Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
Was hoping to see this beauty somewhere at midnight but no such luck. Someone from the Aus/NZ site got his in New Zealand of all places. Anyone know when and where they are coming to USA? or Australia?

Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
Interesting - is this a polybag or minifigure pack?
Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
Looks like poly -- guessing TRU
Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
That's the c-3po variant from TFA, I believe a TRU special available with the blue ray bundle shortly after the movie is available.

Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
This is what is posted om thebrickfan website
"It was revealed a few a while back but there will be a polybag associated with Star Wars: The Force Awakens which is a C-3PO (5002948) minifigure polybag. As you can see, this version of C-3PO is a little different from the usual versions we’ve seen since has a red arm for some reason which will be revealed in the movie this December.
There are two different offers for the polybag in the US as far as I know. One is a LEGOLAND Florida special offer where purchases of $35 or more from September 7 to September 28 will net you on of these polybags. The other offer hasn’t been officially announced yet but I heard that it will be availble at Toys R Us with a certain purchase amount."

I'm actually impressed with this one. I'm liking the detail LEGO is starting to put on the figures now.
Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

This was recently revealed on starwars.com: (take note of the last sentence that I bolded)
Coming this December, from the award-winning writer and artist team of James Robinson and Tony Harris, Marvel's Star Wars Special: C-3PO #1. Part of the "Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens" publishing program, this one-shot will fill in some of the protocol droid's post ROTJ adventures, including the story behind his red arm.

Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
Is this going to be shinny gold or just molded in that tan color?
Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
molded in pearl gold unfortunately. someone already reviewed it on eurobricks.
Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
I just read the review. How disappointing that it's not chrome. The printing is great.
Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
I can count on my fingers the amount of parts that I have in chrome - old lightsaber hilts, cylinder piece from the old train shed, TC-14, and my chrome stormtrooper minifig. So I'm guessing Lego doesn't like to chrome parts at all due to some reason (reliability, cost, etc.)
Re: Force Awakens - C-3PO 5002948
I hated those chrome lightsaber hilts. Playing with them removed the layer of "chrome" so quickly. I wouldn't mind having a chrome c3PO though.grymg wrote:I can count on my fingers the amount of parts that I have in chrome - old lightsaber hilts, cylinder piece from the old train shed, TC-14, and my chrome stormtrooper minifig.
