RetroInferno Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 25%! Jesus Christ.... Agreed on Encounter on Jakku and the latest swarm of X-Wings, I really don't dig them. I'll have to wait and see clearer shots of the new rogue sets to get a better opinion on them: but for those that dislikes them, just wait for the new death star, can't be worse than Assault on Hoth.

HawkLord Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) I found a bunch of the Utapau trooper battle packs at a store near me. Haven't decided if I want to buy one yet though I would get at least one. I have two and they're really good. Very unique helmet mold for the airborne trooper, which is really cool. Bricklinked the a-wing pilot from 2013, Ree-Yees and two Bith musicians. Wish I came out of the dark age in 2013 D: When I look at Brickset, I've found that 2013 was my biggest year for SW purchases in terms of sets. So much good material.

slenos Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 That's just ridiculous. Do you have income taxes as well? Quote
MysticModulus Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 That's just ridiculous. Do you have income taxes as well? Yes, from about 30 % and up depending on the levels of income. Quote
Forresto Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 I found a bunch of the Utapau trooper battle packs at a store near me. Haven't decided if I want to buy one yet though Although it's probably marked up get one or two! While I missed out originally I later brick linked the figures and oh my god, those are some of the best clone troopers Lego has made. Quote
pittpenguin123 Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 I look on the "new " Poes X-wing as kind of a rental, it's a generic, nothing special X-wing from the Resistance X-wing "motor pool" that he borrowed to go find Lor San Tekka, Where as his "Old" X-wing is his personal X-wing with some choice modifications. From what I read that was his x-wing (he had a matching helmet and same marking in blue as on the orange) then when he lost it he got upgraded to the slightly new model and got transferred to black squadron Quote
Raelthorne Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 (edited) That's just ridiculous. Do you have income taxes as well? Taking into account all deductions, about 51% of our income if a person earns over € / $ 32000 per annum Edited June 3, 2016 by Raelthorne Quote
tuggernuts Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Taking into account all deductions, about 51% of our income if a person earns over € / $ 32000 per annum Good lord!!!!!! Quote
Raelthorne Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Good lord!!!!!! Don't mean to derail the thread. Yup, then as I said: 23% sales tax (VAT) and then add in "stealth" taxes such as property tax, water charges, 33% tax on interest earned on your savings, €40 per annum tax per credit card, up to 2.5% tax on your withdrawals from an ATM and an additional 2% tax / levy on insurance payments due to financial mismanagement & poor regulation in the Insurance Sector.

Kman860 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 General question, what are you guys from europe paying as taxes on such products (Lego)? It's 15% in Canada Well, 15% in Quebec, 13% in Ontario (where I am), but it pretty much goes down from there (I think Alberta is 7% and they whine about that). Quote
Juke Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Got a lucky find. Found 75050 B-wing at my local toys r us. Also got 75080 ATT, and 75075 microfighter AT-AT along with it Quote
miles teg Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Check your local Tesco if in the UK, Mine has Tie Advanced microfighters reduced to £2.50 each ! Quote
ChiefPie Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 I got a 20% toys r us coupon but I don't know what to use it on hmm. Quote
JPN366 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 I got a 20% toys r us coupon but I don't know what to use it on hmm. If you want Captain Rex's AT-TE, that's $96. The CTT, that's $88. The TIE vs. A-Wing, that's $72. The X-Wing, that's $64. Jakku, that's $48. Star Scavenger, that's $40. Eclipse Fighter, that's $24. Or if you want something else, the regular price times 0.20. Quote

Star Scavenger, that's $40. Eclipse Fighter, that's $24. Or if you want something else, the regular price times 0.20. If I were in your position, I'd be tempted by the Resistance X-Wing and the Tie vs. A-Wing combo Quote

JPN366 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Product x 0.80 = net before tax That way too. I have one of those TRU 20% off coupons. Trying to think of a way to convince the wife to use it on one of the new sets, Too bad TRU doesn't carry the Hoth set. 20% off that would be $200 even. Edited June 4, 2016 by JPN366 Quote
ChiefPie Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 It came in the mail with a small catalog. The awing set sounds good with the coupon because that set is definitely not worth $90. Quote
RetroInferno Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Torn on weither or not I should buy Jabba off bricklink, that guy alone is worth more than a small set itself. Meanwhile there is no one to tail slap poor Bib Fortuna :( Also seriously considering getting all of the Rogue One sets D: Quote
JPN366 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) It came in the mail with a small catalog. The awing set sounds good with the coupon because that set is definitely not worth $90. Using it on that or the AT-TE or the CTT brings them down to or closer to the 10 cents per part ratio. The other 4 sets it takes them way under. But I agree with you, the A-Wing/TIE is more palatable at $72. But 20% off the AT-TE is hard to pass up. I would have a hard time choosing between the two. Edited June 4, 2016 by JPN366 Quote
