manmythlegand Posted February 16, 2009 Have you all seen this yet? A new secret set shown at the Toy Fair!http://www.flickr.com/photos/brickjournal/...335230/sizes/l/ I haven't seen anyone post this link here in the last couple pages. If this is confidential and I'm not allowed to post it I'm really sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWMAN Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) The only two sets I will be buying will be the Shield Generator and the AT-OT. Those two will make great displays. I am really pleased that the AT-OT will be released in March. I am glad Lego kept this secret until right before there are ready to release it. Everything else still looks prelim except for the AT-OT. Edit: Interesting that that picture shows March 30th. The press release said March 3rd. Might be a different release date for outside the USA.

Oswald the Rabbit Posted February 16, 2009 ^Is that when the rest come out too. I hope that means we will get a Wampa soon to go with the new Tauntaun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Algernon Posted February 16, 2009 Well, this is quite a dilemma. The AT-OT is an amazing set, but $250 is way more than I usually spend on LEGO for a single set. I'll have to think this over... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corvus Posted February 16, 2009 Yeah, that's a lot for TLC. It has 1700 pieces, right? Mideval Market has almost that many pieces for $100! Come on, TLC, cut that price in half! Now that I take a look at the back of the AT-OT box, it looks like the LAAT has interchangable stickers- the option to put on a sticker with a clone arm ripping off a droid's head! I swear I've seen it somewhere before, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm definitely going to get Echo Base, Separatist's Shuttle, and probably Endor Battle. I dunno about the others. Edited February 16, 2009 by ILikePi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWMAN Posted February 16, 2009 Well, this is quite a dilemma. The AT-OT is an amazing set, but $250 is way more than I usually spend on LEGO for a single set. I'll have to think this over... While the price tag is large, luckily I have cash to spare on this set and then later the Endor set. I think that the price is acceptable due to the fact that you get two ships, 6 clones with room for more, plus the fact that it is compatible with the AT-TE all justify the price.

JCC1004 Posted February 16, 2009 It's awsome that its compatible w/ the AT-TE! I might get this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For $250 there should be special minifigures, and the thing holds 16, for $250 it should come with 16 minifigures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ILikePi Posted February 16, 2009 For $250 there should be special minifigures, and the thing holds 16, for $250 it should come with 16 minifigures. Don't you mean 18? There's also two clone pilots, you know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruin Posted February 16, 2009 I just joined up right now to share my ideas on the new sets and consider actually being involved in the community here. I've been on this site frequently following the updates and, as of today I've reached the peak of my excitement. I actually considered putting aside this rather 'hard on wallet' hobby to pursue other hobbies but I guess this new set, The AT-OT and Dropship have changed my mind. I'll order myself one on March 3rd the release date just to ensure I have it. Pretty amazing, thought it was an MOC at first look on the news page and almost dropped dead when I realized it was an actual set. Great Job lego =] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derek Posted February 16, 2009 Does anyone else think that Leia (maybe Han too) need a new head design? The Leia one is the same as it was 10 years ago. It just seems too simple and doesn't seem to fit in with the others... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ILikePi Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) I don't really mind it, as I've never had a Han or Leia minifigure so far. And look, the Hoth rebels in the Echo Base set just have normal smiley faces. http://www.flickr.com/photos/no_onions/328...57613819221413/ Edited February 16, 2009 by ILikePi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricklanta Posted February 16, 2009 For $250 there should be special minifigures, and the thing holds 16, for $250 it should come with 16 minifigures. They should add more figs in and a jedi. I mean we are paying $250 . I probably won't get it, i'll just wait until they bring the price down a bit in a year or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oswald the Rabbit Posted February 16, 2009 So now we have the the Imperial higher ups and the Rebellion higher ups. I love that they are filling in the gaps of all the missing Star Wars characters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jifel Posted February 16, 2009 Although I intend on buying this, has anyone seen either of the vehicles in the CW yet? If so, what episodes. jifel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin2224 Posted February 16, 2009 The LAAT/c is seen in the begining of the Battle of Teth in the Clone Wars Movie, but other that that they have not been shown. Upon farther examination (looking for flaws I found in the AT-OT) I think that it is way to thin, and I dont like the large thing that occupies the middle. But with some easy modding, and a few more seats, I could make it minifig scale with all 32 seats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am OK with that, but I am glad that they did not include just plain faces with Endor. I love the new helmets they have. A lot more realistic. It seems that Lego is making more detailed head gear these days, like Leia's hair and the Endor Commando's helmets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Brickz Posted February 16, 2009 nice cant wait to got to the toyfare tomorrow after work. ill be able to get better pics of the new models. i havnt seem any pics of the MF and private tank? weren't they at the toyfare? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commander Flash Posted February 16, 2009 Some nice sets, but I won't be able to afford all of them. At-Ot is top priority as on now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that the price is acceptable due to the fact that you get two ships, 6 clones with room for more, plus the fact that it is compatible with the AT-TE all justify the price. If you ask me, 6 clones is a pretty SMALL number. The Castle Chess Set came with WAY more minifigs and it was only $200... the minifigs were way different, too, and some of them were unique to that set. It's a rip-off, through and through. But it might yet be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
