Nice collection Paul. I have some of the same kits (older Technic) from when I was much younger. The older Technic of the 90's were really beautiful kits back then.

The monster fighters theme really doesn't appeal to me.

Pics of the R2D2 have been around for a while now, but I'm also really hanging for a look at the UCS B-Wing.

So, something about the BTTF deloreon will be produced? I can't really find it anywhere else but here at the moment;

I'd have to say though, on those pictures, I'd rather have a detailed interior than a battery box.

the one that was voted through cuusoo was the minifig scale one.
how lego proceeds with it is yet to be seen.
be nice if they do a whole line of BTTF inspired products, but theres every possibility they'll only do 1.. just have to wait and see.

No, nothing guaranteed. It's just reached 10,000 votes on Cuusoo which means it will officially get looked at by Lego now. They'd still have to secure a license and everything so it'd be next year at the earliest before we saw anything.

R2-D2 ordered, but $40 for delivery is a bit rich

Yeah, doesn't mean it will be made, just that they will look into it.
I'm still sad about how the Shaun of the Dead Winchester Pub was rejected, despite having support from Simon Pegg and reaching over 10,000 votes.

Picked that one up at the Target 20% off sale a few weeks back.

The model is a bit flimsy, so much so that when I went to move it the wings fell off, and when attempting to refit them the model exploded and had to be rebuilt.

I haven't moved it since

You're making it 'fly' around the room, aren't you?

I'm hanging out on receiving a Medieval Market Village in one delivery, another MMV with a Knight's Joust and Mill attack from the US and a bunch of the Collectible Minifig's from Canadia.
