I saw this actually about 2 weeks ago at a TRU on my lunch break.  I didn't know it was exclusive or out a little early.  I did look at it and thought it was really, really cool.  But I don't have the space or money to collect the LEGOs too.

I don't think it's much of an exclusive since most of the set is a rehash. I won't buy it unless it went on clearance and it'd have to be pretty low to beat the $10 I spent on the Shuttle.

Anybody out there end up grabbing this set?  I've been so tempted a couple times since I don't have the original, but the price has stopped me everytime.  $70CDN - it's too much. Sadly, because this is a TRU exclusive, it'll likely never drop in price either.

I've been holding off on it myself, since I've got the same set from before.  I guess this ones got some different Stormtroopers though, I think.  No idea what's different about them though.  Anyone know?  Travis?  Jim?

Price likely won't drop at TRU, but have you scoped out eBay Jesse?  Sometimes you can find a little better deal on there...

Yeah, the Stormies have waist and knee paint.



Also, Vader's face no longer has eyebrows, Palpatine is grey colored, and the Imp. Officers are peach colored. Those are all the changes to the minifigs, I also believe slight modifications were made to the Shuttle itself.

I too am waiting to get this set. I was going to, but I blew $250 this week. Perhaps in a few weeks when I can work up some more cash.

Well ****.  I didn't realize that all of 'em were different this time.  I'd only heard about the Stormies.  Crap.  Add yet another set to my list of needs then.  >:(
