nikhkin Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) Another "leaked" image of the Falcon is over on Reddit. Personally I don't see it being real, but who knows... It claims 6274 pieces Edited May 30, 2017 by nikhkin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alexastor Posted May 30, 2017 As I posted on reddit: It's fake. The distances between logo and the information text isn't correct and LEGO would never put anything with such a bad lighting on the box. Ever. You can also see some artifacts from cutting the model out of a photo, and the background is way too plain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brikkyy13 Posted May 30, 2017 If that one isn't real whoever made it sure knew what they were doing. There are movement lines behind the ship, the gold borders look just like the other UCS sets and is that a new cockpit piece?!? On the other side that looks very similar to 10179, but if there are 6200 pieces maybe they found a way to rework it a bit and give it an interior? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just an orange sky, knowing Lego would make sure you see Cloud City in the distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nikhkin Posted May 30, 2017 I've had a look at quite a few images, and I can't tell the difference between the old version and the new, looking at details like smooth plates and greebling. Plus, you can buy a Force Awakens radar dish with what appears to be an identical build on eBay. To me this seems to just be someone taking an old image of the UCS Falcon, putting it on a box design and taking a blurry picture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commander Turtle Posted May 30, 2017 Shame, really. One of these days, LEGO will indulge us. Making a new Falcon would be printing money, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe CM4Sci was the first credible person to suggest it, saying it was "likely" over on reddit. That was some time before Stash2Sixx said anything about it. There were one or two other reliable leakers in-between who said we'd see a new largest set ever this year, but I've forgotten who. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I assumed it was a Jakku background as the MF has the TFA radar dish, wouldn't make much sense for it to have that in the image against a Cloud City background.

Brikkyy13 Posted May 30, 2017 @Andyperkins I think you're referring to the image from yesterday - the small and blurry one? Another "leak" popped up on the lego and legoleaks subreddit (legoleaks seems to have taken it down) and it shows the set's box over an orange sky. To those calling it fake - sure it could be, but what if the leaker deliberately posted it the day after the last fake to throw everyone off? Not saying I believe it, just a thought...

Legoleaks is taking posts down now that I have time to work on it. No one follows post formats and I've given all the posters a chance to reupload those pictures as rumours as long as they followed the first rule of the subreddit.

madroskylo77 Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) I just saw a leaked image of the tie bomber on one of the FB groups. Not sure if it's fake or not, but the box art is from the Rogue one wave. Edited May 30, 2017 by madroskylo77 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathstroke77 Posted May 30, 2017 Yeah, I think that one is fake, especially if it is using the Rogue One box art - the Episode VIII sets have the image of Rey, Poe and Finn in the top right corner on the box art, not the Deathtrooper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
