    Wow, I hadn't even heard there was controversy around it. Definitely a good set with great minifigs. Really cool how it fits on top of the Rancor Pit set - dig the extra design work that went into that.

    I've seen it as low as $90 on Amazon - would definitely be worth picking one up for that price. Heck, it may be worth quite a bit more in a few years because of the controversy :rolleyes:

    yeah, once the media calmed down and got the reply from Lego group that they were not going to stop until 2014, prices went back down.

    the ebay'rs got alot of hooks today though

    Here is a Ferrai truck I built for fun, I dont have the finished pictures, but I put some seats and a roll cage on it

    Then I decided to go bigger and took it apart and used some parts from a rc car I had and it turned out pretty big, the finished pictures are on some other camera or phone though

    FYI to all...
    If you go on brickset and pick sets you want they have a bargain feature that will show prices on Amazon. It is a great feature which you can essentially pick just about any deal to have shown, sets you want, by what percentage they drop, and even a trend button to click on for each set. Very useful for tracking those amazon deals.
