The Koensayr’s BTL Y-Wing Fighters often got their cockpit opening mechanism jammed in sub-zero operating temperatures. On Hoth It was not good, not good at all.

Amazing photos from Avanaut on Flickr of Star Wars scenes on Hoth using Legos and snow.

LEGO Brand Retail

4E8EE4BF-F6D1-4CBC-801E-D14BD74CE70D.jpgLego is having a black friday sale until 30 November which is nearly 10% off. I’m planning on purchasing the 10194 Emerald Nighticon train set. They Emerald Night works with the new power functions sets. These are nice since there are no longer train specific motors and controllers but it’s made all my previous train engines obsolete.

I emailed Lego and asked why they no longer carry the Emerald Night with power functions and the new flexible track as a kit. They responded with the following:

The product you inquired about have been discontinued from our current product line as a kit and we do not expect to offer it that way at this time.

Purchase any 4 Items of Power Functions accessory and Get 10% off, or Any 8 Items and Get 15% off, instead of releasing a new Power Functions Train Accessory Pack.

Here are the individual items that need to be purchased with the Emerald Night to make a complete kit.
