'Problem' w/ the Star Destroyer is the size. It's SO big that where will you put it? At least the Death Star has a smaller footprint.
I've been running out of Tivo shows so I started to rewatch my HD Star Wars from old HBO HD when I had it. My son, who likes Star Wars but gets a bit scared, was able to watch a little of Empire Strikes Back w/ me. I had to explain all about Ep 4 to 6 and then back to Ep 1 to 3 and why it was that way. Ah, passing on the knowledge.

Death Star has landed. Holy shit. That is the heaviest, biggest LEGO box I've ever carried. Thank goodness for Amazon Prime.

Makes we want to stay home and program NXT all day long. My son and I broke out our NXT again and finally got the hang of programming it. We got the ball shooter to work. F'ing awesome. Trying to figure out if there's a way to combine this w/ the Death Star somehow. gizmodo.com/5944472/the-most-insane-lego-machine-ive-ever-seen

Millenium Falcon is also on sale. I highly recommend that one as I bought it and it was a blast to build.

CONGRATS! And well done on the pricing. Much better than mine, I think. Though now I believe I'd have to pay tax on it.
Now the race is on to see who finishes first... But mine is going under the tree so we won't start until Dec 26.

But mine is going under the tree so we won't start until Dec 26. LOL....well, I don't think I'll be opening it up anytime soon. Not even by Christmas probably. I have a lot going on the next few weekends, so it'll probably sit in our basement for a while. But I just couldn't pass up on such a great deal on it as that is almost as low as its ever been and there's a lot of talks that it will be discontinued soon. If that happens, the value of this set will go way up, especially if its still sealed.

My son and I played the PS3 LEGO LotR demo yesterday.
1) One of the best graphics I've seen in a LEGO game so far. Not just the cut scenes but that actual game itself. 2) Controls seem to be way more intuitive on the Wii vs PS3 but that could be due to the fact that we're just used to playing on the Wii. 3) REALLY fun game.
I was holding off getting LEGO City for the Wii U but if it comes close in graphics to this, it's a must title for our house. Granted, we love the LEGO titles.
