Now with the ROTS Lego... gotta predict which ones will be hard to find later and buy them early... for now, suggest get the ARC-170 Starfighter and Grievous vs. Obi-Wan sets... the Turbo Tank and Wookie sets should be able to get at bargain prices later. oh yea...anything with clones in it. ;D

I checked Liverpool argos and Wookie catamaran is selling for 33% less, so now about GBP26.66 instead of GBP40.
As you predicted, Grevious Vs Obi-Wan set which was selling for GBP10 has sold out. Only TIE fighter (with light-up darth vader figure) and Anakin starfighter left. Each now selling for GBP10 too.

Only TIE fighter (with light-up darth vader figure) and Anakin starfighter left. Each now selling for GBP10 too. Wow, those are great prices! UK being in EU subject to no taxes? About half Malaysian price! So cheap! I'm still awaiting better prices locally or nearby for Anakin's starfighter and the Grievous vs. Obi-Wan set (fortunately stocks quite plentiful still - obscene prices perhaps?). Ah, didn't realise the following Lego Battle of Geonosis pics haven't been posted here earlier, so enjoy... Jedi lead Republic Clones to invade Geonosis. Anakin & Obi-Wan lead the fray. Clones exit from the Republic Gunship. Separatist Droid Armies attend to the invaders. Count Dooku send Destroyer Droids and Super Battle Droids headfirst into the fray. An ATT tank takes aim whilst a Starfighter Droid prepares to launch. Republic Gunship discharges the transport module and takes off after the Starfighter Droid, seen here pursuing through the red skies of Geonosis A Republic AT-TE engages the Separatists and blows the top off the ATT. A number of droids nearby of crushed by combined Jedi and Clone forces. Behind, the Gunship transport module reverts to a mobile base of operations for the Clone army. What will happen next? Stay tuned (gotta transfer some pics across) for updates. Also coming soon: Battle of Hoth!

Hey, I don't actually have that set with the Emperor on his throne... but I've got this re-enactment from ROTS: "Lord Vader, can you hear me?"*** Imperial March anthem *** "The Sith shall once again rule the galaxy and we shall have peace...""Execute Order 66"

Battle of Hoth... Lego style! Imperial forces prepare to invade the Rebels on Hoth... An Imperial AT-AT leads the attack on the Rebels. An AT-ST and Snowtroopers on foot providing support. Rebels mount ground defenses with surface cannons. A pair of Snowspeeders rush in attacking the AT-AT. One snowspeeder fires a tow cable into the AT-ATs legs... ... the risky maneuver succeeds! The massive AT-AT collaspes sideways on the AT-ST. Rebel cheer on! A Wampa expects to be well-fed with Imperials tonight...

oh sweet AT-AT and AT-ST. Are they still on sale in Aus? Don't think so. The major retailers tend to clear old stock to make way for new releases every year. Same in UK I assume. I think the AT-AT came out in 2003.
