We haven't watched the series (not sure its still even on lol) in a few years. Stuck with it for the first 3? seasons i think, but the boys lost interest eventually

I have SOOOOO MANY of those damn spinner tops they sold too.

But yeah, excited for another LEGO movie!

My son loves Ninjago, so I've seen every episode. Last season was great. We're pumped for the movie!

Gonna have to get those minifigs!

Yet another possible hint at the long-rumored MF UCS set that (hopefully) is coming...

Anyone pick up a Saturn V? Looks great, but it's been out of stock online for a while.

Everything I've heard about this rumor always points to an $800 price point. So start selling some posters!

I think the price point is going to be enough to scare me away from buying, but I'm sure looking forward to drooling over it. Plus, the space for something that big... I like the coffee table display someone built but man alive, I don't know that i'd know where to put it. I haven't heard about this BB8 set, so it'll be cool to see if its that too. Either way, probably gonna be selling some limited paper to make way for limited plastic!

It'll be pricey, but damn I have to get it. Can't believe I passed on it before, not making that mistake again! (and still cheaper than the aftermarket right now lol)

That's my thing. I wont pay aftermarket prices, but I'll pay the likely $500 for a new set

I'm hoping its close to 500. With the Death Star going up $100 for essentially the same build, I would expect this to be at least $100 more also. I wasn't around for the 1st one, but I believe it was $500. So far I've seen rumored ranges of 600 to 800 for the new version. I really like the regular sized Falcon that's down to $115 most places. I never had the original regular sized one but this one is fun to play and modify. So far I've extended the legs and filled in the gap underneath the front sliding section of the roof.

It's going to be more than $500. You should just buy the lepin version since you can't tell them apart anyways, right?
