75098 - UCS: Assault on Hoth

[Manse1001]

True.  Set is still and uninspiring terd, though.

Uninspiring to an AFOL maybe but not necessarily to a child... Yes I prefer looking at the Sandcrawler on my shelf but after 5 minutes my son is bored with playing it. Whereas Hoth and EV he will play with for hours. Lego have to target two markets Adults and Children, whereas complex ships are great to build and display but lack play factor. As mentioned earlier, I wonder if people would resent it as much if it was labelled a UCS. Don't get me wrong, I didn't rate this set initially but now owning it and see how it can be set up and played with my initial views have changed somewhat.

For what is worth my LEGO Shop at Home 30% off unit had 44S7 seals. As some where alluding my unit did not have a perfect box and might have been a return but very likely it will be built.

Watch from minure 12 of this video for details of the AoH debacle. Apparently it was delayed and that´s one of the reasons the AT AT was in the manual and there were very few attacking minifigs.

I sold the 1 i bought on super discount the second it "retired" and poofed on Amazon for 320. 

Stumbled upon this being in stock a month ago. Got all wide-eyed, "easy 50$... errr" ... wont consider this unless its 40% off and i'll flip it then

I still have two left of my original eight I got at almost 50% off. Still can't sell these last two, even below original retail price....
