Your Star Wars 2008 wantlist

[JimBee]

jedi council room! lots and lots of jedi! X-D :-P ;-)

[WookieeWarrior]

I'd like to see some Coruscant sets.

Bail Organa's airspeeder ($10). Maybe throw in a Yoda for good measure.

Anakin's Jedi airspeeder with a small version of Padme's apartment ( ($30-35). Give us a nice room with a lot of trans-clear pieces to make up the windows. Include the pregnant Padme from the end of the film.

Coruscant diorama (similar to Cloud City) ($80-100). 1 section for Palpatine's office, another for a senate pod or two, a small landing platform, and a large section for the Jedi Council. They don't need to include all 12 Jedi, just the ones that haven't been made available yet (which is around 6 or 7).

Most importantly, we need one of Padme's chrome ships. 'Nuff said.

I really loke Legoman's list !!

Due to the new speeder bike design, I'm sure we will see that in the future !!

I so agrees with you regarding Hoth and that new bike in white can really be sweeeeeet ;-)

Now I said already that I was feeling a Endor come back next year so I'll comment on that after his post

Endor Bunker

Includes large partly foldout bunker in/on a tree/trees, 5 ewoks, Endor leia, Han, Luke, R2d2, And C-3po on chair

Endor Rebel Battle Pack

Includes 3 ewoks, 2 Endor rebels, a speeder and a small tree OR catapult

Endor Imperial Battle Pack

Includes 2 Scout-troopers, 1 Stormtrooper, 1 AT-ST driver, a speeder and a tree OR some kind of logs

Okie here is what I think: at the end of the year we'll have an Endoe special set (like the Hoth base one) to announce the january BPs ;-)

In that respect I think Legoman's list is a tad off IMO: I would see: 2 Ewoks (dark tan and dark brown), Leia and Han (Luke doesn't take place in the bunker offensive ;-) ), C3PO (new color) and R2 + 1 imperial officer and 2 scouties

I'm probably a tad off because I have 9 Mfs and Hoth base had 7

Now regarding the Bps:

* I would think more like 2 Ewoks and 2 rebels with a glider and/or catapult (for once we can have one that makes sense X-D ) and vegetation

* I would love solely 4 scouties and a bike (+ new scoutie gun mould 8-

I am worried though that Lego might try just a door, which would be ok, but I would like more of a building effect akin to Aalya's sweet design. Bp's are the way to go, Lego!!!

That is probably what will happen, but if it is to gain more sweet figs and extras, Im quite confortable witrh the idea ;-) Well after its based on Endoor X-D

I would live a bunker copmike style 8-

[JimBee]

endor and hoth sets... that would be so sweet! *wub* *sweet* *wub*

ENdor: maybe they could have two of each hoth and endor? ;-)

Imperial: 3-4 scout troopers, an imperial officer, maybe a speeder and small tower

Rebels: 2 ewoks, 2 rebels (endor), a catupault, and... something else

Hoth:

Rebels: 4 hoth rebels, hoth defense turret, taun taun

Empire: 4 snowtroopers, tripod turret thingy, wampa

these would be sooo cool!

i also want phase 1 clones, and jedi 8-| ;-) X-D

Thanks Jim Butcher. :-$ In my opinion though your Ep.3 Chess Set idea is a little jumbled, no offense. :-)

Now for some positive Criticism...

-All the jedi you listed were all dead at the time of the fall of theJedi Temple except for Obi Wan and Yoda who were there afterwards.

-Bail Organa though not a Jedi was there for a couple minutes and did not do any fighting.

-Count Dooku and General Grievous were already dead at the time.

Hope that helps. ;-)

[Led ZePPelin]

Venator and a Trade Federation Battleship/Control Ship. *wub*

Even though the fig assortment could be cool (e.g. Neimoidians), they could give me 5 pilot Lukes (regardless of weather he existed then) and I'd still be happy. :-D

[JimBee]

tarful, i meant it to be the whole movie, as the title stated (kind of) . ;-) the fall of the jedi, to me, is when anakin turns sith, jedi die, and despair takes the universe. although for bail only plays a few seconds, he is a major influence, IMO, to the fate of the universe. it could be him or padme as the bishop, either way, it needs jedi! :-P X-D ;-)

i also think all rooks should be big things, like MINI vehicles or buildings, and knights should be small vehicles, like speeders, or jedi (hence jedi knight), but thats just me. im sure if TLC creates Chess sets for SW, (all episodes, of course! X-D ) they will be able to please all of us ;-) . all i want are good figs, especially jedi and snowtroopers X-D ;-)

Oops, I misunderstood, my bad. :-$ But perhaps a more fitting name would be the Order 66 Chess set...

That way the title is very clear as to what the subject matter is.

On another note I like your idea of Rooks being big vehicles while Knights could be smaller and swifter vehicles like Speeder Bikes and Hoth rebels on Taun Tauns. Perhaps some revisions are in order...

Only time will tell...HeHe X-D :-D
