***Official SW LEGO Thread***

I have a question. Normaly I only buy action figures, but I pick up the occasional lego set. Normally just the big ones. I'm not die-hard because legos are so expensive, but I've been debating on weather or not to by the jedi starfighter set. Does anybody have it? Is it worth the money? How's the Playability? How Fun Is It? Can you guys help me out? I don't have a lot of money, so $20.00 is a lot for me.

P.S.: I made a custom mace windu minifig, and a lego ship I call the "Slave Pod" (A mini version of the Slave 1 it's pretty cool, I think). I would post pics...If I knew how to post pics. Can you help me out with that too.

THANKS

-Yoda

 

I'll help. I have it. It Rocks!!Playability is good, but even better with Jango Fett's Slave 1. I would get if I were you.

 

I'd get the the Slave 1, but like I said I'm low on CA$H. I'll probably get the Jedi Starfighter now. Do you know how to post pics?

THANKS

-Yoda

 

I found the SF to have low playability, until I got the Slave 1, but that's just me.

Oh, and for pics, if you have the pics uploaded to brickshelf, or some website, just post [Image=(insert address here)] pics!!! (/image)

(replace the parentheses on the last tag with [].)

 

Thanks, I'll have to upload them to brickshelf. Since I got contradictory info, I might hold out for the Slave 1.

-Yoda

 

so your the guy who made the slave one pod, you didnt happen to make the falcon pod as well, didja?

 

I think you've got the wrong guy. I made a Slave Pod, but It's not on brickshelf yet. There's another Slave Pod out there? Can You Post link? No I have not made a Falcon Pod, I'll try, but it would probably come out cruddy.

-Yoda

 

im sorry for getting you mixed up with someone else, but ya, someone has made a Slave I pod and a Falcon pod, ill look for the links later

 

I just purchased the ISD..

 

How? From where?

--Not sure why I'm asking, I doubt I'll be able to get it--

 

Lego.com SHOP AT HOME has it.

Preordered mine yesterday.

 

Wahoo!More Clonetroopers!FBTb just gave another 2003 hint. I think it could be, THE AT_TE!!!

 

So far that rumor list seems to be holding pretty well. with this new clonetroopers hint, that will probably mean an AT-TE, and I'm practically 100% sure on jabba's palace

 

I dont think it qould be Jabbas Palace. It would be his Sail Barge, so it can go along with the skiff

 

What is the Star Destroyer going to cost us after the $270 offer is up? And are they charging shipping on it? Just trying to fit it in my Star Wars budget.

Just like to know because im going to Disney World in 5 month's and I don't want to put something this big on the credit card till after I get back.

 

Right now, LEGO is having no shipping on orders over $99. As for the price after the launch period is over, no one knows for sure, but a lot think it won't go much over $300.

Hope that helps.

 

I just got a confirmation of NO sailbarge of cantina

and the clonetrooper hint was the last one of the 2003 januari release

 

pretty sure it's going to be 300 bucks...

 

If you preorder it, it is $270, free of shipping.

If you want next day, it is $300.

I think I can wait 4 days for it.

 

Anybody else who ordered the ISD get a BACK ORDER E-mail from Shop@Lego.com?? I got one today...says they won't ship it until December 3th!!! I don't wanna wait that long!!

 

Yeah, I got that too.

It makes sense because the ISD doesn't come out until the 6th.

BTW,

Has anyone tried super gluing the lego bricks together? Because if I have to move the ISD, I don't want it to fall apart on me.

 

I didn't glue my RBR...it never falls apart...and I've taken it apart and put it back together about 7 times. In fact, I've never had that problem with any of the sets I have...which ones do you have that fall apart, eclipse?

 

Just press the parts together really hard. if you use glue, you'll never be able to use any of the parts for anything else, or for that matter, rebuild it!

 

for those of you who have ordered the Sd, did you use a credit card?

I think its kinda dumb that Lego Shop At Home doesnt accept money orders

 

Yeah, I used a credit card...I didn't even notice if they allowed any other kind of payment...I'm sure there might be something different over the phone..
