Nootella Posted August 28, 2017 I pretty sure the "much much bigger" set is the falcon. There may be another UCS announced alongside it thats the standard UCS count, I'd honestly like to know what that one is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdubbs Posted August 28, 2017 I am a bit surprised that the first wave of Rogue One sets are retiring so quickly... just a year or so on the market. The first wave of TFA is (for the most part) still available... and those sets are a year older than the Rogue One equivalents. They could be keeping sets like the Falcon, Poe's X-Wing, First Order TIE, and Kylo's Shuttle around because they'll be featured in TLJ. But I hope it doesn't mean the Rogue One sets didn't sell well... I still have fingers crossed that we'll see a Rogue One Cargo Shuttle once Kylo's and/or Krennic's shuttles are off the market. 11 minutes ago, SCREDEYE said: I pretty sure the "much much bigger" set is the falcon. There may be another UCS announced alongside it thats the standard UCS count, I'd honestly like to know what that one is I think it's highly unlikely another UCS set would be announced alongside the UCS Falcon... it would be totally eclipsed by the attention paid to the Falcon, and no one would have the budget for two UCS sets at once. The next UCS set will likely come in the first few months of 2018, around the time the Snowspeeder was announced.... but the way I read his comments, the "big" set he's referring to is another system-scale set that he worked on, since those are the sets he warns are retiring.

Peasantseverywhere Posted August 28, 2017 Just flicking through the Star Wars section on Amazon UK and noticed an independent seller has listed all the sets - it's a trusted seller who I know stocks all the sets at RRP- and scrolling through the Last Jedi sets I nearly collapsed at the site of the U.K prices! £39.99 for the Resistance Transport Pod, 2/3 of the Resistance set it only occupies the cockpit of. Heavy Scout Walker at the price of £49.99 is also absurd. I swear Lego makes these prices up as they go along. Fortunately the more expensive sets are slightly more reasonable and with Triple points I can pick a few up but damn Lego another price increase and I'll be selling kidneys ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spongebob456 Posted August 28, 2017 Brexit, my friend - according to LEGO anyways. Anyway, not meaning to go political. Absurd prices. Wasn't looking to buy any of them anyway but you might as well pick up the troop transport which is sold at £39.99 too in some places, if you're not bothered about the minifigs.

Hoth Rebel Posted August 28, 2017 Well, the Pound is nearly worth as much as the Euro and those are the Euro prices so I doesn't suprise me. Anyway, they will probably retire TFA wave at the end of this year because of the facts that they are 2 years on the market, TLJ sets are out and there's a new MF coming in April.

Spongebob456 Posted August 28, 2017 Another MF? Must have missed that - I guess for the new Han Solo movie. Will be more details hopefully in the 2018 thread soon hopefully :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peasantseverywhere Posted August 28, 2017 I understand Brexit and the apple-bobbing of the pound but apart from licencing how can I pay £109.99 for Destiny's Bounty at 2295 Piece and get a "Gorilla Walker'' at £129.99 for over 700 less pieces - it just doesn't add up to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That should be enough explanation really. Disney, yo. Also, we aren't allowed to complain about prices here :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

force-ghost-solo Posted August 28, 2017 As I said before Except for the falcon there won't be another ucs set this year. I have reliable sources that the next ucs set coming in spring 2018 will be a new At-st with an exclusive at-st driver minifig. If there will be a much much bigger set in in the fall next year I can tell you in the upcoming months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brikkyy13 Posted August 28, 2017 Ok guys sorry to burst the speculative bubble, but BrickCommander just clarified that he was referring to the FO Star Destroyer on brickset. He also hinted at the 2015 MF retiring soon, and suggested that you "grab 2" so I'm guessing that means that there won't be another system scale MF for some time.

LordLEGOtube Posted August 28, 2017 The one thing I think they need to do to Han Solo is add a printed red corellian stripe down the side of his leg! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That and dual molded blue/black legs for his boots would make the perfect fig. Hopefully they do that in the UCS MF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Malgus Posted August 29, 2017 Was able to get Kylo Rens Tie Fighter and the Heavy Scout Walker the other day... being injured sucks as I really want to build them. The escape pod is a fathers day present (this weekend in Australia). At least these sets are different from the typical SW fare (escape pod excluded).
