Was just thinking that too! With the Rebel troopers in the boarding party set you could create one pretty easily now. Ezra and Cal look good as well. Not sure about the blue eyes on Ezra just yet though.

Can’t say I’m hugely impressed with the Great Hall. As others have said the 2018 version still feels like the definitive version for me. This version omits the fireplace and the lectern as well. I’m also not hugely keen on those large stickers they’ve used in the dungeons - it feels like the sort of stickers they’ve been using in the Hogwarts moments/banner sets. The minifigure lineup is excellent though and the exterior proportions look a lot better too. Ollivanders looks really nice. Hopefully that sign post is tease of what’s to come.

I think the dioramas have been good but I feel some have bought more to the table than others. The trash compactor and the throne room depicted two rooms at an incredible level of detail that we hadn’t seen previously (especially the latter), the Dagobah set included an exclusive R2 figure and gave us a lot more detail than the 2018 version. The Podracing diorama is fine but it doesn’t really bring anything new or interesting to the table IMO. It would’ve been nice to include a feature that would allow the podracers to move or something.

Yeah I’m surprised they haven’t tapped into the diorama sets for HP yet. Lots of potential there. I’ve always thought something like a microscale Knight Bus racing down the streets of London would make a good one.

Yeah and not to mention it’s been 8(?) years since we last saw him in a set - feels long overdue. I wonder if they might include the superlaser control room. The superlaser is one of the most iconic/recognisable parts which would make sense. I could see the remaining figures being 2x Death Star Gunners and maybe Tarkin and Romodi?

That Interceptor looks brilliant. That droid carrier is really nice too. I must admit although I’ve enjoyed some of the microscale stuff we’ve been getting for May 4th, I wouldn’t mind seeing more promos like this in the future.

I like all of those, especially the Chimera. Profundity: Admiral Raddus, Rebel Trooper (x2), Caitken, Darth Vader and Blue Leader. Midi-scale Raddus And whilst obviously not a capital ship, I’d love to see the Hammerhead Corvette from Rebels/Rogue One.

Yeah, was not expecting that. So many cool things there. Yeah, I’m hoping (if they do continue) we may get something like Tales of the Empire with Kallus and Tarkin, Tales of the Rebellion with Leia and Saw Gerrera etc.

I’m still not sure about the Infiltrator to be honest. But the minifigures do look good. Looks like they’ve used Harry’s hairpiece for Anakin right?

I can see what they were going for up but I think I’ll pass as well. It’s a shame because there I think was a member on this forum who designed a really nice Ideas set which just missed the 10k mark but was a lot better than this.

Agreed. It’s a great figure that not only celebrates Star Wars but also the impact of the fandom. It would be nice if, in the instructions, they include a page about her backstory or something.

The Sith Infiltrator looks okay. I must admit I do think previous sets (like the 2011 version) look a little better IMO. The BARC speeder looks really nice.

The podracing set looks good. Since it’s a very dynamic scene I do think they could have included something to reflect that. Maybe a scrolling background like the NES set or something.

The Acolyte trailer dropped, looks like there’s a quite a few non-human characters which bodes well for some alien minifigures.

It’s a good choice for the anniversary. I can’t help but wonder if we could have got have gotten a figure similar to the bacta tank Finn - like maybe a Young Anakin in his Jedi robes at the end of TPM or C3PO without his plating. But I’m happy with the figure nonetheless.
