Until reliable accounts repost or confirm it, I'm treating that fives leak as fake. something about it just seems water decaled, as does the 6x4 tile with the 25th logo. It's just the leaked logo exactly without fives's name or anything... I don't believe it. They usually put the character names on there, but even if they don't, the way this looks in the "leak" just feels off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minishark2000 Posted January 13 (edited) Ok I saw another photo of the fig without the giant watermarks, it's up on the subreddit. I think it's legit, has the anniversary plate too. The fig is beautiful, probably the best clone ever aside from the 2014 phase 2 shiny and phase 2 shocks Edit: and falcon just posted the pic to his insta, confirming it's legit Edited January 13 by Minishark2000 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legofan2001 Posted January 13 Darth Malek’s head doesn’t look so good 😬 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mandalorianknight Posted January 13 Welp, looks like I was wrong, I guess. The anniversary plate is weird, but the figure itself is pretty solid. The Pauldron's an interesting shape- I guarantee you they'll be advertising it as if it folds down over the torso on the sides- but with the antenna and backpack, should be a pretty good figure. I'm still not 100% sold on it's legitimacy to be honest, but falconfan posting it would seem to confirm it's real. The Malak head is a little disappointing-he should have had a molded element for the jaw- but overall pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Figure looks nice enough, though the pauldron is really iffy. Still not quite sure where my thoughts lie with the summer wave lineup. Delightfully wacky at the least. I’m hoping the Battle on Peridea is some sort of facade of the witches’ fortress entrance with a balcony and opening doors? Makes the most sense given the piece count. Also @FoggyFate any chance you could confirm whether the unconfirmed sets left are just from the Acolyte? Edited January 13 by Kaijumeister Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legofan2001 Posted January 13 (edited) So if the Buildable creature has multiple eyes that eliminates most so is it a Nexu? Edited January 13 by Legofan2001 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like they're pretty good about giving backpack troopers backpacks. Probably helps that it's normally unprinted non-figure parts. 12 minutes ago, Legofan2001 said: So if the Buildable creature has multiple eyes that eliminates most so is it a Nexu or Tatooine Sand Ape from Book of Boba? Where are people revealing this stuff? Assuming multiple eyes means more than two (right? Literally speaking, multiple eyes pretty much only rules out the diagona), I'm really not sure who it could be- most of the major SW creatures (wampa, rancor, Krayt Dragon (both), etc have two eyes. It seems weird to do only one arena beast, and just "that's a weird choice" weird, not absolutely-guns-blazing weird like some of the other sets this wave, so my guess is either they're going guns blazing and it's something much more obscure, or there's some obvious answer we're all missing. 1 hour ago, Duke27 said: The pauldron is plastic?

How about one of the Bigger Fish from TPM? It would fit with the anniversary, and with lego making absolutely absurd sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaximillianRebo Posted January 13 Honestly I'm not surprised the Sail Barge details sound the way they do. Disappointed yes, but not surprised. If Lego goes the large UCS route, which the rumoured price point seems to suggest, the interior is probably mostly a technic frame to support the angles of the hull, especially if it's a large sized model. And then the figs seem to be following the UCS playbook too. Like just about everybody, I'd love the MBS treatment, but if this isn't the case it makes it an easier pass. I'll still probably get the Skiff though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn’t predict white but should be very nice with the red. 9 hours ago, Mandalorianknight said: Definitely possible. By the way, did you notice the mods are giving us more titles/icons? You, me, and @NoOneOfImportance have little death stars under our names now, and Foggyfate is now "reliable Bothan #3" I wonder what the death star icon means. This set is so close to being On the other hand, is it possible this is a diorama? Maybe we are being recruited with our boy Kino Loy. I think it will be a diorama.

It's been too long since we used tags and flags regularly so I assigned some. The Death Star icon is for those who've been active with the Star Wars forum and helping to post content in the News thread. 8 hours ago, Legofan2001 said: Fives just leaked and outside the waist cape I would say he’s the greatest clone trooper EVER made! The great news about the waist cape is you can just buy a 2012-2013 waist cape and you’re done. It's hard to believe this figure is real. But seems like it's confirmed. The time and look of it make me think it's fake. But I'd be happy to be wrong. I like that shoulder piece. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a separate thought, maybe Lego have their hands tied after cancelling the rumoured Jabba’s throne room. Could it have been the plan to include Jabba there and have the diorama on shelves in time for when the Sail Barge and Sarlacc pit this year are released?

Llewop Posted January 13 I don’t think the Death Star is a conference room I think this has come around from Chinese whispers from someone wishing and speculating. could the buildabke creature be a rancor? It’d fit in with the barge being out and would make the most sense as a buildable creature set Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it's a that simply because it's not an 18+ set, and a conference room would be the most boring set possible for kids. What play functions would it even have?
