10-15$ ghost microfighter with hera

$15 and include Chopper! I suspect that we will actually get this sometime in 2024 (maybe 2HY?), since LEGO often puts Minifigs into Microfighters that already appeared in more expensive sets from prior waves. 
 

A few that I thought of, in light of the new Swamp Speeder: 

Republic BARC Speeder  
 - $27 
 - Around 150 pieces 
 - 4 Minifigs (1x Commander, 3x Troopers from any Clone unit) 
 - Build is a red-detailed BARC with sidecar 

Republic AT-RT 
 - $27 
 - Around 150 pieces 
 - 4 Minifigs (1x Commander, 3x Troopers from any Clone unit) 
 - Build is a regular (non-unit-specific) AT-RT

The Dagger is good, too and was never done if I remember correctly.

They actually made one, 75272. Somewhat oversized, heavily overpriced.

Anyway I'll try to contribute some ideas to this thread, I want to do that occasionally but then I think about details like pricing and minifigs. And then I stop writing my posts.

Ah, yes - cheers. I own this, lol.

There is no set way of doing this thread, trust me. I used to read this forum in 2011-14 and writing prices and figs was the main format and I just went with it.

I really like this post. I would have Phase II Shiny Clones in one and maybe an Arf Trooper in the AT-RT OR an AT-RT Driver and hence kashyyyk based.

Seeing that we are now getting a UCS 650$ Venator, I could really see us getting a Jedi Temple in lego form.

Lego also seems to be more confident about location sets that are high in detail. The other key indicator would be the Rivendell set, all figures from one faction and no “action features” per se, more just focus on the great architecture and key areas from the location.

I could see this happening in two ways, 1. We get a MBS style Jedi temple that is either the exterior of the temple with key interior locations and some figures or no exterior but some key interior locations fleshed out with figures. 
2. We get a set like the throne room or Dagobah of the jedi council room, showing half or all of the round chamber with between 6 or 12 figures. 
 

It would be really interesting to hear how other people see this location playing out as a set in the future!

I think it’s almost a given, really. 

I would expect a UCS prequel set every two years. 

Imagine a Dropship or a Turbo Tank before it, though.

I remember that one huge MOC for the Turbo Tank back in 2010. Would probably be cheaper than the AT-AT at least.

Yes I agree, I think it’s very very likely we will get it in some form now. 
I also agree that we are much more likely to see ‘other content’ UCS/MBS mixed in with the OT ones (by other content I mean anything non OT, so the Razor Crest being a good example).

 

I’m very intrigued to see how TLG would actually approach a set like this, but my best guess is, something similar in piece count and price to the Venator (maybe more). 
 

Best case I would hope for something like the Cantina with exclusive alien figs and a great representation of the key areas from the temple!

It is never too early! ;) 

I will comment on your list in due course, and I’ll also attempt at doing both my PREDICTIONS and WISHLIST tomorrow.

I have a seven-hour journey, so plenty of time! 

Let’s say I already know I’ll be agreeing with a few of yours…

Excellent list @ArrowBricks, I could easily see us getting almost all of those sets. My one super minor nitpick is that we had a christmas outfit for Mando in 2021, so I'm not sure we'd see one again so soon. Maybe a Christmas Ahsoka or Obi-wan.

Edit: I totally blanked and left off my Clone Wars (seasons 1-3) wave:

Microfighters:

Anakin's Delta-7 starfighter ($9.99): Anakin Skywalker (clone wars armor). R2-D2 dome printed on the BB-8 head.

Battle Packs:

Commando Droids ($14.99): 3x commando droids (new, accurate grey/orange coloration), 1x commando droid captain. Build is a commando droid speeder.

Duel: Versus Grievous ($19.99): Republic frigate bridge with Grievous and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Sets:

Plo Koon's Starfighter ($29.99): Plo Koon's Delta-7 with Plo Koon, Ahsoka Tano, and a republic astromech.

Kamino Defense ($39.99): Kamino platforms and catwalk with explode features. Comes with Echo, Fives, 99, 1x b1 battle droid, and 2x buildible Aqua Droids.

AAT ambush ($54.99): AAT (Larger than 2020 model) and a bit of terrain with an explode feature. Comes with Yoda, Jek, Thire, Rys, and 2x tank driver B1s.

Cad Bane's Starfighter ($69.99): The Xanadu Blood with Cad Bane, TODO-360, Aurra Sing, 2x senate commandos, and a Senate Commando Captain.

Republic Shuttle ($99.99): Republic Nu-Class shuttle with Anakin Skywalker, 2x Clone Pilot, Captain Rex (P1), Ahsoka Tano, R2-D2, and 2x clone trooper (p1).

Quote sets:

Sacrifice ($69.99): Rishi outpost control room with Heavy, 3x b1 battle droid, and 2x commando droid. Quote is "Do we take prisoners?" -B1 battle droid... "I don't" -Heavy.

Thank you very much. 

Ah, that shows my calendar knowledge, haha! 

I forgot to add the MIDI-scale Millenium Falcon £59.99 to my list as well! 
 

I’d love Lego to do TCW legacy stuff. However, I doubt they ever would. But, I’ve listed some of my favourites here.

Yeah, I doubt we'd ever get much TCW legacy stuff. There are just too many movies and shows now, the most we'll generally get is TCW figures/colors for well-known prequel vehicles. Something like the Xanadu Blood will realistically never happen.

And now for seasons 4-7:

Microfighters:

Ahsoka Tano's ETA-2 starfighter ($9.99): Ahsoka Tano (S3-5 outfit)

Droid Tri-fighter ($9.99): B1 battle droid.

Umbaran starfighter vs Z-95 headhunter ($19.99): 501st pilot, Umbaran soldier

Battle Packs:

Mandalorian warriors ($14.99): 2x mauldalorian (1 male, 1 female), 2x death watch mandalorian (1 male, 1 female). Build is some of the city terrain with an explode feature.

Republic Clone Troopers ($14.99): 4x P2 "shinies", with the holes in their helmets and a set of black visors, macros, and rangefinders, alongside a cloth kama and pauldron to make one a commander. Build is a BARC in standard GAR colors. (Smaller than 2020 BARC, but with a sidecar)

Duel: Maul returns ($19.99): Hallway in Hondo's base with Maul, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Savage Opress. (Side note: There aren't many 1v1 duels in the latter half of the show. I was gonna do ahsoka V ventress from the trial arc but I realized I needed Obi-Wan in a set)

Gregor's Last Stand ($39.99): segment of landing bay with explosive crates (and explode features), as well as a buildible loadlifter. Comes with Gregor, R2-D2, QT-KT, 2x b1, and 2x b2.

Z-95 headhunter ($49.99): Headhunter with clone pilot, Commander Wolffe, and 2x wolfpack troopers, alongside a buildible droidika.

HMP Gunship ($59.99): HMP droid gunship with Ahsoka, Saw Guerrera, Steela Guerrera, and 2x super battle droids.

Umbaran Starfighter and clone barracks ($89.99): Umbaran Starfighter and a small build for the clone barracks (bunks, crates, etc), as well as a buildible Vixus. Comes with Fives, Hardcase, Jesse, Kix, Rex, Dogma, and 2x umbaran soldiers.

Republic Cruiser ($129.99): Republic Counselor-class cruiser with 2x clone officers (no armor), Thorn, 2x shock trooper, Padme Amidala, Anakin Skywalker, 2x Munns, and 2x commando droids.

UCS: UCS BARC Speeder and AT-RT($199.99): P2 "Shiny" (Arm printing), ARF trooper (arm printing, new helmet mold)

 

 

And as a reminder,  I'll be starting the annual community wishlist MOC wave in about a month (maybe a little later depending on what the May the Fourth contest here is about this year), so if anyone has any sets they want to see made, let me know! 

This is the template I'm planning on using for the overall wave layout:

2 microfighters

1 microfighter duel pack

2 battle packs

1 200-ish pc "duel" set in the style of the starkiller base or mustafar duels

1 "semi-battle pack", or a 300-400ish pc set with 4-6 figs

4-5 standard system sets ranging from 200ish to 1500ish pieces

2 quote sets ranging from 500ish to 1000ish pieces

1 retail polybag set, like a small vehicle or something

2 GWP style sets: a small 40-ish pc polybag and a 100-200ish pc set. Something like the Lars Kitchen or Endor diorama set.

Seriously guys, any suggestions for these, just list em out!

I'll throw in a few off the bat:

Microfighter dual pack: Anakin and sebulba's podracers (TPM supremacy!)

Imperial v-wing from the Bad Batch. A mainstay of this thread.

Mon Mothma's Coruscant speeder from Andor, although it might end up being around the same price as the v-wing.

With Lego continuing to release Clone legions (and often inaccurately), I wouldn’t be surprised to see these at some point in the future.

I've been developing a few ideas, thought I'd throw in the first few.

Imperial Zeta-class shuttle - 169 euros /// 1300-1400 pieces /// minifigs: two pilots, two shoretroopers, Jyn in disguise and K-2SO ===|||=== I’d rather have chosen a more generic scenario or even from Jedi: Fallen Order but Rogue One would make the most sense. I haven’t seen that movie often enough to make a good minifig selection so this should do. As for the build, it should have a detachable cargo hold of course.

Midi scale Imperial Star Destroyer - 49-59 euros /// 500 pieces /// minifigs: none (because you can't have it all) ===|||=== Slightly smaller than the upcoming SSD, with a small stand. Just like the 8099 version, but modernized. Pretty straightforward.

Z-95 Headhunter - 39 euros /// 400 pieces /// minifigs: pilot, one ground crew ===|||=== I’m talking a good old Expanded Universe four-engined Z-95 Headhunter, not those funny looking things from TCW. I know this one has been stupidly easy to make a MOC of for more than 20 years but I just want Lego to make one. No I will not be reasonable. The minifigs can be either early Rebel Alliance or whatever pirates/smugglers.

There's more where that came from. Both somewhat realistic suggestions and outlandish (but fun) ones.

Thought of a slightly different idea for a wishlist... An advent calendar. Here are the parameters I have completely arbitrarily come up with on a whim:

8 minifigures, two from each era of: prequels/TCW/TBB, OT/Andor/RO etc, ST/Mandoverse, plus one holiday special character and one exclusive non-holiday character. I know the last couple of calendars seem to have eschewed this in favour of more holiday prints, but getting things like Antoc Merrick or the cloud car pilot was really cool. Since LEGO seems to like using figures from existing sets, I'll try and stick to that too, although it will only include sets that are currently on shelves or announced rather than currently rumoured. I'll try and have an equal split of good guys and bad guys (though not necessarily between eras), and three main characters (not including the holiday special one).

For the mini-builds, I will try and theme them around the minifigures (so a pattern of two minibuilds followed by a minifigure every three days). I know this isn't always done (particularly recently) but it makes things easier here. Aiming for a roughly 2/3 ratio of microscale builds to ones that minifigures can interact with. And there has to be a weapons rack in there somewhere, obviously.

The exact order of days can be chopped and changed too - I just did it chronologically for convenience. So without further ado...

Days 1-3: Minifigure: 212th trooper. Mini-builds: micro AV-7 cannon and micro AT-AP.

Days 4-6: Minifigure: Cad Bane (basically the only prequel option that isn't a battle droid). Mini-builds: a micro Justifier, and a weapons rack but with Todo-360 to sweeten the deal.

Days 7-9: Minifigure: Chewbacca (snow print, same as in the Hoth AT-ST). Mini-builds: snow bank with 'snowball' stud-shooter and a micro Millenium Falcon.

Days 10-12: Minifigure: TIE pilot. Mini-builds: micro TIE bomber and probe droid (again same build as the one in the AT-ST, but maybe in black rather than dark bley).

Days 13-15: Minifigure: Bo-Katan. Mini-builds: micro Gauntlet and micro Mando's N-1.

Days 16-18: Minifigure: Dark trooper. Mini-builds: a sliding door for it to punch, and a micro light cruiser.

Days 19-21: Minifigure: Cobb Vanth (exclusive! New face, torso and maybe leg prints). Mini-builds: micro krayt dragon lair with tiny krayt dragon, and a micro ballista with stud shooter.

Days 22-24: Minifigure: Christmas elf Kuill. Mini-builds: a reindeer blurg, and a sleigh with presents.

I've tried to keep it realistic - it would be quite easy to make each day a super interesting micro-build, but very few calendars have bangers every day. Would love to know people's thoughts, or their own versions of it!

@TeddytheSpoon, that's a super interesting idea, I might try my hand at one later. Yours is very good, with that mix of desirable figures, generic ones, and mini-builds. I was going to say that two exclusive figs is too much for SW, but they have started spreading the prints out to different characters, so I think Cobb and Kuill are definately possible (Say Cobb has unique torso and head prints, and Kuill just has an exclusive torso, or something.)

ARC-170 Starfighter ($69.99): Captain Jag, Clone Pilot, R4-P44, Plo Koon (New Head!).

Battle on Mustafar ($59.99): Anakin Skywalker (yellow eyes, burnt robes), Obi-Wan Kenobi (new hair, dual-molded legs). Includes the mining droids, and falling tower. "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you." I know "You were the chosen one" is probably the quote of choice, but this one feels more emotional.

212th Battalion Troopers Battle Pack ($24.99): 3x 212th Clone Trooper, Airborne Trooper, 2x Super Battle Droid, Crab Droid.

If it's OK with you, I want to throw all of the quoted into my MOC wave for the summer.

The Aldhani Heist £39.99

Naboo Starfighter Vs Vulture Droid £59.99

Great suggestions. I've taken the Duel and Acclamator and added them to the list. The Aldhani heist is a maybe, as I saw a solid MOC of it awhile back and don't want to be influenced too much by it.

Naboo Starfighter Vs Vulture droid is good as-is, but what do you think of splitting them into Mando's N-1 and putting the Vulture droid in a set with an ARC-170? I don't really have a preference either way, so it's up to you.

Z-95 Headhunter - 39 euros /// 400 pieces /// minifigs: pilot, one ground crew ===|||=== I’m talking a good old Expanded Universe four-engined Z-95 Headhunter, not those funny looking things from TCW. I know this one has been stupidly easy to make a MOC of for more than 20 years but I just want Lego to make one. No I will not be reasonable. The minifigs can be either early Rebel Alliance or whatever pirates/smugglers.

If you're good with it, I'll throw this into my MOC wave as, like, a "retail exclusive" or something.

 

This is how the list is looking now, assuming @Big_Daddy and @ARC2149Nova are OK with their ideas being made into MOCs:

 

(OPEN) 2 microfighters

@TeddytheSpoon's Microfighter duel pack: Anakin and Sebulba's Podracers ($19.99): Anakin and Sebulba

(OPEN) 1 battle pack (I'm thinking new republic troopers from Ahsoka unless anyone's got another idea)

@ARC2149Nova's 212th troopers battle pack ($19.99): 3x 212th trooper, 1x 212th airbourne. Build is a BARC Speeder (I did a crab droid in a battle pack for the first MOC wishlist wave, and don't want to repeat)

@ArrowBricks's Coruscant hanger duel ($19.99): Coruscant hanger with collapsing door. Comes with Dooku and Yaddle.

@TeddytheSpoon's Imperial V-wing Starfighter ($24.99): Imperial V-wing with 2x TK trooper and 2x Clone Commando (This has become the semi-battle pack)

@Big_Daddy's Z-95 Headhunter (Celebration Exclusive, $49.99): Mara Jade, 1x New Republic pilot, 1x New republic soldier, 1x NR astromech (NR figs with appearances based on Empire at War).

(OPEN) 400-600 piece system set. 

@ARC2149Nova's ARC-170 Starfighter ($79.99, or $99.99 if it has a vulture droid.): Captain Jag, 1x clone pilot, Republic astromech, Plo Koon, 2x buildible droidikas. (If vulture droid: Commander Wolffe, 2x wolfpack trooper.)

(OPEN) 1000-1300 piece system set. 

@ArrowBricks's Republic Acclamator Star Destroyer ($169.99): Admiral Yularan, 2x clone officer (No armor). 1x jedi, 1x named clone, and 2x clone trooper. Someone tell me who.

@ARC2149Nova Battle on Mustafar ($59.99): The "High Ground", lava river, and fallen tower. Comes with Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. a small drawer behind the "high ground" allows for swapping between 3 quotes: "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!", "You were the chosen one!", and, of course, "It's over Anakin! I have the high ground!"

(OPEN) 1 quote set (700-1000 pcs)

(OPEN) 1 retail polybag set, like a small vehicle or something

(OPEN) 2 GWP style sets: a small 40-ish pc polybag and a 100-200ish pc set. Something like the Lars Kitchen or Endor diorama set.

 

A great start, only a couple opened slots. I've got some ideas to fill them if necessary, either new ones or throwing in more of Arrowbricks's bad batch sets. Current setup is 7 prequel era, 1 legends, so ideally the OT/mando era would have the remaining slots.

Yeah, I tried to limit it to new prints rather than molds, although it would be cool if Kuill could get a little elf hat. (Honestly the idea of him as an elf was too funny to me to pass up, and it makes sense since he's good at making stuff!) At a push, Cobb could probably re-use an OT Boba torso and/or maybe a head print somewhere, but if we consider that last year had three new prints and two each in the preceding two years, I don't think it's too much of a stretch.

The MOC wave is sounding stacked already. Some great suggestions in there.
