Great review, very

Great review, very comprehensive.

I really liked the little comment about the number 16 rod, too. I was always obsessed with the different sizes, dunno why.

As resident lego reviewer, I believe it's your duty to drop $400 and review this:

-no! I am not dropping $400 for that! Looks cool, yes, but I am not big on Lego dioramas. I used to be- Airports, Space Monorails, etc.- but that is way too over priced, and I wouldn't want to hang on to it after I got it.
Like all my other collections and the themes that I follow in them, I'm rather particular about what Lego sets I go after; I don't go after something I don't want just because it's in a line.

Now, if I were able to sell that Death Star diorama off afterwards, yeah, it might be worth it.

The largest sets from SW that I'm still pursuing is the Ultimate Collector's Series Imperial Star Destroyer (#10030) and Republic Cruiser (#7665).

That star destroyer is awesome...

Yeah, $400 is way too much for a lego set, even if it is a lego set of ultimate power.

pricey

i really used to love legos. and i often look at them when im in the toy section of target. but one look at the prices just stops me dead in my tracks and gives me doubts about whether or not it's wise to buy a set

I've been waiting for the price of the Clone Wars-'repaint' of the ARC-170 to drop from $60. Unfortunately, last time I did that two years ago with the Episode-III version, they disappeared faster than I expected and I missed my shot.
