Hope u or who ever owns the sets got them on a discount or free to get so many too early in the game. And please dont stack them like that for long periods of time.

Are you sure?

Because this is the next Mars Rover. Really. You need to follow along better Greg. I'm not going to hold your hand every time.

People sure do have a lot of time

I know you guys joke about cheese slopes, but seriously, this has got to be absolutely fake. For one, outside of a few cosmetic changes, this 'fake' is almost a carbon copy of 10179. Secondly, I know Lego likes to add a bunch of smaller pieces, but there's no way they added almost 2500 pieces to basically a carbon copy...

This is neither an RI or Exo-suit. This box is much bigger. [emoji6]

Walmart has them in stock again $112.95 https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Ideas-21309-NASA-Apollo-Saturn-V/55231379

That piece in the lower left box looks wrong (appears to lack symmetry). And as if I even needed to mention it, the jpeg encoding algorithm is all over the place on this one.

Stickers confirmed:

Good to see you fixed those minifigs up

I got them for about $101 w/ tax included. "Why so many?" What are we doing here?? Is this some Sunday paper chase or are we trying to go to the throat & corner the market?? What I'm going to do with them is sell them so I can buy 1,000 The Louvre before it retires. Easiest was to flip $41k into $100k.

Unless there's a solid plan, it will be posted in "what sets will you take to the grave" thread in few years...

You get your bread at S@H and your butter everywhere else.

As long as the item wasn't damaged and the advertised shipping service was used, I'd never leave negative feedback for that or complain to the seller.

So disappointed they aren't continuing the classic minifigure box series. Previous three were al offered as a promo in July, so I don't think we'll get one this year. They could have done a Western themed one or Adventurers or something. Or just classic Town.

Buyer beware!

Reddit is the Brian Williams of the internet.

Rumored for 2018:

Quint approves!

Seriously. I will never fathom how this is a consistent issue for a company of their size in 2017. In for 1, got my order in.

Looks like the cockpit from set 75105 was pasted over the 10179 cockpit. It does not look right. Definitely a fake.

Shop.Lego.com, thanks for reaching a new level of turrible tonight. I'm going to bed...

one of my best ebay message exchanges ever. we can't even make this stuff up. total fruitcake. happened 3 months ago. i was the buyer for a diagon alley set. - Sent by me at 7:47pm. "Hi. I just paid and did read your auction summary, A couple of missing pieces is fine. I take it that all minifigures are included? I also assume the lego retail box will mailed inside a shipping box for protection. Please let me know me know before mailing this set. Thanks," - seller's reply 11:34pm - "Dip those on some oil the shlt will get you faint" - my follow-up 12:24am- "What?" - seller's reply 6:07am - "I am so sorry for that message I was under the influence last night and I confused my eBay messages with my text messages. I would like to apologize for saying those words to you" - seller's reply 6:09am - "Yes it's all in the box and it will packaged as well" ha ha

Non English speaker, leaving positive feedback, but not quite spelling “nicely wrapped" correctly. The w and second p, make all the difference.

This is one of my favorite sets I've ever built. And I've built a few. Additionally, the display value is tops.

you mean blast off from LEGO Shop at Home??

The registration for the Wonder Woman Brickheadz build thingamabobber sounds like a cluster french.

This makes me smile. Not a crooked smile, mind you.

In true TLG fashion they will release young Boba holding his dad's 75107 head.

Really to those that thought it wouldn't be like this, I say tough cookie. I completely expected this and it's why I hunted day and day out to look for this prior to release. So glad I managed to get my two. My Dad was at a Barnes and Noble yesterday and they still had their two. Today gone. Everywhere I look it's sold out now, quite the wide distribution net on release date as well. I tried to tell people on Reddit, but just got the cold shoulder that nah, this won't be hard to find.

Nice work, Fakey McFakerson. At least you spelled "Millennium" correctly.

Yeah, we'll see if it ships though. I ordered 20...curious what you and Exciter ordered?

Very interesting. I did receive Order Acknowledgment and Order Confirmation emails.

The Battle Pods

This morning I almost ordered one from Amazon. I get paid tomorrow. I have the Prime Rewards Visa Card so 5% back is nice. But @Phil B is right, this likely will be available for awhile and will be discounted eventually. So for today, I will stay my hand. Plus, gotta pay off those credit cards.

Talking about inconsistencies, the cockpit clearly was taken from another image at a different angle.

As promise, an update! So with my girlfriend we took it all appart. Some pieces are new, but not all are. some looks veeeeery old and time has work it's dark magic on those little bricks... You can see here the two bottom piece being new and the two top one being yellowed by time... Here the difference is so important, but I think those old gear are Old Light grey and not light bluish grey like the gear on the left... Here it's clearly some old grey... well, I was buying some parts anyway so Now I've sorted all the parts, I need to update my inventory on the wanted list I made on bricklink and then I'll know what remains to buy... I already bought the sticker for 45 euros, it was the cheapest listing on bricklink and the seller was only selling stickers so that was taken care of. One happy surprise is the Windscreen was in the blue box, Yay! Now I have to find a way to un-yellowed all those old pieces to see if I can give them their long forgotten smooth feeling. ?

There's not enough cheese slopes, so it must be a fake.

Still no rectangular radar dish tho

The cockpit looks different compared to 10179. hmmm. Interesting.

If that is a fake, it's a much better one.

To build a bigger rocket, of course.

This set needs Scully, Yorku, Scully's catch of the day, and the Barnacle from Summer Rental.

Just finished this beauty today. I was very surprised that it took me 17 hours to build it, but it was great fun.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised by the price.
