IrishGuy66 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 The title says it all, pictures of this set have finally leaked out. Sorry about the image being so fuzzy, I wasn't able to make a link to the actual site. It's just on Brickipedia though if you want to see it on there. Any thoughts about this set? I personally think it looks the business from a collectors standpoint, but am not sure what an investor might think of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davelin Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looks cool but not sure how expanded universe stuff will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishGuy66 Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looks cool but not sure how expanded universe stuff will do. From a collector's standpoint I buy expanded universe sets like candy! I can never get enough of them! The Rogue Shadow, Striker Class, lots more, and now this!!! Pretty soon I'm gonna have to buy a bigger shelf!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see one in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 No one else thinks the BLUE stormtrooper looks lame!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studebricker Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I don't know the story that this ship or characters come from so I don't automatically think it's lame, but I'm sure some people will, just because. I bet kids will think it's cool, and that's really all that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 As dumb as the blue stormtrooper is, the engines on the wingtips look sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 No one else thinks the BLUE stormtrooper looks lame!?! They do seem a little ridiculous to me, but this is probably because we are so used to seeing white ones. Also the blue ones are 100% unique, which can help boost value. Blue looks nice, kind of. If it were dark gray, or shadow troopers, I would love this set a whole lot more. Any idea of the target price of the set will be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I would probably choose the 9497 Republic Striker-class Starfighter over this one since the price point is lower, and fairly similar, ignoring the figs.

Blackjack Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 So I know I've been BS'ing too much about the new Lego Club Magazine, but here's something else I found. JEK-14's Stealth Starfighter is from.......... THE YODA CHRONICLES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcarin Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I like the Design overall, wonder what the price tag will be in my country... probably 49.99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Do things cost more or less there, because in the U.S. it is $70... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcarin Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Do things cost more or less there, because in the U.S. it is $70... Well my crazy Slovenia shops are such stealers...
