Wasn't sure I would get this set but 30% sales are rare in Canada so I pulled the trigger. Added the U-Wing starfighter and Krennic's shuttle both also for 30% off! Don't talk about it, I just did that too, with both K2 and Death troopers at 20$ CAN each... After all Tie fighters always look best in pairs I also took the free amazon prime trial but remember to unsubscribe before 30 days or they are going to automitically charge you for a whole year.

March 19, 20177 yr Bought some sets from Amazon.de, since recently they have free shipping to the netherlands from 30€ or more. Duel on Naboo for €23 Desert Skiff set for €31 The 2nd Phantom for €31 The two battlepacks from the recent wave, €13 each. Sets are all great, happy with them for this price. Also, I bought the Rogue One visual dictionary, which is a great book IMO, it exceeded my expectations! For the Y-wing and Scarif bunker battle, I guess I'll wait till they're on a bigger sale.

Yes they do! But I am seriously starting to run out of space to display my sets. The striker will look amazing next to the normal tie, the tie prototype and my 1999 Darth Vader Tie advance haha. And for the amazon trial, I already canceled the auto renewal. It will simply expire in September. Edited March 19, 20177 yr by duboismerci

I just took the free trial. The deals are for anyone. Brickset keeps a page where they update the sales on amazon. You can even chose your country and narrow the search to a specific theme (star wars for exemple :P) I'll link it here.
March 20, 20177 yr Bought Kylo Ren's Shuttle BNISB for 61.50 including postage from eBay last night. Works out at ~45% discount. Slight side question is there a good database / website listing of all star wars mini-figures? Edit: Never mind answered my own question... found this http://brickset.com/minifigs/category-Star-Wars Edited March 20, 20177 yr by Ahzeal

I don't even need faster shipping. I have patience Yeah, I know of the Brickset thing, but I use pricevortex.com (French website but it's easier)

March 22, 20177 yr Recently got the new 75174 Desert Skiff, I didn't expect much but it is big. the sarlacc is actually the best part about it, the dark orange is amazing
March 23, 20177 yr Purchased a MIB Snowspeeder 75049 from BrickLink last night. Now I just need to get an AT-AT so I can have something for the speeder to wrap it's tow cable around.
March 23, 20177 yr New Y-Wing off Amazon for 52€. Further improvement over the already fairly reasonable price. It's nice. Some pretty clever building going on in the cockpit section, I did not realise the sides angled in like that.
March 23, 20177 yr @MakeNLego You liked the Sarlacc? I agree the color is nice, but didn't like all the technic pieces just out there. I just opened this set and I really liked the minifigs - especially the Skiff guard, but I'm not sold on the rest of the set. Felt just a tad too basic.
March 23, 20177 yr @QwikBricks I think the "mouth" or the Sarlacc itself is an improvement with the cockpit bubbles, but the pit itself is pretty bad. It's barely even a "pit".
March 23, 20177 yr the sarlacc just reminds me of the Audrey 2 out of little shop of horrors it kept putting me off buying the set I have it now but I still dislike the sarlacc
March 25, 20177 yr The U-wing starfighter without minifigs and rebel trooper battle pack from rogue one
March 26, 20177 yr Today in bought and built the 75175 A wing. I like A wings so this was a must buy for me. For 49,95€, it's way too expensive for what you get. Compared to the 75150 A wing it's inferior. The only 2 things that are better are the guns and the storage space. The landing gear is dreadfully done, i added a few pieces myself to make it look decent. Even compared to the old 75003 it's not a good deal valuewise. It's a hastily rehatch of 75150, but with less bricks and more flaws.
March 27, 20177 yr Got a nice Bricklink order, containing Asajj Ventress and 30x Hoth Rebel trooper (€1,60 each!) amongst some parts. Really happy with the order c:

Really happy with the order c: I read that as 30x Asajj Ventress and could only think why? Then I reread that and it all made far more sense
March 30, 20177 yr Purchased 75044 Tri-Fighter as well as parts to build two of Larry Lars' Droidekas.
