I said the same thing, then decided to wait until June and grab one when the Jor-el minifig promo goes up. That stagecoach looks really cool.
UK peeps, not sure if you know-- guy in lego shop told me all the new stuf is out today. Town, creator, and Galaxy Squad (maybe more, but not sure)
Also, I finished up my Hulk Buster MOC. Made me much more meaty, added a roof that unfolds like the top side armour parts. Really like him, overall. Want me to make a few SHIELD versions, maybe make them a bit smaller or more similar to the old design in white and dark blue. Anyways, here it is: All folded out: Feel like if I added a head to it he'd look like a red Transformers Prime Bulkhead, haha.
Wow, totally never noticed this thread before. Getting back into Lego myself, but mostly old Space stuff. Looks like most here are into the current sets. Anyone want to trade me some old Classic Space sets for TFs? Also kind of like Futuron and Space Police 1, though that was after my time... (Check my BST if you do!)
Definitely better, although you might have to wait it out a bit until demand dies down a bit. Prices are rather crazy for some of them. Average low price being $3.40-10. That red one is rather tempting. Crap he's on the list then.
Damn, that looks excellent. I want to build one now. Target had a buy one get one 50% off so I bought the Swarm Interceptor and Space Swarmer. Plus I get 5% off with my Target card and then another 5% off with my pharmacy rewards. Damn this slippery slope! The Galaxy Squad will definitely be there for my kid when he's ready. He can mix all the sets as those will be his to play with. In the meantime? Daddy gets to play with them.
Galaxy Squad is incredibly cool man. I started with one set and I'm losing control quickly. They grow on you before you know it.
Good thing targets by me are cleaned out. Sweet, I'm sure your son will love them. I'm hoping to do the same one of these days. This is why I quit Lego cold turkey. I love them to death, but before you know it you've spent hundreds and are surrounded by lego sets. Minifigures just staring at you from every corner, smiling, knowing you'll add to their ranks endlessly. Space sets, don't know what it is about them but you just can't resist them. Almost went crazy and bought a bunch of the larger sets from Spyrius, Futuron, and Classic. Managed to stop at some of the smaller classic space sets plus minifigures from the various space series.
Dammit dammit dammit. Went to another Target and couldn't resist buying the Vermin Vaporizer and the Bug Obliterator as well. Well at least it was buy one get one 50%, plus 5% off with my Target card and another 5% off with my pharmacy rewards. DAMN THIS SLIPPERY SLOPE!
Now that's cool. Yeah, the two sets seem awesome that they can detach seperate vehicles. I'll be building at least one set tonight, I think.
I got the Vaporizer and really want the Obliterator, but I may get the Eradicator Mech instead since they are both Orange. Truthfully though it's a very slippery slope like you said, and I'd be losing control very quickly if I start buying them left and right so I am trying to keep some kind of self control.
I might skip the Eradicator Mech as I have the Vaporizer already. Mech that stores in tank did it for me. The Obliterator's engineering is a marvel.
Dammit, I should've not bought the Space Swarmer and Swarm Interceptor and just gotten the Galactic Titan instead. I only want to get one set per color to save myself from the slippery slope. But MAN, the red team is just shafted in the sets. I guess I'd go for the Hive Crawler for the red team. The bug stuff doesn't really do much for me although I figure with all the sets combined, there's gotta be a good big bug vehicle to build.
