@mucklefluga: I @replied him on Twitter. I gotta start saving. $250 isn't that bad considering the size and what you get when you compare it to other sets.

£200! That seems like a lot. Though I haven't bought Lego in a while, so maybe that's normal.

I kinda wish there'd been 10 or more extra pieces included. Then they could have made a big deal out of it being over 2000 pieces.

Nice recycling of droid arms to make a bridge. :)

After all these years my childhood dream finally comes true!

Everything looks pretty amazing except for Leia - she's so fat and ugly - are you kidding me, LEGO!?! I'm still getting this (for my nephew, of course).

$250 US which means it will be like $500 AU for some reason... (even though our dollar is worth around the same) :(

I love that nearly everyone detests the inclusion of Ewoks in ROTJ... yet still wants to play in their tree houses. This looks sweet, I have to agree. Well played, Lego. Well. Played.
