I haven't bought a Lego set in almost a decade, but this is extremely tempting:

The new LEGO Star Wars set is a 3,803 piece 16” tall and 16½” wide $399 replica of the Death Star.

The price of $399 is what will probably keep me from buying it though.

I'll take 2

I wish, I do love how much it comes with, it's size, and all the cut away, but damn. Obviously not really marketing it to kids, unless your parents have obscene amounts of disposable income. And if so, kids, beg.

It would be better if it was 16' by 16'

That's a nice playset, but I'd like to see them release a display-oriented Death Star that looks the way the Death Star would look from space.

Yeah, something like that.

I'd complain that I'd prefer Death Star I, but it really wouldn't take much effort to bring the station to its logical conclusion.

I wish I had the money to buy tons of Lego sets, but I spend three fourths of the money I make on DVDs and music.

The Millennium Falcon is cool, but I'm personally more fascinated with diorama sets like the Death Star or this one:

I'm with Syd, it should really be a Death Star I complete with walls and stuff for display, but using the hinge pieces so that it can fold open, much like the old lego castles we used to have, complete with working portcullis and drawbridge.
