The A-Wing looks like a recolor of the Vader's TIE vs. A-Wing. Thanks. I completely misinterpreted that set. You're right, that is ROTJ Lando, and not ESB Lando.

For me, the A Wing is stuck in that awkward position where, based on pieces/minifigures, it's undervalued at $29.99 but too expensive at $39.99. Why they refuse to price sets in $5 dollar increments once they cross $30 threshold is beyond me. Especially now when the PPP continues to rise. I think it would benefit them if they made the threshold $40 and priced some of these @ $34.99 (looking at you Tie Advanced, Anakin's Custom Starfighter). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Clayface figure is one case that I know where it was in the 5.00 increment range over 30. But, I agree that seems to be rare. 34.99 for that set seems a bit more fair. But, it does feel overvalued at 40.00. 28 minutes ago, carini26 said: I dunno...

Although, i'm sure Daenerys Targaryen will actually be the "real hero" of the film, and Han Solo her sidekick, with Chewy reduced to basically the Pluto of the trio. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll pick one up to build at discount--I've always liked the A-Wing, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some good Dark Red and Flesh pieces in new colors or that were previously harder to find. I threw the set in brickstock and saw that the average part value was about 2.5X retail right now. It'll probably go down. None of the minifigures are exclusive, but just the fact that you can get the new Death Star's Luke at a fairly cheap price is good.

pete411 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Just like most of everyone else on here, picking up the A-Wing for my personal collection if it's on sale (this week). I need the Lando figure and intend to have a small fleet of A-Wings with the three being released since 2013. The 2013 A-Wing was one of my first 3rd party purchases coming out of the dark ages. Picked it up for RRP back in 2015 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked it up for RRP back in 2015 It's 20% off RRP at TRU.com right now. It would meet the free shipping criteria too... I did download the instructions on bricklink, trying to figure if I could just grab a few pieces to modify the 2013 version, and its significally different to where you might as well just buy the set. The build is also much better and id say it's easily the best version yet. The Landspeeder and new Desert Skiff are the same way with each being the better versions. I have yet to buy either, but i'm tempted to just buy the new a-wing at the discount. I'm sure we might see this cheaper next years presidents day clearance, but by just 5.00 or so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoroakenfelder Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I grabbed a skiff at the legoland discovery center with my annual pass discount. It's not going to replace the 9496 that I built with my daughter when she was 3 and I had no other LEGO in the house. Luckily, there were 2 skiffs in that scene.

Popular Post nolanfan34 Posted February 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2017 My son and I were checking out some of the 2017 set pictures. He was mad when he saw the Quadjumper set. I asked why. "Dad, one of those figures is exclusive to a Lego book I bought!" I asked why is that bad. "Because now if they have another one, the value will go down!" He's 8. Never been so proud. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biking_tiger Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I like it. It's not "stock up as an army-builder" good, but the figure selection for the price is amazing (yes, I know they won't be uber-valuable for parter-outers, but this is the collector speaking). I'm stoked to get a 4-Lom mini. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskers1236 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Love the idea that a battle pack can just be a collection of a theme(bounty hunters in this case) instead of just "bad generic guys" vs "good generic guys". If they would start making these as more companion packs to add named figures that we don't have to the Lego SW universe it would be great. Make a Mos Eisley "battle pack" with characters we haven't gotten yet like the Imperial Spy, cantina aliens, etc. I like army builders as well, but a curveball like this one is great to add new figures to collections without lego forcing out a terrible set that makes no sense just to throw in an exclusive figure. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
