Just wondering, any of you have this? Was hoping to get it for Christmas, even had a fairly large box under the tree, but it turned out to be a really nice photo printer though- not Lego but still pretty nice. Made me wonder though, just how big is the box for this thing? Do Lego stores carry them or do you have to order online?

I saw one of these on display in the LEGO store in Tysons Corners Virginia just before Christmas. It was pretty awe inspiring.

I've got one and I can tell you it's the one of the best sets ever. It really is the ultimate for a Star Wars fan and Lego will have to pull out some major sorcery to come up with anything bigger or better.

So yeah, it's good. Get it!

The only topper on the UCS MF would probably be a similarly sized AT-AT. Mmmmm, tastey.

Speaking of which, the aforementioned display at Tyson's Corner also included the new motorized AT-AT, and it looked absolutely puny in comparison. The level of detail and sheer size is absolutely amazing.

I've seen the display (at the Tyson's Corner Lego store too) and I agree that it looks simply amazing. The only thing holding me back right now is that I've got absolutely no where to put the thing. Of course, that'll only stop me for so long

The only question is whether or to buy it at the store and lug the thing home on the bus or to order it online. Are they still doing the stamp thing? I bet buying it would fill up a whole one of those cards. Plus I need to go there sometime soon for my free PAB box.

That's the only downside. It takes up a third of my building area but hey, I can't complain about having too much laygoes.

how is it that we've all been to Tyson's recently and not run across each other???

I wonder too where they'll go next (this is me saying from a point of really not knowing). I'm curious if its finally reached the highest point for price and hugeness and will start working its way down again. Either way, I still want one

I was just thinking that, I used to go there quite often when I still lived in DC. We could have had a Classic-Castle meet there and then
