Hopefully the podracer is still happening and someone just got the set number mixed up.

Awesome work! It still frustrates me to this day that we never got an official Balrog and the line's premature end.

The scale of the Turbo Tank is disapointing, although I do like that it has a proper underside again like the 2005 version. The Clone Wars version was a bit lazy in that regard. Also love the colours of Luminara's costume. The mix of black, dark grey and dark brown look much more interesting and accurate than the all-black costume she's had on previous minifigures. Quinlan Vos also looks fantastic! Not sure I like how stubby the AT-RT is though - the one from the previous Turbo Tank was much nicer. Sabine looks even better up close than the Season 1 minifigure. Shame she still has the inaccurate skin colour and the face of a soccor mum. I take back my previous comment - it does look like the officer is indeed Tarkin up close. Still not keen on the hair/uniform colour but at least he finally has pupil eyes and I'm sure we'll be seeing a proper OT redesign with the Death Star later in the year. Not a lot to say about the other minifigures. The Fifth Brother looks fantastic while the clones are fairly boring. Excellent head molds for Unkar and Teedo. Definitely looks like Dengar in one of the Adventure sets along with ROTJ Luke Skywalker. Shame there's no close up of Darth Vader.

Any LOTR fans been following Toy Fair? Both City and Nexu Knights have some volcano themed sets coming out that should be very useful in providing parts for Mordor/Mount Doom MOCs. http://zusammengebaut.com/toy-fair-2016-five-new-lego-city-volcano-sets-on-display-4344/ http://zusammengebaut.com/toy-fair-2016-lego-nexo-knights-jestros-volcano-lair-video-presentation-4331/

Glad the Bespin Guard will be made cheaply available. Also hoping the black minifigure is an Imperial Navy Trooper and not a First Order Technician. Also curious if the chrome C-3PO is actually supposed to be E-3PO from Cloud City or another TC-14. Also just spotted the Fifth Brother on the AT-TE boxart. Hard to make out the detail but he looks pretty cool. Fingers crossed the Seventh Sister will appear in the Ahsoka set.

LOVE the new TIE Advanced! Looks like a massive improvement over the previous versions. Nice to see we're getting a Season 2 Sabine, although I'm not sure the officer is supposed to be Grand Moff Tarkin. The dark grey hair colour and tan uniform looks more like Commander Sato to me. The new X-Wing looks amazing too. Really like the colours on this one. Definitely looks like Poe is using the new Superman hairpiece. The Luggerbeast looks a little oversized but still nicely done for a brick built creature. Not too sure about the junkyard though. The build looks a little too random and thrown together. Teedo's headmold is brilliant though. Still not sure if I'll be getting the AT-TE but it does look nicely done. Shame the Inquisitor got cropped out of the photo.

Chewbacca sounds interesting. Hopefully by white they mean he will be covered in patches of snow like on Hoth. It would be perfect to tie in with the new Echo Base thats coming out. I'm still hoping they can fit Hoth Leia in somewhere either in the Advent Calender or Echo Base.

Unlike Marvel's sets I don't think these new DC ones excite me that much. I guess Scarecrow's harvester isn't bad but the rest feels like more of the same. The minifigures are definitely the highlights here. Its great to finally have Killer Croc updated after so long.

Really impressed by the sets. The bridge is by far the best Spider-Man set we've gotten yet! I definitely plan on picking up a second to expand it. The line up of characters is fantastic as well! Its great to see so many new additions.

Bit disapointed there isn't anything we already know. Its also a shame they had to waste two of the sets on non-existant ships, especially after barely anyone bought the Yoda Chronicles stuff.

I almost feel bad for saying the crates are by far my favourite part of the set. The Combat Driver looks nice too but not the most exciting minifigure. The oversized speeder bike just looks ridiculous.

I'm hoping the TIE Bomber is due for a remake next year now that its appearing in Rebels. Something else I think could work well is splitting up a Bounty Hunter Pursuit remake into two sets around the Jedi Interceptor/Escape Pod price range. Anakin's Airspeeder - with Obi-Wan, Anakin and Senator Padme (could just print the sumo/ballerina hairpiece instead of creating a new mold) Zam's Airspeeder - with Zam Wesell, Jango Fett and Assassin Probe I think they would fit in perfectly with next year's Winter wave.

The Original Trilogy gets plenty of attention through the UCS line though. I wouldn't rule out the Sailbarge being redone one day more like the recent Sandcrawler, or Jabba's Palace being revisited like Echo Base and the Death Star are this year.

I'd like to see Leia and Lando released in their Rebels costumes down the line.

I'll be disapointed if there isn't a new Podracer. Hopefully someone just got the name and set number mixed up.

It would be nice if we did get more. The new Spider Droid feels like a wasted opportunity to include some other Jedi.

Pretty happy with the new X-Wing. The colours look good and it'll be good to have Resistance Poe and Lor San Tekka to add to the collection. The Turbo Tank looks a little similar to the last version, but I like the bulkier look of the turret and return of the command tower. The olive green on the AT-RT looks good but I'm not too sure on the build yet. Looks a bit blocky between the legs and the head. Hopefully we get a proper AT-RT Driver with it and its good to have non-CW versions of Luminara and Quinlan Vos. The A-Wing vs TIE Fighter is my favourite of the wave. Vader's TIE in particular looks to be a fantastic upgrade. I'm curious who the officer could be though - the text underneath suggests it will be a named character.

Would it really matter if it did happen? Luke will be back in Episode 8 anyway and likely wearing the same costume as before. There's no way he won't be included in any sets by the time the Sequel Trilogy is over. Just need to be patient. Wouldn't the simpler option be to just release a brickbuilt Rathtar and 3 minifigures (Hero, Bala-Tik, Guavian) in a cheap set like Shelob Attacks? Thats all you really need to cover the scene.

I'd love a Vicki Vale minifigure along with Lucius Fox, Ra's Al Ghul and Talia Al Ghul. Also now that we're getting a Batcave based on the 60s show I'd like to see Lego do something for Batman 89 and Batman Returns. Especially if it means getting this Catwoman:

The tank can also be seen on Coruscant when Yoda is preparing to leave for Kashyyyk. Doubtful the set will be based on this scene but it would provide a nice opportunity for some gray-marked Coruscant clones.

One minifigure I just remembered hasn't been made yet is the AT-RT Driver seen on Kashyyyk after Order 66. Since the last Turbo Tank included an AT-RT that could be folded up inside, maybe they can include another one here with the driver this time?

Its to put accessories like a crown in. The piece was originally modeled after Leia's Endor hairstyle but designed so it could also be reused in the Castle line.

Bly has different markings on his helmet. The 2005 figure is just meant to be an ordinary Star Corps Clone.

I don't think the head even needs to be changed to look younger. Just a different expression from the Final Duel one should be enough so he's not smiling. Its not like we ever see Vader's face on the show anyway. I don't think we'll get a new helmet mold either since the last one was just recently introduced and neither Rebels or TCW used seperate helmet molds from the other movie figures. The main difference should be in the torso printing. On Rebels (and A New Hope) Vader wears his robes over his shoulder armor. Previous Vader minifigures have been based on the ROTS/ESB/ROTJ look where the shoulder armor goes on top of the robes. You can see the difference here:
