No you misunderstand me. It was 'OT and TCW stuff (and prequel stuff to a lesser extent)' because outside of TCW stuff or clone stuff in general Prequel sets aren't as common. 

That makes more sense, but I'd say we're definitely getting a lot of prequel sets this year. They're mostly ones relating to clones, but it's not like having clone troopers in it means the ARC-170 isn't a prequel set. Even with the more nebulous stuff like the big clone legion packs where the builds don't match with anything well, I'd say they're more based on ROTS than TCW, since we saw the phase 2 327th for all of three seconds in TCW, and I don't believe the snowtrooper-armor style Galactic Marines appeared at all, aside from maybe Bacara. And then of course you have two different Jango's Slave Ones, the Blade of Dorin microfighter, etc.

Are we sure it's Cobb Vanth's helmet? Maybe it's still Boba Fett and is based on his appearance during the Battle of Tython. (Before he adds fresh paint to the armor)

This is also definitely possible.

Yeah, that was also my thought. Maybe one of the Imperial landing vehicles which he blew out of the sky?

My major gripe for this years‘ selection is that it feels like the anniversary of ROTS is being used like a trojan horse to flood the market with Clones. Where is Anakin? Where is ROTS Obi Wan? Where is Padme (is she alright?) No Arrest Scene? Battle of the Heroes?

I've been wanting an imperial lander for years, I hope they get around to it.

(Looking back this is not one of my better ones, those spring shooter triggers are going to get stuck in the hull and those 2x2 corner tiles stick out like a sore thumb)

 

It is weird that we aren't getting some form of mustafar- I feel like a diorama's been expected since they introduced the format- but yes, you are correct. Lego knows it's not so much prequel fans as it is clone bros.

Llewop, Mandalorianknight: Thank you for your replies about TIE Avenger campaign. I get it, I'm just a little pessimistic about LEGO's willingness to release certain sets. But there's always hope.

With the new damaged Boba Fett helmet, I hope that LEGO will finally release a repainted Boba Fett helmet from TBoBF in the correct color sometime in the future.

There is always hope. They made a set based off the Prototype Kenner Sandspeeder awhile back, and a firespeeder this year. Nothing is truly out of the question entirely (Though I will personally be putting my money on a jungle camo speeder and a waterspeeder)

Boba really needs a new color- I know it's waaaaaayyyy too much to do for a single figure, but it'd be the only way to accurately capture him. 

7 hours ago, Tariq j said:

Yeah, whilst I do think the sets are good it feels like key stuff was missed here. The Battle of the Heroes, Greivous vs Kenobi, Dooku vs Anakin and Obi Wan, Yoda vs Palpatine (the latter two have never been done before). 

The Invisible Hand duel would be a great set and a good way to get another Dooku. I'd happily have taken that over the smaller slave one, or the 327th big pack, or the galactic marines jumbo pack

Looking at that small photo and before that, looking at Vanth's helm, they, look the same? Or, very very similar.

Because it is the same- that's the point Zap was making. 

Cobb "borrows" Boba's helmet for a while, then Boba gets it back and wears it on Tython to fight off the Stormtroopers. Then he repaints it later, but for the battle on Tython it had all the same markings as when Cobb had it. 

So yeah if all we know for sure is that the helmet is being made then it could either be S2E1 Cobb, S2E6 Boba, or just sitting in the Razor Crest where Din Djarin kept it for the duration of S2E2-S2E5.

But I can sure as mustafar ask for it. (Day #61 of lobbying for a Tie Avenger like Perrin for a party)

Ah yes. One of the more needed imperial vehicles due to it being in both Mando and Kenobi. Right up there with: Tie Avenger, Tie Reaper, Tie Defender remake, ISB Tactical Shuttle, Zeta Class Shuttle, ITT, AT ACT, AT DP remake, and a patrol gunship. Though I’d argue the ITT is more in dire need of a set than the assault lander just by pure screen time.

I’m pretty sure empire’s got a larger backlog of undone vehicles than clones at this point.

I personally am expecting: Urban, imperial, Christmas, clone trooper and gold variants before the next normal variant as well.

Star Wars has its 50th anniversary coming up in just under two years.  I wonder what that wave will be like.
 

 Anniversary years make it harder to do balance well unless it cuts into the other subthemes more than the playsets.  (They should have done a ROTS diorama of mustafar or palpatines arest, or even yoda vs palp for the record - would have been better than doing a third helmet or third starship or fourth buildable character).  

I hope we get a UCS Sandcrawler for the 50th. The old one still holds up but has the issue of brittle brown. As for ROTS anniversary I feel like the sets we're getting aren't iconic to the film besides the Arc-170. I'd much rather have a new Dooku than background clones

Buzz Lightyear to Eurobricks Command. Come in, Eurobricks Command. Eurobricks Command, come in. Do you read me? Why don't they answer? My Tie Avenger! Blast! This will take months to release. Buzz Lightyear mission log, star date 4-0-7-2. My Tie Avenger has run off course en route to summer 2025.

Maybe Lego will treat us and add Ralph McQuarrie’s concept art of characters as anniversary figures.

Or better yet, they do a D&D 50th and make a fan competition Ideas set and CMF. (Video games or Books are ripe for a CMF)

However, there would preferably be some rules regarding the ideas competition having to be something not as well covered before by Lego since otherwise there would be a lot of clone wars brigading instead of us getting something truly unique as a celebration of 50 years of SW.

Lego: Best i can do is to let you all wait to infinity and beyond. 

 

As for the 50th anniversary of Star Wars, i could see Lego releasing some special colored minifigures, comparable to HP's gold ones, just more in a silver-ish tone. If not, i'd be okay if they were to repeat 2024's approach of releasing never before made characters. Or any anniversary figs are reserved for 2029, while 2027 just gets a classic line-up of sets with some branding on the boxes.

Come to think of it... Would we have gotten a Palpatine's Arrest remake if the Diorama Collection wasn't paused for this year? Debatable. But it would at least increased the chances of that to happen. Oh well. 

Yeah I'm surpised they didn't do a one off anniversary diorama. Anakin vs Obi Wan would have been perfect for something like that. Vader's transformation would have also been pretty fun too. Like if they want to do Clone sets fine but they could've had at least ONE set with the main characters in it!

With the really expensive Death Star coming out I wonder if they might do a more affordable, smaller one for the 50th.

Yeah the more I look at the small Slave 1 I just wish they'd done it in the style of the 2019 Slave as oppose to the 2021 one. Does make me wish we'd got the Invisible Hand instead.

Yes, i agree. And that's the unfortunate part... it would have taken so little consideration and effort to make a fairly big difference regarding some people's perception for this Lego Star Wars year. 

 

On another note, it's been known for a while that the next Lego Star Wars Magazine for Germany, Austria and Switzerland will include an Ahsoka (T-6 Shuttle) minifigure. The more interesting part to me is that it includes a sticker sheet which features many main characters that either have been relatively recently released or are still currently available... and Count Dooku. Not saying this has to mean anything, but i feel like he will return soon. Fingers crossed for 2026.

I hope they focus mainly on A New Hope since that is the movie turning 50. I think a new UCS Falcon is highly probable, we had one in 2007, 2017, 2027? I'd be more surprised if we didn't. I could also see us finally getting a new y-wing. 

[Meaf]

I think a focus on ANH would make a lot of sense too given what's on the schedule for 2025 and 2026. This year is the clone bonanza of course, and next year might be a little more varied but I imagine a lot of it will be focused on the Mandalorian (judging by the leaks, both the movie and the tv series). We've not gotten a lot of ANH sets in the last few years, and a lot of the most iconic locations and vehicles haven't been made at regular system scale in ages. Assuming none of these get remakes next year, by 2027 it will have been:

- 7 years since we got a cantina (9 years if you exclude the MBS)

- 10 years since we got an OT Y Wing (I'm excluding the tiny version in the Yavin set)

- 7 years since we got a Landspeeder

- 11 years since we got Vader's Tie Fighter

- 16 years since we got an OT Millennium Falcon (not that the ST version is that different, but still)

And these are just some obvious ones that I came up with off the top of my head. I'm not really a fan of having entire waves dedicated to one movie/series, but if there were any time when it was justified, the 50th anniversary would probably be it. 

[BrickBob Studpants]

I think they‘ll treat it more as the 50th anniversary of the franchise as a whole rather than ANH specifically  Releasing a bunch of ANH sets would be nothing special since they‘ve done that before, so they‘ll likely go for something more unique, hopefully.

[Llewop]

So the clone bp is apparently going to be £35 in the U.K. 10 more than than the pack from last January. Same price as the anniversary battlepack but always had hoped that it was the fact it was anniversary set that made the price rise just turns out it’s the usual corporate greed.  No idea how a set premise (faction vs faction) can go up by 40% in 20 months inflation isn’t that bad just pure greed and I’m actually properly enraged by it

There are still a handful of ships/vehicles with screen time (special edition at least) that have never had a set.  Plus Bantha and Ronto have never really been in a meaningful set.  Could see one or both of those.  

 

I am surprised the Death Star was not saved for 2027 but released this year (supposedly).  Makes the UCS options for that year interesting (the falcon is a good theory, every ten years a new one?).  

 

Wondering if we are getting a ton of clone sets this year because the next two year each have major events (Movie, Anniversary).  I still think the problem with sets this year is we are getting 4 buildable characters, 3 helmets, 3 starships, plus the logo which all cut into the ability to balance the sets out better.  I think we should have gotten 7 of these at most giving us 4 more play sets to balance things out.

I think 2027 would be a bit soon for a cantina, the MBS one was one shelves for over 4 years. The rest of the sets are probably due for a remake.

More unique cantina aliens, please. Give me Hem Dazon at long last, you cowards. 

Won't say no to a modern Y-Wing, even though i am content with my Rogue One model. 

Vader's TIE Advanced is a definite yes from me. Reminds me i still gotta get the Interceptor for the TIE family. 

So is an OT Millenium Falcon. Though since it would probably be another UCS one, i gotta be patient for a system scale set. 

Last, but certainly least, lock away any Landspeeder plans and throw away the key!

Well, they basically sold you two Battle Packs in one set for the old price point. It was nothing short of a steal by today's Lego standards and pretty obvious the price won't last long. The writing was truly on the wall with this one. However, the really scummy part is that they increased the BP's prices in the US even further, while also decreasing the value by taking out two B1s. Charging more and delivering less is, of course, never a good look.

I’m not even worried, nobody will be buying that set. The fact we are forced to talk about it is ridiculous because it should never have been priced this way.

Not the same- the starfighter figure has a raised eyebrow and is more confused rather than angry. This new one looks pretty close to the one from the Kenobi series, just with a few less wrinkles. 

A bit late to this discussion, but nonetheless, I’m gonna wager it is the same face print, wrinkles and all. Something about the “smiley” face on the V-19 leak spoke to me as older than the recent AotC or RotS faces.

I’m going to have a moment of delusion what about a Mandolorian CMF. I know there is no chance 

Unfortunately there’s not a lot such a series could provide for most fans when we have received wonderfully detailed minifigs from the show and could continue to in future sets. Sure, Jack Black in Star Wars would be neat for Jack Black fans, but there’s already I Am Steve. Maybe a Muddy/Battle-Damaged Mando, but I think a Mudhorn set would be far more appealing.

That’s a good point. The Imperial Landing Transport has always been a neat vehicle and equally neat set idea. Like @TotoMagnus, though, I’d prefer Cobb’s Speeder. (Chapter 14 really fell flat the last time I watched it, while Chapter 9 still has remained strong from its premiere until now. One of the main reasons I’m optimistic about the Mando and Grogu movie.)

The Sandcrawler is a weird one for me personally. It feels it should be iconic, but I hardly remember it. When I think of A New Hope, I remember, in order, the Falcon, Death Star, TIE Fighter, X-Wing, and Y-Wing before I remember the Sandcrawler. That could be just the difference in generations of fans, or maybe a different preference, or maybe representation in marketing by Disney. Still, I’m anxious for a new UCS Sandcrawler as well.

A new UCS Falcon then would too early, I feel. Yes, the upgrade after ten years would be most impressive, but the current word on the earliest when the current Falcon will retire is 2026, a year shy of when you propose a new one should release. (At any rate, after building the Falcon this year, I don’t feel it shows it’s age one bit, minifigs aside.) If the Death Star had a period without a UCS set, I believe the same can be true of the Falcon.

My proposal for a new UCS Falcon is 2030 for the 50th of Empire, since it has a far more prominent role in that film. Obviously, the crew included wouldn’t have to be regulated to just Episode V, just like the 2017 Falcon wasn’t regulated to just the Ep IV crew, if that’s a concern.

You’re right. TLG will celebrate the franchise as a whole by ignoring its most iconic movie. That can only mean they’ll do another wave of clone mania, which can only be a good thing, right? Yippee!

On a serious note, I believe a balance can be and ought to struck between repetitive remakes and gatekeeping new collectors. We’ve had a minute since several previous remakes, so I hope those are what we see next year and the year after. If 2027 saw the same X-Fighter V TIE-Wing builds with a bland OT lineup, I’d be with you on wanting something more unique. On the other hand, kids ought to have the chance to buy Luke Skywalker in his X-Wing, which isn’t the case at the moment. Despite my unlearned stance, I believe there’s a better way to do this LSW business than what’s being done at the moment.

2027 is also when Starfighter is supposed to release. So the question is how many set slots will be actually available for 50th Anniversary play-sets if the current trend of 18+ and Buildables continues.

I concur. At least a set based off each PT and OT movie would be good. And maybe even some space for the more well liked of post 2010 content (TCW, Rebels, Rogue One, Andor, Battlefront, Mando, maybe even a Jedi set since the 3rd game will likely release that year.)

We need people to draw the line somewhere. Otherwise Lego will continue to raise prices like this since they don’t think there will be consequences. I sure hope those who are planning to army build 327th are at least patient and wait for them to go on sale.
