Kman860 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Rey's Speeder. Smart design, but pretty large as far as the scale goes. Unsure how the "Unkar thug" plays into it either. The title "thug" and the box art paint him as an adversary, but this... *snip* ...doesn't really align with that. Wouldn't have minded a BB-8, either. That's because that's Tweedo, not the thug. I wouldn't have minded a BB-8 either, but with the MF and X-wing, I already have 2... Quote
Deadshot Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Ah, I see. Unkar's thug is the big guy here then. Still seems that he and Tweedo (Teedo?) are not the nicest folk. BB's in the big sets, yeah, but I don't plan on dropping that amount of money any time soon. I was surprised when the initial TFA sets were revealed, that the cheapest one was $20 and the rest were at least double that. Depending on the price of the Battle of Takodana (http://smg.photobuck...ffhro.jpeg.html) that may be the only 2 TFA sets I get. Still no BB-8, though. Quote

Ya sorry, idk why I keep thinking it's Tweedo, I was surprised too when I seen the prices for the TFA sets, but don't worry, I'm sure in another year or so BB-8 will show up in a $30 set. Quote
Regimus Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Just bought R5-J2 from bricklink. My astromech collection is now complete (except for clone wars and the old style, neither of which I like the look of) Quote
rollermonkey Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Kylo Ren's Shuttle. The only TFA set I don't have now is the Falcon, but I have the 2011 version and completed a BL 10179 this Summer, so I can take a pass on this one. Quote

WarSquirrel Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 After taking a break from lego for a few months to build a PC I came back for TFA. I recently bought 75099 Rey's Speeder and have 75103 First Order Transporter on the way - I can't wait Quote
rollermonkey Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Did you BL the figs too? I have not. I guess I'm waiting to see the movie first. (12 days! ) If any major characters don't survive the first film, then those figures will show up in a lot fewer sets in the future, so getting them now would be far more important. ...and we all know that a certain actor has asked repeatedly to have their character killed off...

bootz Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Grabbed the latest OT Snowspeeder today. I wouldn't call it an update of the design, more like a refinement. It's a Snowspeeder with Luke and Dak so it's what you've come to expect, which I suppose isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's up to you if the $30 USD is worth it. The Snowtrooper is really nice though, I love the printed 1x1 tile on his backpack and I was delighted to find a second in my leftover pieces. I think my next purchase will be the rebels Stormtrooper battle pack. I've realized I have more clones than stormies and I need to remedy that. Edited December 6, 2015 by bootz Quote
Pcm979 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 WHO? I won't say. You'll have to ford that river solo. Quote

JPN366 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Went to Target and got the last two FO TIE Fighter polybags they had. Also grabbed the last two TIE Advanced Prototype polybags that they had. Quote
Cyanide-Tipped Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 My Target store literally had a hundred of those TIE Fighter polybags sitting around ...no one wants them I guess. Quote
YellowCorvette Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Just get the 75102 Poe's X-Wing set yesterday for my own Christmas present. Aside for the ugly wings and rubber bands, I think this is a good set. I also get 2 The Phantom polybag too with the purchase. Quote
Tom Bombadil Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Bought the command shuttle for the Kylo Ren minifig and Rey's speeder. Am glad the 2016 set is featuring Kylo Ren with flesh head so not a repeat of the command shuttle version. Quote
Vitos72 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Hello, i just assembled a V19-torrent, bought in 2010 for my son that was only 4!!!

I don't think I could have waited 5 years to build a set! :laugh: Quote
Vitos72 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Ahahah! Really i have build it just bought to verify all the bricks ( on ebay used ), and then 5 years in his box, hidden in the house! Quote
Artemis78 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Got myself the Poe's X wing for 50€, pretty nice deal :) Quote
Rune Haako Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Got Poe's X-Wing Fighter in the mail today from Amazon. Now all I need is the Falcon, and Kylo's Shuttle. Edit - Oops, forgot about the Tie Fighter, I also need it. Edited December 7, 2015 by Rune Haako Quote
JPN366 Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Got another Utapau Troopers battle pack and the Hailfire Droid. Quote
Kman860 Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Got another Utapau Troopers battle pack and the Hailfire Droid. I've been thinking about picking up another one of those and another geonosis troopers pack too Quote
legosamsonite Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Got a TFA c3po and a star destroyer microfighter Quote
JPN366 Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) I've been thinking about picking up another one of those and another geonosis troopers pack too My son has all of the battle packs, but he likes to mix things up. So nothing is still intact. Ergo, I've been slowly acquiring them for myself to add to my collection. I think I have all of them now. Got a TFA c3po and a star destroyer microfighter I need to find one of those. Edited December 8, 2015 by JPN366 Quote
