I haven't moved it since

Yeah I pick it up @ toyworld when they had 25% off, put this and 3 more on layby but got this one early

really? my 3 year old soon whooshes my TIE around and it's never had anything fall off. Infact, I've found it to be pretty sturdy.
completely different story when he swooshes the big ship from 5983 though, bits fall off that all the time.

Back on to the SW sets, has anyone seen the Y-Wing set anywhere? I have never seen it in any stores. Is it not available in AU?

Also there are some better images available of the sets due for release around June-ish http://www.brickset.com/browse/theme...me=Star%20Wars
The one I really want is the 9500 Sith Fighter. The minifigs with it look awesome. I'm also tempted by the new desert skiff and Jabba's palace as I don't have the older versions. And apart from the new planetary sets (which I just have to get) the rest of the new SW sets seem pretty meh to me.

I saw one left at Toys R Us during the 25% off a few weeks ago, it was on the highest possible shelf... maybe it's just for tall people.

Anyone excited by the S@H May the Fourth sale?

redav · 3rd May 2012, 10:51 AM

Haha... you'd be surprised what they stock. Yeah, one eBay order and a Bricklink order.

The Lego.com site has the Super Star Destroyer on sale for A$559. With free delivery. I had to pull the trigger.

Built the Mill Village Raid. Neat build although these pieces use the cheaper plastic, it's just not the same. Is that accross the whole range these days or is ABS only used in Denmark now?

Its a beautiful kit. Definitely want to see some photos of this behemoth

I couldn't justify spending the money on the SSD so I ordered the 10225 R2-D2 UCS set.

I noticed that there are pics of the next 3 mini planets up on brickset.com too. They can't be far away from release now.

Australia's lucky enough to get a high "Australia Tax" on Lego.
