I think C-3PO looks awesome with his iconic posture captured so well. Getting him to pair with my R2-D2!

Do you think C-3PO looks creepy and cursed?
@sirw76309 күн бұрын
More like Jedi Rob - as in Rob your wallet. yes silly little pun, but true. $40 for this weak set for a non canon character is just out of hand. Any SW lego Collector with even a few Jedi could create this character quite easily. I honestly don't understand the perceived exclusivity. But hey, go pay Lego already to collect this "rare" figure!
@mattmakesthings9 күн бұрын
I think it’s a cool starfighter build as well so it doesn’t bother me a ton, but I’d definitely wait for a sale. I think the sarlac pit is way more egregiously priced. But c3PO and star destroyer aren’t too bad.

If anything, I’d get this for the ship. Jedi Bob is a fun callback and I’m glad they made him but not super appealing for me personally. I agree with you on the price, it needs a 20% discount at a minimum.

I'm always convinced that the only reason Lego wasn't expensive "Back then" is because for most fans "Back then" refers to when they were little and it was their parents complaining about how expensive Lego was.
@mattmakesthings17 күн бұрын
Well it’s definitely true that Lego has always been expensive. If you use inflation calculators, a lot of those older sets would still be pretty expensive today. I think it’s more that the increase in licensed sets and the use of more small pieces has meant that a lot of sets feel especially expensive for the price now-especially some lines like Star Wars when compared to others like botanical or ninjago.

The Monkey Kid tails are similar to the tail used for Rocket Raccoon in the Marvel sets, it fits over the legs part like the utility belt piece but also with a tail sticking out the back. The Barbarian fur collar part has been around for years too, I think it was first used for Kraven The Hunter, but many more since then.
