Brickdoctor Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 Ooops. Sorry. No, rereading my post, that was my fault. Yup! Ah. So I guess if you want to sell it you have to hurry up before the DVD/Blu-Ray release. Not that I can see why anyone would buy it when it can be made from already available parts. Quote
Vindicare Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 Off topic but, I know this may be a complete noob question... What's canon refer to? I've read it plenty of times in this section but I can't figure it out for the life of me. Quote
Alldarker Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) Off topic but, I know this may be a complete noob question... What's canon refer to? I've read it plenty of times in this section but I can't figure it out for the life of me. See the wiki on the term 'canon' right here. In short, the term canon denotes the material accepted as "official" in a fictional universe's fan base. Edited August 6, 2011 by Alldarker Quote

I've read it plenty of times in this section but I can't figure it out for the life of me. This would probably belong in General Questions. Anyways, canon is the stories that are considered to exist in the Star Wars storyline, events that are considered to have actually happened in the Star Wars universe. Non-canon stories such as Infinities aren't part of the storyline. Things previously canon can become non-canon if they're contradicted by another source of higher canon status. Quote
Artanis I Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 I saw it with an audience of adults and everybody gasped when that happened. It was brilliantly written and the surprise is so ... for lack of a better word ... cute! So, I will ban the next person who gives it away. But, seriously. Giving away the ending sucks. I saw it by myself the first time, then with a bunch of young people. I was genuinely surprised and felt a fool (insert facepalm here *) but some of the guys were perceptive... "Hey... I bet it's ********************* just look at *****************!" (censored by me) * Hey we actually have one of these now! Quote

will Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) It's listed on Amazon with a couple of images. The UK site had two different release dates though. Approx. £11 for UK and $11 for the US. Edit: the Amazon.co.uk site has a couple of extra images. Edited August 8, 2011 by will Quote

Edit: the Amazon.co.uk site has a couple of extra images. Yes, but I meant the picture of the Han Solo figure. It's the first 'clear' picture I've seen so far.. Quote
will Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Sorry, it might be my phone not displaying the page properly, so I can't see the picture. There is a pic of the minifig on the US Amazon site as well. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Yes, but I meant the picture of the Han Solo figure. It's the first 'clear' picture I've seen so far.. It has. Somewhere in here... It should be on StarWars.com, too, along with a preview of the contents. Quote
brickbuilder Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 About the Character Encyclopedia, has this been posted? Yes, we have seen that picture. Thanks anyway. Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Just a heads up, but the Advent Calendar is now available from Amazon in the U.S. Quote
LandShark Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Lego 7963 & 7929 store display That actually looks really good, but what does the 'try me' knob do? Quote
StoutFiles Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 That actually looks really good, but what does the 'try me' knob do? Looking at the tracks on the ground it probably moves Anakin's pod forward and then back again. Quote
K-Nut Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Lego 7963 & 7929 store display The same exact one is at my Target. Quote
LandShark Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Looking at the tracks on the ground it probably moves Anakin's pod forward and then back again. Ah, that'll be it. I didn't see those. I wonder if they will make displays like this for other sets. Quote
JediJeffri Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Yes, the "Try Me" knob does indeed move Anakin's podracer back and forth. Quote
Vindicare Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Ah, that'll be it. I didn't see those. I wonder if they will make displays like this for other sets. The one at TRU has the Frigate and MF in it. Quote
LandShark Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 The one at TRU has the Frigate and MF in it. Does it have a 'Try Me' knob? But really, I'd love to see things like this for other sets and themes. Quote
Mr Man Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Lego 7963 & 7929 store display That's quit a nice display. It would look better in a green case though. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 That's quit a nice display. It would look better in a green case though. Nah. Yellow is recognizable as a LEGO color. Plus all other LEGO display cases are yellow. Quote
Mr Man Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) Nah. Yellow is recognizable as a LEGO color. Plus all other LEGO display cases are yellow. Yeah but in green it would stand out as more like Naboo. Edit: However the pod scenes took place on Tatooine . Yeah stick to Lego yellow . Edited August 14, 2011 by Mr Man Quote
Vindicare Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Does it have a 'Try Me' knob? But really, I'd love to see things like this for other sets and themes. Alas...no, but it does have lights around the border. There's also a Hero Factory one and an Alien Conquest one with the Earth Defense HQ and the Alien Mothership. Quote
mutley777 Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 That is a very nice store display! With Star Wars Celebration VI only just over a week away, I am starting to wonder if there will be a exclusive set for the event. I hope so and hope even more it is better than the Comic Con one. Quote
