The Lunar New Year-themed sets will go live on 10th of January for sales. At the time when this article is published, UK sales would have gone live and availability on the US and CAD stores should be available very shortly. If they’re not live just yet, take the chance to read our reviews on both these sets that we’ve covered extensively.
The Razor Crest is now available on Amazon (US) at its regular retail price. In case you’re wondering, what’s the big deal about this Star Wars vehicle, the spoiler-free answer is the Razor Crest leaves a mind-blowing impression in season two that makes it a little more sought after now for not only fans and likely LEGO investors.
If you’re not seeing the set at its regular retail price of $129.99 USD – it’s likely if you’re reading this a little later and they’re gone for now. The good news is, if you follow us on Facebook, we’ll make further announcements when it is available again. Alternatively, you may do want to check directly at the LEGO stores just in case more shows up. Here are the direct links to the LEGO online stores: US $129.99 | CAN $159.99 | UK £119.99
Do give it a read if you have not already viewed our review of this set. I have spoken.
I had a feeling that a scene like this couldn’t come soon enough from the castaway minifigure in the latest Collectible Minifigure (CMF) lineup. What’s not to love about this scene where a cute abode is made up of wood drift and healthy unlimited sashimi from the sea. Tom Hanks would be proud of this shipwreck survivor indeed. We’re got a tip by builder Kev.the.Builder that the hermit crab (from the same blind CMF pack) is definitely in the scene, but can you spot it? It finally hit me and I feel something is amiss… where’s Wilson?
