Stealing of info?

Do these people know what leaking is?

They might as well shut down the whole subreddit. Leakers share confidential information that is literally what it means.

That part definitely could've been worded better. The issue seems to be that they're taking the news of others without giving credit and trying to pass it off as their own, creating the misconception that they are the ones with the inside sources when the reality is they don't know anything more about whats going on than we do.

Si is set 76367 a jabba’s throne room yes or no? I don’t really see them doing a play set specially after last years boba’s palace makes no sense having 2 of the same set in one year

Im genuinely starting to get annoyed from all this people trying to pass their fake leaks as true leaks it’s annoying, When Lehohio did it it was funny (tbh the only funny thing he has done in his entire carrier) but now is just annoying it’s repeating the same joke over and over and over specially for people who want to know real information on this wave which is by default not the worst but the queerest, just think about it, we know next to nothing about any set that is not the mandalorian related we have 2 sets we know nothing about that we should already know what they are: 75354 75357 which is made worse by all those fake leakers scamming around

 

 

pardon me for my little rant I just need to get it out of my system

No, Jabba’s Throne Room is going to be an 18+ diorama and is either cancelled or delayed, going by what the more prominent leakers are saying. It’s not happening this year.

As for the two unknown September sets - it’s interesting that the two Ahsoka sets have tags to confirm they’re from the show but these don’t have any such affiliation. Skeleton Crew could be possible, however given that Ahsoka will most likely air later in the year (hence the sets releasing in September), it’s looking increasingly likely that Skeleton Crew will air next year instead.

I’m hoping for these two to be a Gunship and Stinger Mantis personally, however I think @FoggyFate teased that there was a large non-D2C set coming that was already guessed by someone in this thread, an Original Trilogy capital ship I think? It was around the time the summer set list leaked out last month quite a few pages back, if anyone remembers. So one of the September sets may be that.

I think that 100$ fang fighter vs tie interceptor won't be that good, most likely a repeat of that old a wing vs darth vader tie set, Bo is definitely not returning for that set, lego has tendencies to keep a few figures exclusive to specific sets, y'all are acting like there aren't 5 episodes left where we would see the empire vs more mandos, my guess is that we get a 40$ x wing sized fang fighter and 30$ tie fighter sized tie interceptor with: Din, the random mando, a tie pilot and

gideon since he is said to return this season

Was the teased big non D2C said to be an OT set? Couldn’t it be the gunship I guessed back then? cause I’m still the biggest advocate that set is coming out this year

Oh really? Huh so then the Jabba's Palace really will be a large set? That's....interesting to say the least. I'm down. 

I hope Bo makes an appearance in the Fang Fighter vs TIE set too, I'd pay more to get two spaceships than one spider droid thing. April can't come soon enough, I'm so curious to see what the sets coming out in summer/early fall look like.

How do you draw that Jabba's Palace will be the large set from that information

That UCS Death Star on Instagram looks boring enough to be legit.

It's fake, though some serious effort was put into it. I was fooled at first too.

[EvanHnuel]

The only way 75357 could be Jabba's Throne Room is if the set was completely redesigned and is no longer part of the diorama series. There are pros to this for sure as we would likely see more figs and hopefully the addition of the mind-boggling previously rumored absence of Salacious B. Crumb. 

However, I just don't think this is the case. It would not make sense for Lego to have this and Boba's Throne Room on shelves at the same time and at two high price points. If Jabba's TR was to become a nearly 1400 piece playset, it would probably have to run in the neighborhood of $150. Idk about this move if I'm Lego. 

LifeBricks, obviously take this however you want and with a grain of salt, is suggesting at timestamp 11:51 that there is a leaked image of the original 600-700 piece Throne Room meaning the set went through some phases of production. From this, if true, we can conclude the set is more likely delayed, much like how Temple of Doom is turning out to be, rather than cancelled. 

I am on copium life support in regards to this set as many are, too. Just know that you are not alone lmao.

Dont get all the ppl upset about ToD being cancelled same as why I wouldn't care about JP being cancelled. It means there's something else coming which could be cooler.

I'm not trying to get people riled up. It was my understanding that there is word the ToD has been pushed back to August due to improvements being needed to strengthen the structural integrity of the build. 

I'll leave it at that though, this is a Star Wars thread. lol

I remember someone suggested it could be the Home One, which would fit the bill pretty well. A lot of the characters that could be included in it haven't shown up in a while, and the last version (which wasn't even a ship) released more than 10 years ago.

[MBricks]

Was there ever any ever evidence of a gunship in 2023? I highly doubt they will release a mini fig scale gunship while the UCS one is still on shelves.

[BrickBob Studpants]

According to Promobricks, the Fangfighter vs Interceptor set will be revealed on April 25th, so the Tuesday after the season finale. Good, that means it’s gonna be accurate after all  Just a bit risky, because that means the set is only getting revealed one week ahead of its release.

[THELEGOBATMAN]

It's definitely gonna leak. No way they'll keep it from leaking.

That would be seriously impressive, because it's only a 5-day gap.

[BrickBob Studpants]

• Spoiler-free sets: Aug 1st
• Potentially spoilerific set: May 1st

Makes sense  

Then again, the spoiler character being included is just speculation on Promobricks’ part. Personally, I don’t think they show up in a set before 2024

Promobricks is usually on the ball with their predictions to be fair, I doubt they’d bring up the inclusion of spoilery characters if they weren’t confident about them, especially if this set will be officially revealed that close to May.

I must say, this has significantly raised my excitement for the set. I’m assuming the spoiler characters could be

Moff Gideon in his decked out armour plus some of his specialised Stormtroopers.

that argument doesn't really hold up seeing that the razor crest, millenium falcon, and at-at are all on shelves with ucs and playsets available. Gunship is possible, but i think its going to be an OT set. 

[Goofster]

I honestly don't believe gunship rumors and any clone based vehicule rumor, every year we got these gunship rumors, i would want a plo's bros gunship, but phase 2.

Edited March 17, 2023 by Goofster

[Agent Kallus]

I don't think there is a gunship rumour anyway. It's wanted but no sources have said one is coming this year.

[Mandalorianknight]

No sources, not even semi-reliable ones have so much as HINTED at a gunship, guys. One is probably gonna show up eventually, but there's no reason to believe it's this year.

[BrickBob Studpants]

There’s this one guy I’ve seen on Reddit that keeps claiming that 75354 is a Gunship, citing his job as a source. Not completely implausible per se, but then he had to post a minifig list. This of course completely destroyed the little credibility there was to begin with

Wanting something to be true doesn’t make it any more likely.

This. Agreed fully.

Still convinced those mystery sets are either an OT set, or Skeleton Crew set. Maybe it's a hammerhead corvette. Idk. That'd be cool.

[omegabadbatch]

Boba in his mech could be from OT?

My point is basically that price of the UCS gunship is a lot closer to the price of a minifig scale version than any of the rest of these.
