Reddit reviews LEGO Star Wars Death Star (10188) (Discontinued by manufacturer)

I'm still acquiring Legos. What I really want to do is buying the Lego Death Star and keep it sealed until my son gets a bit older. Then, one day, I'll just bust it out and we'll put it together.

That's nothing, comparatively.

This! Ooh I like this! No wait, this!

My god, what have you started?? Hehehe.

Not really Walmart, licensing and retail pricing has very little to do with product manufacturing. The majority of stuff you buy, not just toys, are priced far beyond the product.

Do you really think the small pieces of plastic for LEGO cost $400 to make?

This might get buried in the comments, But I would just like to point out that there are two versions of each model; a more realistic expensive one, and a more play-set like one that includes mini-figures.

• The realistic Star Destroyer (the one shown in the video) is actually close to $2000.
  
  
• The Death Star, however is the play set one with the mini figures so it's only $400.
  
  
• There is also a play version of the Star Destroyer for $400
  
  
• And a model version of the Death Star for $1200.
  
  Edit: LEGO is expensive, I've been playing with LEGO play sets since I was about 4. There is a lot of work that goes into these toys and it's kind of sad that they seem to be dying compared to the video game generation (not that I'm against video games, I love video games, I just also like LEGO a whole lot.)
  
  
  Edit 2: My mistake, this is the one in the video which is $400.
  
  fuck.

Have you ever seen THIS? ❤

Don't you wish you could build this too?! ❤

I love Star Wars thanks to my boyfriend for getting me hooked on it couple years ago! I effn' love C-3PO, R2-D2 and the Ewoks!!! I also love chewbacca!!

amazon.com. Believe it or not it's the MOST HELPFUL CRITICAL REVIEW.

Hey /u/joneszen,

Have I ever told you how handsome you are? You're probably the most handsome guy I know. I'd totally build some LEGO with you.

Lego sets over $350 are always an exception. http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-Death-10188/dp/B002EEP3NO

Hold on to your butts, kids. This party is being held a muthafuckin' Jurassic Park. Yeah. That's right. I said it. Jurassic Park. It's gonna be awesome.

The theme? Secret agents. Spies. Spy vs. Spy. That sort of thing. I'm coming as Nick Fury because, Captain, he's the spy. His secrets have secrets.

We're going to kick this party off old school with an ALL 90'S MUSIC MIX. I'm talking: Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit, Backtreet Boys' I Want It That Way, Sir Mix-A-Lot's Baby Got Back (because you know /u/NJBilbo got back), Hanson's MMMBop, Beck's Loser, Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby, Counting Crows' Mr. Jones, Ricky Marin's Livin' La Vida Loca, Third Eye Blind's Semi-Charmed Life, Sugar Ray's Fly and wrapping it up with Kris Kross' Jump because we gonna jump allllll night long!

Now, for food? That's tricky. So many people like so many different things. And I don't want to be too predictable. So we're doing Indian food. I got curries for days for you guys. Vegetarian dishes. Meaty dishes. I'm pretty partial to the chicken tikka masala. But that's me. (If you're not a fan, we've got a sundae bar, too, so just, you know, go nuts on candy and ice cream and stuff.)

Decorations? Uhm. We're at [i]Jurassic Park[/i]. What kind of decorations do you think we have? Blown up dinosaurs with spy-style laser beams on their heads being ridden by former Presidents.

How did you guess!?

I'd show you a design for the invitations but, uh, I haven't gotten the self destruct thing figured out. They keep blowing up before anyone can read them. So. maybe some guests will be missing eyebrows. And, uh... fingers. (My bad.)

Now, let's talk presents.

For /u/NJBilbo I'm torn between this calendar (because this guy ought to keep himself organized and challenge his mind at the ame time) and the LEGO Death Sar (because it's a freakin' LEGO death star!) and basically a million other things.

And for /u/SympatheticStranger it's between a Willow Tree figure (because they are the best) and this Starfleet Academy hoodie because I like need* one of these now.

So what do you think guys?

Party of the century?

Because I'm thinking party of the century.

Well.

Assuming no one gets eaten.

Yeah, I'd buy it...When Lego realizes that their sets are all far too overpriced. $459.99 for a Death Star is complete bullshit. How am I supposed to afford child support and live out my childhood?


Ah, well. I guess it's back to Skyrim for me. At least $20 can still get me hours of jaw-dropping entertainment instead of a fucking dirt bike transporter.

I guess I missed that part. Unbreakable, for me, was the best of m. night shyamalan's films, mainly because when i watched the sixth sense, my sister, sitting right next to me, leans over after the first bedroom scene with bruce willis, when he's sitting on the park bench, and whispers, "he's dead."

Luckily her son is godsend at divulging endings. Snape killed Dumbledore, Ned Stark gets beheaded, it was Kevin Spacey all along, those were the droid they were looking for, you left the broccoli casserole at home, in the oven, because you're a moron. Haha, at least I'm saving up to give him this for birthday, because he loves Star Wars and Legos.
