The UCS R2-D2, set 10225 is now on sale at lego's website This is one of best of the UCS Star Wars sets I have encountered, if not one of the best Lego sets I have ever seen.

Check out the Lego video!

As an investment, this set will no doubt kick @$$! I can't wait to buy one...or two... ;-)

I ordered this set on the May the 4th promotion and just got around to building it. I can say it is an impressive set, looks great and displays very well. Even non SW LEGO fans are buying this set and it should be a good investment down the road.

You know it's going to be a successful set when even non-Star Wars fans buy one. LOL

Very true, the word "iconic" gets used quite a bit these days for some rather mundane things, but in this instance it is 100% appropriate as virtually everyone knows, recognizes, and likes R2D2!

I have the TARGET R2-D2 DISPLAY and loved the Lego replica that was its centerpiece. I always wondered why Lego never made a R2-D2 model. Now I'm upset that my R2-D2 display piece will lose value because every Tom, **** and Harry will have one. ;-(

When I was at a Lego store in 8/2012 I saw this set for the 1st time and I thought it was pretty awesome. I've been surprised that I haven't seen it discussed more. I am interested in what the Brickpicker community thinks of this set for investment. Any reason to think it would be a boom? A bust? Thoughts?

Love the set. Really a piece of well engineered LEGO bricks. As with any UCS set, it will get love after it goes EOL.

IrishGuy66 and I talked about that earlier. Remember that? (:

I know, I know but there is "fools gold" out there too.

Well if your lookin for fools gold here, your in the wrong place! Believe me two bills might seem like a lot, (Who am I kidding of course it's a lot of money!) but when this set goes EOL, your money will double!!

I seem to remember reading somewhere after the original Star Wars that Lucas was surprised that C3-PO and R2-D2 were the leaders in terms of merchandise sales. My feeling is that will we will see the same type of love for this set.

I missed it when the set was under $140 in 12/2012--I won't miss it next time!!
