Brilliant, cheers. Also noticed that we are missing a few others: 40675 - likely a multi-pack (or a better word, currently can’t think of it!) 40676 Both May 2024 releases. From Brickmerge and BrickClicker and reported by FalconFan.

Mods move if incorrect etc. Mentioned the other day, but just reminding that Brickmerge (reported by FalconFan) reported three additional sets. 75377 (March release) 75388 75389 Alongside the report were three pictures, suggested diorama set, buildable Droid, and a Midi-scale set.

Atleast I got one. Makes sense, though.

These were guesses.

Trust me, you can tell who’s waffling and pretending to know, and who actually knows. If you have access to the picture of the set, you have the picture. No speculation about it. Best to wait until someone actually cuts the BS. Because, the set is very clear cut. Clear.

Fair, thanks for clarifying!

I think the T6 Shuttle aesthetically is great. The figures are also strong. (can’t decide if I like the Droid as a figure…) The problem is, it feels lacking in multiple areas: play features, small cockpit, underside of wings. Couple that with the price, and I’m unsatisfied. Good one to get on discount that’s for sure. There is also a review of the new Gunship, and I think it looks pretty decent. (check HelloThereRex YouTube) Again, it has one too many issues for my liking: Fox epitomises Lego laziness, the stud shooters are off putting (admittedly easy to fix), and the Gunship is lacking play features compared to its predecessors. I can’t understand why we don’t have a small side-build that fits into either the compartments at the front or at the back of the Gunship. Admittedly, I’ve gotten over my Pilot issue with the set, but I do think it should have had an extra Shock Trooper. I’ve seen other reviews of the E-Wing set and I think I’m happy with it. Just The Ghost to go…fingers crossed. Was typing my post as you posted this and didn’t see. My sentiments exactly.

When will the 2024 thread get created?

Love this post. Certainly plenty of scope for proper Clone Wars stuff. I will add a few sets. Republic Acclamator £149.99: Shaak Ti, Republic Officer, Kamino Security Clone Trooper (x3), Astromech Droid Republic UT-AT £89.99: Ki-Adi Mundi, Commander Bacara, Galactic Marine (x2), Battle Droid Commander, Battle Droid (x2) Republic SPHA-T £159.99: Yoda, Phase I Clone Commander, Phase 1 Clone Captain, Phase 1 Clone Trooper (x3), Geonosian Battle Droid (x3)

Providing Lego were clever, I think the chosen sets could sell well. I’d certainly buy them. But sadly, I think we are a long way away from them, and I don’t think Lego would be bold in their choices. Maybe we might see a little resurgence with TFA’s 10 year anniversary and the new Rey film.

Can pretty much put a Jetpack on the Vaugh’n versions too, to help.

No, I meant the variants you listed. Couldn’t think of anything worse than named characters, personally.

I would buy many a battlepack with these figures; way better than the 2023 variants.

It’s only 215 pieces or so, and based on modern standards I think I’d be surprised if Lego manages to incorporate all these things given the pieces. But, you never know! I think so, but the levels of purchasing will be really high if it’s standard clones and the builds are good, especially the CIS vehicles as we don’t really have any thus far. Battle Pack build interests are definitely subjective, and personally amazing builds make a battle pack great not good.

Here’s my guess for the Clones Vs Droids Battle Pack. Clone Walker CIS STAP Crab Droid

It really felt like the designers completely and utterly cared and respected how their figures were going to be represented. It felt like I was buying a premium product.

Haha, such a good comment. Now I’ve been nice, give us the deet’s! Please…

Never thought I’d see the day where a Gunship does not make me excited. No idea why they made this smaller, personally. Plus, it’s a Gunship!! It’s meant to be in battles and that’s where most of the fun will come from. With this set, however, all someone is going to do is transport some senators and that’s it. I think it’s completely missed the mark.

I’ll reiterate - I actually quite like this first half of the year. Love the variation and I think there’s a real classic feel about it… In terms of specifics I’m all over that Super Battle Pack, Grogu’s Escape, the Droideka, and even the R2-D2 providing they’re all done right. Looking at the set numbers, are we confident there are more sets coming or have these been skipped? One thing I think this wave is missing is a couple of £20-£30 sets for January. Hence, I really do hope January had a few more sets!

2024 sounds quite interesting, fingers crossed the Clone legion is exciting! Get a feeling we might be getting shiny Phase II Clones somewhere…surely? That Droideka sounds super interesting, too! No helmets is a shame! Genuinely surprised at the lack of Mando S3/Ahsoka sets.

Sadly, I think we all know it isn’t laziness. Thank you for this though. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth when I see cases like this, and it’s happening more and more. Makes you wonder who’s making these decisions.

Rumour is it’s a regular set.

Lol, love it. Separately, really loving the UK prices on these sets! £64.99 and £94.99 respectfully is more than fair relative to previous experience, including what is on the shelves currently.

Two things. 1. Really disappointing to see the Shuttle can only accommodate one minfigure! 2. The lack of orange lightsabers is a bad move. Seems they haven’t learnt from the darksaber criticism. Plenty of positives, but certainly some subjective issues.

Yes my thoughts exactly for all three points here. Make January waves good again, they’re honestly an amazing start to the year if the sets are good. I think we all would be all over an E-Wing. I think it will be Shin’s Starfighter as this set is rumoured to be a dual pack alike the Tie and Fang Fighter earlier this year. Either way, the rumoured minifigure selection is amazing and certainly would make the other 2 sets even more exciting when put together.
