I would have thought there would be a Lego set thread but either there isn’t one or search has failed me (for the last time, admiral)

I have 3 of the ultimate collector sets:

the Imperial Star Destroyer and the Millenium Falcon. I really like em all. If I found out about these earlier maybe I’d have gotten the X-Wing and Blockade Runner. I have a regular series X-Wing that suffices though. Also a regular series Y-Wing and TIE Advanced. If money wasn’t tight I’d probably buy the Imperial Shuttle. Anyhow, I just saw they came out with the Super Star Destroyer in the past couple of months but I think I’d pass even if I had the spare $.

Sad to see the packaging has a fricken Clone trooper on it.

Anyone else collect these?

I wish I had the funds to collect these. The Executor looks fxcking amazing.

I say never release the originals. Keep the fans talking about something.

I wish they made more Technic sets. The Droideka was a neet piece of engineering.

My little brothers still have my old "first wave" sets, when all of the characters had the yellow heads. I should get those back...

Found this conversation so I’m officially bringing it back from the dead!

When I was younger, around age 8 or so when I got into Star Wars, I started getting lots of the Lego Star Wars sets. Years and years have passed but I still do get some every now and then and these days I’m able to get bigger sets than I would have back then.

On display right now I have the UCS Slave I, the 2020 AT-AT, Obi-Wan’s home, a TIE Fighter and an X-Wing. I still have some left from when I was younger but they’re put away in storage right now.

I’ve had my eye on the 10th Anniversary Battle of Endor set lately but boy is it pricey these days.

Move along, move along.
