You nailed just how I feel. It's way too easy to say anything on the net. As for those who claim they've got this, I highly doubt it. Not a single picture of box or polybags is out there. Anyways as I said earlier, I've recreated both sets and will review them shortly. I forgot some essential pieces when ordering from BL (the wheels, the wrong skeleton head), so it'll be a few days before the sets are complete.

The one in the box is the same Vader as the one in the Death Star (Set#10188) The extra is part of a PR stunt and 85000 will be handed out at different places in the world. So no-can't-do about the chrome Vader being in the box.

Are you on speed? Slow down and please add some . & , You're losing me (and possibly a few others around here). Also using "enter" and capitol letters might aid the rest of us in learning what you're actually saying.

2008 Castle sets according to bricklink.com 5614-1 (Inv) The Good Wizard 5615-1 (Inv) The Knight 5618-1 (Inv) Troll Warrior 7037-1 (Inv) Tower Raid 7038-1 (Inv) Troll Assault Wagon 7040-1 (Inv) Dwarves' Mine Defender 7041-1 (Inv) Troll Battle Wheel 7048-1 (Inv) Troll Warship 852271-1 (Inv) Battle Pack Knights 852272-1 (Inv) Battle Pack Skeletons And then there's the large Chess set as well. Getting 10+ sets in 2009 is possible. Getting elve elf/elves in 2010 is possible. All we know is that we wont get any in 2009. But then again we might be getting full chrome dragons in 2010 just as likely as elves. What we really need is some confirmable info.

Nice job for a first movie. Did the members whose MOCs you're depicting allow you to use their work? Also I fail to see how this is more than just an indirect commercial on thecabg.net But maybe you're looking for comments on how you did the video and so forth. Which means that this is a video technique and technical question. So I'll move this to the LEGO News & General Discussion.

I agree with Ras. This is a good midnette (or bignette). Some nice details, especially the rock as mentioned is well done. I'll be sure to add this to the MOC index later.

Everyone's happy? What about this guy, he doesn't look too happy to me: In fact he looks scared. Would he rather had gotten the PS3?

First post has been updated with some more prices. This time in GBP. Thanks to ADHO15 for the info.

Juhuu. The grey equipment has finally become black and will blend in much better with the blasters.

Wow. Thanks for the info LEGOscum. 85,000 sure is a lot of those.

Which is odd. I've bought 3 calendars this year and 2 last year and none had missing parts. Perhaps you'd better check those polybags an extra time

LEGO Customer service doesn't always have all the answers. I recall of them calling the Chrome Black Vader a fake

C'mon guys. If these were real, then we'd have polybag or boxshots all over brickset, bricklink and brickshelf. Noone has ever seen a boxshot. All we've ever seen is the picture from the instructions in LEGO's cache. So let go of your promotional dream. These sets were never produced. The next one to say so, better have the box or polybag to back up his/her words.

Welcome to Eurobricks.

Velkommen til Kristian. Altid rart at have endnu en dansker her. Kig dig omkring og spørg endelig, hvis der er noget du gerne vil vide.

:laugh: Thanks. You've made my day

Erhm.. They don't exist. Yes I managed to acquire bricks enough to actually make 20 sets of each. I'm considering what to do with those 40 sets in total.

You are aware that all staff members work for free and during their spare time around here? Now if any have any reliable/confirmed info on the GBP and EUR prices still not on the first page, then please repost them and I'll add them instantly. First page has been updated. Thanks to all of you, who've contributed

Gotcha Let's leave this open for discussion on those two sets. I'll rename the topic to fit a little more. I'll be doing reviews of both within the week.

The price is always an issue. If this topic turns into another rant on LEGO prices, I'll shut it down instantly. Consider yourself warned. For discussions on pricing, I suggest going to the LEGO News & General Discussions forum or the Ambassadors' forum. Stay on target.

So all we know now is North America & Germany.

Start out with simple colour sorting. When he becomes the master of colour-sorting, then you could sit down a talk about/learn him the different types of bricks. Then design a system with him. A system that fits his sorting and recognition skills. And as time passes by you can always expand the system. I think the main issue is that he's able to understand and agrees with whatever system you decide to use for sorting. Just my idea/thoughts.

Sadly that wasn't the original price. It was either a mistake or a release stunt.

Welcome to Eurobricks. No need to pack away your precious lego for a kid. I live in a 3-room appartment and I've managed to persuaded the Mrs that I need a bookcase for my lego and also having models and WIPs is ok. Even my soon-to-be-2-years-old daughter is on. "Daddy's bricks" refers to my system lego and "Ida's bricks" refers to her Duplo bricks. She even brings me the bricks I've dropped or lost around the appartment. Always good to have another AFOL on board, especially one that likes Star Wars, Classic Space and Castle.

Welcome Chris.
