New CW magnet set

Postby Vader on Tue Feb 03, 2009 7:03 pm

Well for those that want a Dooku fig but don't want the Solar Sail, i guess this is your lucky day :D

Not bad for just £8.79, i might just have to buy a few of these myself.

the magnet brick for Yoda seems unique, since he doesn't have holes in the backs of his lil legs. Bless ...

Nice set ... will pick this up when I'm next in Brighton :D

Wow! I am totaly suprised by this. These figs will set you back £130 (in the UK) if you buy the sets they are exclusively in at the moment! :geek:

I might have to get a set of these when i get a chance. :)

Tell me about it :twisted: Though i'm still pleased that i got the sets including the overpriced Solar Sail, but this set is really great and a cheap way to get a Dooku hairpiece.

Wow that Magnet set is absolutely superb!

I hope it's like we figured out some time ago and those figs are just normal figs attached to magnet bricks! That would be so awesome because I could get a Dooku and a Windu fig without having to purchase the Attack Shuttle and the Solar Sail. That's like 100€ saved! And a Yoda fig ain't bad either, but I'll get me at least one AAT nonetheless.

If anyone gets these magnets PLEASE review them ASAP and clear us up on those figs magnet/non magnet parts!!!

A brilliant magnet pack with great figures to buy instead of buying sets at disgraceful prices such as the solar sailer and the attack shuttle (and the AAT but that is a fine looking set :geek: )

Wow, now this is a strange move by part of the TLC :o . This is definitely the most strange combination for a magnet set at this moment. Just think about it, the TLC practically ruin their own sales here :o . Now I am almost sure that many people aren´t going to get the SS, the RAS or the AAT (All this sets has their major sale point in their exclusive minifigs but now we can get all of them for just $12). Don´t get me wrong, this are a greatful surprise for us the FOLs :geek: but it is a bit strange move from the TLC.

Well you can bet the sets will still sell very well, no problems there ;) Collectors and kids still want the vehicles. I mean I'll get the SS because I like it, and buy magnets as well to have multiples of the characters :geek:

Lets not forget the magnets are not widely spread in the shops ;)

I think its a brilliant strategy to make great sales of the magnets :geek: Now lets see what other magnets we'll have !! (I'm so hoping for Sponge Bob ones, and Summer Indy (Mola Ram and Elsa ON)
