See part of me thinks that's the case, but the other part of me thinks it started out doing well, they extended production, and accidentally overcorrected and made too many for the remaining sales. I bought it on discount over a year ago (which was still about a year into it's lifespan, I think), and then picked up a second one because that triple pack of clone wars sets was just too much plastic to pass up for $50.

Yeah, i could see it as some sort of hybrid-situation. Though other than this set having an extraordinary long shelve life, we will probably never know for sure. 

What was the fourth Clone Battle Pack, by the way? You got the 75345, 75359, 75372 and...? Is set 75280 still available?

I more ment that the Clone Bros are the Lannisters. Mentally ill Individuals with large amounts of cash who want complete control over the 7 subthemes.

Whilst we, honourable heralds of set balancing and the Tie Avenger, are the Starks who swear to keep the faith of the old theme.

So unless you think the series is about good vs. evil, you are saying the Clone Bros are the worst and you guys are... still bad, but just not as worse? I'd definitely like that definiton. Though i don't think it mashes well with your "honorable heralds" description.

Say what you will about this year, but that comparison‘s hyperbolic to the max  Yeah, too many Clones and buildable figures, sure, but what we do get is of good quality. We receive characters, remakes, and pieces people have been requesting for years and the builds look good too! Overpriced, yes, but still. 

GoT S8 had little to offer to anyone. It outright destroyed years of character development and made a farce out of everything  So it’s not even close to comparable.

Not even close. It would have to be a desasterous year to even plunge to the same low level.

Where is the like button? I couldn't agree more even if i tried. What's gotten worse and is peak problematic for 2025 is the severe lack of variety in sub-themes, which is primarily caused by the absolute overkill of 18+/non system scale set formats. However, what's left of it does not represent a quality problem for the theme as a whole. No amount of clones can change that.

This kriffin' clone kriff has to stop! I hope Lego goes bankrupt 

My only hope for now are the upcomming movies. If Lego makes sets for the movies there won't be any clones right? Right?  But okay, all these untiteled projects and future movies... we'll see what they will bring us.

The current situation is just so frustrating! But at least I'll save a lot of money. Maybe I'll buy a bicycle instead of Lego

More like... how do all these freaking adults dictate what Lego is supposed to make and is what's killing a lot of system scale set slots in the first place. 

Star Wars started out as cinema. Now it came down to creating a lot of annual content, which, in the age of binge watching society, is usually forgotten a lot quicker than movies which are considered cult classics and an integral part of pop culture. It all might went hand in hand with the returning PT hype and heavily requested Lego TCW comeback. Since then it sold very well for the Lego group, so they just kept the ball rolling and overcompensating in the eye of many (myself included) consumers. 

Nein, danke, ich verzichte darauf... und das will ich nicht hoffen. 

Look, i know the clone craziness has gotten out of hand and is way too much by now. But when i see comments like "worst Lego Star Wars year ever", i'd imagine the quality bar to be at an all time low. And this is clearly not the case. In that sense, it doesn't matter if we're getting five TCW/PT based sets or double that. That's a diversity problem, not quality. The latter, to me, is still an essential factor for judging a year of Lego Star Wars. 

There will be more OT-themed days ahead. Everything will be just fine... eventually. I'd think 2027 at the latest. 

That's the advantage when you always play catch-up to previously released sets... you never depend on specific waves for bringing something worthwhile. Besides, as you said, there is hardly any shortage of other points of interest to invest in. =)

Word. As I‘ve said before, it just seems like they took 3-4 years worth of Clone content and compressed it into two waves  I just hope they don‘t overcompensate from next year on by shoving a similar stream of OT sets in our faces  I want something from every era!

Luckily, with the new films, more diverse sets are back on the menu anyway, boys.

Yeah lego never releases sales data for specific sets like that. If it retires fast and was constantly on sale you know it did bad, and if it lasts for an insanely long time without sales you know it was good, but it's hard to gauge situations like this.

I don't remember set numbers but it was 501st Battlefront 2017 unit, 501st Togruta Cultural Appropriation unit, 501st vs Jar Jar, and then the pretty solid super battle pack with the shinies and coruscant guard.

For clone fans? Sure. But I guarantee you those same people would say the theme was complete trash from 2014-2021 or so.

I know! I've gotten more into collecting comics since there's so little lego that interests me this year. Which... man, the price on those have snuck up quite a bit since I was younger too, but at least I can choose from a variety of characters instead of walking into the shop and 90% of the volumes on sale are about clone troopers.

That's what they should do IMO, or at the very least, a comparative lack of clone sets. It's only a year. Give most clone fans, who can't responsibly drop $600 on legos every year, a bit of time to catch up while letting the OT/mando/ST fans open their wallets a bit more.

It sounds like they're doing what you want, and it simultaneously sounds pretty rough. Is anyone here hyped for ANOTHER 332nd pack?

Yep, i just want to make the clear distinction between variety and quality. I, of course, understand how the clone craziness can impact people's enjoyment of Lego Star Wars when they are not terribly interested in that era to begin with. Honestly, if this year was full of, say, ST themed sets, i wouldn't be all that stoked about it either. But if the sets in question are revolving around the idea of much requested and long overdue remakes, delivering exciting new minifigures and the quality is up to snuff for the most part, i could and would still acknowledge and appreciate these aspects. Just credit where credit is due, is all i'm getting at. No need to call it out as the worst thing ever just because it doesn't fulfill your personal preferences.

How funny would it be if you are to get your big OT blowout to celebrate the 50th anniversary, only for Lego to go back to clones immediately the year after.

While i would be somewhat appreciative of Lego being more transparent in terms of their themes' commercial performances, i also don't really mind it, because this means we have more stuff to talk about. 

Okay, so the "501st vs. Jar Jar" (what's the meaning behind this reference?) is the 75280 Super Battle Pack i was already assuming.

I am sick of just thinking about the possibility. And i remember people in here were already tired of 501st Battle Packs when the original 332nd one was leaked for 2023.

And the White Walkers are the Buildable characters for obvious reasons.

For your own sanity you may want to consider stopping the show after season 6 and reading the books instead.

I agree I don't hate this year at all, that's why I framed it as a question to stir discussion. GOT S8 would be more equivalent to the first order AT-ST.

No one is dictating anything, Lego is just making what sells. The truth is clones are way more interesting than faceless stormtroopers to most fans. Kids who grew up with the prequels and clone wars played with Lego, now they're grown up with money to spend and Lego is just capitalizing off that.

Let’s face it SW is the king of doing this introducing new units/trooper types/legions/vehicles whatever that never existed before until they are introduced and we just role with it.

i am one of those fools who will buy a new version of a P2 clone even though let’s face it they are all the same because they are clones doesn’t matter what they call themselves don’t really care they are just the same a copy of Jango fett. But if they release a new legion im an idiot who will buy it,  It’s the same for Jedi starifghters and Hoth snowspeeder they come in a new colour you bet im buying it and i dont regret it. 

I just wish they did it with imperials as much as they did with clones. I will wait for as long as it takes to get some purge troopers, or an incinerator trooper or army trooper or even just updated versions of death, range, and shore troopers.

Yep, Lego does what's best for their business, aka what makes them the most money. It's just naive to believe they decide things on a anti-this or anti-that basis.

Of course! How did i not put those two puzzle pieces together? Maybe because this set doesn't strike me as a Battle Pack. So i was thinking of the original 501st Super BP.

Suffice to say, this licensed theme has been the perfect fit for Lego to produce minifigures ever since. Heck, Star Wars is this monstrous merchandise machine in general. There's basically nothing that doesn't exist by now.

Oh yeah, i can definitely relate to this madness. I'm a sucker for a variety of different troopers. Preferably on clones and imperials. For the right price, i don't regret anything. 

As far as the Empire is concerned, i too hope Lego will follow suit and explore more options. The ones you mentioned are on my wishlist as well. Some Rogue One love for it's 10th anniversary would be also greatly appreciated.

That's my point- star wars does this across the board, clones aren't some sort of unique special thing carrying the franchise.

So uh

Cobb Vanth helmet 

Maybe the Jedi Bricks list is legit after all? Never thought I'd say that. We could all "predict" a Razor Crest and AT-AT coming, but this one actually gives some credibility. 

Edit: Wait actually he didn't have the helmet in that scene so maybe it's not a duel set with Bane.

True, but it's interesting that he put a Cobb Vanth thing on the list- IMO that actually, somehow, gives him a bit of credibility because it's a wild guess that seems to at least have gotten the character right. A set like this would be pretty solid, if the bantha was brick-built I'd probably buy it:

[CallumPears]

Hahaha Jedi Bricks just blocked me on Reddit for leaving a comment saying I had originally doubted that the list was true. (After leaving a reply to my comment from a fake account calling me an idiot, then blocking me so I couldn't respond)

Even if it is a real list of leaks he still just can't stop being an absolute loser

Maybe he knew about a Cobb Vanth minifigure and just made up a set as a guess, hoping he'd picked the right scene so it'd look like a more impressive leak? 

Edit: Oops thought they'd merge

Edited June 23 by CallumPears

[BrickBob Studpants]

…That is indeed Cobb Vanth‘s helmet  Great news! He‘s high on my minifig wishlist in any case, no matter what set he‘s in. He only has the helmet during the first episode of Mando S2, but it‘s not like that would stop TLG from throwing it into a TBoBF set  However, my guess would be a set with his speeder built out of a podracer engine, as in @Mandalorianknight‘s mockup.

As for the timing, maybe they‘ll release a handful of sets based on S1-3 as additional movie tie-ins sets? Granted, the teasers alone show plenty of set potential, but maybe they‘ll save some of those for the 2HY waves

My memory of BoBF isn’t perfect but didn’t Cobb Vanth get modded so he is alive and it could be for the Mando and Grogu film but then your right he doesn’t have the helmet now. My thoughts are maybe Lego is going to do a bunch of sets from seasons 1-3 of Mando and also sets from the film next year. Hope they do a Mayfield figure can’t really think of many other figures that haven’t been covered by sets already At least for things I’d want.

Kind of conflicted because I like the idea of the super commandos but not the clones. Wonder what kind of build that battlepack would have. Guess Lego have ran out of helmets so we’re in for 5 years of busts (and not the cool kind lol). I take it if the Vader bust is real it’ll be a remake of his helmet probably the same design plopped on top of some shoulders? I’ve got the helmet already so that’s a pass for me

Edited June 23 by Llewop

[avengers777]

I hope we eventually get actual sets based on the show, but I think the 332nd/Maul-dalorian battle pack and the Maul mech are loose tie-ins to Maul - Shadow Lord. I'd also guess that the V-19 with Ventress and Cobb Vanth vs. Cad Bane are similarly loose tie-ins to Tales of the Underworld. It seems like Lucasfilm is encouraging licensees to focus on characters featured in new media, for example, Hasbro is releasing a TVC Ventress, and Funko is putting out their first Pop of her, both based on her early Clone Wars design.

I think the implication is that it'll be part of the same line as the new Marvel busts, just translated to Star Wars now. The Marvel busts' helmets are significantly smaller than the standalone helmet sets' ones, so the Vader one (if real) will likely not use the same design for the helmet as it would be much too large.

[BrickBob Studpants]

If I‘m not mistaken, that set list comes from multiple sources, so Cobb Vanth being correct has little bearing on the veracity of the rest of the list  (Besides, we don‘t even know if that rumour is true either. Could be a different set with Vanth!)
