Brickwraith Posted May 17, 2018 i compared the helmet picture to the actual props, they are too tall, the vizor is too big, and they aren't big enough on the sides. Glad gold leader got the old design Throne room and anakin's starfighter look amazing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Archangelo Posted May 17, 2018 The throne room looks kinda... meh. I expected something more :l Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whovastron Posted May 17, 2018 Throne room looks awesome! Most anticipated summer set along with the X-wing for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
w219 Posted May 17, 2018 The sandcrawler looks very good. The x-wing looks good but something makes it not being awesome and i fear a huge number of sticker and even worse, stickers on the canopy. But where are the new helmets......So happy 75181 has old design. I like the Jedi starfighter but it is not as great as the first one, released in 2007 but i am very happy to see more TCW sets.

That Orange Thing Posted May 17, 2018 I really can't understand the need to re-buy every rebel pilot helmet in the new design if you have the old one already. I have a real problem collecting rebel pilots and I'm at 25+ but I'm looking forward to a change in design. They are a rag tag group anyway so the mishmash of helmets makes sense to me.

w219 Posted May 17, 2018 The droid in the sandcrawler seems to wear an imperial uniform. Is it from another set or from an already released one. It should have thinked it was good to protect it from sand storm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
THELEGOBATMAN Posted May 17, 2018 Sandcrawler is great. Anakin's starfighter is awesome. X-Wing is amazing. Throne Room is fantastic. Minifigures are incredible. Build is great. Price is bad. It looks too small for 70$. But those Praetorian Guards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HutchProDucktions Posted May 17, 2018 Does anyone know when the rumored Walmart Exclusive Hoth set and the rumored Tie Interceptor are supposed to be released? Would it be June or August? Also, wondering about the X-Wing as to where we are supposed to put the modification pieces to identify it as Red 5 or Red 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HutchProDucktions Posted May 17, 2018 Actually, nvm, just saw the video closely and saw Red 3 was the variant displayed at the event. It's not easy to see but its where it is supposed to be on the wing. It looks great! I'd say the worst set in this line is definitely the Sandcrawler. I'm actually shocked to see that Anakin's Starfighter is listed as a $20 set! Last time we had a starfighter in that size, it was listed for $30. Heck, even the Jedi Interceptors were like $25 from what I recall. This is going to be great alongside the current Obi-Wan Starfigher with Hyperdrive.

Richpepperell Posted May 17, 2018 Could an American please confirm when 'fall' is? I thought these were coming in August - is that summer or fall in the US? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

August is still Summer. We don't get Fall until September. However, Lego's releases may correspond to a season that is part of a majority of months of release.

Bantha Fodder Posted May 17, 2018 Why is there a white 2-1B surgical droid in the Sandcrawler set. I dont recall that droid being present in the sandcrawler. I Really dont hope that minifig is supposed to be the cz-1 droid, beacuse it doesn't look anything like it... Oh, and is the ra-7 droid in the sandcrawler the excact same minifig as we got in Lego 75051 Star Wars Jedi Scout Fighter, or is it a new print. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icm Posted May 17, 2018 It looks like the X-wing uses a different mechanism to open the wings than past models. The jacks between the wings are the same, but they're actuated by some sort of sliding mechanism instead of a simple knob. It'll be interesting to build that and see how it works.

Brikkyy13 Posted May 17, 2018 The X Wing looks amazing! The rubber bands that keep the wings together have been moved in between the engines Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
getbusybrickin Posted May 17, 2018 Brilliant! Theses sets are beautiful. Sorry to ask a redundant question, but when will these be released? Just now, Brikkyy13 said: The X Wing looks amazing!

LEGO has really out done themselves with these sets, taking into account many complaints of previous sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scarecrowman Posted May 17, 2018 It is also very nice to see the astromech droid sitting in a 4-stud wide position, as opposed to previous versions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
getbusybrickin Posted May 17, 2018 Pictures of an Imperial Landing Craft and the Hoth set just dropped! Unfortunately, I think there is a chance that the V-19 rumor came from seeing the Imperial Landing Craft and misinterpreting it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
