Ah yes, I know who's getting that 6212 and I'm very jealous.

I've seen the following at the Target toy sale recently and am wondering what were the RRPs of these if anyone can help. The prices I've spotted them for are in brackets:

8108 Mobile Devastator ($72)
7707 Striking Venom ($40)
7713 Bridge Walker vs. White Lightning ($64)
7721 Combat Crawler X2 ($40)

Should I grab them now at 20% off or not? I particularly want Combat Crawler for the mech inside as well as the Mobile Devastator. The Devastator somewhat annoys me b/c I think I'd only like the mech and not sure about the Devastator itself. However, I think I already have put it on layby at Myer for about $80.

I built Blade Titan and Cyclone Defender last night. Blade Titan's wonderful though he misses the waist articulation that Iron Condor has. However, his guns and colours are pretty damn cool.

Someone has been bitten by the Lego bug.

Exo-Force were the sets that got me back into Lego ina HUGE way. I've managed to get nearly all of the Exo sets bar a few I'm not too big on.That Devastator is ugly even for that price but I got tempted. The Combat Crawler is fantastic and so is the Bridge Walker (it has awesome armaments). Striking Venom is HUGE! In fact those you listed are all huge sets.

It's a pity you missed these ones:
- 7714 Golden Guardian
- 7712 Super Nova

Also you should check out some of the other great non Exo-Force sets:
- Mars Mission (especially the latest ones)
- 7037 Tower Raid (great siege tower)
- 7041 Troll Battle Wheel (TRU exclusive and its HUGE)

The X-Wing is excellent if a little overpriced, you missed the last sale TRU had on them for $59. It is a great model though with folding wings, ingenious building, compartment for lightsabre/rifle and R2D2 slot. Also comes with 6 minifigs: Luke Skywalker (pilot), Wedge (pilot), Han, Chewy, Leia and R2D2. They just added the minifigs to justify the expesive price. As with all Star Wars Lego sets, they are much bigger when built that they look in pictures.
