My parting gift from my last job was an HBC gift card which I struggled to spend at The Bay; however, a trip to Zellers allowed me to buy a Christmas gift for my nephew and something for myself.

I prefer the Classic Star Wars Lego over the Clone Wars, even though some of the ships are pretty cool. A lot of the sets being released right now are obviously trying to bridge the gap between the Clone Wars era and the original trilogy. Case in point this set is a tweak of an earlier Republic V-Wing fighter but with darker Imperial colours. Totaling 139 pieces, this was quickly assembled and pretty cool.
