A superhuge grey parts pack is cool, but not for $500 CDN.

Actually, if this set is as good as it looks in the pictures it will probibly
be one of those sets I'll never dismantle.

The price per piece is pretty good with this set too.  About 9 cents/piece US.
So it may be expencive, but its got a lot of parts.

My only fear is that it will get converted to a retail set and I'll get screwed
like I did with the Rebel Blockade Runner.  At least I'm going to be an early
adopter this time.  If it does go retail it won't be anounced a few days after
I've ordered it.  They also claim this is an introductary price.  I wonder what
the standard price will be?

Also, I am pretty
well at max. capacity (at least in my bedroom).

I hear you.  I over extended the capacity of my appartment years ago.  But I
still have an office with a little space left. :-)

Actually, in waiting until December, you will develop some patience, and when
it arrives you'll appreciate it more.

No.  I'll probibly forget about it.  One day I'll get a notice in my mail box
that I have a package.  I'll think, what the hell is this I'm not expecting
anything.  Then I'll open it see this huge box and go oh, ya, that's what it
is.  :-)
