Adam Posted November 15, 2008 ... ... ... ... ... ... Sorry for the delay, I was just swooshing my Galactic Mediator around naked. This is great news! Is it possible to get a scan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Asuka Posted November 15, 2008 Wow, stupendous news and quite stupendous set names too, thanks cagri! If the set design´s as interesting as these names it could be really nice... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pencoin Posted November 15, 2008 I think they were making more Batman, but they lost the lisence and made Space Patrol insted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oky Posted November 15, 2008 Sounds promissing! This first two sound kinda odd, but I can't wait for the last two! I think they were making more Batman, but they lost the lisence and made Space Patrol insted. Really? How do you know this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oky Posted November 15, 2008 (edited) Notice that I said 'I think' No, I mean how do you know that they lost the license? Or does the "I think" apply to that too? In that case, what makes you think that? Edited November 15, 2008 by Oky Wan Kenobi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pencoin Posted November 15, 2008 No, I mean how do you know that they lost the license?Or does the "I think" apply to that too? In that case, what makes you think that? No Bat-Sets next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pencoin Posted November 15, 2008 I think there may be different villians, for each set, with maybe a few recurring. I'd like that though. I don't think the Galatic Enforcer may have a villian though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
legomilk Posted November 15, 2008 This new series is not a follower of march theme but a whole new word and in the summer of 2009. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pencoin Posted November 15, 2008 This new series is not a follower of march theme but a whole new word and in the summer of 2009. I know, . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oky Posted November 15, 2008 No Bat-Sets next year. But WHY??? Arrgh! I give up. If you're so sure about this, you should mention it in the Batman 09 thread. Back on topic, what kind of weapon(s) (if any) do you think will the Space Patrol have? The classic long blaster/video camera thing perhaps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pencoin Posted November 15, 2008 I hope, I wouldn't mind a new mould though to be perfectly honest. Something that had the detail for those Star Wars guns, but more LEGOishy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hollisbrick Posted November 15, 2008 Australian Retailers catalog? Since when do Aussies know before the rest of the world? Anyway thanks for the info im sure pics should be up soonish.... It must contain somesort of Blacktron like characters because Container Heist, Gold heist ect... First for everything Okkaaayyy.. That was quite disturbing. Who hasn't done it My parents are going out this arvo so... Anyway, this sounds really good, I can't wait for pics! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Algernon Posted November 15, 2008 I'm loving the obvious throwback to the main Space Police starships with the name "Galactic Enforcer". So nostalgic... I know for a fact I'll be picking up some of these sets, if only because I'm a diehard space fan. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mania3 Posted November 16, 2008 Excellent! I was afraid this series might just be rumor, but the more information I get, the more promising this seems! Thanks for passing this along! Sorry for the delay, I was just swooshing my Galactic Mediator around naked. This is great news! Is it possible to get a scan? Oh, and if I may say so: lol.

Algernon Posted November 16, 2008 These set names are very promising. Squidman Escape makes me believe that we're going to get a variety of unique alien bad guys, which is GREAT. MM Jellies for the loose! Hyperspeed Chase is intriguing... and the "heist" sets sound cool. And the Galactic Enforcer is obviously going to be a huge cruiser of some kind, a la Galactic Mediator! I am pumped for this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth_Legois Posted November 16, 2008 First for everything Who hasn't done it My parents are going out this arvo so... Anyway, this sounds really good, I can't wait for pics! Okkaayy I wont be stalking you today, thats forsure. Hmm yes it does sound good!, Heres hoping they do as good job on this as the new Pirates theme! Nude swooshing eh? Sounds like something Dano would do.... Not-so-nude swooshing HB Stalker AWAY! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProducePrincess Posted November 16, 2008 Now these sound like Great sets but im sure lego will mess them up some how ,power miners for example we thought it was gonna be a great theme but lego messed it up and another way lego could mess these up is with the priceing because im no longer intreseted in the pirates theme because of the priceing there. now with my pointless Rant over... The sets sound quite intresting and i wonder if we get some weird lego heads like the ones in spongebob .will this be like many other themes where thes one main bad guy and a bunch of little henchmen ,if so i would love to see some old style blacktron figs or space pirates with sorta mixed clothing like with the regular pirates theme. anyways im going back to my Rabbit hole ( basement ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kliq Posted November 16, 2008 It almost sounds like Agents meet Space. I don't really like having a 'mission' or 'theme' for each set, rather just a vehicle or base. Oh well, hopefully they go 'classic space' on the Galactic Enforcer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well, hopefully they go 'classic space' on the Galactic Enforcer. I think that's in keeping with their recent "conflict in a box" mentality, which no doubt sells well with children. With all the money we AFOLs spend on their products, you'd think LEGO would know who actually keeps this ship afloat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KDog Posted November 16, 2008 I'm excited by this, of course. The idea of a Space Police/Patrol force chasing down different bad guys in different settings reminds me of Agents in a good way. These sets could be Space with more personality. Can't wait. And I must know who this mysterious Squidman is. I'm picturing a minifig with an octopus on its head, lol.
