Bricklink from South Korea, on Friday, for US$208, (AU$194) express shipping inclusive (arrived today). $170 is ridiculous for that set, no one in their right mind would pay the Australian RRP.

Hoth Echo Base and Naboo Starfighter, both good sets.

Haha, good one Siegfried, love it, and Oky, yours were great.

That's funny my Big W had all six of them but they were $14.64.
