OMG! THAT TUROB TANK AND AT-TE! They actually managed to make an accurately sized AT-RT! And that new Vader helmet mould! That StarScavenger with that rebuilt Battle Droid, OMG! And that amazing Hoth Set! This blows 2016 Winter right off its face, this is amazing! You have Prequel sets, you have Original Sets, you have Force Awakens sets, you got Rebels sets and you got EU sets!

Nerdgasm over.

That Hoth set at the end looks pretty tasty as well :)

Hell yeah! But it'll be expensive, and I'm imagining it'll be a store exclusive. (for some reason I'm thinking Myer...)

I'm really disappointed wit the Hoth set. I'll save final judgement until I see it in person but it just looks so underwhelming for a UCS set. Especially after the Slave I

I didn't realize it was USC set...

Well I've seen reviews for USC Slave 1, AT-OT and Dropship and Super Star Destroyer and I'm gonna say it right now, it has a lot to live up too.

I still think it looks great, not sure if USC quality though...

Yeah, they're labeling it as UCS.

Like I said, I'll wait to see it in person but there are sooooooo many other sets they could have done instead that fans would go nuts over. Home One, the Medical Frigate, Cloud City and most importantly, an updated Millennium Falcon!!!! I'd also like to see them release a TFA Star Destroyer.

What do you guys think the retail price for the Turbo Tank will be? That and Captain Rex's AT-TE.

How can the Assault on Hoth set be a UCS? It's just a load of other basic sets put together!! The Ewok Villiage isn't a UCS and it's wayyy better. To me a UCS piece is a pure showcase of an item (vehicle, craft or person/droid), the AoH set is just a really rad big playset, perhaps the label on the box will be changed upon release.
Rex's walker looks great and watching Rebels recently I said to my brother I hope that comes out in Lego. :) I love the A-wing v Tie Advanced set too.

The turbo tanks are big as well as the AT-TE's, $149.99 - $199.99 perhaps :confused:

Yeah, the Hoth set looks AWESOME in my opinion, but certainly not a USC set.

Cool, thanks! Really want that Turbo Tank! If I get the AT-TE I'd mod it to be an accurate AT-TE though, not the modified one. :o

So I found some of the retail prices in US.

USC Assault on Hoth $250 US
Captain Rex's AT-TE $120 US
Clone Turbo Tank $110 US
Encounter on Jakku $60 US
Star Scavenger $50 US
Eclipse Fighter $30 US
Vader's TIE Advanced vs A-Wing Starfighter $90 US
Resistance X-Wing (Can't remember, but it was said it was around the same price of Poe's X-Wing.)

So their prices converted into Auzzie dollars...
USC Assault on Hoth $346.46. This will likely be an exclusive to TRU so I'm guessing $400.

Captain Rex's AT-TE $166.30. I'm guessing this will make it's retail around $170.

Clone Turbo Tank $152.44. I'm guessing this will be $160.

Encounter on Jakku = $83.15. Estimating $90.

StarScavenger = $69.29. Estimating $70.

Eclipse Fighter = $41.57. Estimating either $40 or $45.

Vader's TIE Advanced vs A-Wing Starfighter = $124.72. Estimating $130

Resistance X-Wing Starfighter I'm guessing will retail for the same price or slightly cheaper than Poe's X-Wing.

This "set" may spell the end of UCS. And as a UCS collector that very much annoys me. :mad::(:confused::confused:

There is nothing UCS about this set. $400 is ridiculous. I don't even know where to start with what is wrong with it.

I mean, I originally thought that it was a mistake to label the 10188 Death Star as UCS, but over a few years it grew on me and now I think it is a brilliant set well worthy of the title (I only picked up the lay by this week, I managed to secure one of the last ones in Australia for retail price :)) but I can tell that this one won't change my mind. It's just so..... bitty.

Nice one getting one at retail this late since it stopped being advertised, I got mine from big W a few years ago but it's still in the box :(
I got the SSD after it and built that first which takes up a lot of room, after that I looked at the Death Star and thought, hmmm is it really a UCS, but I'm glad to read your positive thoughts on it. I would love to get a Death Star II at some stage, but yeah, might need to sell an organ or two.

It's not UCS in the technical detail, but the way it captures the feel of the movies Death Star scenes. It just does it all so well :)
