Death Star Trooper - hopefully he'll have a proper helmet. Queen Amidala - no surprises there, what with the 3D release and all, but it's nice to hear it. New Astromechs are always interesting. All in all,

Looks like it'll soon be time for a 2012 Rumors Thread.

Can I get a HELLs YEAH? Also email me the pics

The rumour that there will be a new X-wing is got a bit more credibility to it now. I mean what will the Tie Fighter fight?

[Thego]

As well as the TIE Fighter news, I saw this tweet:

Quote

Lucas Licensing Chris Gollaher says 6 NEW #LEGO #StarWars sets for main line & exclusives coming in Jan.

Oh, and the TIE Fighter is sat in front of the panel in this photo. Obviously, we can't tell much from that distance, but at least we can see that it uses light bley for the wing details rather than the blue of old. Yay!

[Churchill]

Oh, I am so excited about a new TIE fighter.  I don't have any of the ones already produced, and haven't been able to get over the blue enough to buy one off of bricklink... Can't wait!

[Brickdoctor]

Deeplinked pic:

Is that grey edging around the outside edges of the TIE's wings?

I also see set numbers are up to the 9000s now for System sets.

[Thego]

A bit closer on the TIE Fighter. But not much.

Smooth! I already want 2 of them.

[TheBrickHitHouse]

That TIE looks awesome. Will be good to get a proper death star trooper. All we need added is a death star gunner...

[Final Exit]

New TIE looks awesome, even from this distance, a must!

[L-DI-EGO]

Maybe this is the image you are looking for.
From jediinsider.net.

There are also images of Queen Amidala and the Imperial minifigs here and here.

I snapped some better close ups, which someone is posting for me momentarily on Rebelscum forums. I'd give it 30min and you should find them in the con news thread.

[Brickviller]

The TIE looks really good, but bigger. I don't know if I like that, I would expect a new one to be similair sized. But I can always choose not to buy it if I don't like it The Queen sounds interesting for a new set

Yep. It is definitely going to look odd alongside the 8129 AT-AT in a Hoth diorama. It'll look like some kind of dropship!

[LEGOMAN132]

Finally a Queen Amidala maybe she will come with a Royal cruiser :. Also the new TIE fighter looks great

Above are the pictures (hopefully - I'm new here) of the tie fighter and minifigures - courtesy of JediInsider.

Queen Amidala, finally  

[cavegod]

Exclusives aswell eh?? well they should be in the shops buy xmas then.

[Brickdoctor]

That's SNOT edging on the TIE!

The new 'figs are looking great, too.

[Fallenangel]

Solar panel anglature fail :*



Joking aside, this is definitely a big improvement over 7263, and not just because of the new color scheme. I like that they've printed the TIE cockpit** in the fashion of a certain MOC I've seen, as well as the tiles used to recreate the grey border (similar to what was done in dateman's TIE/ln). It also looks like the laser cannons have been relocated and that the grey beams on the solar panels have been done the same way as in 7181 and 10175. It's great that The LEGO Group really used lots of good techniques that have been seen in others' work. Heck, I might actually buy this if future pictures reveal it to look as good as it does here.

*Anio got it right.
**Or is that a new piece?

Padme minifigures are like buses. You wait 12 years and two come at the same time.

[StoutFiles]

Am I the only one that hates the thickness of the new TIE wings?  3 plates thick!  4 to 5 if you count the tubing!  The original was just 1 plate thick, 2 plates if you count some of the outside plates.  TIE wings should NOT be this thick.

This will also look very odd if placed next to another TLG designed TIE Advanced, TIE Bomber, or TIE Interceptor as well since they all use a similar design and have similar widths.
