No because VAT rates are different in different countries. Belgium has it pretty bad for eg.

The problem with these ridiculous prices is that even with the usual Amazon sales, a 30% reduction isn't going to make a grossly overpriced set more attractive for buyers. Im still not biting on some of the TFA first wave sets, despite the sales. Stuff like the X-Wing are still too expensive at 69 euros (c. 30% off, ie).

I find the best deals in the UK to wait for the 3 for 2 toys deal at Argos. It always includes Lego.

Yep, definitely getting that minifig. Leg printing would have been nice, but oh well.

Isn't that an Y-wing helmet?

Some Y-wing pilots in RotJ do use that style of flight helmet, as do the B-wing pilots. Some A-wing pilots do too. They are different style of helmets but don't get too hung up on which one matches with which starfighter (besides, only three styled of helmets and five Alliance starfighters in canon).

I'm loving that A-wing pilot minifig. Is the visor part of the helmet mold? I hope so. It looks like it judging by the yellow bleed into the rim of the helmet.

To me it looks like it's part of the minifig face

It looks great! It's definitely the same mold as before, so the visor is printed on the face. I still really like it, though I kinda hoped there would be another A-wing set that had this figure (preferably the blue one with the white arrow from the McQuarrie concept art). The set number of that rumored set still appears on Brickset but the set name has vanished. I guess it won't be coming anymore then, but chances were very slim because of set 75150 anyway.

That's looking great, will definitely try and grab a few of these. Lack of leg print is a shame, but not surprising as its a 'Rebels' minifigure which tend to be a bit plainer. Can't wait to find out where he'll be available from.

It's a nice looking fig. Is it meant to be rebels inspired or OT? I guess it works for both looking at it.

It's from Rebels but because TLG made Rebel minifigures have regular printing, it can blend in OT perfectly.
