The force awakens battle action falcon is now half price at toys r us at £49.99! I know this ship is a piece of over the top kiddy junk but it is still the kind of ship we like to add to our collections and it takes 3.75" figures so a bargain in my eyes plus you can never have enough big boxed vehicles lol. Also, if you do a quick google you can get a link for free delivery instead of the £4.95 usual daylight robbery. I would copy and paste you the code but it just takes you straight to the appropriate page with discount applied. Jeez what do you want me to do, fly that baby home for you? :lol:

Cheers for the heads up mate -
Went and checked them out, definitely a bargain but still couldn't bring myself to buy one - they could have knocked it out the park with this ship but kinda dropped the ball.

I get what your saying, TFA Tie Fighter were on offer at Tesco's reduced from £30 to £10 a while back.

I nearly brought 2!

Ha! I did the same!
I did a double take when I saw those Tie fighters reduced to £10 each. I put 5 in my trolley and walked around thinking about it, before putting 4 of them back! Nice little piece for a tenner.

To be fair for £10 I would have grabbed a tie. I popped into the tesco near my office when the offer was on and they were still set at £30 each I asked but no deal so no tie :(

thanks for the heads up, very nearly bought one but that stupid nerf thing put me right off, why didn't they just update the legacy edition one from a few years ago, that's how you make a toy,i love mine but would have loved a square dished falcon to go along with it, see what they do in future.

Ok, I still think it is ****, but I am sure my 5 year old will love it and at £50 it is no more expensive than half the disposable crap he get bought.

Look at it this way, there's Finn, BB8 and Chewie figures in there with it at a tenner each normally so the ships only costing £20 in reality.

I think you will pleasantly surprised. It's a proper toy for kids like the original, not for collectors to wank over.

THIS ^^^^^

I thought this looked and sounded **** but happened to have a little play with one myself a couple of months back, at this price I may go and get one for my lad because as a toy it is quality.

Yep I bought three, they're actually pretty nice as it goes. Opened one and the other two are stashed in my garage
