Can we please skip the discussion on availability? We don't have Wal-Mart or Target in Denmark, but we still get the SE sets in certain toy-stores. I'm sure it's the same all over the world, which kinda makes discussion on availability in the US noise to the rest of us. We've got a thread for such things, let's just keep it that those sets are Special Editions and leave it at that. If we were to discuss where and why each set would be avaialable in every single country, then it would get messy. Plus some members actually find it slightly offensive that other members consider this topic a US topic solely. So "Stay On Target!" and discuss the sets and pictures, please

It was a mistake on amazon. They put the LEGO Star Wars Brickmaster book up twice. Just click the link for the book underneath it and you'll get what you're looking for. They only released one book and the first one isn't it

Looks like the European release of the 2011 January wave will be released on the 16-18th of December. I guess it's almost the same for the US - not sure though.

Thanks. But we've actually already seen final pictures of most of those sets. But those are really crystal clear prelims I must say.

Nice reflection in Vader's chrome But the rest of your pics are awfully dusty. The dust in the background in the Jawa Scavenger picture makes me want to pay you a visit introducing the dust feather and a modern thing called a vacuum-cleaner. And also that poor sandcrawler is overly dusted Do you ever clean? I suggest real sand or corn-flour instead. Dust is yucky!

Nothing. It's no more than rumor by now. We've heard that a calendar should be out in 2011 from different sources, but nothing's confirmed yet. And I kinda doubt we'll get confirmation until stores are offered the possibility to order their 2011 Advent Calendars. - Which wont be until Summer 2011. I sure hope it's more than a rumor

Sorry to ask, but would that be the model or the instructions that you put up for sale on baronsat.net? And that elephant IS huge.

Perhaps. I would rather discuss what we expect to see in the future though. But that topic is being spammed with wishlists instead of a regular discussion. One could easily see the same thing happening here, wouldn't you agree? I care not for parts count and stuff like that. I care more about which sets we're getting and what direction LEGO Star Wars is taking in general. But it's getting hard to follow the Future Star Wars sets-topic because of all the wanted lists

Just beware of those goddam watchdogs

Arw man, I was going to say that Happy B-Day Peppy - hope to see you IRL at the Event next year.

I agree. But for now it stays. At least until we've got some kind of confirmation on the Summer wave list. That one's still pure speculation.

Slow down people - consider your posts and remember that this is NOT a chatroom, but a discussion topic on the 2011 lineup of sets.

I fail to see the point in this. To me this looks like another topic like Most wanted character/vehicle/spaceship/bounty hunter and such. I'm sceptic as to where is meant to lead any of us?

What's that supposed to mean? I'll merge this (in a few hours) with the "General LEGO Star Wars Questions"-topic as it has been answered. Not sure I'm fond of this kind of topic. Imagine the amount of topics if everyone would ask such questions, but you guys have answered kindly and there's been no rush of "what to buy"-topics, so I'll "take it easy"

Fair enough. I'll have to consider buying it then

Indeed, But for now all packed sets with more than 800 parts will be having this type of instructions & stickers packaging. Bear in mind though, that it's only sets being packed now and therefore you might actually buy a 8043 that hasn't got this instructions cardboard wrapping.

Wow, you couldn't even let Hinckster have a birthday topic of his own Happy Birthday Mr Happy. Drop by Scandinavia anytime and I'll share a Havana Club with you.

Perfect work once again. How about you flash us some inventory or instructions for this one? I'd love to do a Sand People setup once and this could save me from trying to copy or even design a Bantha of my own

Wouldn't that be 12? I count 8 Battle Droids...

Nope, not at all. If anything, it's a little annoying Thanks, I'll go fix it.
