JPN366 Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 My Mother offered to but me some sets for my 22nd birthday. I asked her, and she bought me the First Order Transporter. I wanted to buy myself the First Order Battlepack and the Resistance Battlepack,but at checkout she took them from me and paid for them herself too. All I can say is, thanks mom! :) Moms are the best. My Mom got me a sealed Wookiee Gunship from eBay for my birthday in a few weeks. My wife purchased a Carbon Freezing Chamber set from a third party seller on Amazon for $35. Quote
JPN366 Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 And my wife got me the UCS Slave I for my birthday, it came in the mail early. Quote
Kylo Ren Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I just received this beast, I know some people will say I should have got the Slave I but the TIE Fighter has much much bigger place in my heart, always loved that thing. Quote
kungapa Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Just got the Gold Leader Y-wing new in sealed box. Promptly unsealed the box and built it! Quote
emrah Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Got the 20018 polybag yesterday and I'm in love with it. Quote
Brickinho Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Bought The Ghost yesterday because I liked Rebels much more than expected. I watched the last episodes of Season 1 while I built the set. The final model ist nice, but building it wasn't very exciting. And it's a bit too colourful in my opinion. I think, I will replace some parts. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Grabbed all the Series 3 Microfighters (except for the Snowspeeder). All the rest looked awesome. Quote
JPN366 Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Got the Resistance X-Wing Microfighter 75125. My Walmart had the entire series 3, plus the Battlefront battle packs, Carbon Freezing Chamber, Droid Escape Pod, Hoth Attack and the Obi-Wan Interceptor. Had to restrain myself from getting everything. I really want the Hoth Attack. Quote
jhaelego Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 A fourth FO transporter, 2 more resistance battle packs, Death Star Final Duel. Quote

jdm44 Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Went a bit crazy and got... 75049: Snowspeeder 75054: AT-AT 10225: UCS R2-D2 10227: UCS B-Wing 10236: Ewok Village That's an epic haul. Quote
analogkid81 Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Just picked up UCS R2-D2 and UCS Obi Starfighter. Makes 9 UCS sets bought since October. I think I'm done for awhile ;) Now to start building them... Quote
GunwitchUK Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Had the FO Tie Fighter bought as a pressie from the wife (admittedly after I bought the Falcon myself). Tie Fighters just rock my boat, there's something about them that just makes me giggle like a school girl Quote
hallonsylt Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Just picked up UCS R2-D2 and UCS Obi Starfighter. Makes 9 UCS sets bought since October. I think I'm done for awhile ;) Now to start building them... That's the way to do it!! Quote
Junior Shark Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Score! Found the Kanan's Speeder Bike set at Target! Thought it was gonna be $24.99, but it was a very pleasant $19.99! Didn't even bother building the bike, but the crates look pretty good. And that new Imperial combat driver... *swoon* Only March set I've seen so far, besides one DC Superheroes set. Quote
Junior Shark Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Double post, but whatever. My Wal-Mart has all the new Star Wars sets! Got a Galactic Empire BP. Now where's my Brasso.... Quote
Spud The Viking Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Skipped on 75135 Obi-Wan’s Jedi Interceptor for £15 and got 75134 Galactic Empire Battle Pack for the normal price. The more stormies the better. Quote
ChiefPie Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Got the Resistance X-Wing Microfighter 75125. My Walmart had the entire series 3, plus the Battlefront battle packs, Carbon Freezing Chamber, Droid Escape Pod, Hoth Attack and the Obi-Wan Interceptor. Had to restrain myself from getting everything. I really want the Hoth Attack. Are you in the USA? Quote
Junior Shark Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 @ ChiefPie: Yep he's in the US. I'm in the US too, and my local Wal-Mart and Target already have all of the new sets. Quote
ChiefPie Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 @ ChiefPie: Yep he's in the US. I'm in the US too, and my local Wal-Mart and Target already have all of the new sets. Thanks, looks like I'm going to look around! Quote
JPN366 Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Finished my UCS Slave I. I had two missing pieces, but they were mistakenly replaced by the wrong pieces in the bags. I got a 1 x 6 dark gray brick instead of a 1 x 8 black Technic brick in one bag. In the other, I got a 1 x 4 LBG winglet instead of a 1 x 3 LBG winglet. Thankfully, I had one of the parts on hand and I was able to go to a second hand store that has a big table of loose parts and find the other. Quote
JPN366 Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Ordered another AT-AT Microfighter with some rewards points on Amazon. I love the AT-AT driver minifigure, I have the one that came with my 75054 set and the Microfighter I already have. Maybe a fourth is on the horizon... Quote
JPN366 Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) My wife went to Walmart and picked up the Obi-Wan Jedi Interceptor for my son, the Hoth Attack, the Ghost Microfighter and Wookiee Gunship Microfighter for me and a couple of the Mighty Micros DC sets for herself. She put together the Carbon Freezing Chamber that she had ordered last week and said it wasn't that fun of a build. My son said he was being "silly" when he stacked the wing stickers on top of each other. That was fun prying them apart. Edited February 21, 2016 by JPN366 Quote
Brickinho Posted February 21, 2016 Posted February 21, 2016 Tie Advanced Prototype 75082. Looks good and I had a lot of fun building it. Ezra's speeder bike 75090. No mandalorian helmet. Didn't enjoy building the same vehicle twice. Maybe is should read reviews before i buy a Set... Quote
