LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors

[TeufelHund]

Another Death Star? You think they would have learned after the first two got blown up. Isn't the definition of insanity to keep doing the same thing hoping for a different result?

[Aethersprite]

On that DS...

It's not a Death Star; that's Starkiller Base, built on an ice planet. (Hence all the snowtroopers)

[rollermonkey]

I was wondering why this 'death star' seemed to have an atmosphere.

Terraforming a planet into a weapon is a pretty nifty touch. Maybe this is why TLG had to end the planet series?

Well shoot, there goes my excitement for the possibility of another 'death star' like playset

Well, we're getting a new Death Star next year, I'm sure the sucker will have a lot of play features.

They need to use 12th Doctor's hair on Tarkin...

Really? I thought that was mere speculation, as the old/current Death Star wasn't retired this year. Hopefully the pictures will be released a while before it actually releases, because if it is different enough, I might just have to sell my old one in exchange for the newer one.

I don't think that's a atmosphere. I think that's a defensive energy shield like on Death Star II.

I'd rather have a Starkiller UCS or D2C than another Death Star.

[Tariq j]

I wouldn't mind another DS, depending on what it had to offer. The New sounds like its going to have all of features so it sounds pretty cool.

Some new sets at Toys R Us

Some new sets at Toys R Us

Wow, the price at the website is much more expensive that what the set prices suppose to been! $30 for a Jedi Interceptor? And what's the point for the website to sells sets that not released yet?

Those are canadian prices, which are higher then US prices

also, i wish i could get an interceptor for $30, they have a €30 list price here, and most shops ask €33 for them :(

Thanks for the correction, but it still overpriced even in Canadian dollars. The Jedi Interceptors feel more fit a $20 price USD tag better than a $25 USD price tag for me.

Droid Escape is 30$? Kinda high, but with 4 minifigs understandable. Jedi interceptor is 30 , when it's basically the same as 2014 one which was 20$. Sadly no TFA sets leaked.

This is going to be really weird for me (considering ive been complaining about lego, and SW in particular being overpriced here in europe), but im honestly fine with paying €30 for an interceptor, after building one last week im quite impressed with the thing, even if part-count wise the price is insane.

While I agree it should be lower, $30 for the Jedi Interceptor is on point with the previous Anakin's Jedi Interceptor here in Canada. As well as $16 for the upcoming Empire BP is the price point we had for the Rebels stormies BP & $13 for a Microfighter.

Just the norm here in Canada. Just glad it hasn't increased like EP VII set.

Cool, i like that we're getting Hera with the ghost, and that BP looks awesome, not so worried about 75078 retiring now (id love a few technichians)

Ill probably get the Interceptor as well, though i might fix the ship to be the same as anakin's interceptor, the angles on that one look better

[Raskolnikov]

I hope that the Toys R Us information suggests that those sets will be released sooner rather than later. After all, I think Battlefront is scheduled for a November release, so it'd make sense to get the battle packs tied to the game in stores as soon as possible. I can't wait to start stocking up on black Imperial officer caps.

They'll be January 1st. Don't get your hopes up. TRU might jump the gun late in the holiday season, but why pay their inflated prices anyways?

Stoked to start accumulating that Imperial battlepack. As good as the Rebel one is, an Imperial Technician AND battle-scarred Stormies in the same pack is a dream come true.

Nice to also see the official term for that grey AT-DP pilot variant - "Imperial Combat Driver". I'll pick up one of the bike just for him, even though I've got like three Kanans already...

[Kman860]

Personally I want some more regular stormies

[firefox]

this one?

Now that's an interesting movie!

[Kman860]

Well, if that was the movie, we would know that starkiller base gets blown up...along with everything else
