i hate that the expanded universe sets didn't sell well. now we're never going to get a mara jade figure. any of the solo kids, ben, jag fel, etc would be instant buys for me no matter what set they were in.

also i know there are ridiculously expensive third party options, but i'd love some official releases of delta and omega squads. those could make nice battle packs.  :wub:

- Queen Amidala (preferably the red gown but any costume is good)
- Padme (Battle gear)
- Padme (both Droid Factory and Geonosian Arena)

These are probably the most wanted out of the list.

Mr. man, I see you love jedi minifigs, am I right?
They are my favourite too. Which ones would you still like to be released. I am hoping for Adi Gallia and Coleman Kcaj(Pablo Jill). With them made I think we will have all popular jedi. What do you say? :laugh:
Top 10 Star Wars sets in my opinion:
1. UCS Millennium Falcon
2. UCS Imperial Shuttle
3. Sandcrawler
4. Trade Federation MTT
5. Republic Attack Gunship
6. Jabba's Sail Barge
7. Death Star II
8. Death Star
9. Anakin's and Sebulba's podracers
10. Jabba's Palace(NEW 2012)

It will be interesting to see if any new sets based on the expanded universe appear after SWTOR is released. I think it will generate alot of interest among people who have only seen the motion pictures. I would expect that there will be alot of new characters introduced in it.

I don't think there will be a lot. Maybe one set's worth, at most, especially after the Rogue Shadow set.

which stinks, because in my opinion that set didn't sell well because it wasn't a good set, not because of it being the EU

Did Wesker just list ALL the Star Wars main characters?  :laugh:

In all fairness LEGO have gone above and beyond with the number of unique characters released - I've found my appetite for awesome almost completely sated... but not quite. :wink:

I'm a Jedi fan also. I'm mega happy to own Aayla, Shaak and Luminara who are all favourites of mine. Though I would have preferred the regular black dot/white highlight look, the transition to Clone Wars-style faces has been favourable to these girls and they look amazing. Further to this I'd like to see Adi Gallia and Bultar Swann. Coleman Trebor would be cool too.

I also have a thing for them loveable rogues, the bounty hunters. This year's release of Aurra Sing was fantastic... but those last elusive classics 4-LOM and Zuckuss would be sweet. And let's not forget the awesome DURGE!

Additionally I'd love to see Ithorians make it into LEGO - they're like part of the Star Wars furniture!

In the UK the Rogue Shadow was released LONG before The Force Unleashed and so I don't think there was the consumer awareness to spur on sales. Shame really.

Unfortunately I don't see TLG releasing both Adi Gallia & Stass Allie. (Why they even had to be a different character is beyond me, I didn't notice the difference in the movies.) Same goes for Eeth Koth & Agen Kolar. I don't reckon we'll see a Yaddle, as she was never in any action scenes. Even Piell however, there's a good chance he'll turn up.

I'm a sucker for jedi, so here's hoping anyway.

Change of actresses. Nitpickers (like me  :innocent2: ) would notice the difference in close-ups.

EDIT: Actresses, not actors. :blush:

They looked more likely to be the same character than Anakin & Obi Wan's different actors suggested... plus Yoda had very different appearances in some movies, why not make them all different characters too? :wacko:  While we're at it, what about Empress Chimpeyes?! :laugh:

Well Adi could be in a CW ship say a Eta-class with Ani or something. And Stass could be in a 'Sith' set on a 74-Z and Neo and Extra on BARC's.

I want characters as depicted in The Clone Wars micro series such as

Padme in Illum outfit
Durge
Roron Corobb (hammerhead Jedi)
Anakin with blue "tattoos" and exposed prosthetic arm
Voolvif Monn ("werewolf" Jedi)
Foul Moudama (big furry Jedi with a "trumpet" looking mouth/nose)

I added the species in red for you. I'm not exactly sure about Shistavian though. Is that correct Doc?


Personally, I wouldn't mind an Imperial Admiral Yularen- that white uniform could become usefull.

The collectible minifig series mad professor's tunic would be perfect if it wasn't for the green stains on it. With a white mustached version of the Hoth Officer, and Dooku's hair.

I would like Lego to make more characters from Episode I-III, and less from Clone Wars. Because of CW we do almost not have any Jedi knights with regular face printings.

This summer we got a lot of updated minifigures from Episode I - maybe we can expect that they will continue and release updated Episode II-figures next year?
Please take a look at my MOCs =)

(though it should be noted that this was merely an artistic choice made during original production, Yularen is still an Admiral during the events of that movie, and the uniform is not to be confused with that of a Grand Admiral)
