My kids knocked my UCS snowspeeder off my shelf yesterday. Smashed real good. Now it's with my smashed UCS AT-ST, smashed AT-AT and smashed Y-Wing from when the neighbour's kid pulled one of my shelves over when he was here a few weeks back.

sad

Ahh well, at least I can have some fun putting them all back together when I get a chance.

And I will laugh at your pain when you realise you are not allowed to open any of the boxes.

I will be prepared for that. However you will not be prepared for a lifetime of "I wish I'd gone, but instead I chose to remain behind at laugh at them. Woe is me."

Marcus - you seen that the new Death Star (US$400) in shop@home is AUD$400 (NZ$430) too?

http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Product.aspx?p=10188&cn=416&d=322

Amazing considering the MF is AUD$980 / NZ$1000 and only US$500.

Perhaps they've finally taken into account exchange rates.

That said I won't be buying it...saving for my trip.

Also, Marcus, Kmart in Aus / NZ is stocking the UCS falcon - plus their annual toy sale knocks $200 off the price.

Still, I cannot justify $800 on a LEGO set . sad

I read on FBTB that Lego are going to honour the orders placed on the cheaper price. I should've pounced on this one...

Curse my new found restraint.

Online at least, TRU.co.uk has the Hoth Base set (7666) in stock. I sooo want one, but I want the Gunship re-release later this month more.

Is the Hoth set being retired? haven't been able to find another one this week.

Other news:
Found a lego set at TRU, brought it up to the front counter, but was not allowed to buy it because it wasn't supposed to be out on the shelves until the new movie. Something about July 27th/midnightmadness? Thought that was a little annoying. I have better things to do than camp out at midnight for toys that will be on the shelves for the next 6-12 months.

Possible spoiler stuff (like I'd even know for certain, but what the heck, if you highlight this text and aren't happy about it, don't say you weren't warned.) The ship looked like a B-wing with a bulky centerblock, scrawny wings, and over-large cockpit. Came with Anakin, R2, and Aylra Secul-tentacle-head alien with blueish/green markings and a blob creature that looks like semi-sentient feces.

Other sets on the box were a V-Wing, new AT-TE, and Gunship(I think that was the 3rd one).
