So they did the MF again.. they've done the ISD... I really hope they don't re-do the Executor again... it was pretty boring. I want an AT-AT. And I want a really oversized X-Wing, like double figure scale or something. An X-Wing with 4000+ pieces too... awesome. And some Tie fighter variants...

Yeah I guess it could - but for a ship this big (movie scale) it's cool to have it be BIG in Lego scale! The trick I suppose... is just to live in a huge house! :P

The lack of interior is actually a massive faux-pas I believe - yeah it's a large display piece but you want to know there is life inside it! That's why the MF is so cool... And with any kind of "display" item, there are times when you get up, go and have a look at it, pick it up, have a little play... with this model, they could have had a top section that lifts off with a cool interior full of relevant figures, doing relevant things, in relevant settings! Would really have made it more special - it's been 10 years or so since the last one.. and it's just an empty shell? Great outer shell but it needs more! More creativity! More weight! More pieces! And put some LEDs in them, ffs.......

D I S A G R E E ! The bigger the better....

I love this forum! I get a never-ending stream of spammy messages in my email account about "what people wish they would get" yet not one single email mentioned the release of the Tantive IV! Only my email from Lego did....

This Cavegod sandcrawler is just incredible! Cavegod.. please don't stop putting out the manual etc, I'm not quite ready to do it now but I would definitely buy the manual and all the bricks needed in the future! Can it all be bought as 1 kit? What other creations have you made Cavegod? Did you make an AT-AT too? Thanks!

Why on Earth would they do that??? When did that get released?

So where's the next UCS set? It's bloody October already and no news??

You enjoy SJW agenda shoving? Interesting.

The Y-Wing

Yes, one to build, one to keep for an investment potentially, for the future. Problem with that? Given the meteoric rise in the price of old Star Wars sets, you're frankly stupid if you don't!

One to build, one to collect unopened maybe?

and what would that be? So I happened to pass by Lego on Leicester Square today and what did I see? (Picture not inserted due to retardedly low attachment file size limit) What I saw was.... a shitload of Y-Wings! Now I see the limit is 5 on Lego's website. Pointless move - I would have bought two out of instinct but I only bought 1. Now I'll just stick with one because... meh. I also saw this: (Picture not inserted due to retardedly low attachment file size limit) How is this for sale?? I thought they were totally sold out??

Yeah but that's totally stupid of them because there is not going to be a mad rush for a less-than-2000 piece May 4th UCS Y-Wing that is not really very special at all. The damn Slave 1 and Sand Crawler are way more interesting and they didn't sell out in 1 day, not even in 1 year! Who the hell is running Lego??

Why is the Y-Wing limited to 1 set only per household in the UK? It's not like it's the falcon or anything...? Other UCS hang around for years... so why limit the Y-Wing to just 1 set? Weird.
