The US still has the armor. I'm not surprised that it's been sold out already there. Do parts commonly come back after they've been sold out? Usually not if they are out of production which is the case with black armor. The KKII line of products and the Vikings are gone. In other words the black ar...

Apparently the black armor is sold out already, at least for European PaB customers. I do not know if this also applies for US PaB. The black ones are apparently discontinued being leftovers from the 7015 Viking Warrior vs. Fenris Wolf and 2006 KKII rogue knights production while the silver ones are...

According to lugnet I own this and I think mine is still sealed. Nice parts pack with the rare white plume wheel. The rest of the parts is quite average and quite easy to optain.

Nice set, basic but that is what I like most about it. No heavy weapons, just some useful minifigs to build an army. Hard to say when it is owned. I would say that owning it would at least mean that you purchased this new or at least with the original card. Then you can be assured that this was sold...

I'd personally say $250 is way too much... even if they are originals. If they are just custom made, and not originals from "way back when", then that is surely too much. Although they are a great collector's item, I personally would want to go crazy on bricklink or buy a massive horde of...

I recently have been offered ghost shrouds in red, black and trans-clear. Sorry, but I can not and will not disclose the source in this forum since it was a special offer for a selected number of people. I turned them down at $250 for the 3. Would you consider buying those parts at this price? They...

How about if a Lego store or Lego merchant makes a bulk order? The number of sets is not limited so if you want 10, you will get them without trouble. Then the set could easily flow into dealer's hands at a higher price compared to Lego S@H but the dealer will soon be able to say that it is hard to ...

Never owned it, never will. I must admit I am not too fond of all that black and with all those devices, I consider it an action toy. Guess everyone is entitled to his own opinion. This set simply does not appeal to me at all despite the good things it may have. :| And I will never get used to those...

Expensive MISB boxes that are hard to acquire remain that way. I have untouched copies of 6040, 6041, 6060, 6067 and 1877 just to name a few. Hard to come by at decent prices again since the Lego collectors are really paying top dollar for it and I would not want to battle over them again. Building ...

I will look into this to see if the set will be released later in Europe. Ben Ellermann LEGO Ambassador Most likely it will although this is only a thought. Usually, US and Canada get things first (importance of the market) and perhaps they are afraid too many people will pre-order this which would...

Megabollocks! This seems to be a US and CAN only set... AGAIN (just like other good things such as 6060 + 6071)! :x Neverywhere available in Europe I am afraid. You're overreacting a bit aren't you? Many sets are released in the US first, and this set will most likely be available in Europe very so...

How about the other queen getting tan Padme Naberrie long hair? Oh well, reddish brown should be fine too.
