  1. For better or worse I started a LEGO Star Wars Pricing Discussion thread. Hopefully that will help alleviate said types of comments from this thread for good.
  2. Alright so what may have years ago seemed like an unnecessary idea for a thread has quickly become much needed. The 2016 rumor thread continually spills into discussions of TLG's increasing prices for SW sets and that's unfortunately going nowhere as people will bring said complaints up, legitimate or otherwise, in inappropriate threads. Therefore to divert such comments from other threads, for your pleasure dear EB reader, the Lego SW price discussion thread. My one suggested rule which is already apart of EB's rules, so really it's not a suggestion but a reminder: Please keep comments civil and do not go after each other. Everyone here has a right to voice their opinion about price inflation and as this is the internet we do not know each other's circumstances. The person replying may be living in a van down by the river in his or her tightie whities with only an internet connection and a device as a commodity. Also don't come to this thread to complain about people complaining, this a thread for discussion. Since this seems to be a point of recent contention why don't we kick the thread off with 75158: Rebel Combat Frigate $109.99 USD and equivalent international prices. Reasonable or overpriced?
  3. What say you Adone Inzerillo? What say you Amelto Inzerillo? (sorry I am still touring around with my British Friends. I don't wish to vote until i've read what's already been posted)
  4. Four figures with only two being new is inexcusable for a set this small and this expensive.
  5. Okay so I cant say I understand how we got a second Ultimato last night but that is amazing we got two! Considering the game is still going I imagine there must be one final remaining ultimato? This is where things get tricky. Just as the final two snails in my snail fights, they are cornered and will attack with the ferocity and agility of an angered snail! I did not act last night as I do not have a night action unfortunately. Saying that does however put somewhat of a target on my back.
  6. I hope so because i'm actually very interested in possibly buying the set now.
  7. I need Whittier's iconic wonky eye in mini figure form! Seriously though the lower prices suddenly make all of the sets seem that much more reasonable to purchase. Still I won't get my hopes up yet until we get something more official. Rogue One will probably not be as big as the Force Awakens but we will have to wait and see how much traffic the first real trailer (not teaser) gets on youtube to gauge popularity.
  8. I'm curious to how stable the Original Series Enterprise is? I could see the nacelles drooping be a serious issue for display reasons at that size. Unless MB somehow managed to give it some sort of strong internal skeleton.
  9. Back in my day we get a weird ball, feathers, and googley eyes and we liked it!
  10. Heres my thing if we were to hypothetically lynch (jluck) and it turns out hes a villager it would take us an additional day to lynch (mediumsnowman). In that time the ultimatio could take out another villager so by the next vote we would be down two people. Then the voting block needed to vote someone out would be five? If there are three or two ultimatio (is that the number in these size games?) they would have significantly more power. Do we take the risk and go ahead and lynch (jluck) on the offchance (mediumsnowman) is telling the truth? I honestly dont think (mediumsnowman) would be so stupid as to wish to pin a target on his back by stating himself to be a rolecop or tracker if he was not. If (mediumsnowman) is an ultimatio planting the seeds of chaos and destruction amongst us theres only one way to find out for sure. This may be stupid, i may be really tired from a long day of touring in the east coast heat but im going to take a chance... Vote: Frank Johnson (jluck) *sorry I will use character names next post. Im on my cellphone touring my visiting british friends around my city and we're all just finally taking a serious break.
  11. Aye Carumba! We need to find these asesinos faster then me running from my brother in law in Tijuana that one time I traded his chihuahua for a Jarrito. How do we know we can trust Señor Johnson senior (mediumsnowman) about the other Señor Johnson (jluck)? Takes some real juevos to reveal a role so soon when we all know so little. I suppose the only way we could discover the truth is if we lynched the younger Señor Johnson, however we risk killing an innocent. If that were to happen we would know absolutely Señor Johnson was one of the scum and subsequently could kill him. however if the younger Señor is in fact mafia and we lynch him then it's a win. I'm not sure...
  12. Dark tan pants with boots are actually in the upcoming all female Ecto 1 & 2 Ghostbusters set although with printing
  13. What bothers me about cars isnt the story or the idea. Its their eyes. I could never get over the fact that Pixar made the design choice to make the eyes the windshield and not the front lights (sorry I live in an area with amazing public transportation so I know little about cars.) When I look at a car in real life the front lights and grill or front bumper always look like a face to me. I know that has been done before in cartoons but hey I think thats what works the best. Otherwise I never disliked cars, I will admit I sortve liked the first one but ive never been inclined to rewatch it a second time.
  14. From what ive come to understand they arent changing scenes or shortening battles or anything. They are filming additional scenes that are for character building within the scenes they have already.
  15. Correct! Your turn!
  16. Sleepy Hollow
  17. Bingo! Haha that scene though
  18. You're a true man of the people...or day either or
  19. A Wing Pilot Polybag found at LEGOLAND California!
  20. Darn you day man!
  21. Disney made a billion dollars off of last Force Friday so I believe they are probably going to do it again. I feel like i've read that they were before as well.
