GoldenNinja3000 Posted May 23, 2018 The Porg set has leaked. I thought that people were kidding when they talked about a UCS style Porg but I guess not! It looks cool and I might get it depending on the price. Looks like a $40 ish set to me but I wouldn’t be surprised if they made it $60 or something ridiculous.

Also is BB8 to scale to R2D2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forresto Posted May 23, 2018 The Porg is incredible! Hope the back is as good as the front and it's a 100 percent buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MKJoshA Posted May 23, 2018 Just a reminder to everyone to be careful about spoilers with Solo coming out soon. This is a public forum, so if you don't want to have the movie spoiled for you then it's safer to stay away. However, we do ask that you wait at least a week before openly talking about the film's contents. If you must post something spoilerish, use the spoiler feature! This will be enforced harshly in the coming days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THELEGOBATMAN Posted May 23, 2018 Porg looks great. They use cool techniques. His head expression looks like Ork or Troll, but I like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fuppylodders Posted May 23, 2018 I don't know why people assumed the price of the porg to be as cheap as £35-40 kind of region. Easily £60+... While it might 'look small' its not that small, similar height to bb8, and likely a piece count just below it probably by 150 pieces or so... Looks really good though, very nicely done, but I don't really feel any attachment to it enough to want to get it... Then again I've still not seen ep.8 yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And for the record, I triple-checked, and the spelling of the name from "Cloud Rider Swoop Bikes" is "Weazel". Additionally, there are multiple Dryden guards/tugs/whatever; at least two are included in 75219. Thanks! From the news thread 75219 (AT-hauler) has a better part/price ratio, but 75217 (Conveyex transport) sadly not. I have to see the film, because from the trailers I would prefer the Conveyex transport, let's see... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're still getting at least one set from The Clone Wars a year, and that's been cancelled for 4 years now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MKJoshA Posted May 25, 2018 A few hours after the movie's release and you have already failed. 4 posts I hid due to their contents having potential spoilers. Only 1 of the past 5 comments used the spoiler tags correctly. I'll unlock this later today. Till then, reflect on how you can all do better for the next week.

MKJoshA Posted May 25, 2018 Alright, this topic is open again. Read this forum at your own risk if you want to avoid Solo spoilers. However, for everyone who has seen the movie, please wait to talk about the movie for another week. If you must mention something, use the spoiler tag feature. Or else.

BacktoBricks Posted May 25, 2018 Looking at the Hoth summer set, the medical droid has dark grey legs which is not only different to last time, but is not accurate either. Seems to match the legs of the new Sandcrawler medical Droid. As these look like final promo images, I take it that this is what we will get? Seems like Lego didn't want to make two colours of the same piece. :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That being said, I don't know why the Medical Droid's legs are DBG either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
