You're teleported to Picrel with 50 bucks in hand. What are you getting? You won't be able to resell it or get fag clout for owning figs that are rare in the present day.
I had at least one of each in the bottom row, luke's landspeeder, the endor set and the escape pod (best sandtrooper btw).I know I had phase 1 Gree but I don't think I had the geonisan canon.Without fig value in mind.... it'd be between the geonosian starfighter and the n1. The V-wing is also a really neat set.
>>11646434Dang I miss this era so much. I had the V-Wing, Lamdspeeder, Geonosian fighter, and those three battle packs. I recently sold them all though. Back then I wanted the nightspeeder and geonosian cannon but never got them. I guess if I could go back I’d get one of them.
I'm usually not a fan of the non-blue ties, but this one is exactly at the cutoff point where it uses the classic design with slight updates and the grey/black colors.Absolute beauty but feels slightly inflated because of the potential chrome vader minifig it can have.
>>11646434Never really care about this era/the clone wars era but you can't go wrong with a black V-Wing and an N-1 starfighter.
>>116464342007-2014 was peak LSW
>>11646434All these sets have been remade much better, but probably the Naboo Starfighter cus I don't have one.
>>11646966What set in picrel got remade apart from luke‘s landspeeder and maybe the endor set and escape pod.And no, the imperial V-wing has never been remade
>>11646651I forgot this set existed. Also I know exactly what you‘re talking about and this almost sub theme of comfy imperial sets was beautiful.
>>11646434Picrel makes me remember how good box art and more specifically the header art used to be. every year was something new and it was cool. Now we literally have nothing.
>>11647007Filoni Wars shit is not canon.>t. OG trilogy chad
>>11647040Lucas was involved in creating the 3d clone wars.
>>11647034We should do a tier list for the general.Imo number one is either Maul or the 3 p1 clones. Luv me Rex, luv me 2014 Vader, adore me single clone helmet.
What sets are you guys getting for christmas? Mom bought me the coruscant gunship. It payed off being a good boy. Also the Mandr retards hating on this set are retarded. Tbf I only saw images and reviews but I doubt I’ll be dissapointed when I build it.
>>11647053gold logo era was when lego star wars was purely lego star wars vader helmet era was also decent, fleshies where in full force but the sets were pretty solid all aroundclone years sucked, the tcw minifigs were ugly as sin and the sets were fragilerex/ maul/ yoda years saw the sets improve, but the tcw figs still looked like ass, i know they got phased out at some point thoughtfa era was the point of no return, that's when lego started changing all their iconic helmets into the oversized monstrosities they are today and giving minifigs weird faux real faces that look like shiti dropped lego star wars somewhere around rogue - tlj, there were some decent rogue one sets but i just stopped caring around that point, disney had soured me on nuwars and the sets were getting egregiously overpriced
>>11647070The clone wars figs are very nostalgic to me. And there are some genuinely good ones like Pre Vizsla, gree, fox. Apart from that only the faces look wonky and (if you don‘t find them charming in a way) take away from the figs. The figs themselves are what i think lego figs always should be: not overly detailed yet instantly recognisable whilst still being first and foremost lego. The starkiller fig comes to mind. I stopped collecting around the same time as well. Got back into it when the 501st battlepack came out. Stuck around for a while but went away again only to return a few months ago when I got gifted the new ahsokas starfighter.
>>11646434Whoa, that V-wing was the first Starwars set I ever purchased, actually first lego in general that wasn't gifted to me as a child. To be honest though, with 50 bucks at those prices, I'd go for the ewok set and a clone trooper/bike battle pack.
>>11647078Had the Ewok set. Man those scout troopers were so cool. The speeder builds as well. Still with my current interests in sw I‘d get a separatist set to have someone to fight the clones from the battlepack.
You now 'member the Quest for R2D2 Game
>>11647076iirc the tfu set was at the tail end of the vader helmet era, just before the tcw years
>>11647084Yeah but tell me this trooper doesn‘t fit the vibe
>>11647053That flame Vader will always be my favorite.It goes without saying that the Rey one is absolute rock-bottom tier, obviously.
>>11647064>What sets are you guys getting for christmas?You're usually not supposed to know this beforehand.That said I may have accidentally glimpsed 2 boxes that I wasn't supposed to see yet.
>>11647141Looks coolI‘d love to have a lego christmas village but exploring other themes outside star wars is out of my budget.>not supposed to knowWell I got a cool mom so I told her what set I wanted. I also got the torrent and plo‘s microfighter. There‘s a great deal going on so I got 2 free 501st specialist battlepacks with the purchase. Could have been 4 if I got 3 sets instead of the gunship.
>>11647136It is really cool. Goes with other rots merch as well.
>not even into Star Wars>keep buying discounted battle packs to build a huge army for my Ninjago chads to battleI'm sure I'm sinning mixing clones and troopers and marmaladorians together but oh well
>>11647205Eh, it's whatever. You can make up your own scenarios/headcanons about why they're teaming up.
>>11647205Post pics plis.
>marmaladorianskek>sinningNo, you're doing what we all wish we still could do. Moreso since you know they don't fit together.also >>11647211
>>11647211>>11647233not pictured:two dropship things with 8 zombie niggasa big spider mech thing and 4 other trooper guys (one is red) two yellow droids (these things are super fucking lame and it's gay as hell that lego considers them on par with minifigs, the "super" ones are super gay too) the yellow soldiers are my favorites but their pack was way too expensive even on sale so I shan't buy another. the blue guys are good too and I might buy another one or two of those, good price. also not pictured is their captain, I have his little weird microship thing
>>11647053I grew up with Vader helmet, clones, Rex, and Maul so those are my favorite I guess. Yoda was the beginning of the end and the point where Star Wars' soul would be sold>>11647083TCW era web games were so fucking good. I played the one they had to promote LSIII a lot. Not Lego but Path of the Jedi on starwars.com was also very fun. Sucks that stuff doesn’t exist anymore
>>11647084Didn't they put some early TCW sets in both packaging? I remember seeing Anakin's fighter with a Vader helmet box in Sears but I later got one with a clone helmet box
>>11647252I only know of this happening with that Anakin's starfighter.>>11647250Yoda did always feel off on the header but looking back that yoda's chronicles era wasn't that bad. Especially compared to the sovllessness of today. >LSIII web gameI have vivid memories of playing some sort of 2d game superimposed on LSIII. It was sort of like a demo and you'd see characters going into the third dimension and you couldn't follow. Please tell me you're talking about this and that it exists.
>>11647242Yeah the yellow soldiers (327th starcorps) are cool. We've been waiting to get them ever since the clone wars aired. Still, I'm a bit disappointed in the design. >yellow droids and super battle droidsB1s are sovl, I hope they never change them. The B2s you have are a new design, the old ones were sort of rare last coming out in like 2014 or sumn. Both great, don't hate sovl.
>>11647260Since Revenge of the Sith came out actually. The clone wars has the phase 1 variants featured prominently. Sadly doubt we'll ever get them.
>>11647250>>11647257It is as beautiful as the day I lost it.https://lostmediawiki.com/LEGO_Star_Wars_III:_The_Clone_Wars_Beta_(lost_massively_multiplayer_online_game;_2011-2013)
I have some 100 eurobucks to spend on lego star wars. I don't know if I should get a retired set (sealed) or one of the new ones. Thoughts?
>>11647257>>11647265Yeah this one. I guess it was like a multiplayer sidescroller type thing and you could go to the planets that would be in the actual video game. I don't remember what the objectives were but I think I would spend all day on on it because you couldn't save progress or maybe I'm mixing up with something else>>11647268old good new bad anon so... But that set will probably break with all the brown pieces
>>11647284I don't keep anything sealed. Apart from that one boxed ninjago cole minifig since it's already prebuilt and I don't need to think about storing it this way. What old set should I get in that price range? Also what's your collection like? Pics?
>>11647079Yeah I have a scout trooper from one of the small sets meant for 4 year olds and it's pretty nice. The only other scouts in the collection are my brother's 2 from the yellow head era where the helmets have visor holes and the lenses are printed on the yellow heads.I also like that set because Ewoks are cute.
>>11647308I really like the flesh heads that are like balaclavas but the yellow visor ones are sovl.
>>11647268>or one of the new ones.Which ones?Also like the other anon said, old good new bad.There are a few exceptions but they are few and rare.
>>11646434>2011Man that was a pretty shitty year, none of those sets are worth much now either
>>11647335Well I'm looking at a mandalorian starfighter for 80e sealed. Seems like a good buy considering the figs and the build itself isn't that bad. What do you think?
>>11647362I really like the ship itself, but the official lego version looks too off to me. Maybe I'll get it myself one day just so I can MOC it up.Also it's still up on the official lego website for 64,99e.My biggest gripes with it are the tail end-being angled weirdly, the front guns that don't feel properly integrated into the front. And the colors of the wings should be light gray like the rest of the ship instead of dark gray.
>>11647268 Considering most old sets are extremely overpriced because they have one Glup Shitto fig in them, I'd go with the current catalogue. Just not worth it paying 3 times the retail price for these.
>>11647368Not that one. I'm talking about the one with gar saxon. Dude offered me it and the duel on mandalore for 95. Seems like a good deal.
>friend works for Savers>chilling at his house>asks me for help in basement>see massive bins>several are filled with lego minifigs onlyTurns out this madlad is 'buying' all the donated lego minifigs to resell on ebay/facebook marketplace. 500 IQ move tbqh.
>>11647381What's Savers?
>>11647383Kinda like goodwill.
Post figures
>>11647350They've held value at least. I recently sold the ones I had from OP for at least retail if not more and battle packs about double original retail and they were all used
>>11647064It’s a cool set. Especially cool for custom recoloring and then replacing the stud shooters with gunner pods
>>11647265Oh yeah! This was unreasonably cool for how basic it was.
>>11647368that official set is vomit inducing, no wonder it's been on sale for its entire release window
>>11647408I'm usually wary of costumizing sets but I did shorten the barrels on my aats
You gotta hand it to him. Nobody does large scale battle mocs better than him.
>>11647410Nothing ever lasts forever.
My friends works at Disneyland and gets 40% off of starwars Lego at the lego store there, but I just can’t pin point what I want, any suggestions?
>>11647404
>>11647477who
>>11647502Depends on how much you want to spend. The Venator is legendary and will remain so but if you're looking to get rich off it in 15 years time I don't think it's the right set for that. Something mid range I'd go for the Coruscant Gunship since it's the first one we've gotten since 2013 (excluding the UCS one) and it's about to retire at the end of december.
>>11647504What other sovl sw figs do you have?
>>11647504Oops I didnt realize this was the star wars thread
>>11647509Not an awful lot, but these are the ones that aren't currently temporarily stored.I thought the cape on boba fett was the only thing I added as a brat, until people posted the $1000 boba fett minifig here not too long ago.Arms, legs, waist, even the hands are all swapped out so I hope it still counts though lol.
>>11647404>>11647515That just happened to be an SW one, here's a non-SW one instead for your troubles.
>>11647519>Alice in the back behind the sovl minifigsIs this the most based anon on this board?
>>11647064If you like red then you'll like the coruscant gunship, but those stud shooters will never not look like shit.
>>11647523What a cool dude
Is it the default experience for bricklink orders to be caked in dust...?Only ordered from "extremely high-rated sellers" yet most of the bricks will look like pic-related every single time.
>>11647679This is why I usually bathe older bricks in my bathtub
Got this for half off today. Check your Walgreens boys.
Fuck your license slop
>>11646434Geonosian star fighter and the ARC trooper set would make me a happy camper.
>>11647744>proceeds to post city sloplol
>>11647725The only thing I found there was bootlego
>>11647725The only appeal of these is the calendar function. Getting it later at half off makes sense only if you're an investment faggot or will be opening it next christmas. The contents themselves arent worth even the discounted price.
>>11647670Yeah... the doors opening to only the one side is also a bummer, but mendable.
>>11647679>Like New
>>11647725still too expensive for what it is
What’s your favourite clone minifig in the following categories:>in general>one you own?
>>11648051Fav I own is probably phase 2 cody or phase 2rex. I had the original p2 rex but I lost it (fml). In general probably phase 1 fox.
>>11648051>zoomie shills will really defend this to their last breath
My clone base moc, have different clone factions running around
>>11648180
I can't get this fucking thing out of my head.$430 aud (something like $280usd) is the cheapest I can find it but that's the most I've ever paid for a set.God fucking damnit.
>>11648240The only thing you have to worry about is falling down a slippery slope. This set was $300 so it's not as bad as you think. I've paid more than 4x that for a few sets
>>116464347-14
>>11648180>>11648181Very nice stuff anon.
>>11648240>I can't get this fucking thing out of my head.Then get it. The longer you wait, the more expensive it'll get.
>>11648246What set could you have possibly spent $1200 on
>>11648594Some aftermarket shit can be crazy expensive when you want it new/sealed in box, not even just star wars shit.
>>11648180But where do they shit?
>>11648599I want more treads
>>11648180>>11648181I'm parted when it comes to clone bases. On the one side I have nostalgia for them, being that they were what everyone was building during te golden age of lego sw; and on the other I have fatigue since there are so many and most just look the same.Yours has sovl and I like it. The shot with rex facing the droideka is kino. You should try building some kind of trans clear blue sphere around the droideka to act as a shield. Also the trooper going up in flames is really cool. Post moar.>>11648063That is nobody's favourite clone. >>11648240I really like these modular type sets but Star Wars is already causing me tremendous financial loss.
>>11648599I missed out on the UCS slave one / temple of airjitzu (70751) because I thought investing in DC sets was smart because the figs had a lot of arm printing. Fast forward to now and nobody wants starfire or beast boy.
>>11648729I focused mostly on Ninjago and got that Temple of Airjutsu. It's probably my favorite set. I've based my display around it and the other Ninjago buildings.
>>11648857Another reason for me to rue my decision. I never was really into Ninjago to be fair. I do have picrel and a bunch of old keychains that I got as a gift
I bought this and the duel on mandalore for 95 Eurodollars. I really like the Gar Saxon minifig and I desperately needed a new maul. The last one I got was the mechanical legs one in 2012.How did I do price wise?
>>11648872Also why the fuck is the last republic fighter tank so cheap on the aftermarket two years after retirement? Retail was 45e and now it's going for 35e?Also why is the previous iteration that was iirc denoted as the shittiest set ever now going for more than double the retail price?
>>11648865The new big 15th set looks pretty fun too, and I like the option to roll it out. $100 more than the Temple was tho.
>>11648873Old good new bad
>>11648873those plastic pauldrons and kamas and pistols are pure sovl compared to the printed bullshit they ruined clone minifigs with. I will never buy a set with those trash overprinted clones without the black hips
>>11648907Honestly, I'm just pissed they didn't leave them out. I get not giving us those or cloth ones but dude don't ruin my fucking minifigure with a printed kama.>>11648901Explain how the flash speeder pretty much depreciated in value then. Also both of these tanks are (((new)))
>>11648900Imagine they made a modular-type star wars line. Maybe 3 coruscant sets that go together. Lower levels, senate, jedi temple.Theed with Padme's grave, the palace, the hangar baysWould be kino and black boxxxxed and cost 10000000 goybux
>>11648873Holy mogged.
>>11649051the tank is pretty small in universe. The first one is muh nostalgic and a good set but it's way oversized
>>11648594I only buy sets CIB. Not necessarily new but only with the box.
>>11648873Idk why it's so cheap, because it's one of the best sets of the last five years. I picked up six sealed copies for 200 usd.
Picked up one of these bad boys sealed, the build was fucking kino. They need to do some more Kashyyyk sets soon.
>>11648051>in generalPhase 2 Gree>one you own?Phase 2 GreePhase 2 Wolffe will dethrone him when they make him unless they butcher him.
>>11648051the open visor helmets will always be the best they look the most like lego, and not some attempt at making it look like the cartoon
>>11647268It depends on what you want anon, I generally wouldn't recommend buying super retired Lego unless there is figures or a build you doubt they are going to make again or you really just need it because our always wanted it as a kid.There are some retired Lego sets that are affordable and yet contain kino figures you can't get anymore that id recommend getting if you have the itch for it:>7655>9491>75001
Do you guys think I should give up on building a giant Kamino moc? I just think of you can't simulate the waves, sky and rain then there's no point since that is what makes it my favorite planet in the first place.
>>11646434Buy as many of those little mini sets as I can, those were always my favorite.Either that or that Naboo fighter that has a fuckton of chrome parts, that shit was awesome too.
>>11649121had picrel, never really was too interested in open visor clones. Geoosian cannon is kino tho but sealed I wouldn't call it affordable.>>11649124the water you can do. Use trans clear 1x1s and add some clear white and similar colours. Build a tall wave, it would look kino.>>11649126Picrel n1 has no chrome pieces what so ever>>11649108troopers are meh desu.
>>11649146>Geoosian cannon is kino tho but sealed I wouldn't call it affordable.I got a mint box sealed for $60, you should be able to find a damaged box one for less.
What is your favourite non clone minifigs though? For me it's picrel.
>>11649223Also picrel.
>>11648873they had them on sale black friday, scalpers scooped them all up thinking they would sell them for more but no one wanted them anyways lolI remember going to target for black friday I think it was 2 years ago and seeing some guy buying like 20 of these stupid tanks, it's a shitty set too.
>>11649230Based Jango enjoyer
What's Boba Fett's starship's name, again?
>>11649292I already got warned for calling a guy a twink earlier in the thread, so I don't want to risk it.
>>11649292Boba Fett's Starship™ has always been known to fans as "Boba Fett's Starship™" since the early days of the EU you fucking secondary
>>11649292Boba Fett's Anakin 1
