Sterling Silver C-3PO

Lego

I didn't spend a lot of time at the Lego booth at the show.  It seemed that many of the items they had were ones available at retail now, or would soon be out.

They did have two special C-3PO minifigs, however.  The first was a Celebration IV exclusive Sterling Silver C-3PO.  It's a one-of-a-kind piece that was raffled off on the last day of the convention.

They also had a 24k Gold C-3PO on display but I believe that one is part of the 2007 promotion that they are running.

The UCS Millennium Falcon was on display as were some of the new sets for 2007 such as General Grievous' Starfighter and the Jedi Starfighter with hyperdrive ring.

A couple of the coolest sites were the large Chewbacca and R2 and C-3PO statues made out of Lego blocks.  There was even a Lego fan booth in the Fan Fair hall that created an incredible mural out of Lego bricks.
