Most likely, we'll see the 'figs in a magnet set; if not, I'll buy and mod the keychains.

Yeah probably, but at a much later time, but the prospect of having two new jedis is really very tempting to pass and wait for a cheaper set. I mean the T-6 jedi shuttle is not that spectacular of a ship, but a decent one at the least, the main drawing factor will be the inclusion of these two new exclusive jedis. Maybe TLG realized that two new jedis (T-6-Shaak-Saesee) is much better than only 1 new jedi in a rather expensive set (CTT-Aayla-Bane combo).

To me, the T-6 is already ugly. No sense buying it just for 2 minifigs. Of course, the 'figs will probably bring in $60+ on BL.

Harsh. It seems I'm more diplomatic by saying it's a decent-looking ship. default_laugh2.gif In my book the definition of ugly is Twilight (the flying box with wings; and the movie saga too default_tong.gif ). Without the benefit of the official pics, the T-6 will be acceptable for me, though the size will again be a major issue - I'm pretty sure it will be in the smaller-than-what-it-shoul-be size (like the Republic Attack Shuttle). Well, I'm really hoping the Shaak/Saesee rumor will be true, if only one of them is included then I might have to pass up.

Correction:

The T-6 is ugly.

Ahsoka is uglier.

The Twilight is ugliest.

Anything uglier than that is the Millenium Falcon, otherwise known as beautiful. :laugh:

Besides, remember the Theta-class Shuttle in Ep.3? Now look at the LEGO set. 'Nuf said.

Clone Trooper Battle Pack containing four specialised Clone Troopers.

I just noticed now, if this Clone Trooper BP rumor is true then there's a possibility that there won't be two regular clone troopers in the BP but two specialized troopers? Two clone heavy gunners with Z-6 rotary chaingun and reciprocating quad-blasters would be sweet.

I too was referring to four of the same minifig.

The Rebel Trooper Battle Pack had four of the same trooper.

But, these days it seems unlikely that there would be four of the same. Still, since there are only two different types of Mandos (run-of-the-mill and the leader), then we either get the leader, or they are all the same.

I doubt in the Clone Trooper BP that we will get four figs that are not normal Clones, but you never know. Since the Mando BP will have four completely new figs, maybe the Clone Trooper one will also.

It seems strange to me that there would be two new Jedi in the shuttle, just because up to now LEGO has only ever release CW sets that refer to episodes that had already aired some time before. So, either LEGO is actually basing this set on a yet-to-air episode, or they're just taking the shuttle and throwing in some random Jedi. Either way, I hope they give Obi-Wan and Anakin new different expressions, but I know that's unlikely.

I didn't think we'll see Shaak Ti until the second half of the year and didn't expect Saesee Tinn at all. Knowing we'll be getting both in the shuttle is awesome news! :thumbup:

Good to see my prediction was correct about Aurra Sing coming, but I'm curious whether Pre Vizsla will be in the mando pack or not. I guess we won't know until the final set images show up. Also have to wonder whether the specialized clones will involve new helmet molds or just different printing and equipment.

The two new jedi sound awesome! I think that the Saesee Tinn will have the Mola Ram headgear in a different color. The bounty hunter ship sounds sweet! I can't wait to see the Embo fig :cry_happy:

Good news, thanks for sharing! JediNews has been a reliable source as far as I can remember, so I'll be looking forward to these awaited figs. :sweet:

What's all this talk about the T-6 shuttle being ugly? For a moment I thought the boxy green one was going to be the Jedi shuttle, but it is this one, right?:

T-6Shuttle-CotF.jpg

I'm glad it's this one. How can this be considered ugly? It's cool and slim IMO, and I would love to see a Lego version.

Yep, that would be the T-6 jedi shuttle. Well it really depends on individual preferences. I for one see it as a decent-looking ship, not bad yet not that spectacular also - maybe because of the lack of details and bland color scheme. And as I've said before, the size will again be an issue like previous big SW ships, I'm pretty sure it will be smaller than what it should be. But despite that the mere fact that it will have Shaak and Saesee (if the rumors are true) is reason enough for fans to buy it. I definitely would. default_satisfied.gif

Shaak Ti and Saesee Tiin! :wub:

Wow I thought I probably wasnt going to get that set but now I dont think I can resist!

Now what I dont get is why do they say, "containing bricks to build a battle droid carrier.."? Is it going to be like the podracer bucket where you can build one or two but not all three? Im not sure cause they worded it quite weirdly compared to the others.

I say boo on the figs in the bounty hunter ship. Embo is good, Aurra is ok, assasin droid is horrid. Embo and Aurra have yet to cross paths! Most importantly: what about Sugi, Seripas, and weequay pirates? I'd trade Aurra and the droid for Sugi alone anyday. This could be based off season 3, in which case I'm dissapointed.

I agree and disagree at the same time.

I agree that the Aurra-Embo combo is a bit weird, a Sugi-Embo combo would have made sense considering they were 'gangmates' in the episode Bounty Hunters.

But I have to disagree, I'll take Aurra over Sugi anyday. I'd say Aurra is more popular, more badass bounty hunter, has more screentime, and has more character/personality than Sugi.

And you can't get all the Bounty Hunters right away, we're lucky if we'll have Embo, there have been already three Weequay Pirates, so asking for Sugi and Seripas MFs this early is asking a bit too much. I'm not saying it's never gonna happen, but maybe at a later time.

Oh, that's brilliant! :classic:

I was right about the V-wing. Yay. I hope it includes a full astromech.

The clone battlepack apparently contains four specialised troopers. Does that mean they're all different?

The Bounty Hunter Gunship and the T-6 are suddenly very good sets to me. I don't own any of the minifigs listed (not even Obi-Wan or Anakin).

Finally, the Naboo set has left us none the wiser. It seems that Klaus-Dieter has indeed told the truth about these sets.

Quick edit: I've just noticed that on the site they're listed as rumours. My joy is diminishing...

Ooo! Nice rumours! :thumbup:

Saesee's head will most likely be a whole new mold like Fitso's was.

The only bads thing about this whole line is the denial of Sugi in the gunship. Why does TLG love Assassin Droids?! :cry_sad:

Answer: It's cheaper :hmpf_bad:

Has anyone noticed how it's almost like they're rushing to get the good minifigs out. Perhaps they know something about Series 3 of the Clone Wars, maybe a character so awesome it would overshadow all of these other characters.

The T6 Shuttle - if Saesee Tiin is released, I'd say we get Agen Kolar in 2012, to make a CW Chancellor's Arrest. We had Mace Windu in 2009, Kit Fisto in 2010 and (allegedly) Saesee in 2011, leaving Agen Kolar. Who would be awesome!

And I need a pilot battle droid, so I'll definitely be getting the Battle of Naboo set.

Aurra Sing with the BHS? Really? That's great! Although I too would have preferred Sugi or Seripas over the stupid assassin droid, but oh well. And while Shaak Ti already makes the T6 a must-buy for me, it would be even better if it does come with Saesee Tin as well. :thumbup:

I'm really excited about this wave now! I just wonder whether the V-wing comes with the kind of pilot from the TIE Defender or Palpy's Shuttle.

Glad to see I was right about the Halo having Embo and Aurra Sing (even if it was because my information was wrong :P)

Definitely makes that set a must buy!

Still not much a fan of the Jedi shuttle, but I'm very happy to see we're getting a Shaak-ti, who is easily my favourite Jedi. I'll likely wait and hope she's released in a magnet set though.

It'll be a bit of both, just look at the picture I posted earlier in the thread that everyone seems to have forgotten about. :tongue:

Probably not. The V-wing used a spherical Q7-series astromech, not the traditional R2-shape.

The Rebel Trooper Battle Pack had four of the same trooper.

Oh yeah, forgot about that.

Nope. We've almost completed the Council, now. (but don't count on getting a Thisspiasian default_laugh_new.gif )

I want a Coleman Trebor- he was my fav Jedi in AotC, but he was only in about three sceanes.

EDIT: Ungh... the Halo comes with Sing... Now I'll HAVE to get it...
