Legos Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy Costco Misprint Preorder

LEGO star warsHave some good, old Star Wars fun the LEGO-way. The new game from LucasArts, LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy takes a stab at Episode IV: A New Hope, Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and Episode VI: Return of the Jedi with a comic twist. Players get to follow the Rebel Alliance crusade to put an end to the Galactic Empire and rebuild the galaxy in pieces.

See Darth Vader pursue Princess Leia in her Blockade Runner, get to ride various creatures and mix and match different LEGO body parts to create new characters (Make Darth Yoda, Princess Chew-Leia, or Luke-Han-Solo).

And maybe – just maybe – with all the hype surrounding the scheduled September 13 release of this undoubtedly interesting game, a lot of retail sites might have got caught in all of it. Some people who’ve tried to pre-order LEGO Star Wars: The Original Trilogy may have come across Costco’s site, and in the haste to get their names listed on that pre-order list, they didn’t check the game’s price: Costco listed the game as costing  $35.99 instead of $44.99. They say it really is a big ad mistake on their part. So if you’ve ordered already, make sure you did a double-check on the price listing, and… on your wallet as well.
