after 10 months of scouring amazon/ebay/lowyat/BOM.....i finally complete my UCS collection...big thks to mykl aka zensuperstore  biggrin.gif
*
for your wallet's sake i hope you didnt pay his listed price for it. cos i saw it at retail less 10% a few times over the pass few wks.... tongue.gif

but then again, since this set is now officially retired and one of the shorter span UCS, still reasonable la the price...

Good morning... recently I found that my Lego Star Wars collection is still the largest theme in my Lego collection. This is despite my efforts over the past few months to get rid of those 'ugly ships' (as wifey refers them). I've regretfully sold off some off my UCS and vintage SW sets, but still all these remain... and photo does not include multiples and some others stashed away in secret places around the house.

I need help...  icon_question.gif

Recently bitten by SW bug and now thinking of building a small Stormtroopers army. doh.gif doh.gif  doh.gif  Hunted for Stormtroopers minifigs and am baffled by so many variants!! rclxub.gif

Can I check with the SW sifus here which is the 'best' variant? Link here to Brickset Stormtroopers

My regular BL seller offer me two pieces of chrome Stormtrooper for around 30 Euros each. Worth it? Is it nice? Will the chrome bits come off?

I also have this crazy idea to buy the Stormtrooper keychains and remove the keychain part, that will definitely leave a hole in the helmet right? Anyone done this?

Thanks in advance! notworthy.gif

Normally army building is 188 or 366.

Thanks for the tips guys!! notworthy.gif

Any preference which is 'better'? 188 or 366?  hmm.gif
*
which is better is subjective. tongue.gif

Amongst the 2, not much difference except the torso and the head (which you cant see after pakai helmet). My personal choice amongst stormies is the helmet only. since both are the same, whichever is chearper and can get in bulk for army building is preferred.


QUOTE(capm @ Dec 5 2013, 12:04 AM)
hmmm  hmm.gif ... will it be easier to get the 75023 Star Wars Advent Calendar to army build? or get 9489 or 75000 to army build the trooper? will this be cheaper than get the minifig only, some more got many other extra parts for MOC.
I'm noob to star wars sets, start learning now... hopefully don't get poison to it... flex.gif
*
army building means want many of the same minifigs. unless they have other projects for the other parts, or they sell their spare parts, normally ppl just bricklink.

Hey guys im new here and i've been following the lego thread for quite a long time . Im currently in UK and i saw the cuusoo BTTF set selling for 36pounds in their official store, is that consider expensive? Saw around 40boxes
*
I heard btff are sold in pharmacies and some other weird places in UK. and prob can get cheaper there. Is that true?


QUOTE(zoomckng @ Dec 5 2013, 10:34 AM)
Not cheap hobby to build sw army. Those figs r not cheap.

My advise wait for the new 2014 SW battle packs. With ALJ gone, I expect reduction in RRP
*
lego prices are not set by the distributor. they are set by the principal. the reduction in prices have been forthcoming for the past year now. TLG is trying to expand its reach. whoever that is taking the new distro rights is in for a good ride!

Update: LEGO Sales@Avenue-K

As of 8.35pm:
I guess it was luck as I told myself to drop by to check things out. New stocks just happen to come in!

Yes ample of LONE RANGER TRAIN@50%. Got one smile.gif.
Was told there are about 20 sets came in. When I left there are sets still on shelf.

STAR WARS ADVENT CALENDAR@50% in as well. One brader bought I believe about 20 sets of it. Wow! 4 sets on the LN train. Believe me he bought a lot. smile.gif Kudos to you bro!

Rest stock and discount remains mostly the same as reported earlier today.

Hope the above helps.
