    Not going to buy it, but I'm super impressed with that Tiger build.

    Those new "limb" pieces showcased in the new Ninjago sets (also in the Tiger's hind limbs, it seems) are super frustrating. Should've been a new joint mechanism, instead of a static piece. Although, I guess they are a step up from the 45-degree brackets they've been using up until this point for the same general purpose.

    Regarding the AT AT, the problem isn't really going to affect me since I don't plan to dismantle it and even if I have to (like for transport or storage) keeping a subassembly assembled
    won't be and issue. Still, I agree that it's something contrary to the spirit of Lego and annoying, Lego sets should be able to be built and disassembled at will.

    Ahsoka looks particularly well done. And also she's #150 and was the fan vote for that number, so that's kinda special.

    Ah, I did not know that there was a fan vote for that number. Cool!

    While I appreciate the effort, the round floofy head of a red panda is not easy to translate to lego, but this really feels like those old timey paintings with the really weirdly drawn animals. :lol

    "Oh yes absolutely!"

    I like the Snow Warrior a lot, and will probably try and get one. I think I can pass on the rest though.
