|
|
$149.99 is the price for the new Ultimate Collector Series X-Wing set and is a bit expensive for a set that only has standard Lego elements in it (no bricks with computers, control centers, fiberoptics, technic motors, etc.) If it is that high then (...)

(...) You've done a nice work on the minifig controlled robot! Especially the idea of skirts using the racing pod.
