    This and nothing else is a Republic Frigate. Unlike the Pelta (which is called Medical Frigate) it has many appearances in TCW (13 episodes and the movie) and is a rather beautiful ship. So if this list is real, this is what we'll get. I'm hoping for a Yularen minifig, too, as his role in TCW is also not that small. (And we could always get new Jedi in big sets - this has often enough been the case in the past. Agen Kolar, Eeth Koth and Luminara Unduli (without stupid lightsaber) are due imo.)

    Hmm Well it could be however TLG is a bit erratic about correct naming of sets, so what set it is could still be wide open.

    Thank you very much for this link to the set list, Christian, and for translating it, Mr Man! :classic:

    Endor BP sounds great! :thumbup:

    I bet it'll be very similar to the Echo Base set:

    -Endor Luke

    -Ewok

    -Ewok or Endor Rebel

    -Scouttrooper

    -Scouttrooper or Stormtrooper

    -Scouttrooper's bike

    -trap or catapult

    -some scenery (tree and scrubs)

    But what is a Rebel Frigate? Is it from the CW, PT or OT?

    Btw: This year's non-exclusive summer sets were in special stores (e. g. Kaufhof) already available in June. So this might be the case next year, too.

    Hmm Well my guess is that the 'Republic frigate is a clone wars style Pelta-class frigate (it wont be a OT set because it is a republic set, it could be a Phantom Menace Consular-class, but my moneys on the former.

    I think it will be a large set possibly, like the 10198 Tantive IV it could have 5 figs (Clone officer, clone medic, clone trooper x2, and an astromech droid, or a medical droid) and be in the £100 range.

    7913 Clone Trooper Battle Pack

    7914 Mandalorian Battle Pack

    7915 Imperial V-Wing Starfighter

    7929 The Battle of Naboo

    7930 Bounty Hunter Gunship

    7931 T-6 Jedi Shuttle

    7956 The Battle of Endor Pack

    7957 The Battle of Geonosis Pack

    7959 Geonosian Starfighter

    7961 Sith infiltrator

    7962 Anakin's and Sebulba’s Podracers

    7964 Republic Frigate

    Hmm having a look at this list I would only buy a few of these as I'm not a big fan of silly sets such as podracers.

    The Sith infiltrator, Republic Frigate, The Battle of Naboo, The Battle of Endor, and The Battle of Geonosis Packs are on my list if they turn out to be true.

    If these sets do turn out to be true than it looks to be one of the better years (especially if the battle of Endor, and Geonosis packs are about the same size, and price as the battle of Naboo set).

    I though the new AT-ST and AT-RT releases changed a lot from the previous renditions. Which goes back to why LEGO re-hashes some vehicles and not others (like the X-wing).

    EDIT: Mr Man what's with the sig quote involving my name? :tongue:

    The Quotes from the Discworld series book Hogfather the best book in the world. :laugh:

    Back on to the topic I will get the new Mace SF set but will sell the SF and just keep the staps and speeder with the droids. I have done that with all my SF except 7143, because I really like that one.

    Hmm

    As I already pointed out earlier I don't like the new BARC at all, however having thought a bit more about it I think that it harks back a bit to my favorite era of Lego, i.e. 1999-2003 with the brilliant but not particularly accurate sips like the 7151 Sith Infiltrator. I think I am becoming a bit spoiled and expecting TLC to make new molds and make everything more accurate. :classic:

    I did the same thing but with the Clone Bp. :laugh: Here are some pictures.

    Here's the brickshelf gallery. When public.

    Hmmm

    That set just looks worse and worse every time I see it, seeing it like that just re-enforces my not wanting of it (bad grammar) every Lego version of the BARC is well rubbish IMHO :) also the figs for that set are not very good except for the ARF trooper which I will get from e-bay or somwhere just for the helmet.

    Hmm

    I really hope this is just another rummer, as I am getting quite bored of all these Jedi starfighters (i.e. 7143, 7669, 7751, 7256, 7283, 7661, and 10215, and now another possible one). the rest of the wave looks alright so far, especially liking the battle of Naboo set.

    On another note not knowing where to put this I have tried to make the mandalorian speeder from the prelim pics.

    4.jpg and 5.jpg

    I don't have any Bobas or Jangos to go in it so a clone will have to do.

    Hi I have being watching this site for a long time but have only just decided to join.

    Here is my Battle pack alternative of 8014

    the TC2 speeder (Troop carrying speeder and my second attempt).
