A customer today said she'd seen (as in images) a leak of a set with Ewoks and Scout Troopers - I guess that's the one on the list, but I can't find anything anywhere. Anyone got any more information about that?
-
Asked my manager about this and she confirmed all of these are coming out in the first winter release. You also get a box of 500 clone troopers when you spend over £35 / $50.

I definitely am, the cockpit is a real let down.

Thank you!!! Nothing as fancy as a tilt shift, just a regular ol 50mm :)

I really like your mod :) could you give me a list of the parts I need for moving the turrets together? Would be awesome, thanks!
I've never made a parts list but I've put together an LDD file of how I made it. Hope that will help you if you take it apart digitally!
Thank you! :)

This is so nice!! The only thing bugging me is that minifigures won’t be able to sit on those seats in the war room ?

Having seen them in action in the movie, I was wondering if you have shortened the "ski" part which appears a bit too long in my opinion. Pictures of your updated version are also welcome
Looking back it really was too long, huh! It didn’t stay built but I may put together a similar version, because I really loved that scene and the official one just looks way too big ? I’ll post on here if I do make one!

On 13/11/2017 at 10:59 AM, Yorel said:The license, or more particularly Hasbro's license for Star Wars Action Figures, prevents Lego releasing sets that are purely minifigs or from releasing Star Wars CMFs (Outside of promotions). That's how battlepacks actually came about, they can be made/released/sold because they come with a build, so that's the way around it.
That's kinda what I'm talking about. The City People Packs all come with little builds. Sure for a Star Wars version you might have to sure it up a bit. Maby instead of a couple of little things that are 3-10 bricks each, it could be something slightly larger, like a speeder or a speeder bike or both or something. Basically a battlepack, but 2-3 times the size, in terms of volume/figures.
That said, it is just a kinda fantastical wish that will probably never come true. But I can dream...
Thanks for clarifying! It would be everyone’s dream, I think ! ?

Star Wars People Packs. Like the 'Fun in the Park' and 'Fun at the Beach' City sets they did. Except Star Wars.
And I'm not talking about doing packs with characters like Luke, Obi-Wan or Rey. I mean generic people that would exist in the Star Wars universe. And not just humans, but aliens too.
I’m pretty sure I read (on Ideas somewhere?) the license actually prevents them from making people packs because it covers building toys and not figures.

Yeah ! It's just so fitting for the universe. If I could paint well I'd be onto that so fast!

My store has it displayed nearly vertically but the stand is custom made and behind a perspex screen. They recommended shopfittings.co.uk but I don't think that would have anything particularly specific... I'm sure someone will start producing them for consumers soon enough.
-
This is incredible!! Really stays true to the aesthetics of the original films, and there's such wonderful use of colour and detailing :) That last shot surprised me with how sleek it is, which also feels very Star Wars. I can just picture a McQuarrie painting of this!

What's the age range for this site again ?

I've added a couple more photos for you ! I really recommend it. It channels all my favourite parts of Star Wars design.

This was very enjoyable to watch ! I love the door technique so much ?

Hi !
Here's a few mods I've made to 75188 Resistance Bomber in the last few days.
I first changed the engines to blue (I swear it seems like blue and orange are ALWAYS reversed on Star Wars vehicles!)
I'm not a big fan of stud shooters in most contexts, so I switched the rear cannons out for display ones.
I also wanted them to rotate together, which took some figuring out. I couldn't find a way to use friction pins to hold both cannons so I put another axle in with a little gear system like in Slave 1. I went through a few different iterations but this was the most compact solution I could find.
I transferred the stickers in the bubble canopies to clear 2x2 slopes, and switched the brackets and tiles for a little more visibility.
Shorter wings to be a little more in proportion.
The interior was already great, but I tiled over the floor and added a weapons rack.
I added a small ladder up to the gunner position and added in some more details and stickered controls by the gunner's hands. You can't really see them in this picture, though.
The exterior of the turret is mostly the same but it was a great design to start with!
For the cockpit I used a bunch of stickered elements from 75105 (getting slowly disassembled in preparation for the big one!) Snap is piloting for the moment, until we find out what the whole crew will be (probably not a bunch of X-wing pilots !)
The rest of the changes are just minor cosmetics all over the hull, but I've already made this too long so here's just two more pictures. I didn't capture everything, of course !
This is a really great set! It looks beautiful and is so much fun. As an AFOL I tend to just display things but it's impossible not to fly this around the room !
Thank you :^)

It's coming early next year / December this year

My store just said they'll be getting plenty of stock between the VIP release and the wide release. I think they've gauged interest fairly well

I know that it's possible to Order it from The 14th of September. If i'll Order it When do i GEt it? Do I have ti wait until 1 october.
Are there Any stores where Young von buy The falcon on 14th september pe is oh just The one in london?
Would be Great if someone Knows an answer.
If you order it online then you'll get it before the 1st of october, depends on the shipping time! It doesn't seem like anyone's sure whether or not every store will have it on the 14th but if you live near the Cologne store it will be worth checking in on that day :)

She definitely meant an actual image but maybe it was some fake somewhere. This list^ is the only thing I've been able to find, so I'm pretty skeptical too.
