Hard negotiation with the local Shell station. Settled on £60 for the pair!!



I did wonder if they would sell! I always wondered if they would just end up in a bin at the back. £60 isn't bad at all certainly cheaper than buying them all after spending £30 of fuel! Might be worth something one day too!

75060 - STAR WARS - SLAVE 1

Complete and includes all mini figs including carbonited hans solo - £200



Any questions or offers please pm me.

You might want to consider your price as the Tumbler is cheaper than that new from Lego and so is Slave 1

Did you get power functions to go with it?

From what I read over the weekend, the Winter Soldier minifig is changing hands for mad money on ebay - in particular in the US, since they don't appear to be getting it as the freebie that we do over here when you order the Helicarrier.

Just mentioning, in case you're not especially wedded to it and wanted to recoup some of the not inconsiderable cost of the Helicarrier!

I haven't bought anything direct from Lego for ages so how do you become a VIP?

Do you have to sign up before you buy anything from them?

Also - how much is the Helicarrier selling for as I stumbled across a Death Star this morning, priced at under £220, so I don't know which one i should purchase.

Easy to become a VIP, just sign up on the UK website. I would recommend doing that first, checking you can login ok, then clearing cookies and buying through Topcashback or Quidco. Tracked ok for me in the past.

A Death Star for 20% off is pretty good if its new or 'as new'. I currently have my one siting on the sub with Emperor Palpatine chairing a meeting with subordinates in the conference room smile

I have just ordered a Helicarrier - estimated shipping date 4th March.

Free drilling rig and Winter Soldier mini fig.

Power options sold out - might wait to build until I can buy them (and redeem my VIP points against them).

Very excited! I might be 43 but I still feel like a kid inside biggrin

It seems a bit stupid, but they use a battery box that is different to the one in the power functions set. How stupid is that.

Interestingly, this is on the UK page.

Winter Soldier Minifigure (5002943) available for VIP Members in North America at a later date

The prices I've quoted are based ion eBay prices. Maybe there are a bit optimistic. If anyone wants any I'm open to offers.

Never mind what George is smoking, some people off eBay are mad. I have shifted plenty of stuff on the bay of flees for significantly more that what you can go and buy the kits for in the lego shops!!

Yeah but then you're playing 'item not as described' roulette.
