GRogall Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 And here the official HR image of the fig! picture links to +2400.pxl version! Enjoy! :thumbup: Quote
The Joker1 Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 That pic is great it really brings up the details in the figure. Unfortunately not all the details are good Obviously the hands when enlarged look even worse and now we can see the leg when bent is not chromed. Oh well thanks anyway GRogall. Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 The chrome legs on TC-14 look a lot worse than the Chrome Stormtrooper. We'll have to see how many of the figures have this same problem. Quote
Fuppylodders Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 I honestly don't think it was a mistake, but that's just my opinion. Last year it was stated on the cards that it was $75 to be spent on LSW sets. This year it is also stated as such, as I quoted in my post on the previous page. It was just a mistake on TLG's part of how they applied the free minifig system into their website. I am sure this year they shall have looked back at last years mishap and will make sure it doesn't happen again. If they don't, then they are intentionally misleading people for some reason Quote
Masked Builder Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 Wow, that figure really is awesome! Let's hope I can get him to keep my Chrome 3PO happy! Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 I believe last year was a mistake/oversight on LEGO's part but you would think that when they ran this last promo during 15-30 March 2012, they would have fixed it. I got a couple more Shadow ARF Troopers purchasing the Mini-Modulars and Super Heroes sets. Lego Shadow ARF Trooper Minifigure is back by murphquake' date=' on Flickr[/quote'] Quote
Eric W. Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 What is this TIE promo I keep hearing about??? Is it only in Europe? Quote
Brickdoctor Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 What is this TIE promo I keep hearing about??? Is it only in Europe? It's a free Mini TIE with a LEGO Star Wars purchase, and it does appear to be Europe-only, yes. Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 And here the official HR image of the fig! THANKS!!! Need, need, need... NEED. Trying to control myself not to order the UCS R2. Quote
Gooker1 Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 I'm glad to hear that the Geonosian Cannon, the Clone Battle Pack, and the planet sets won't be on sale; now I can start planning my full purchase. I couldn't say yes or no w/ regards to discounts on the battle packs and some of the other sets. What I listed was just what I was told, so please don't hold it as the ones I mentioned are the ONLY sales. ;) I'm hoping there are more, but yes, 10% isn't all that saucy to begin with LOL Quote
Solscud007 Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 Last month LEGO stores were giving away the Mini Tie Fighter with $50 purchase of SW LEGO. Here in the US that is. Quote

Cant wait!!!!! While I do not wish to distract the discussion from its main focus, I have to ask you two, and all the others in the same position, to check their spelling, grammar, punctuation and capitalisation when posting, please. It will make your posts easier to read. Thank you. Quote
TheDarkness Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 It's live for Australia and I just bought the UCS R2. It automatically adds the Mini Tie/poster and TC-14 in, and free standard shipping. I just did a test and put in a mini modulars set, and a Watto keyring and it added the TC-14 minifig to my cart. It totaled over $100 Australian, and the keychain enabled me to get free shipping. So only $6.99 spent on Star Wars would have scored me a free minifig and free shipping. Quote

I guess they just want to encourage people to buy more Star Wars, but reward anyone who buys. Well, if they are doing it this way again, it'll probably be Kingdoms Joust and the Endor BP for me.

Now I'm browsing the whole site to see if there are enough sets that interest me. Edit: Spending $150 doesn't get you two free figs, does it? Edited May 3, 2012 by johnnyvgoode Quote

Did it add the mini-TIE in as well since you purchased a SW keyring? Quote
GRogall Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 Here is that poster lego is also giving away with that promo on the 4th. and 5th.! Enjoy! :classic: Quote
TheDarkness Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Did it add the mini-TIE in as well since you purchased a SW keyring? It actually added the Tie/poster combo without any Star Wars purchase I wasn't prepared for this. Now I'm browsing the whole site to see if there are enough sets that interest me. Edit: Spending $150 doesn't get you two free figs, does it? No it doesn't unfortunately. Sets on sale 10212 - Imperial Shuttle 25% off 10221 - Super Star Destroyer 25% off 7929 - Battle of Naboo - 10% off 7956 - Ewok Attack - 10% off 7961 - Dart Maul Sith Infiltrator - 10% off 7962 - Podracers - 10% off 7964 - Republic Frigate - 10% off As it was mentioned previously that the Shuttle and SSD would be 25% off in the States, I am assuming these discounts will be universal Hope this has been some help EDIT: Actually, any order over $100 got me the bonus goodies. Did not have to be any Star Wars included Edited May 3, 2012 by TheDarkness Quote
Lobot Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 Sets on sale 10212 - Imperial Shuttle 25% off 10221 - Super Star Destroyer 25% off *snip* I think these are 20% off, rather than 25%! Still good deals though, shame I have both of them. All of the other reduced prices are still more expensive than the usual Amazon price....I'm still undecided. Quote
