Title: Lego Maquettes
Post by: Jayson on October 6, 2006, 03:36 PM
They must be trying to steal some Kubrick business...

Too bad they don't ship until after the holidays...they would make a nice Christmas gift for my nephew.

$65 for a 6inch statue.  Seems a bit excessive.

Simply put, these are gonna rock.  I may have to search around for a good deal on a Vader preorder.  8)

I may just have to pick up that Vader...

Darth Vader Lego Maquette (http://shop.starwars.com/catalog/product.xml?product_id=405575&ReferrerID=CJADBN-00001)


That's odd.  SWS.com is listing this as unavailable now.  Is that their way of saying it's pre-sold out?  It seems stupid to completely take it off the website if it hasn't even shipped yet.  ???
Title: Re: Lego Maquettes
Post by: evenflow on February 27, 2007, 10:10 AM
It is possible for it to be pre-sold out. Taking it off prevents any mistakes in ordering or whatever problems they may encounter.

A picture of a Blackhole Stormtrooper Lego maquette is available on slave1.jp, for those interested.  Also, any word on the 'chase' heads to be randomly packed in the Vader and Stormtrooper?

Yep, another part of the GG World Tour 2007.

Thats kind of cool. I am passing on it, I told myself i was only allowed to order the Boba Fett.

Looks like there is a Luke X-Wing Pilot maquette that will be tandem-packed with a lego X-Wing this summer.  I tried to find more details on Lego's site, but no dice.

I saw pics of this as well and to me it's the best looking Maquette yet. I'll definitely be picking one up. Most likely i'll ebay off X-wing to recoup some of the cost...

Looks like those 'chase' heads will be: a scarred Anakin for the Vader maquette and a Han Solo for the Stormtrooper.  No word I can find on numbers.

Post by: evenflow on June 26, 2007, 09:05 AM
I wonder if the Boba Fett has a chase version. Its the only one i ordered.

Jeff kindly posted the following on the front page:

(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/8-07/tn_storm_maq.jpg) (http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/8-07/tn_vader_maq.jpg)

"Hyperspace members who missed out on the Darth Vader or Stormtrooper LEGO Maquettes will want to hang around their computers this weekend. On August 30th, StarWarsShop.com will be offering both maquettes exclusively to Hyperspace members for a limited time. After September 4th, any remaining units will be made available to the general public."


Has anyone else tried doing this?  They are now listed as in stock, I've logged into both my SW.com and SWS.com accounts and confirmed that I have a Hyperspace subscription, but I still can't seem to get the "add to cart" button to show up.  I want that Vader maquette so bad!  :-[

That is the same crap I had to do with the Mace maquette & got nowhere. I just tried with the Lego Vader & got the same crap routine, stupid system!  >:(

Sorry Jesse, I can't help you out.  :-\

Post by: JesseVader08 on September 4, 2007, 12:28 AM
What a stupid system.  I consider myself a semi-intelligent person, so I don't think I'm doing anything wrong - I followed the damn directions and it gets me nowhere.

I appreciate you trying Dale!
