    We already know 75255 is coming in October

    Interesting rumour coming from a credible source, I hope it turns out to be true. If I recall correctly we knew about BB-8 and the Porg a lot earlier than usual when compared to the other sets but I don’t think it was this early in the year.

    I probably worded my previous comment a bit poorly - what I meant was, if the rumour is the truth, then that suggests 75255 is one of the two October wave sets previously confirmed to be not related to Episode IX. Apologies.

    What’s this about a Yoda bust? Is there confirmation of that? Saw something about it on IG. If it’s real, I suppose it would go alongside the buildable BB-8 and Porg

    The post suggests it is set number 75255. The poster is the same one who revealed Santa Porg and Jedi Exile Luke for the advent calendar, and the account has a previous history of leaking accurately. If it is true, could it be one of the two October wave sets that were declared to be not related to Episode IX?

    These are the ones I really like! Especially that dropship set wow what a good set that would be:wub:

    Would change a few figures around or reduce some (because it's Lego after all) but great job! I'll create my ideas when I have time. Get yourself working at Lego buddy 

     

    Thanks for the positive feedback. Enjoyed reading some of your ideas too.

    Would love to see your prequel trilogy set lists if you have the time :wink: so hope Lego seriously go back and finish off the films! 

    Find your ideas intriguing!

     

    Thank you. Appreciate it. Here are a few prequels/TCW set ideas. I am a lot more interested in the separatist and republic conflict than some of the Jedi/political aspects.

    Are these your ideas or did you just leak some sets? Cause it looks a lot more like leak.

    As above, just a wish list. I like to try and assign set numbers to try and fit them into potential allocations. :wink:

    Perhaps the absence of a Last Jedi Leia minifigure may have something to do with this potentially being the Raddus. I seem to recall a rumour from last which suggested she was coming in a lifeboat, which SvL confirmed, although that appears to have been put on hold. I suppose it could be argued that, while the codenames in some cases haven't meant much (ie the Solo set codenames), the ship does have the physical outline of a shark. While I am no expert on building techniques, I reckon the Raddus' shape would be easier to recreate in LEGO than the Home One for example, which has less angles which could be manipulated through traditional building techniques. Perhaps an iteration of the Raddus would be a lot like the Malevolence from 2012 in terms of building techniques. The described box dimensions and price point arguably suggest some sort of compatibility with a vehicle the size of the First Order Star Destroyer, and after all, fans have been wishing for a proper attempt Mon Calamari cruiser for a number of years.

    I would have prefered a cloth kama instead of printing. Very disapointing. Apart from that, it looks good. So this snowtrooper will come in the upcoming T47 ?

    Not yet known. Chances are, if 75259 is to be true to its roots with 7130, it will come with two pilots and a Hoth rebel trooper, and then Lando is the rumoured anniversary figure. I recall SVL mentioned a while ago that 75241 would come with three rebels and a snowtrooper, so that is one accounted for there. More than likely that one will also feature in 75239.

    I hope this announced "big reveal" in about 2 hours will be the reveal of the 20th Anniversary sets.:excited:

    I think it makes sense. I seem to recall that the August 2018 wave were revealed around April/May time, and a good number of figures had leaked by that point, so perhaps they are revealing a few months in advance here as well given the volume of leaks that have been occurring recently.

    On a separate note, if we know Force Friday is taking place the first week of October this year, and on the basis that it is therefore logical to assume that this will be when the first phase of Episode IX sets are released, do we have any knowledge yet if we are expecting a 'summer wave' at some point between the upcoming April wave, May 4th and Force Friday in October?

    Regarding the re re release of the droid gunship and AT-AP, I missed out on the droid gunship the first time so Ill have a chance to pickup 6 or so. But I wait quite a while until the new ones go on sale. That could also be a reason why no one is really picking them up right off the gate. some of you seem to forget 5 years is actually a long enough time to cycle through some of the designs for the next gen of children. 

    I see the same attitude with Hasbro collectors, particularly with the Black Series and Vintage Collection lines.

    For the Endor playset, I hope we get an Endor Luke, we haven't got one in twenty years. A cross between the Speeder Bike set and Ewok Attack would be sweet. 

    I was personally expecting a modern iteration of each. Particularly given the piece counts of the five 20th Anniversary sets, and the long overdue Endor Luke and Biker Scout helmet mould update, without wishing to appear purely speculative, I wouldn't be at all surprised if one of those sets was something of a re-release of 7128 from 1999.
