eracine Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I got caught up in the moment with the 4th. I fear my kids have high levels of Midi Chlorian! Quote
Grolim Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 It is a very nice set. Have been tempted to grab one for myself, but might hold out for a decent sale. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 It is a very nice set. Have been tempted to grab one for myself, but might hold out for a decent sale. That's what I would do too. I just happened to have $55 in VIP points So it ended up costing a lot less. Plus some gift cards! Quote
exciter1 Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I got caught up in the moment with the 4th. I fear my kids have high levels of Midi Chlorian! That's awesome, they could be the chosen ones. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 That's awesome, they could be the chosen ones. Why? We all know what happened to the previous so called "chosen one" ;-) Quote
folmarm Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 It is a very nice set. Have been tempted to grab one for myself, but might hold out for a decent sale. Is 50% off next May too much to ask? Quote
TheDarkness Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Is 50% off next May too much to ask? I think it will sell way better than the B-Wing Quote
Huskers1236 Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Don't think you'll be seeing the X-Wing go on sale on Lego.com, ever. OK, maybe 10% when it's about to die. Our only hope is that it goes out to the Walmarts and Amazons of the world and we see some decent discounts on it. I'm going to buy one to build regardless, but as for investments, going to wait on it for a while. Quote
mudcatsfan Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Completely agree. This set was an awesome build and is so impressive in person. Must be seen to be believed. Absolutely love this set!!!! Quote

I'm going to buy one to build regardless, but as for investments, going to wait on it for a while. Well the B-wing is at Walmart so perhaps the X-wing will follow in a few months. If it does I expect sale prices as well as my own extra 10% off.....so we may see the $150 price point. Quote
Studebricker Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 I guess it's cool, but to me it falls into the rehash category, so that's a notch down from an actual all-new set. I just think they could have done something better for a UCS ship instead of another retread. Where's the UCS Tie Fighter for the past 15 years, Lego, hmmmmmm? Thank you! Quote
TheOrcKing Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Where's the UCS Tie Fighter for the past 15 years, Lego, hmmmmmm? I honestly do not get why Lego still has not done the regular TIE Fighter as a UCS style set. Yes, the X-Wing is iconic but so is the Empire standard TIE Fighter darn it! Quote
MartinP Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 The 10240 Red Five X-Wing Fighter, in my opinion, is a amazing set. What do you think? Is it a cool set? Is it fun to build? What is your favorite aspect of this set? Is it a great investment? Quote
Maverick2k1 Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/1928-10240-red-five-x-wing-starfighter/page-5?hl=10240 Here is the thread where most people discussed their initial thoughts on the ucs x-wing. I think you'll get mixed feelings on this one. Quote
thetamp Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 If I buy 10240 from Lego.com do I get the "I love NY" Yoda? if not how do I get that one? Quote
Diabolos80 Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 That figure was a limited edition available only through certain promotions, which are now over. The only way to get him now is on ebay. Sorry :( 1 Quote
MartinP Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Should I build or keep for investment? The set came out a while ago, so I would build it. When the set is near EOL, I would buy one for investment. Quote
sadowsk1 Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 What made you buy it originally? Go with that reason. Quote
cobi Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 What made you buy it originally? Go with that reason. Impulse buy, but I keep looking at it in my inventory Quote
TheOrcKing Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 I take it you already purchased the set? Well, if you plan on getting another for investment later on then build the one you have. I am certain it will be a good investment only you would be sitting on it for a while now as in a few years perhaps. Quote
srm_520 Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Build it. It'll go on sale in the future so you can get another one. Quote
cobi Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Great I will go ahead and build. What do you think about the Millennium Falcon? Build or save? Quote
