I was quite excited when I heard the rumors about 75191, but when I saw those images with the same old hideous design from TCW, it really disappointed me. I was going to get this set but it would have to be on a huge sale and need serious modification before I could even consider buying and displaying it.

The kind of beautiful work designers such as yourself can do in such a small space is always impressive. Great job Khaled, this is a very fitting tribute.
-
That SWCO exclusive looks so cool and it would really add to my display and collection. Since I can't go to SWCO I probably will have to BL it because it is so good.
-
Oh wow...just wow...I have no words to describe how amazing that is. I have never seen a UCS TIE Defender that seemed so sturdy and looked so good I really wish you could make a gallery of it in real bricks.
-
Are you going to build this in real bricks.

I finally got (75170)! I almost though I screwed myself over because I saw it early at TRU, but realized I forgot my gift card. Then I tried my Target on Sunday, but they didn't have any winter wave sets. Then I heard about it being 20% off on the TRU site and with my gift card it only cost me $11, at least my wallet benefited from the wait!

Seriously it is just ridiculous seeing all this BS over rehash this and rehash that. Take a look at the Snowspeeders in ESB, then look at 10129 and 75144, which one looks more like the Snowspeeder in ESB? And if you really need it on r/lego there is a comparison between the two. But this moaning will continue so at least for those who have the sense to see this as an improvement (and the money ) we'll be able to own one. Anyways now that my little rant is over, I must say that TLG couldn't have executed this any better. Just looking at it the improvements are massive, they fixed pretty much every aesthetic problem like the front which I'm so glad they are hinging those two panels that connect the front one to the wings, also the cockpit which very accurately shaped, and the improcements serm to continue. I was at first having skepticism regarding this but now I will definitely be getting it plus as a bonus I can get the may the fourth promo and it will be a great birthday gift to myself.

You and me both. I really can't wait for Friday as it has still been seemingly forever so I am going to see if TRU has one of the smaller sets early although I will wait to buy the larger ones during the double points period in March.

(I don't know if someone has posted about this already, and if they have I am sorry for the duplicate post.) On the US S@H site LEGO has put up the listings for 75168, 75169, and 75170, along with 75172 and it confirms the already confirmed prices by people who have gotten the sets at TRU early. But the main point is 75168, 75169, and 75170 are all listed as Coming Soon on February 17, 2017. I don't know if this is an error, or why the Y-Wing still has a March 1 release, but the wait will hopefully be shorter in the US for some or all of the sets!

I'm really pumped for the new UCS Snowspeeder. It really confuses why people always complain at every new set TLG releases, just cause a set is a rehash doesn't make it instantly a demoniacal cash grab as most of them are major improvements. Hope we have pictures soon.

Oh wow they have been on a roll with the Buildable Figures (faceless ones at least), Death Trooper was amazing, so as Shoretrooper, and now an OT Stormtrooper commander and Scout Trooper on speeder bike, it might be as close as we ever get to a ucs one! Also it will be nice to get a 4-LOM (I think) and a new Bossk. The Quadjumper and Rathar sets seem surprisingly good. And the Vader's transformation being a huge improvement over the previous. Also the tracker seems somewhat interesting but clearer pictures will be the decider there.
-
I have nothing against Brick Ministry but I don't trust that price because he's the only person I've ever seen to confirm US pricing while no one else has.
-
Oh I will pray for this to be true if it is that much cheaper here in the US that will provide some justification for our three month wait. Please take a pic I want this to be true and confirmed so I don't have a huge letdown. Well the Anakin Podracer set wasn't real and was actually the Eclipse Fighter. But the Phantom II is actually real so unless it has another set;s DCPI code than it has more legitimacy than the Anakin Podracer tags.

I have seen far fewer of these in LEGO than there should be. This is gorgeous, great job!
