  1. I'm going to take a random guess based on my experience of the other huge UCS sets like the Falcon and the Star Destroyer. But the shipping boxes for those sets are pretty much the exact size of the set itself, so I'm guessing there's no room for the GWP in there, and so they have to ship it separately.
  2. Well, at least it's something! It definitely looks a little more pleasing with a 6 at the beginning. I see the set hasn't sold out either, which is strange for a UCS Star Wars set.
  3. Maybe I missed something since a little earlier in the month, but I just checked the LEGO Store website and it's showing the UCS AT-AT in stock for £699.99 now? Was it not £750? Did they quickly realise that £750 was unpalatable for most people?
  4. We seem to get scr*wed time and time again by LEGO. UCS Falcon: $800, £650 UCS Star Destroyer: $700, £650 UCS AT-AT: $800, £750
  5. Well, I don't have either set, but from what I have seen in videos, the Titanic is pretty densely packed inside, with the structure to hold it together and interior detailing. I imagine it must be pretty heavy. As for the AT-AT, I mean, the main body of it looks essentially a hollow cavity filled with minifig seating. I cannot imagine the AT-AT weighs anywhere close to what the Titanic does. But again, that's pure guessing. I have neither set. I would definitely be interested to know what the weight of both sets are. I just feel like, £750 is just a push too far. Like you, it's a question of how on earth to afford such a thing. £650 is already a push, but it feels like £750 is a push too far, unless there's very significant discounts at some point.
  6. I have to say, I thought the RRP was going to be £650, the same as the Falcon and the Star Destroyer. I know that Brexit happened and yada yada, but the RRP in the US is $800, the same as it was for the UCS Falcon, and that was £650.
  7. I honestly don't understand the price of the AT-AT. £750. I get that this thing is huge, but it doesn't look any bigger than the Titanic set, and that is £570.
  8. I love the figures. I'm so happy we're getting Looney Tunes figures. But.. where the heck is Elmer Fudd? I mean, you've got Bugs in there, you've got the "Rabbit Season" sign, but no Elmer? I feel like Yosemite Sam should have been in there too. And Pepe Le Pew (although, we all know he got cancelled recently). Hopefully they are just saving some of those for a series 2, along with Foghorn Leghorn, Gossamer and others. I watched a LOT of Looney Tunes as a kid, but I have to admit I have no idea who the female pig is? Considering they got 3 of each, except for 6 of Roadrunner, I'm guessing that 3 of those Roadrunners should have been Wile E. Coyotes.
  9. Gutted they didn't choose Naruto: Ichiraku Ramen Shop, Temple of Hermit or the Clipper. But I'm happy about Sonic! That's a definite buy for me! As for the painting... meh.
  10. I'm so excited for this one! I'm so happy that they eventually made the right choice. Thank you @toastergrl Now if they would only make some Mario minifig sets.
  11. Oh right. Thanks for clearing that up. I appreciate it!
  12. Okay, maybe I'm going crazy, but did they change the design of the 1x1 round tile gauges? Every picture I've seen of this set online, and the pictures in the instructions, show the gauge design with the silver tab at the bottom and the silver dot in the middle, but all of mine in came like this - Misprint? Or changed design? Or is it a different version? I'm just confused because the instructions show a different thing, and all the pictures I've seen from other people show the silver on the gauge. But I just checked the Bricks and Pieces section of the site, and it shows the gauge I have.

    Studio Ghibli for me.
  14. The thing that annoys me the most is the roof. Why the hell are the trusses exposed on the ends like that without the slates on top of them? Have the designers at LEGO seen any roof ever? Was looking forward to this set so much and this is so disappointing.
  15. It's gone from looking authentic, to looking like a fake Disneyland recreation. I absolutely hate everything about it. This is by far the worst change from the original design. I don't think that LEGO should be allowed to make such significant changes to what was voted on. I bet a lot of people that voted for the original design, would not have voted for the LEGO redesign.
