Looks like that copper head just ate. You're def lucky you didn't get bit. If you had been bit I think you would have won BP's first Darwin award.

Great little set. Built it up at the cottage with the family and everyone loved it.

U need an override , a helpful person or the hxckid looks

I would honestly pass on all of those.

OMG HOLD ME. Leicester Sq. The display was opened for about 3 minutes to make some additional adjustments on the ship positioning, some Mutterficker sneaked from behind to steal both rear masts from the ship.

Finished Old Fishing Store, and it went perfectly on the mantle:

Yes. They ship out the good boxes first and end with the worst box conditions. So we should see retirement in a month.

Looks like a "no selections" review to me.

I've def won't be handling any more snakes. Feeling pretty damn lucky. May pick up a couple powerball tix in the morning.

Not falling for that crap again. Hated last year's

The only thing supraboy builds are magical sorting baskets and stacks of hotcakes.

I think it's the best looking set..However, it's way overpriced. $110 is ridiculous. $80....maybe $90 max.

Always a purchase required during their week. Then you can buy any left overs for $20 the following week. Or you can buy them from me. I'll sell you one for $20 You'll save the money on tax =)

Yup here we go....324 pieces to retro fit a bare minimum decent build from 2009's 10179 Maybe more maybe less.... sigh? But hey...it gives us somthin to Do ...wouldn't be the first time us lego fans don't correct a SnaFU!! ???

All of them are awesome except the City one. The recoloured CMF ones are a surprise, I love them! Apparently the Batman one is available online for $15 but it's EU only or something, can't ship to USA. I don't want to buy anything at TRU... so.. idk how I'm gonna get these

Well, at least TLBM set is cool.

Yup definitely a copperhead. Juveniles have the yellow tail which goes away as they age. Juvies are pretty docile but adults a little more aggressive. They are pretty but I only use a snake stick to handle them. Thanks for sharing and glad you didn't get bitten.

Star Wars geekism sinks to a new all-time low as people debate the merits of a spaceship´s rear end.

Hey moderators is there a way to have tabbyboys current feeling on this set replacing the poll at the top? Haven't been on in a minute so catching up on this and for a week every other page is a post from him saying how he's going to buy 3- 1 to open, 1 to keep, and 1 to sell after retirement to help pay for the others. A few hours ago he changed that to only buying 1. Then a couple hours ago he changed that to maybe buying none. Maybe his opinion could be on the ticker on the front page?

Who sells LEGO? I thought we were just supposed to horde it...

Finished the Silent Mary last night

love bb8 set. the head rotation and the little arm coming out are smooth and fun. didnt actually get to build it as son would not allow me to. he was cool with me paying for it though.

Finished Mirko's U-Wing. I think this rivals the Nebulon.

I don't know if I was dreaming or what but I could have sworn I saw a post where someone preordered a UCS falcon for a May the 4th celebration this year. I searched everywhere (here, shopathome) and came up with nothing though.

Flip? This is a personal build

Yeah, same here. I'm not a fan or buyer of this set as a collector.

I was thinking along same lines as you. If order goes through online, may still hit up the store and be there around 8am or so. I am not quite as inpatient as I use to be so if I don't get it day 1, it won't matter.

i agree. pic from last page here and another one from google.

Surprisingly it does sell though, saw one sell last week on a local adverts site for €20 cash and as soon as it sold another person was on asking for one. It is crap though, especially when compared to the Gingerbread House, Christmas Train or Snow Globe. Hoping for something like that again this year.

These six sets have qualified for the Second 2017 review round. Personally I think the only submission that has a minor chance to actually get officially made is the Wonders of Peru set, and even that set doesn't have any appeal to me. I Am Your Father --> Star Wars property, so not going to happen. Space Shuttle --> Done before, so not going to happen. Saturn V launch tower --> Not a standalone set but linked to another Ideas set. Not going to happen. NF-15B --> Another jet plane, like the Red Arrows Hawk submission. Not going to get approved. Gilmore Girls --> Like The Big Bang Theory, but bigger, more detailed, and more expensive. Highly doubtful LEGO will do such a set again.

The first thing I'm gonna do when I bring this Set home is Take master woo's head and put him right on the radar Dish...

You mean just like they "approved" the GB firehouse to go with the Ecto-1?

I hate people every day...Then some people surprise me and give me hope. On the missing pieces...now it really looks bad. LOL

So I took a local visit to the Lego store. Figured I'd post a few pics. Haven't had a chance to read through the thread but the Lego employee told me that essentially the new Lego VIP card will be given out with each Falcon purchase (New OR existing members) It will come with special promotions throughout the year focused primarily on Star Wars Legos. Your existing card and membership will still work. Kind of a cool concept.

14 sets to be exact..... I drive between Monterrey and San antonio quite often.... I just adjusted work to get there on Thursday night ( had to pick the Saturn that day) , and be early Friday in the store for Force Day..... I took the family and had a good time in the Store friday..... they had Star Wars characters.... A Scarif Stormtrooper and an astromech , a black one, I do not know the name of it.... really cool...

Ok here's a nice pic I thought would give perspective to accuracy ... this is from marshal banana's flicker page... although it's been said in this chat that marshals version us not a "mini fig" scale, I tend to disagree based on the fact marshal was limited to the old canopy mold on his Build ...but the proportions are all the same... based on the new canopy Mold released in the 75192 set...I believe marshal will further refine his Falcon based on his post and this pic he posted... but I think it's a nice comparison overall in the pic

it tells me u need a better resolution

That it's in stock.

Tie striker at 52.99. They have 15. https://www.costco.ca/Lego-Star-Wars-TIE-Striker.product.100327063.html Batwing also dropped a bit to 86.99 https://www.costco.ca/Lego-Batman-–-The-Batwing.product.100351357.html

That was quick shipping

Day or 2 ago. Red drum. About 30"

Finally built the 10244 Fairground Mixer and to celebrate it's Grand Opening it was Star Wars Day! The lines were long: Chewbecca was playing a game,: Emperor Palpatine was in a good mood waiting for his turn in the dunk tank: Father and son were enjoying an ice cream: The tall man was there: And with a temporary peace across the galaxy fun was had by all. I did not know how to embed the video: MOV00048.MPG

I have to say, I'm not blown away. small station, random vehicle and 4 pieces of track.

Yep, like my blonde hair? Just brushed it...

I finished my Tantive IV 10198, and it exceeded my expectations. I have had my eyes open for a good deal on a Rebel Blockade Runner 10019, but haven't come across one at a price that I can stomach yet. In the meantime, this set was awesome. If you have one and are thinking about building it or if you have been thinking about getting one, I highly recommend it!
