LEGO Star Wars 2015 Pictures and Rumors

Recommended Posts

AT-DP's stormie may be unique... the prelim pic showed some modifier in front of the name; could just mean it'll have different equipment (some speculate "riot stormtrooper", so a shield may appear even if not in the prelim pic--another nod to McQuarrie), or it might be an officer or some other trooper-type entirely. Or it might be a regular old stormtrooper and the extra word in front of it on the box-art was just an error... just2good will enlighten us soon enough.

@Just2Good, what does the Clone Trooper Lieutenant in the Hailfire Droid set look like?

I'm just wondering if the lieutenant will be phase 2

Doubtful, if it's meant to be an "lieutenant = blue" type of thing, since that ranking/color system kinda went out the door almost immediately after Geonosis. If it's Phase II, then whether it's a named or unnamed LT the colors & patterns are kinda up in the air.

^Oh, well I guess Robianco was right. People's lives DO depend on these photos! :tongue:

But seriously, at least tell me this: what was wrong with the Tuskens? It would be a shame to have the first redesign in over a decade be ruined.

Also, you said that the BP's include Rebel Stormies, right?: :cry_sad::damn::wall::ugh:

I watched the Rebels episode last night, and afterwards had a look at the set boxes that are still sitting waiting to be opened. As soon as I realised that there was only 1 Rebels style stormtrooper, I thought "I'll have to get a bunch more of those..." then realised ITT, and immediately thought "TLG, you sneaky bastards!" :smug: Looks like that set is as good as sold, despite being not-the-variant many fans wanted. What a sucker I am. :laugh:

Not a bad idea at all! I gotta look back and see if I have all of them.

Well, the BP includes one that is actually different from the Ghost looking back- they have blue markings on the helmet. I'm not good with LEGO Star Wars knowledge. :grin:

And, the Tuskens have moulded heads. There's only one. They looked silly in the movies, they look silly here. :tongue:

For the brief moment the Tuskens on screen, they scared me when I was younger. But looking at them now...

They're not so bad. I actually liked the first LEGO version of these guys, well done for detail on the torso and head, and I'm lucky to own them.

I know Star Wars strives for accuracy, but I actually liked these without molded heads at first. I didn't see the new versions so I hope they live up to and improve on the original.

(If anyone already talked about these figures in visual comparison I apologize, I didn't read every post of this forum.)

Haha now we still have a chance, OT stormies has those markings.. are rebel stormies have the same? If it is not the same with the "ghos stormies" it might be the new ot stormies!!!! Or.. maybe they just release a new rebel stormies that are not as ugly as those in the ghost.. dang

The Tusken has a molded head?! Shut up and take my money! Although I am very very disappointed that the ITT are rebel's stromies I might buy one because I am very desperate for new storm troopers and I don't have $130 to buy the new Star Destroyer.

The Tusken is now the figure I am most looking forward to in this wave. A molded head should not be too bad. It worked well for the Bith musicians and Greedo. The T-16 looks interesting enough to get one. Having a special molded womprat would be nice, but it would not be a dealbreaker not to have one. Besides, did they ever actually show a womprat in the films?

Sure is taking a long time to host some pictures...

Look for the 'upload' or 'insert' button, ask an adult if you get stuck.

Hey, some politeness and respect can go a long way. just2good is not obliged in any way to share these and I think we can all agree it's very nice of him sharing these at all before TLG official release. I believe you should show some appreciation and practice adult conversation while at it.

He won't post separate pics. He will post a youtube video to get more views/subscriptions on his channel. It's the main reason it's taking so slow. Quite selfish/childish/bad kind of tactic. :thumbdown:

Anyway it's good to see pics (and in that regard I'm grateful). :classic:

ever heard the saying don't look a gift horse in the mouth? I'm guessing if you have you don't practice that. Just2good is giving us a gift, take it at face value and stop complaining that your GIFT is slow in arriving! and lets not forget that he wants to provide a full set of images for each theme in one group, and as he has stated he is missing a few.

I also think he wasn't posting the images straight away because he didn't have them all and he was also cautious to post them due to the request of the person who is letting him have them.

It's September... they're being released in January. That's more than a quarter of the entire year before their release and people are still being snippy about why they haven't seen them yet.

If he'd posted them straight away to much fanfare only to bugger up things with the person letting him have them and find that the next wave he can't get any images there would be people asking questions.

If he posts them on his Youtube channel that's entirely up to him... You'll still see them before most of the population.

For a forum with an apparently adult audience there's an awful lot of toys being thrown out of prams.

True but those are the heads of those with a Tusken it is a mask though we never see the real face might be ok.

*huh* Wow, classy.

You apparently didn't read any of his other posts in this thread or other theme threads where he's been posting. Star Wars isn't going up until Thursday or Friday.

He WILL post separate pics; haven't you paid attention to the other themes' pics he's been posting this week? TLM & DC Superheroes had separate pics at the very least. He didn't post Speed Champions pics separately since someone beat him to it while he was asleep... Cuz he's also fighting a cold. The main reason it's taking so long is, as others have noted, so he doesn't spoil things for all of us by compromising his source... in addition to the cold, having a life, etc.

Besides, did they ever actually show a womprat in the films?

Nope! Just scurriers and other small fauna.
