Finally ordered the UCS MF. Plan to use the double points toward the new UCS Y wing and get a second BB8 too. Unfortunately the points aren't showing up on my account yet. 

Points will show up once the order sent so not sure if you will be able to get the y wing before the end of May the fourth deal...

I finally bought the U-Wing at my local LEGO Store, and ordered Krennic’s Shuttle from the online one, giving me two more of the Rogue One sets, plus what should be two copies of the BB-8 promo. Hooray!

Does the double VIP points only apply to the Lego Shop online?  Or will it be honored at actual brick & mortar Lego Shop stores as well?

I recently purchased the NYCC 2017 Exclusive of Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite.  

Here's a video of my speed build if interested!

I had a speeder buying spree for two weeks haha.  Made use of the Imperial battle packs/speeder to make my own barricade and speeder stop.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for that?  Seems prices are ridiculous for that set.  Are there many preprinted parts?  I had contemplated buying the parts and building it but wondering how close it would be to the correct version.

Well it had to be done, I didnt have one in the collection so....added the Y-Wing

Bought the Moloch's Speeder set and the Cantina set because I both saw them at great price.

Also bought 40x phase II clone trooper from bricklink, from the same seller. If you guys are wondering who the lucky guy was that got 40 for €2.50, yeah, that was me

Nice collection! And you picked the right cabinet, it all fits so well!

Got the First Order Heavy Scout Walker 75177 at Walmart for $11.  The box had been messed with, one of the employees let me open the box to check the contents.  All four bags were there, but the instructions were missing.  They taped it back up and I bought it.  I'm assuming there are no stickers in that set, correct?

Good deal!

Check on bricklink but from what I remember no there are no stickers.

I downloaded the PDF instructions, obviously, and saw no indication of stickers through the build.

Where did you get this awesome shelf. Looking for a good shelf that fits the collection and this looks amazing and fits the taller sets really well

It's from Wayfair, although I didn't pay the current price for it, got it in a sale.

My local dealer has 15% off for LEGO, so i bought 75208 Yoda's Hut for €25,49.

This was my most frustrating LEGO build ever. If you apply a little too much pressure, it tends to shatter spectacularly, sending pieces everywhere. Had to rebuild it twice after steps 60 and 65. Now i'm down 1x 4211183 and even worse 1x 6172808, both in brown. I hope i can hear those pieces rattling in my vacuum tomorrow. Since i bought the set mainly for the figures it's not such a big deal, but be warned.

I was saving up money and finally decided on buying the 75211 Tie-Fighter yesterday for 69,99 €, as an early birthday gift for myself. I allways wanted an OT Tie-Fighter and this one is just perfect for me. I had a really great time building it and I just love this set, thats why I also payed the full price. The minifigs are great to, especially the Mimban-Stormtrooper, but the main reason for buying it, was the Tie-Fighter itself.

Finally I got the USD Slave I from Lego online during the 4/5 promotion. I was a bit shocked seeing at the same page the Slave I at €199,99 and the new Kessel run MF at €174,99 . The new MF is waaay too expensive, sigh!

I picked up Moloch's speeder today.  Looking forward to the build, but also afterwards I'm looking forward to having some of the great parts, the Moloch minifigure, and the Corellian Hounds.

The latest Lego Star Wars magazine, with a mini... Quadjumper. The whole ship is an elaborate joke, and this is just cheap enough to be funny.

I did get one too at 10% off, all 4 mini-figs are solid and ''massable'' if it wasn't priced so high. Very different printing for the helmets for both the Tie Pilot and Mimban Storm Trooper, I wonder if Lego is planning on modifying the print on their standard storm trooper helmets after this too.

Tie fighters are not the most exciting builds by a long shot but the end product is very nice. I may very well end up with a second one if it's ever graced with a 30% off on amazon.

Well the price was/is really high, but I wanted an OT Tie for so long, that I started saving for it the moment I knew, that it will be released, and since I dont plan to buy any other SW sets in this year, I think, that I made a good decision. I could have waited a bit more, but I just couldnt, when I saw it at my shop.

The build was fun but also very nervous. I started building it and saw, that there were 5 bags in the box and when I looked at the instructions there were only 4 bags drawn in it. I oppened all the bags and compared the parts with the parts list at the end of the instructions, thank goodnes, nothing was missing. The parts in bag no. 3, were in two seperate bags, which was strange, since this is the first time I ever saw this happening.
