[Crusader]

Title says it all. U.S. Shop at Home is listing the Twilight at 50% off for $49.99. Not a bad deal.

Okay, everyone who is STILL on the fence, this set is a fun build and the finished model ends up pretty nice. At 50% get this now!

For you hopelessly lazy parts-monkies out there who are still on the fence: 7680 inventory at Peeron.

Me, I don't know. I don't know that I need more large gray plates right now. I'm still gonna wait a bit...but thanks for the heads-up Crusader.

It's 50% less in the European countries (I tested Germany and UK) Shop at Home as well

I almost bought this when it on sale at TRU ($70 I think). I decided against it then. I'll order 1 at $50. And for those following the scalping thread, it's for me.

I just changed the title of this thread, since this deal is also available for Canadians shoppers too. With Andi's post, I think that pretty much covers it.

Does anyone happen to know if this sale's good in-store, as well?

I ordered mine over the phone (was looking for some castle sets which wound up being sold out ) and the customer service rep said the Twilight was one of the weekly specials, so I'd advise picking one up sooner rather than later.

Yes, this sale is going on in the Lego stores. When I called to have one put on hold for me, the manager kind of laughed and said, "Don't worry, they aren't going anywhere. There's a reason it's half off." So take that as you will, but I wonder if it's going to be permanently discounted.

[Morgan19]

Too funny, thanks for the info.

So I bit the bullet and got one yesterday, thanks to the tip from everyone here. It was a very tedious build for me for some reason (maybe all the fiddly Technic bits?), but in the end the ship's grown on me by leaps and bounds. I definitely would've had buyer's remorse at full price, but I feel pretty good about it at $50: it's a solid ship (contrary to its wobbliness during the build itself) with some neat features, and it's nice to have a ship with some "room" in it that isn't capital-sized. It swooshes surprisingly well, too, considering how big and heavy it is.

The design of the actual ship (not the LEGO set) might've been trying to hard to be the "next Falcon", but design flaws aside I'm actually liking both the ship and the set itself very much. So much so that I saw the Titanium version of it this morning and picked that up, too.

(There was a thread a while back about associating certain movies with set builds-- the Twilight for me will forever be linked to Traitor, since I had it on last night during the build. Good movie.)

This is no longer available in the UK.

My one chance to get it half price and I miss it.

Looks like the sale is over in the U.S.. It's not sold out but back to $99.99 on S@H and in the LEGO store in Virginia.
