Some Lego I want

I always liked Legos. Especially the ones where there are big, complex, expensive and quite unlikely your parents will buy it for you if you ask for it.

So when I saw the latest Clone Wars stuff from Lego, I kinda like the Clone Republic Gunship. Its big, has lots of stuff and unfortunately, overpriced. Here it costs a WHOPPING RM 800 (or 799.9999999999). I could have sworn I saw it costing SING 199.90 when I was in Singapore (or was it? cannot remember). Converted to Ringgit, even if it is SING 1 = RM 2.50 it is still less than RM 500!!! Tempted to get one, but after seeing how overpriced this thing in M'sia (like CBU/CKD/any car here), potong stim to get it. Available funds I have, but too much to buy over a short period of time, so buying one of these will easily blow 2-3 months allocation for "other stuff". And by the time Masterpiece Grimlock arrive which will cost more than this thing I think got no money left :P

Some pictures of it.
