maestro Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The Australian version of the 2015 LEGO Summer Catalog shows Lego Large Scale Buildable Figures. Is this a Lego 1st? Valuable even to the fans only of the Original Trilogy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maestro Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Now I see. Vader only could sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoroakenfelder Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I see maybe picking these upon clearance. I foresee a lot of them a bunch of them clogging up shelf space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I foresee a lot of them a bunch of them clogging up shelf space.these will sell just fine ... they look really well and are now action figures ... lego style ... dont see these being shelf warmers at all! they also look great displayed on a AFOLs desk!

pete411 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I'm all over the Vader and New Order Stormtrooper sets when they come out. These are going to sell like crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These types of sets never seem to sell that well, unless I missed something where all of the Super Heroes I saw lingering on shelves were actually being continuously refreshed. Star Wars collectors have a variety of more accurate options that they tend to flock towards. AFOLs probably don't want to get into a different set of parts that won't interact with their current collections. They'll sell ok at first and Vader and the Trooper will get refreshes, but everything else will probably be slow movers. Long term, look to the majority of Hero Factory, knights kingdom or Super Hero large figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISO8T0 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I think that when my boys see these they will forget about Hero Factory.(this is going to be an expensive investment year. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Mack Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Nothing to see here. Move along people. These sets are terrible. Poor investments. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazuli16 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I'm so conflicted. They look great and they're star wars, so theoretically they should great investments; however the DC version's aren't/didn't do so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grynn Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I think they generally look great.GG is actually my favorite, aesthetically, with Vader and Cody not far behind. Jango really made me think of the Clone Wars TV series, Obi-Wan seems to have been hitting the gym, and sadly Luke does have a few issues. But he will sell just fine given his return in Episode VII, not to mention generally being the guy who "finally" defeated evil in the galaxy.

Batman and The Green Lantern have a CAGR over 30%. Joker is at 15%. Plus many of these were bought at major discounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacoCat Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I think General Grievous looks awesome! He may not end up being the investment winner of the bunch, but they did the best job on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locutus001 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I don't see these sets as a big hit investmentwise. But for MOCers they might hold some nice pieces! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Yeah agreed, terrible investments. Buy anything else but these people, seriously, I mean it. Anything. Else. But. These... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaylay Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 These are super poseable. Better than a standard action figure. Larger. What's not to like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Brule Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I'm a big fan of Bandai's new Star Wars model kits. I guess that's why these don't appeal to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zskid00 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I'm not crazy about the non-helmeted human characters, but Grievous, Vader, Cody, Jango, and the E7 Trooper will be mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think General Obi-Wan from the Clone Wars look ok thanks to the beard and cape. Now Luke on the other hand, his only advantage was the handcuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
