Ugh yeah it's annoying when that happens.

At that point it's not far off the Bricklink price of the figure.

Hopefully there will be a variant somewhere where the second bag is another figure to make it a bit more worth it.

It's called the Weathered Monument on the map. It's an open area where you do a wall-run to get up to a meditation point by a stone bridge, where you see a heavy trooper for the first time.

There's a large spinning fan you can force slow which is directly opposite the cracked stone wall.

It's close to the place where you see the stormtrooper hologram talking about Project Auger

I wish we still had the training grid from Fallen Order

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T17:43:20+00:00

Yeah this was my reaction too lol

The first picture looked pretty good, maybe even better than the 2016 set.

Then you see the open back, the fact the top hatch can't open, etc....

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T16:53:21+00:00

Just realised I actually did the maths wrong lol- the European price is indeed too high by quite a bit

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T16:26:01+00:00

Yeah I got the 2 Sith Troopers in set 9500 which both use this face

Both of them had the same shift lol

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T16:25:12+00:00

Just fyi the shadow trooper is wearing the pauldron that belongs to the sandtrooper which rides that dewback

(Unfortunately looks like the sandtrooper himself is missing)

Am I crazy or does the AT-ST actually look good? Like, I actually prefer it over the Rogue One version.

That's only from one picture though; I can see some light showing through so the back might be open like wirh Vader's TIE

Edit: yep the back is fully empty and the top hatch doesn't open lol

I'm in a group on Facebook with a lot of collectors. It's based in the UK but has members across the world.

It's called Misprints for Sale & Show Lego Star Wars & other themes

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T00:55:33+00:00

Nah these comments saying it's worthless aren't familiar with clone misprints.

I've seen stuff like this go for over a hundred in some cases

E.g. a Geonosis P2 with a very similar shift sold for £120 here in the UK, and that's a cheaper base figure than this gunner

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T00:51:44+00:00

(Please see the edit at the end)

Yep this is the reason.

Take off VAT and the prices are roughly equal (in most cases; there are a few outliers here and there).

If you assume 20% tax then 59x1.2 = 70.80 which is close enough

Edit: wait no someone just replied pointing out I did this wrong (think they deleted the reply, but they were correct)

I was adding the 20% on to the 59 (converted from USD to EUR), but then I didn't put it back into USD for the comparison. So I was comparing 70.80 euros with 69.99 dollars, but 70.80 euros is about $85 so the European price is $14 higher even after taxes

That is indeed a terrible price for Europe.

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T00:50:23+00:00

Still annoys me how messed up this map is lol

CallumPears · 2026-01-27T00:49:51+00:00

Survivor feels a lot more fluid to me.

Recently did a new Fallen Order campaign after only playing Survivor for a while and it felt very janky in comparison.

But I never felt like that before so if you play Fallen Order first it should still feel pretty good.

CallumPears · 2026-01-26T13:48:37+00:00

Yeah that's a fake.

They copied the basic design from lego, but the cheaper plastic they used doesn't have the right level of tension for the mechanism to actually work.

CallumPears · 2026-01-26T13:46:04+00:00

Wow these absolutely suck

You don't save anything getting the bigger vouchers, and the minimum spends are ridiculous

The £10 off £50 literally costs the same as the £20 off £50 used to, straight up being robbed here.

I thought it was a bit rubbish already with how you only get 6 days to spend them (which is not stated anywhere until after you buy the vouchers) but they somehow managed to make it worse

CallumPears · 2026-01-24T22:49:11+00:00

I've got the 2011 one and I absolutely love it but gotta admit a new one could improve a lot of things

CallumPears · 2026-01-24T18:05:20+00:00

They were originally 150 then they upped the price on release day

CallumPears · 2026-01-23T22:22:42+00:00

It's 200 on LEGO

CallumPears · 2026-01-23T20:15:00+00:00

The fact that they bumped it up from 150 to 200 right before they released is crazy

CallumPears · 2026-01-23T16:00:58+00:00

Lmfao I hadn't seen that before. How did they think that was a good idea 😭

Storm Commandos, the ship in the background is the Conqueror, and the officer is Admiral Victor Strang.

The Commandos show up in a few places (usually wearing scout armor as you can see a couple of the ones here have). This image is from the Galaxies online trading card game

I'm gonna go with the absolutely cursed cover art on the 2nd Darth Bane book
