All the summer sets look amazing. Hopefully Zellers will have their pre-christmas BOGO again this year, because it's the only way I'll be able to afford them. I also hope that LEGO takes into consideration that the Canadian dollar is once again worth MORE than the American, and at least narrow the rediculous gap between Canadian and American pricing.

I'm not holding my breath on that one, but a guy can hope.

It is stupid how we pay so much more. What happen to Wal-Mart's fight for us customers back in february?

Zellers is being wise these days. They have BOGO with exclusions all the time now. But last time's sale was lucky even though it had exclusions. There was a bug and all lego applied to the BOGO deal and not just atlantis, ben 10 and bionicle. So they weren't as wise that time.

Regardless, lego continues to raise prices in Canada when America raises prices too such as battle packs. America cost $10 and went up to $11. Canada cost $13 and went up to $12. Is our currency really that bad that causes a mark up of 2 times that of americans? We're now paying 1.4 X the amount for most sets. :(

Amazon France has most of the new wave of star wars now for sale. Seems a bit to early for summer. Just search up the names.

surprisingly, the currency rate between the United States and Canada doesn't matter. I was recently told by someone who works for Lego that it is the currency between the Danish Krone and the Canadian dollar that matters as we (Canada) gets their Lego from Denmark, not via the States. In addition, the American market is extremely overwhelming large relative to Canada. I mean look at the number of Lego stores and US AFOL-groups. Clearly, they command some sort of influence on pricing, not us.

but with that aside, I really do want to see a close-up of the final Wampa. Not sure if I'll get it but it would be cool to have it duke it out with the Yeti. =D

Received a lego email on the may the 4th be with you offer.





Any ideas what it will be?

We’ve finally received the first picture of the Limited Edition LEGO Star Wars 8128 Cad Bane’s Speeder! Although the picture is still blurry, we now have a idea of what the ship would be like.

I see senate commandos :D . Another easy way to get them without buying the venator. Any idea what exclusive it will be to?

[yankeeken]

I believe it is a Target exclusive.

[superlegos]

the turbo tank looks great but i don't know what the features will be, seems like bits just open and close like the cockpits and the sides. I can see a handle so i would assume it can be carried by the republic dropship. I suppose thats why they made it with exclusive minifigures

LEGO 8128 Cad Bane's Speeder

Finally a first picture of cad bane's speeder! Now the wait is for the shuttle.

They have all been pushed back to June 1st now. The people who purchased them were lucky.

[clock4me]

I bet Lego asked Amazon.fr to remove them all until summer arrives.

P.S I don't know if this has been posted yet, but LEGO Star Wars Magnet Set: C-3PO, Princess Leia & Admiral Ackbar is now selling at lego shop @ home.

All off the sets are cool and Cad Banes speeder is the one in the last episode of star wars the clone wars season 1.

[legoboy123]

in cad banes speeder there are five minifigure-cad bane ; two senate comandos ; assasin droi (black) and i think the last is aurra sing

Its aayla secura. I don't really think we'll get her. We'll get Cad Bane, Shahan Alama, Senate Commando. The last figure looks more like a Black Elite Assassin Droid.

$50? Ouch. Anyways, the ship has many pieces from 8036 Separatist Shuttle. I'll be getting this for the 2 new minifigures commando captain and shahan. It should not be worth $50 when they added 2 exclusive figures which i'm sure the commando captain will be available in other sets later.

[swfan]

Not too into the ship but more to the figures making it a limited edition set (and thus jacking up the price). Lots of seats for the speeder but too many stickers. :(

[vynsane]

They look like generic enough stickers (read: not too specialized for the SW universe) that they could be useful in MOCs.
