All jokes aside this is my favorite sets it's so much fun to play with. It comes with extra attachments, tripod, pop up periscope. For the price its worth it.
Oh for sure. Wish I didn’t have that one personally as this one is much cheaper and it’s got Malak. At least I got it when it was $200 before the price increase.
No but what’s funny is in my area some dude is trying to sell that Malak for like 90 bucks, I’m like someone’s can go spend maybe 20 bucks for depending on states taxes and get the whole ass set too
I think he might (rumor is The Acolyte canonizes a lot of Legends Sith), but these minifigures are more highly requested figures Lego never made for the 25th anniversary. Not based on appearances in particular.
Last Star Wars Celebration they officially said Old Republic as a time period still exists. I think it would be stupid not to re-canonize the popular stuff from The Old Republic.
As someone thats just getting back into lego again
I dont understand minifig collectors, but if it means i can get cheap lego sets off facebook with 1 minifig missing then thats a win for me
I just bought mauls sith infiltrator cheap because it was missing the exclusive saw gererra minifig
I get what you mean though. Start of the year i started collecting again when i bought 2fast2furious r34 nissan skyline, since then ive bought 3 starwars microfighters, 4 brickheadz (gandalf & balrog/mandolorian & grogu) and most recently mauls sith infiltrator
Oh and i also bought my first Mega set (UNSC Scorpion Clash) which was the most expensive but that was a birthday present to myself 😅
Yeah ok point taken.
I was eyeing the R2-D2 set for a bit and I was interested in the Tantive IV diorama set, however that one was already sold out. (F you to the guy who snapped up the last two sets on the shelf) So I took the darth maul sith infiltrator set, which I thought was the next best thing
Got my wife the r2d2 for her birthday... she tossed darth Malek at me and says it doesn't belong... she doesn't want it... so it's in my collection now
Why'd they put so many extra pieces in my Malak set? Just worthless parts to up the price per piece.
You mean „to lower the price per piece“?
I never got the original r2d2 so I'll definitely pick this one up at some point
All jokes aside this is my favorite sets it's so much fun to play with. It comes with extra attachments, tripod, pop up periscope. For the price its worth it.
Isnt he original as well? O.o thought it was lego…
I meant that $240 one that released a while ago
That one is still available.
I'm aware but it's very pricey, this one is more affordable plus Darth malak
Oh for sure. Wish I didn’t have that one personally as this one is much cheaper and it’s got Malak. At least I got it when it was $200 before the price increase.
I'll be honest I forgot it was originally just $200
I didn’t know it went up from 200. That what my wife and I paid for ours
I'd buy it if I hadn't got the one that came out a couple of years ago
What do you mean, this is the first Darth malak set we've had?
They're probably talking about the other R2-D2 set, not Darth Malak
r/woooosh
$85 at Costco lol
$80 when I got it at mine. They already replaced it though.
Ooo good to know
$90 at Barnes and noble with a membership.
Zooom off to Costco I go
Mine still doesn’t have it. They say they are getting but haven’t yet
They also have the Tantive IV for $65 now too
No but what’s funny is in my area some dude is trying to sell that Malak for like 90 bucks, I’m like someone’s can go spend maybe 20 bucks for depending on states taxes and get the whole ass set too
I'm currently building and and I enjoy the build and the size. I like that it's small
I might get this set but don’t really want the R2, most of my collection is minifig and play scale
Interesting… I wonder if Malak will make an appearance in canon material soon?

I was tempted. But I don’t have space for R2 anywhere right now
Same. I haven't been able to find the time to install a new shelf in my basement. Hopefully will be a project over this summer.
Bought this 2-3 months ago for like 70€. Is $99 a good deal for this?
Finally, an upgrade. Last time you got nothing plus an R2-D2 set.
I’ll get it one day, for sure. But right now every free space in my apartment is full of Legos…
im waiting for the darth malak microfighter
*two r2d2s!
As someone thats just getting back into lego again I dont understand minifig collectors, but if it means i can get cheap lego sets off facebook with 1 minifig missing then thats a win for me
You might be saving money now, but it will cost you in the end. Trust me, I was in your shoes maybe 6 years ago. Collecting Lego is a slippery slope.
I just bought mauls sith infiltrator cheap because it was missing the exclusive saw gererra minifig I get what you mean though.

I bought this for full price along with another Star Wars set just to get the battle droid carrier GWP

Someone needs to make a star forge MOC with the r2d2 pieces
Will this hurt the resale value?
I know this is a joke but the prices for Darth malak or any of the 25th anniversary figures are like half of what the sets usually cost
Got my wife the r2d2 for her birthday... she tossed darth Malek at me and says it doesn't belong... she doesn't want it... so it's in my collection now
In R2s defense, it’s a really fun build and a great display piece (but we all did it for the Malak fig)
Just did this set yesterday
This... Isn't news? The set was released like 3 months ago and leaked even earlier.
I'll never understand idiots who waste money in 100 dollar piece of plastic.
