jaxman Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I only have one 10188. Wasn't planning on selling it anytime soon anyways. Once the dust settles I'll probably sell it and buy the new Castle with the proceeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I really wish this to be a ruse by LEGO to stave off the copycats and find the source of the leaks. Not because I'm sitting on a squadron of 10188s (i'm not) but because I can only imagine the fun currently being had at TLG if it were true.

They are having plenty of fun watching the resellers squirm I assure you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TargetZero Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) Anyway, Lego is too much hoarded. People having 0 interest in the brick are investing in it. I mean 0 interest. never poped a seal,. never did a UCS. never did ****. That's why its all about buy in price now. They will always be good opportunities, but harder work maybe. For me, investing in some exclusif...is not worth it. I prefer 50% or more discount on regular sets. I. But not very likely to be found easely.... I mean i can have a tumbler for 350$CDN now, it's only a 80$ profits.. on 229+Tx... Even at 400$ on ebay.. minus fees... about 80$ profits. on 265$ here with taxes.... don't have that time to lose. I like doubling my cash by doing MSRP price + or - so i can get double cash in And was is lego suposed to do with remakes? I would be shocked if they arent doing the UCS falcon soon. The thing is 5000$. It will sales has hot cakes, has nobody own them(well almost everyone i know don'T have one) I am pretty sure lego receive on a daily base email for a UCS falcon to be re-release. those are classic, and they cannot miss that opportunity in my opinion. Why? Because fans wants it. Edited August 18, 2016 by TargetZero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's an elaborate ruse by emazers to get rid of the competition 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labfreak7 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Is that picture confirmed or is it a joke? Looks exactly like the old DS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DadsAFOL Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 So it appears that the extra 200 pieces are a TIE Fighter. There is a new leaked picture circulating and it's got a TIE flying through the picture on the front of the box. Similar to this but less pieces...

labfreak7 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I find it very hard to believe TLG would simply redo the old version by changing the minifigs and adding a tie fighter. I'm not buying it.It looks fake to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanfjr Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Fine I guess I will choose the other team: I am going to buy it, I didn't get the first one, so no excuse for me not to buy it, minifigs so detailed & sweet they make all other SW figs look like Lepin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickLegacy Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 A few observations of the leaked pics. Front: I noticed the gold line at the bottom angles up and not parallel with the Disney logo? Zoom in further and you see some inconsistencies with the black background around the set # and also where the Star Wars logo overlaps the laser. VIP brochure: Photoshop edit over the Star Wars logo. That's not a professional graphic. I'll let the graphic designers on the forum take a closer look but it appears the jury is still out folks. Who likes drama?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether the box is fake or not, 75159 is a remake, based on every source out there, with proven reliability.

LOLOr get baited and lose lots of money. Lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
