***The Official OcUK Lego Thread***

Excuse the shoddy picture but this is turning out to be pretty big

I've started to like the Star Wars buildable figures. Not because they are Lego (as they really are on the very limit of what can be called Lego) but because they are just cool.

However, most of the second wave released look pants. Kylo Ren is probably the only one worth having, plus maybe the Stormtrooper.

Vader is awesome!, I'm gonna get Grievous, Cody and Jango after Christmas!! not sure about the Luke!!

I've only seen the Ren figure so far!! might have to look at the Series 2 stuff once I've seen the movie next week!!
 
The human characters just don't really 'work'. Rey, Finn and Poe just look all a bit odd. Kylo Ren looks cool, and then the Stormtrooper and Phasma are just 2 different colours of the same model.

I much prefer the earlier sets.
 
Girlfriend was getting annoyed with me because I said I didn't want anything for Christmas, so in the end I said I'd like Poe's X-Wing if she didn't mind.

Went to Smyths and bought these...;

Also, we made 12 Lego baubles last year, recently put the tree up so they are back on show;

Did a small minimum(ish) order to get the free C-3PO minifig :o

Nice to see Lego chucked a couple of extra free Winter Soldiers in too :)

Strangely can't find any of the new ones on Lego's own shop website!!!

And the other ones I want are out of stock!! :(

They are on the website. Under "what's new" New ones aren't released yet, 1st Jan they come out. For some reason Rey (75113) isn't listed. But not a fan of the Human characters, like Skeeter, but I may get captain Phasma.
 
The variation in price on the Star Wars Buildable Figures is hillarious. From £15 to £30 for different versions of the same thing, just based on the character.

I think I'm going to grab one of the cheaper ones to see what I think. Stomtrooper it is.

Edit: Although I've just seen how big Grievous is! Argh!
