I noticed in a couple of shots of the premiere, that’s already actually smears of brighter blue paint on TBB Shuttle’s texture. Even brighter than lego’s sand blue. I’ll try and get a screenshot if I can. I’m gonna need a couple of those mortar troopers.

Those clone trooper wall poster stickers on the inside are gonna be very useful for MOC makers. This is a day 1 buy for me, holy moly are those figures wonderful. Them giving Wrecker gear to make him look heftier is especially great. Plus it gives him printed shoulder pads!!

Looks fun to me. I’ll def be buying it... what on earth is another BARC doing in there though? It looks even more out of scale next to a more accurately sized shuttle!

Per landino’s story, current Bad Batch leak is missing some info.

Wow. Whole lotta negativity about this set. Sounds totally awesome to me. That many figs, with a lot of visual diversity especially with Crosshair in his Imp gear? Plus a speeder and a Gonk? Arm printing for Echo, new helmet for Tech? I’ll wait to give up on this set for it being sand blue until I’ve seen it.

This is correct, a gunmetal grey clone helmet did leak as a test mold for Hunter long before the set was announced. Some people theorized that it was actually an unprinted Gree helmet, but this is untrue, as his is silver plastic. I’m gonna hold out faith that they’ll have helmets. If they don’t, I’ll be VERY unhappy.

As I conjectured in a previous comment on this thread— the Vader helmet looks *MUCH* better in-person, as can be seen in the Brickset review. Lego’s official photos are astonishingly bad. It looks way better in their photos, to the point that I actually kind of want it.

So this upcoming R2D2 won’t be a rerelease! Looks nice, I’m excited to see the rest.

Thought the exact same thing here. Looks like a great way to bring the price of the base area of the ship down.

That is a marked improvement. Outside of that fairly large error, I’m gonna play devil’s advocate here and say that I think Vader’s helmet will look better in person. It’s hard to light these all-black sets in a way that doesn’t betray their three-dimensionality. I do think the ‘cheekbones’ don’t look nearly angular enough... but, once again, I think this might be a symptom of the serious lighting challenge that set poses.

Per Landino’s insta story, when asked if he thought we’d be seeing single fig poly bag movie tie ins (IE Shoretrooper, DJ) ever again in the future: ”No..... I have a feeling the are OTHER ways we will see single mini figures releasing...” HMMMMMMMM

Landino’s story was talking about how LSW 2021-2022 are gonna be really great. So does that indicate leakers are starting to see 2022 info already? Because that’s pretty crazy actually. And, if it’s as good as he says... hype

Marvel Carnage helmet looks very, very nice... hoping that the new Star Wars helmets look that nice (And that we get some picture soon)

If the Andor series brings about a U-Wing remake, I’ll be very, very happy. I love that ship, and unfortunately only really got back into collecting after Rogue One’s wave was through :( looking back on that wave, I personally think it’s a better lineup than the worshipped 2013 line. Also sad I missed the TIE Striker. And Krennic’s shuttle. And the hover tank... I’m not even that hyped about the Andor series but the potential for remake sets of that wave has me excited... and my wallet scared.

Big agree. I still feel so bad for her
