Sir Schvatts

Im really going to have to wait to see the final set. I am a big fan of the first RGS and this one looks very similar but to me its not better. I also wonder why is this set $100, I remember paying $70 for the first one. This new one at the moment has less figs that the first, is about the same size, then why $30 bucks more? I think the price this year are a little higher. Thank goodness I did not sell the old ones on ebay. X-D *crosses fingers in hopes for a great looking tx-130 fighter tank* *wub*

Yeah, just think of it as the Empires "request" for an upgraded AT AT. After their horrible performance on Hoth Kuat Drive Yards redesigned this transport to have a lower center of gravity. You all know how *vader* handles failure. :-D It is better than I thought it would be. Its is not as good as the first one though. I would like to see if there is room inside this walking one to actually put troops in to transport. I may get it and then hit up bricklink to buy the parts to make the old one in the new bluish grey. We shall see. >:-)

Wow this becoming quit the long post. I have no clue of any of the EU stories.........but I like that they are making it. More for me to use as I like. I like both sets of clones and really really hope they make a BP of the Kashyyyk troopers. I like them the best. With this great new of the expanding Star Wars world in Lego form I hope they make the TX-130. I had my hopes up two years ago when the turbo tank was announce. Its one of my favorite vehicles. *wub* It has been in many of the Star Wars games, like Battlefront. Here is good brick build one: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=879726 Anyways that's my two cents on the topic for now. Thanks DJ for the info.... I am truly sorry for all those who keep hounding you for pictures. *sad*

Yeah, I think a lot of people were expecting the hoth base would come with so much more than the price could offer. I saw it and was very upset myself because of the the lack of a taun taun. :'-( I think we all were. My first thought is this is just like b-wing at rebal control, except this set should be called snow speeder at echo base. I really think the turret is crappy looking. :-X However, as stated by many of the other members is the fact we will buy this set. Six great figures, yeah 50 bucks is a high price for battle pack, all figures are wirth getting. The speeder looks good but sad from me I dont really need anymore. When the last snowspeeder version was out I got 8 of them at K mart for around 55 dollar on clearance/damage box special. *sweet* I wonder if the price of snowtroopers will drop on BL? I hope with the success of the battle packs Lego will offer more. The cruiser is not so cool to me, never was. I will get one though just like the ISD. Green astromech... *wub* It is odd to me that the the last 3 sets in SW dont look so great, SI, Hoth base, and the RC. Ill have to get them first before passing final judgement. I did not think the grievous starfighter was that cool, but now I have one and really like it. The MTT is the highlight of this years sets. Lets all hope at the AT-AT supercedes I thoughts for it.

I have been looking at this set and many of the other sets TLC is giving us lately and wonder if we will ever get a castle town system? *wub* This my have been brought up in another forum. I am also excited to see if TLC will make a skyscrapper.... one is shadowed in the picture. Could be box art, cuold be really. TLC is full of surprises now.

Well Im not all about speculating what the Hoth base will offer, but I think people are getting build up for a big let down. TLC has given some great sets this year. Hoth will be no different. It will most likely be a Mos Eisley Cantina in white. A taun taun instead of a dewback, the probe droid and turret instead of a speeder, a Hoth Luke, 2 snowtroopers, maybe 2 rebels. Remember the b-wing at rebel control? Well rebel control was nothing, that is was Hoth base will be. If TLC puts another Hoth Han and Leia in the set I will laugh. Those figures will be in 3 sets. Who needs more than one of them? Are people making Leia Armies? Anyways, Im not one for guessing but this is what I gather from the past. Lets hope it is like the Imperial Inspection and has several troopers. *crosses fingers*

This is a miraculous set. I think, and strongly hope, that UA is right and TLC has gone minifigure scale. If this is the case Im bigger truoble than I thought. TLC is smart finally getting a little smarter. (after several years) The only reason I bought the MF is because it is minifig scale. Now this is so nice that I will probably get one..... and I dont by town stuff! It is so great over all as a standalone and with figures too *wub* . I like the idea of adding it into a pirate area... I will if the all powerful wife deems it buy this set *skull* . This really is an expensive year with no end in sight. May TLC have mercy on our souls.

Well I just checked shop at home and preordered my Falcon. Wow, 500 big ones!! My wilf will flip when she sees that. 8-| Good thing they dont charge you till it ships...... October.

I think I will get one of the Cawlers frist before I judge it. Its different..... love the tread though. I just really really really what the TX 130 fighter tank. *wub* That is the land vehicle I like the most. So, if TLC is making EU, game and other Star Wars based vehicles they really need to make that one. Also, where the heck are the 501st clones? Those are the poster childs of the clones.

Well, after a long time of think about how sweet the new MTT is, I have scrapped the old MTT. I really think Lego is getting better and better this year. One small, okay, big gripe is: Why make the droid battle pack without the new blasters and the MTT with them???? *wacko* I personally never was a big fan of the Naboo Fighter, so I will probably only get one. However, I will hit up bricklink for the new pilot. *y* Lastly, the Jedi Starfighter will be my number one purchase. Why? Another Jedi and it looks good in blue.

I dont care too much for the skull castle, however, I see a nice looking scythe. That is an item I have wanted Lego to make from a long long time. *sweet* I really hope they stick with it. Also, the knight is nicer in that set as well.

I just have to say that all around this is the most promising castle I have seen since the Black Monarchs. I would actually pay full price. I bought a few things of KK2 on sale and never really liked them enough to buy more, even on clearance! I am personally excited for these, no more goofy swords, and goofy colors. The dragon is a let down, it looks like the same dragon style as the Harry Potter dragon..... :-X The skeleton change is nice, no more flimsy arms. I really really hope this not some big hoax.
