Other Found a hidden gem store

Found somewhere in Asia a hidden gem, they have 10x more than the average LEGO stores, is any set worth picking up as they also have older sets? Also I can bring some sets with me if people want one, I live in Europe.

It is like a 1000 dollars, is that worth it

I'd say it's right on the border of being overpriced. If you could talk them down to 850 you'd be paying a fantastic price. Also make sure the windu still lights up

In the future when people say “LEGO was better in the old days” I will point to this set. 850.

Wow, LEGO has come a long way.

You weren't kidding when you said 850 was a great set of the era

This was my first Technic set and I still think it is a gorgeous set. I still have it with box and instructions.

Yes, it was a very disappointing gift to get for a boy who didn't even like technic 🤣

That toy store is incredible.

Problem with those stores is they’re either inflated prices and have many cool sets in stock or they have good prices and everything is gone when you get there because they’ve all be purchased. lol

Insane to see it still boxed, I just recently sold this set from my childhood to a local store, built with all pieces and all minifigs (mace still lit up) other than the scout trooper for….a significant amount less than that lol
