    seems really bizarre considering the product is available and the internet is flooded with this stuff.
    if they want to sue someone, sue Walmart for breach of contract for selling it before Force Friday. [shrug]

    Pretty sure that Disney forced TLJ's hand on this one. Apparently (for some reason) they think it hurts sales or something like that. I don't think it was right of them, but I'll still buy some of those sets nonetheless (albeit, when they go on sale).

    i'd be curious to know whether other youtubers are getting desist letters ~ especially since there are "approved" reviews out there already as well.
    so it's not like we haven't seen all this stuff except through "nefarious" acquisitions.

    From my undertstanding, the only other Lego reviewers of note that have reviewed any of TLJ sets are just2good (one of my favorites!) and MandR Productions. M&R has gotten an email by whoever about his reviews, he emialed them back, and... nothing. As of yet, just2good hasn't gotten anything about his videos yet.

    Idk, this move was a really scummy one, in my opinion.

    you almost have to wonder if someone with a grudge reported it as illicit just to stir up trouble.
    seems like the Lego group isn't doing anything to stem the flood of leaks otherwise. at least from where i'm sitting.

    Here's Jang's video on why. He can probably explain the siuation better then I could.

    Also the mucho-grande, Lego 2017 UCS Millenium Falcon has leaked! Looks pretty sweet, but I know that I won't be getting this, unless I win the lottery.

    Whoops, forgot about that! Ah well, now it's on the most recent page of this page!

    Also, Toys R Us is having a promo for the R3-M2 polybag with any Lego purchase over $30 this week.

    Iam so very tempted by this now every shot I see of it makes me want it even more.
    I have never where to store it but that's a minor detail.

    Does anyone need a kidney? I have a spare! :p

    Wow, this set looks a-ma-zing! It's going to cost a fortune and take up tons of space but I love it.

    Well it now up on n the official Lego site
    https://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Millennium-Falcon-75192

    The amount of detail on this thing is absolutely mind boggling & I would say it's closer to a very detailed model then a normal Lego set. But that price is a real killer not sure I can explained that if I brought it home.

    I have that Y-Wing too, great set! I also hope for somebody to drop that Resistance Transport Pid in my stocking this year... :rolleyes:

    Also, random question, how did your Yavin base come along? Did you guys complete it? It looked pretty cool!
