MartinCliffe Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 Spent too much, bought too much, through jetlag induced boredom. New from Amazon: Obi-Wan's Interceptor, Carbon Freezing Chamber, Battle on Takodana, Resistance Troop Transport, Hoth Attack, Droid Escape, plus a few battle packs (3 of each). From Bricklink without figures: AT-TE, Flash Speeder, Naboo Starfighter, V-Wing, FO Transporter. 5 custom 501st Clones from Clone Army Customs. Figures from Bricklink: 3 Scout Troopers, 4 Endor Troopers, 4 Hoth Troopers, Wald, 10 FO Stormtroopers, Kanjiklub Gang Member, 4 ISD Stormtroopers, 2 Clone Troopers, 2 FO Flametroopers. All kinds of parts, and then some custom weapons from CAC, BrickArms and The Little Arms Shop. Going to be like a 2nd Christmas when all this arrives! Still planning to pick up Kanan's Speeder Bike and another few FO Battle Packs. Quote
BigEl Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 Wow thats quite a list. I personally avoid any of the New January Sets because I already know that I will want to have way too many of the upcoming Summer Wave Sets + UCS Sets Quote
JPN366 Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 Imperial Shuttle 74094 for $74 at Walmart. The Falcon was on clearance too, but was sold-out. Walmart near me has them for $74 in store. Don't have the money for it now... ARGH! Quote
Tripleghost Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I started to collect Lego Star Wars last month and these were my first (christmas) set: Lego 10240 Red Five X-wing UCS, 75049 snowspeeder (found 40€), 75054 At-At (found 130€) and next will be in days the 10236 Ewok Village. Half of these were just gifts for my university graduation XD I'm planning to do two little dioramas (90x35 cm each) with Endor battle and Hoth battle. Quote
BigEl Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Bought the Kashyyyk Troopers BP today for the normal price of 17 Euro at a retailer to flesh out my custom AT-AP... just crazy how the prices explode when availability starts to drop, amazon lists the BP already for 29 euros.

plethorabricks Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Resistance Troop Transporter and Battle of Takodana, with some well-saved VIP points. Battle of Takodana, as with most building and set-piece sets, uses many pieces to build up just a small area, so YMMV. The minifigs are excellent though. I understand what they did with the hidden box, but I wish they had used the bottom of ye olde pirate chest with a new-style flat lid top to make it even more special. Resistance Troop Transporter absolutely nails it, however. The build process is great, with new colored Technic axles, lots of disparate details integrated together, and it is almost as big as the assault carrier and almost half the price. This is one of those sets that follows the trend of increasing the count of small pieces just for constructing details - you may not be into that sort of thing, but I like the results. Quote
Lamborghini2670 Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) I just got the: UCS TIE Fighter 2x Death Star Trooper battlepacks First Order BP I'm still looking at get Kylo Ren's Command shuttle, some Shadow Trooper BP's, maybe more First Order BP's, FO Transporter and FO TIE Fighter. Edited January 5, 2016 by Lamborghini2670 Quote
KCMatze Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Just got the new Force Awakens Tie Fighter for 40 Euros!! Could not resist. Retail price is 69,99 Euro here in Germany normally. :-) Quote
brainless Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Where did you get it from? I only see it for about 55€ Quote
Commander Colt Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Got in on that end of the year sale a week back, got the Jedi Interceptor and the Grevious Chase. Both Excellent, Especially like the new R2 and Grevious, and it makes a good partner to my 9494, in which somebody else can be seated while waiting for the arrival of Obi-Wan's Interceptor. Quote
Junior Shark Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 The new FO Snowspeeder microfighter. Pretty nifty, though the lack of skirt is pretty ridiculous. Quote
RetroInferno Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Wow thats quite a list. I personally avoid any of the New January Sets because I already know that I will want to have way too many of the upcoming Summer Wave Sets + UCS Sets Let's talk about it Hahaha, I just ordered the UCS Slave 1; I might just get the freezing chamber for the sake of it (first bespin based set since I'm too afraid to remember) and the Droid escape for my Tattoine diorama. ( relativly cheap way of getting the mini-figs included ). Quote
Vectormatic Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 I just ordered a 75135 Obi wan Jedi Interceptor I really wanted an Obi interceptor, i missed out on the yellow Ani one on purpose, and built a black Vader Interceptor based on that design instead. I was initially disappointed with the new Obi design, and the price hike as well, but ive been trying to work out a way to bricklink a red colorshifted 75038 instead, and it would be just as expensive, if not more, then buying the 75135 and modifying it to suit my taste, and this way i get the right minifigs and stickers as well So tonight ill have to finish my F40 build, because tomorrow its Jedi Interceptor time!

KCMatze Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Where did you get it from? I only see it for about 55€ Karstadt, Dortmund. Was the last one and the had it reduced to 60 € because of a little hole in the box. I talked to the manager and got another 10 € discount...and then there was 20% off LEGO, Playmobil and Hasbro toys because of clearance sale! That makes 40 € for a brand new TFA Tie Fighter!! Quote
Csacsa234 Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 I finally got the construction kit General Grievous and the Firs Order Stormtrooper, both excellent Quote
RetroInferno Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 6x 1x Are those stormies the modified ones from the Battlefront BP? Quote
JPN366 Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Got the Tydirium Shuttle 75094 from Amazon for $14. It was on sale for $82, I had a $50 gift card and $18 in Amazon Visa rewards. Quote
RetroInferno Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) NO! OT Stormies (sw585) I would also gladly order a couple of those if they were not so damn expensive: I have a great total of 3 because of the 75060 and 75055. Edited January 7, 2016 by RetroInferno Quote
La Chupacabra Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) I have: 33 (sw585) 2 converted from 75134 (you can do same thing): http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=118757 Edited January 7, 2016 by La Chupacabra Quote
