Haha,

So you gotta work out for 6 months to be strong enough to lift the thing under one arm to be able to steal it or use two weeks of that time to make enough cash to buy it?

Ya, haha,

That's not five finger, that's four wheeled discount. But ya, that sounds a little smarter than actually working out for six months and buying a huge jacket to put it under.

I might buy it.
But only after I'm finished with the U-47. (non-lego).
You got a RC U-47?
I wanted to get one, however, I dont have anyplace to run it without loosing it.

I see why the Corvette accompanying piece had to be specially manufactured. The ISD is barely to scale - the size of LEGO pieces limits how accurate smaller models can be. Is there a Corvette set? Can it be to scale? Certainly not an Executor! (Unless they went with the 8km fallacy, and even then, it would still be huge.)

My cousin had a G.I. JOE carrier, it was pretty much a perminate fixture of the play room at his house. I only got to play with it a few time though.

I actually tried to get the G.I. Joe carrier, I believe it's name was 'Freedom'.. Can't be for sure though. That bitch was fucking huge. The ISD and the Naboo Royal Cruiser are probably the two biggest Star Wars toys that will be available. The Cruiser was three feet long as well.

If they do an Executor, I'm sure it'll be the shitty 5-mile WEG deformed one. The UCS corvette is WEG deformed, too.

On topic, HOLY FUCKING SHIT! I AM PREORDERING THIS! FUCK ATHEISM; I NOW KNOW THERE IS A GOD, AND HIS NAME IS GEORGE LUCAS!

*ahem* Carry on.

Now that I look at it, this ISD is probably also not entirely to scale, but who the hell cares. It'll be fun as fuck to build.

It was called the USS Flagg.
By the way, it was roughly 2 metres long.
