| Just wondering but, does the Lego Grievous wheelbike actually roll? |
Not very well. The wheels themselves spin, but if you mean to actually push it along and rotate them, you may be disappointed. (I admit, the chase set isn't exactly the greatest LEGO's done; I mostly got it for the minifigs.)
Hey, got a great deal today. Jango's Slave 1 was £45, and reduced to £22. But the box was really bad, so it was cut in half again (the price, not the set) to £11. Score!
I'd like the Clone Turbo Tank sometime. I also like Jabba's Palace/Prize/Message. Nice way to get Boba Fett.

Yeah, I think the Jabba sets are criminally underrated. Jabba's Message has to be one of the best moves LEGO's made; C-3PO, R2, and Bib Fortuana all in the same set for $7. Now THAT's a good deal.
I heard from a friend of mine about a Plo Koon Minifig. Any down to earth facts about this? (He's in Finland BTW)

Does the Grievous minifig actually have 4 arms?
To answer the above questions: there is no legitamite Plo Kloon minifig. However, some minifig mods have been made for a Plo Kloon figure by fans, so that is probably how you heard of one.
And yes, the Grevious figure has four arms, of the battle droid variety.

| Hello everyone! On Topic. I would like to report, (if it isn't "old news"), that set 10144, "Sandcrawler" is now listed on Brickset! Unfortunately, though, there are no pictures yet, as it is still in the "not yet released" faze of existence. Off Topic. Brickset has undergone changes! Go check it out! Well, there's my first post in this topic! Thanks a lot! (And please let me know if this is old news or not) ~BioDude101 |
SWEET! I've been wanting a sandcrawler. I hope it comes with some new droids.
What new episode 3 sets would you like to see?
New commercial!
I just saw a commercial for the Clone Turbo Tank/Juggernaut. It looks pretty neat, plus it showed a clip from Revenge of the Brick!

Cool! I'm waiting to get the Juggernaut until after christmas - it's easy to find big sets for about half price at that time.
Can someone give me a pic of a [COLOR=red]Super Battle Droid, please? Moose out,

I just got a LEGO Clone Scout Walker. I will review it.
Price: FINALLY! A low-priced walker. 10/10
Minifigs: A Clone from Commander Neyo's Legion. Oh my gosh. 10/10
Set: The walker is really posable. But you need to put the walker in a certain position to stand it up right. There is a place to put the Clone's blaster. The gun moves. 8/10
Box: BORING.... I got the set because of a TRU display not the box. 6/10
Instructions: Easy to follow but it makes the pieces look darker. 9/10
Overall: Nice little set. Definatley a must by for Star Wars fans and army builders.
By the way, the Toys R Us display made wookie noises and laser sounds.

G-Man, I posted the parts a page or so back...I haven't seen a pic of a complete SBD mini-fig on the BZP "Safe" sites yet.
Anyways, I was at TRU a few days ago..scanned a Lego item and it came up "Star Wars Promo" anyone know what this promo was/is?

Sometimes I wish they had technic sets for Episode 3.
Episode I
Battle Droid, Destroyer Droid, Pit Droid.
Episode II
Jango Fett, Super Battle Droid
Episode IV-VI
Darth Vader, C-3PO, R2-D2, Stormtrooper
Now, for Episode III, they could have lots of Technic sets! Like a Clone Trooper, Commander Cody, General Grievous, stuff like that. Or even one of the Kashyyyk Camoflouge Clone Troopers with biker helmets.

Maybe it was a mini ARC 170 or TIE Interceptor. Whenmy brother got me one (how nice) it came up Star Wars PROMO. Go to legoshop.com for pics of a super battle droid.(If they still have a gunship in stock.) Oh and Black Widow, they are called BARC troopers not Kashyk Camaflouge troopers.

Whoopsies. Thanx man. Okay, weird. I guess you must have gotten a mini ARC 170 or TIE interceptor. I hope TLC renews it license, who wants to see a MB TIE Fighter? Moose out,

Ahh, okay. Man. if I knew it for the free mini, I would of tried and got the Droid Tri-fighter then...that would of been a better deal than the Mini-Jedi Starfighter.

I have a question, sorry if it's been answered or anything;
I went to K-mart the other day, and I saw the Clone Turbo Tank! It had Mace Windu with his purple lightsaber and everything, but when I pressed down his head, it turned blue! Is this normal?

I think the reason it changed blue, Gaaki; Lego used a blue LED instead of a purple or white LED. (Purple not being used because it uses up more power off the battery, than a red, blue, green or white one would.)
Aoi

No, it's not that... Purple LEDs are too large to fit in the Lightsaber.
Then why not half red and half blue?

As a matter of fact, even the Clone Pilots argue about which end of the Juggernaut is which. It can go both ways with equal ease.

And LED stands for Light Emitting Diode - it's a little chunk of semiconductor that gives out light when you run electricity through it. They are available in many colours, the most common being red and green. However, miniaturising them is not so easy. Red, green and to a certasin extent blue LEDs are cheap to miniaturise, but multiple-colour configurations, secondary colours or nonvisible light frequencies are much more expensive. They can go down to about 5mm in diameter.

Not really. It is a great set but the X-wing set is much better.
Anyone know where I could find SW Minifigures for sale besides E-Bay?
I wouldn't reccomend the ARC-170 for the price they're asking. But if it were $25 or even $30 I would be more likely to buy it. I just don't think it's worth the $40. Same with the Juggernaut. It looks more like a $50 to $60 or even $70 set. Not $90.

Wahoo! got my BM toy today..it was the Mini Jedi Starfighter. 
(Yaay, now I don't have to pay $18 for it...although I might pay that much for one in blue..)
Anyways, pretty nifty set...it even comes with a Mini-mini R2. well, okay. I might just be pushing it on that. It's just a spare Technic pin 1/2 and a white 1x1 plate.(which represents R2 on the Starfighter.) But it kinda looks like it could be R2...

Thanks, FPC. 
I'll just wait for another 20% off sale and I'll probably get it... But even then it'll be $135½ AUD...

Any other reliable stores? And how reliable is BrickLink? I checked it out, and it seemed pretty cool.

Sorry I couldn't pm you Bakuta, been rather busy.
Bricklink is pretty reliable, but you've gotta watch what store you're ordering from. Try something local, and try and do most of your shopping from one store.
Email the store owner even, and try and get some info on their reliability.

Not available in any sets yet.
That was found with a quick bricklink search. Though, I believe lego had a display
of Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter was made at one point, so some do exist..somewhere.
Though, the mold exists now...so eventually we'll get them in different colours.
