The entire set tends to go for around £100 so someone was desperate.
It is odd though as the only items you really can't get elsewhere are the
visors, as had been said the bodys are plain, the helamtes and weapons are
light grey which is avaliable elsewhere. The color of the tabards is unique,
nut I've put stickers on yellow tabards before and you cant really see any
of the yellow when they are on.
So it looks like $114 was paid for some visors which have been cut!!
Is there anyone out there who hasn't encountered problems with the old style
helmet splitting on the chin? I recon Ive got about 2 left out of all my
classic space sets and the yellow castle which haven't. guess thats why they
changed it
(btw fortunately my fiancee who isnt really a lego fan had a Yellow castle
from her childhood, saved me spending any money on it :) )
