  2. I so wish they titled it: Star Wars: Rogue One and not the cheesy sounding Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

  3. Can anyone confirm whether or not "Rogue One" is a reference to Forest Whitaker's eye?

  7. Should have kept the purchase and used the feedback mechanism to voice your concerns. Does wonders to if you leave them a 1 out of 10 and tell them their service stunk.

  10. Lol they knew they would have to show some fighting scenes when they brought Donnie Yen in. Otherwise Disney is going to make a lot of his fans angry. What's wrong with fighting with stick? Rey fought with a stick in movie 7

  16. I'm glad to see the Internet already jumping to conclusions about this film by viewing 1:30 of footage. December can't get here fast enough.

  17. I would but I sold my last one 3 weeks ago already at $350. This must be how the Empire can afford to build so many Death Stars. Selling military surplus in Like New condition. Now Timmy will pay the price for his lack of vision.

  20. The teaser is similar to the Force Awakens #1 teaser in that it just gave a little information, but not a whole lot and definitely doesn't give a lot of information to where you feel like you have the entire plot of the movie, like so many trailers out there. I like that Disney does this, but the trailer left me a little bit cold too. A few scenes in this make me cringe. One is the martial arts guy whacking a storm trooper with a stick with all the others troopers surrounding him. Hopefully this is just some training regime, because it just seems out of place and not like Star Wars. The other scene is with Forest Whittaker character. Leaves you wondering what he is, and it just seems like that should be left out. Regardless, i'll still be there opening day, in IMAX, first show, in the middle part of the theatre!

  22. I appreciate articles like these. They help condense the loads of information available on this site. But I do worry that new investors (or the “investor-curious”) can get unrealistic expectations when reviewing a list of Lego sets that have increased in value “50% to 130% in the past six months”. It is repeated time and again in the forum and other blogs, but cannot be stressed enough: These theoretical returns are far from the reality for most of us. I feel lucky that I have at least half of this list in my inventory, but still I’m not overly excited about the returns so far. Take into account shipping costs, ebay fees, etc, and the profits are not so amazing. For 31025 Mountain Hut and 75034 D.S. Troopers, I might make $1 or $2 profit on each one if bought and sold at the prices shown here. On the 75030 Microfighter and 75049 Snow Speeder, I might earn $5 each. I would need a whole walk-in closet stacked full of these sets to pay for a nice dinner out. After shipping and fees, actual net profits on these are closer to 5% - 30%. Of course, 75054 AT-AT, 75055 ISD, and 76023 The Tumbler could turn a nice $50 profit on each one if sold today. And 70810 The Sea Cow will easily put $100 in my pocket. That’s fantastic. All of the sets on this list have done very well over the last six months. But keep in mind, I – and many other investors – didn’t buy these sets six months ago. Most have been in my inventory for over a year, which of course, dilutes our returns even further.

  23. I broke down and bought The Maze last night, along with a Kanan Speeder Bike to get the freebie. The more good reports that come out, the more I've been wanting The Maze. I'll build it after work sometime and set it on my conference table for the guys to tinker with when they are in my office.

  26. Good choice. Really enjoyed the build although I haven't successfully completed the game yet. The box and build were bigger than I expected. Well worth the money, I hope LEGO Shop at Home raises the limit on this set once it's been out for a while as it's certainly a set I'd want to give as a gift.

  27. It is weird watching a SW movie trailer with no lightsabers, Jedi or Sith .

  28. That was my thinking as well. And it was a mom selling off her kids Lego collection that was no longer being played with. I already got it and it's about 100lbs (I don't have a scale but each box feels to be no lighter than 20 lbs). And out of two boxes that I've sorted so far- there's maybe 2lbs of minfigs and accessories ranging from Harry Potter, spongebob, Star Wars, dinosaurs, and random city people. Plus there's a decent amout of partial builds that will be helpful to look up online and see what sets I can try to find within the lot, one being part of a Harry Potter set. I can't wait to get to the other 3 boxes tonight and sort!

  41. Sometimes, you may want to go into your account and verify if it's on a $$$ amount purchase or certain type of product. Add some stuff to your cart and you should see the points available if they apply.

  42. Two best scenes of the trailer. Those of you with a #10030 should do well with this. Death Star should get a nice boost as well. I love the scale compared to the Death Star.
