shopThe UCS model Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter ™ is currently on sale on the LEGO Shop, it goes from 99.99 euros to 69.99 euros, a price that seems more suited to this set which is not really in the usual line of UCS that we know.
 
Or ... the sales did not follow and LEGO decides to liquidate the stocks ... In any case, any collector who respects himself will invest in this set despite everything nice.
 
Thanks to BrickEric from FreeLUG for the info.

Fake Gold C-3PO

For those interested, here is a comparison between the different C3-POs that I have on hand, a plastic model from Star Wars magnet sets, the C3-PO Limited Edition (10.000 copies) and the two C3-POs received via eBay.
The observation is clear, the last two are no match, they are really mediocre and do not really honor the brand, even if I am torn between outright counterfeiting and the work of a passionate AFOL who s It is risky to reproduce the original minifigure.

Below are some clickable photos of these weird minifigs.

sku 43900 5Received this morning the "Lego" gun from DealExtreme, actually an Enlighten branded product, which turns out to be a Lego clone. For 9.40 $, no miracle, but the product is intended for my son for Christmas, who is currently in his period of weapons, pistols, rifles, etc ...
The opinions of DX customers are all rather positive on the product, I will form my own opinion on 26/12 ....

Below are some pictures from DX on this product.
