Dragonator Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Hey everyone, I don't know if this has been posted, but I have information concerning the New Zealand release of the Clone Wars line. The Clone Wars sets are being officially released on the 1st of August. I just had a call from my local Toyworld mate, and have pre-ordered all the sets. Here are the RRPs, in NZD: 7679 Republic Fighter Tank: 99.99 (exclusive to Toyworld) 7681 Separatist Spider Droid: 49.99 7675 AT-TE Walker: 159.99 (I think, I did these over the phone and didn't listen to the prices to closely) 7674 V-19 Torrent: 119.99 7676 The Republic Attack Gunship: 179.99 (Again, I am pretty sure I heard this right) 7673 MagnaGuard Starfighter: 99.99 7680 The Twilight: Unknown (exclusive to either The Warehouse or K-Mart) 7678 Droid Gunship: Unknown (exclusive to either The Warehouse or K-Mart) Sorry that some of those prices are a little vague, but it is the best I can remember from my phone call. I'll be going out to layby/buy these sets as soon as they come out. Hope the rest of you are as excited as me!
JimBee Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Oh crap, they made the Plo Koon head a lot better! And the torso looks very promising!

So they are being released August first and not July like the other countries. Good to know the prices as well. But none of the shops in NZ are doing those clone building events or midnight madness. Is that correct? Oh and I know I've asked this already but I kind of want an answer so does anyone know what's in the top compartment of the RGS at the back or is that just extra storage space?

But none of the shops in NZ are doing those clone building events or midnight madness. Is that correct? As far as I am aware, there are no events to be had in relation to the release. Nz never gets any of the big release events like other countries, for some weird reason. As for your other question, I have no idea!
trooperdavinfelth Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Wow, I guess I have four of those six keychains in the actual fig in the garage waiting to be opened! Yes, I have the Republic Gunship in this very house.
Captain REX Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 OMG. Make a review. MAKE A REVEIW!. MAKE A REVIEW!
The Rancor Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) OMG. Make a review. MAKE A REVEIW!. MAKE A REVIEW! He's not going to open it until the weekend (so very, very soon), but I understand your urgency. God! At this rate there'll be no sets left for ME to review (I never get the chance). Edited July 18, 2008 by The Rancor
Erdbeereis Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I'm loving those keychians... Plo koon's head looks much better now than it did in the prelim pictures. And the clones look great as well. Can't wait to see the Republic Gunship! Unfortuneatly I have never had the good fortune to come across a set before anyone else to review it! Oh well, One day maybe! Thanks for the news!
simonjedi Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I always thought he was shouting or had a "battle cry" face His mouth is slightly open in all shots i've seen. Its probably because with the beard it would look weird when its closed, a mass of plasticy hair underneath his nose, you need the lip a little open to see that theres actually a mouth there and its not just a raccoon hugging his face.

I'm thinking probably not but I cant work it out for my self because I still don't know THE REAL PRICES for the cw sets Edited July 18, 2008 by Ctrl+Alt+Esc

At this rate there'll be no sets left for ME to review (I never get the chance). Actually, I have the figs on hand and I happened to take some pics...

His mouth is closed and his eyes don't look angry/constipated. It... Dare I say it, but it looks fine. EDIT: Pics ahoy! Hey, look at Commander Thire: He wears a skirt... (The kamas fit fine, but the pauldrons do NOT fit on regular clones because of the extended end bearing down.) Plo Koon(who has a rubbery head): Master Kenobi, I will never understand why this set has SO much gear. Assaj Ventress(don't have her skirt out yet): I wonder why I have four lightsabers now. Commander Cody: This is WAY too much gear... I hope they know we clones can't wear an antennae AND two floodlights, let alone a visor and one of either at the same time... Enjoy!

JimBee Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Awesome, TDF! Hopefully you won't do a review! The figs look great, I wonder why they come with double gear?

Ctrl+Alt+Esc Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) He was being sarcastic, (i hope), maybe he did overreact slightly to your overexcitement, but still theres no reason to go on an unadulterated bitchfest because of it. I predict a vacation in the chamber for you.EDIT: Not a chance, unless you steal half the sets, V-19 is about �50 so is the rouge shadow (its on offer in argos), AT-TE is 60 or 70 and Gunship is 80 i think, so you can afford the first 3. ah cool thanks I also have confirmation that the clon wars building event will be using the new phase 2 clones so go nuts Edited July 18, 2008 by Ctrl+Alt+Esc
The Rancor Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I like those pics of the minifigs themselves I'm surprised you got extra gear, I doubt it's like that in every set, just a malfunction. I would take it as a bonus though, the same thing happened for me when I bought the Hoth Base!
Lego12 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Wow, I guess I have four of those six keychains in the actual fig in the garage waiting to be opened! Yes, I have the Republic Gunship in this very house. Where did you get the Gunship?
The Rancor Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Where did you get the Gunship? Search the thread and find out, or PM him.
Joey Lock Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Do you think Lego will Realease a Clone Battle Pack? Adding up the sets you get 9 Clones overall if you get nearly all the new sets...Not much at all. Clone Trooper Battle packs would be good since people will snap them up like a flash. I know I would!
