    Amazon Discounts Several LEGO Star Wars Sets up to 20%

    Amazon is applying 20% discount to a couple of LEGO Star Wars sets, putting them under the “worth getting at that price” threshold:

    That B-wing’s sale price of $39.99 should have been its regular price.

    UPDATE! Thanks to several people that have sent along the tip that there are several sets that are between 10-20% off, including this year’s AT-DP.

    Summer Star Wars Sets Available For Pre-Order On Amazon.com

    A quick break from Comic-Con to bring you a bit of sales news. Forum member psycho013 has alerted us to a pre sale on Amazon for the summer wave of Star Wars sets in the US. The Scout Fighter and Cantina sets are available at about a 15% discount.

    75057 B-Wing is still MIA for pre-order.

    Toy Fair Report: Set Videos

    In case you weren’t aware, FBTB has a YouTube channel. It’s where we stick our video assets. We don’t produce much and I keep threatening to do video reviews but never have the time to get around it. Or the nerve to put myself in front of a camera. Yesterday, I finished editing and uploading video footage I shot of at Toy Fair showing off some play features of some of the upcoming sets. They’re not too long, averaging about a minute and a half each, but you can see bells and whistles of the sets in motion.

    Enjoy!

    Toy Fair Report: LEGO Star Wars

    With practically every March-release set focusing on Episode III, the August wave gives us OT fans a great selection of sets. If you want to avoid spoilers for the Advent Calendar, they are listed last, so avoid scrolling any further past the Star Destroyer images. I’ll save the commentary for later, for now, enjoy the photo dump.

  • Summer 2014 LEGO Star Wars Set Names Revealed

    Summer 2014 LEGO Star Wars Set Names Revealed

    Hungarian online toy shop, ILSE LEGO MÁRKABOLT, has posted the set names, numbers, piece counts, and Hungarian pricing for the Summer 2014 LEGO Star Wars sets. No pictures yet, but with the various Toy Fairs around the world happening in the next few months, we should be getting a good look at the sets soon enough. Oddly enough, that site has posted ONLY 2014 sets for all themes. Which makes me question the legitimacy. I’m sure it will get sorted out sooner or later. So with that being said, take the list below with a grain of salt. Summary with estimated Euro prices below:

    • 75048 Phantom 20-30 EUR
    • 75049 Snowspeeder 278 pieces 30-40 EUR
    • 75050 B-wing 448 pieces 50-60 EUR
    • 75051 Jedi Hunter 490 pieces 60-70 EUR
    • 75052 Mos Eisley Cantina 615 pieces 70-80 EUR
    • 75053 The Ghost piece number unknown yet 90-100 EUR
    • 75054 AT-AT 1138 pieces 110EUR
    • 75055 Imperial Star Destroyer 120EUR

    With all the money I’m saving by not buying any of the January wave, I can double up on some of the OT goodness.

    Thank to Tomas from Groove Bricks for the heads up.
