I‘m always ambivalent regarding leaks. On the one hand I am a very curious person and want to know everything now. On the other hand, like you said, getting almost every info early means almost no suspense for the rest of the year. A good compromise would be fine.

Are we sure that the three shown figs are really included in the shuttle? The blue lightsaber, the glove on the wrong hand and an not up to date Vader fig are really odd for me.

I think the set will be just released in February.

Lego announced the Marvel Sets for February 2021 today. I guess we will see in the next days the new Star Wars Sets as well for February. Which means a better look for the new Mando-Set.

Interesting news. The set (if the rumor is true) seems ok. Beskar Mando and the Child in a cheaper set is nice. The Tusken tent could be a great addition to the bantha from the micro fighter set. But I will wait for the second half of year and see if more sets are coming with Beskar Mando, which I might like more. Having almost all the major characters outside the Razor Crest available makes it harder to justify the purchase of this more expensive Set. On the other hand, why collect Mando-Sets without the Crest ??

Very interesting. Maybe I need to buy the two sets after all :-). And I wonder how many minifigs the imperial shuttle will include.

Could be but I think Lego plans far ahead with the production which means that there won‘t be any free production capacity in the near future.

It could be that Lego has no free capacity in their production facilities. Lego wants to run the machines at 100% to make their Investment worthwile. Same goes with stocks, it is just not economical to block space for one year.

I also red that the license last untit 2022. I think it will be renewed. As for now the new Star Wars Trilogy will start in 2023.

TheBrickFan just confirmed that the Bespin Duel will only be available in North America because it is classified as an event item.

You sure it means the Bespin Duel will be an US exclusive? I took from the video that it will be sold for US exclusive at Target and not that it will be sold only in the US.
