Agreed. And to make matters worse, they've recycled the sale banner from overseas stating "Star Wars deals" (plural) when there is barely only one deal here (the polybag).

Hey guys, short time collector, first time investor here, looking for a quick bit of advice. Having only just got back into Lego and buying waayy too much for the collection already, was thinking of buying a few extras to offset the cost. The first item I thought might be worthwhile taking the plunge on: Benny's Spaceship, $104. Reasonable?

Some really strong and a couple not so much. 1) I personally think they've done a great job with the molded heads, with Donald Duck probably the standout. (if it makes you feel better, imagine they are minifig heads wearing a costume like at the parks). 2) Peter Pan, Ursula (best in series!!), Hook, Aladdin, Ariel, Maleficent all fantastic. 3) Alice odd face, Mr Incredible looks too small (give him kid legs and he could almost be Dash...). 4) For comparison, most of these have appeared (or are planned) in Disney Infinity, so are obviously the sort of characters Disney is happy to push. So I would look there for ideas of what might be in a Series 2. The exceptions are mainly characters that can't work gameplay-wise in Infinity (namely the aquatic Ariel/Ursula, or Genie). Plus a surprise more obscure or generic option (Cheshire Cat and Alien).

Hi all. Thought I'd help keep this thread going. Brisbane, QLD. Just out of my 20 year dark ages as of Dec 2015. The set that did it: UCS Slave 1. Already purchased far more than I ever owned as a kid. Collecting at the moment rather than investing, for now. Happy to share in the general sales news etc.
