  1. There is no Frodo & Ringwraith set. The website it appeared on had four sets listed with the correct set numbers but the wrong names. 79005 Frodo and Ring Wraith 79006 ??? 79007 Eagles Nest 79008 Pirate Ship The actual sets we're getting: 79005 The Wizard Battle 79006 The Council of Elrond 79007 Battle at the Black Gate 79008 Pirate Ship Ambush Would have been nice to get more Ringwraiths in a cheap set. Maybe they might show up in a polybag this year? I can't say I really want to see Arwen released in another set so soon though. Its disapointing enough we had to get her and Tauriel before Eowyn and Galadriel.
  2. Fantastic episode. Easily the best of the season. If I had one complaint about this storyarc its that some parts felt a little rushed, which really shouldn't have been an issue if the show hadn't wasted a month on the adventures of an obnoxious talking toad. I guess with Satine gone there's even less chance of a Lego minifigure now.
  3. I think its just the box for the Advent Calender. The figures look to be Santa Jango on the left, then Boba, an unknown figure, the Geonosian, the Scout Trooper and the astromech at the end.
  4. The new Leia looks amazing! Really glad they gave her a new headpiece this time around. The torso design looks a bit cluttered but overall I prefer it to the original.
  5. Very nice! I'd love to see some official Nightsisters one day.
  6. The one from the video game was pretty similar to the castle dragons.
  7. Nice ideas. Just one suggestion for the Coruscant Chase - what do you think about also including a Senator Padme minifigure? Yeah she wasn't exactly involved in the chase sequence, but its not like there's any other set opportunities for her out there. It would be nice to get what Padme variants we can.
  8. While what you said sounds correct based on reports from other sources, I wouldn't be so quick to rely on Brickipedia as a trusted source. Like any wiki on the internet, anyone can come along and edit whatever they like. I could create a page for a 76010 Wayne Manor and some gullable fool would be naive enough to think its a real set.
  9. Both young Boba and Ree Yees look amazing. Hopefully the new molds for Rees and Max Rebo will come in nice hard ABS plastic. Not a fan of the cheap rubber Lego uses on a lot of figures these days.
  10. Thanks for the pics. The AT-TE doesn't look much different from the previous release. Looks like I'll be passing on this one as I don't need another and Coleman Trebor is the only figure of interest. JEK-14 looks interesting with a nice selection of minifigures. Is the blue one supposed to be a Senate Commando? Hopefully pics of the other sets will leak soon.
  11. One thing I'd prefer was different to the game version is the skin tone. The standard brown is perfect for Stas Allie, but I think the one used for Captain Panaka would be more accurate for Adi Gallia.
  12. I'm still holding hope for a Phoenix Jean to appear in a set one day. Remember the Dark Knight Batman was also exclusive to Comic Con and not to be found in any sets. Now Lego has released the Tumbler set with a Batman that is based on the exact same costume, but is a completely different figure to the Comic Con one. If Batman can get away with it no reason Jean Grey can't either, especially when the green Phoenix costume is by far her most iconic look.
  13. Most reports from Toy Fair are saying she's Adi Gallia. It might not be movie accurate having her in a Geonosis themed set, but thats never stopped Lego before. Personally I think Adi Gallia is the better choice anyway since she's the one most people are more familiar with.
  14. Glad to see Gondor Aragorn, Gandalf the White and Saruman are the same as the video game. All three figures look amazing! The Mouth of Sauron is great too. I like they gave his helm a more metalic look compared to the game. Elrond is great as well. Very nice colour selection and his new face looks even better than the previous one. Arwen looks lovely, but is her dress supposed to be her riding costume? They would've been better doing it in dark grey or dark green. Either way I can't say I'm as excited for this one compared to the others when we still haven't gotten Eowyn or Galadriel.
  15. I can't seem to find any new pic on the site.
  16. Fingers crossed for Galadriel later in the year. Unfortunately unless there's some Toys R Us exclusive thats yet to be revealled we're going to have to wait another year for Eowyn.
  17. Lucasfilm hasn't given a reason but I'd say its very likely they wanted to accelerate the re-releases to build up to Episode VII. All thats been confirmed is AOTC will be out in late September and ROTS in early October.
  18. I think there's a bit of misinformation here. The Vader packaging will be replacing the Yoda one for most brands in the second half of 2013. There's been no word on whether it will carry into 2014 or not. Also it seems Lego won't be affected by the design change. http://jedinews.co.uk/news/news.aspx?newsID=10077 Keep in mind that ROTS is being re-released alongside AOTC this year, not in 2014.
  19. Some nice ideas, however I would prefer to see a brick built Balrog or Treebeard before Lothlorien. There's also a severe lack of Eowyn...
  20. Not just ANH but likely ESB and ROTJ as well. Lucasfilm will probably want to get them out before Episode 7 hits theatres in 2015.
  21. Hobbit size Eowyn isn't as good as the real thing.
  22. While it needs to get made at some point, its too soon for one after the Malevolance. I think there's a higher chance of seeing another Turbo Tank first.
  23. I thought it was these character packs that started it all?
  24. To be honest I'm not expecting a lot of focus on ROTS next year. There's really not a whole lot left that hasn't already been covered by AOTC and TCW.
