Well, since I originally thought it was the same size as the Indy Storm,
I couldn't understand why it would cost so much more, unless there
was something special about it, like motorized or something. But now
that I understand that it really is much bigger than Indy Storm, 1800
pieces instead of only 440, I can understand the price difference.
That's even more pieces than the UCS X-Wing, at 1304. Would that
make this the biggest set ever, with the 5571 Black Cat having "only"
1743 pieces?
