Finished the Death Star tonight - Absolutely epic!
Anyone who's on the fence over this set, buy it. There's just so much going on everywhere you look.
My only critism, missing & incorrect bricks!!! Had to substitute two or three from my spares box and several pieces where supplied the wrong colour (too many dark grey not enough light grey on one of the blast doors. But on the whole, brilliant.

WANT!!!!! So epic!
 
I love putting sets together, but I don't know if I could handle something like the Death Star, that looks tiring just viewing the pics. Awesome indeed Gothikus.
 
BTW, anyone try using the spring2013 $25 off code on any lego sets yet? I was going to use it to get the Sith Fury and the shipping was 25 bucks, meaning its still cheaper at Wally World. :lol

Was thinking of using the code to get a Lego set but than rather use the $25 off on SS 1/6 Bossk or HT Luke.

I ended up using it to PO Yoda, worked much better, he must be coming in a midget box, the shipping wasn't outrageous. :lol
 
Sounds awesome! How much he cost total when using the $25 off? Lol midget box.

Like 89 with shipping or something like that, of course once I placed the order it went back to $74.99 and said contact them for a firm shipping quote. :lol

Lol I see. I was thinking of ordering Yoda. Searching for a original one but the prices are skyrocket. I'm watching one on eBay but if I lose the bid ill just Pre-order this and use the $25 off.
 
FLOSI, had they not already release Bespin and it is ridiculously expensive now, I would be probably falling into the playset trap.

Anyone on here have Bespin?

The good thing is the wife likes to build these things with me; the bad, we are running low on room and they are addictive.

I really want at least one Ultimate one...thinking th B-Wing since it was the most recent.

I got the Bespin set when it first came out years ago and it's a great playset.:woo It's only gotten better over the years as I have added new updated better minifigs to it like Boba, :vader, :stormtroo, :r2d2line and especially the new fleshtone Lobot. Also, the Slave I looks great sitting on the landing platform.:rock2
 
In an attempt to offset the obvious environmental damage caused by blowing up whole planets, the Empire decided to instal an "Eco Green Roof" on the Death Star. It also provided space for Lt. Phineous' flock of Aldorian Sheep which, to be fair, had been causing havoc on deck D27/12b!

Well I picked up a UCS Imperial Shuttle on Ebay for $300. Considering the original price was 259 (and many are going for more than 300) I thought this was fair.

Going through this thread makes me want to pick up a few sets myself. Is there like ''Army building'' sets out there? Like a set with just stormie minifigs?
