Thanks for the news. Sounds great!

No, he's referring to 10188 Death Star which is coming out next year. It was briefly listed on LEGO's replacement parts service. We don't know what it is, but we a assume it's a minifig scale playset.

Well, I think the comment "I'm getting old so my memory is vague..." says a lot. If he wasn't sure he would have just said so, IMO.

Check out Jeremy's posts here: http://threads.rebelscum.com/showflat.php?...b=5&o=&fpart=10 They imply that this news is real . . .

No, we're talking about the new 'Speed Racer' license. SR is a film coming out next year written by the Wachowski brothers, based on an old anime series. Here's a pic from the latest catalogue:

It doesn't look like it'll be minifig scale, since its in the 'Racers' theme.

Maybe they're Impulse sets? But the set numbers don't fit with the Impulse numbers, so I would go with Yoda and say they're promos.

That looks about right to me.

I found new (small) pics on Flickr in this gallery! They've been uploaded for quite some time (July/August). No idea where they came from!

Thanks for the pics. I'm very pleasantly surprised by the Rogue Shadow. It's good that the figures come with additional head wear, and the set itself looks much better as well (the bottom left pic on the back of the box looks great!). Also, that Anakin fig looks interesting.

That's just a reflection on the glass in front of it.

It's got less pieces than Cafe Corner. My guess it'll probably cost about the same, though.

Here's the pics he was trying to show. Looks like the final versions:

One more time so that it sinks in :-P Remember, these are all still prototypes. These are exactly the same pics we saw before, just bigger.

Remember, these are all still prototypes.

The old version was a very oversized Technic version. This one's more accurate, size-wise.

Those are just prototype versions. Compare the motorcycle chase (prototype) with the final version.

No, these are the prototypes. The final versions are in this thread: http://eurobricks.hosting.ipsyn.com/eurofo...ndpost&p=206165

I'm pretty sure the first four will be out in January, and the wave for the fourth movie will be out in April/May.

I don't think it's underscale. Spider droids are about the same height as battle droids.

I couldn't find one, no.

On this site I found final 2008 pics. They're small, but you can see the differences: Stickers, plus a few other minor alterations. Looks exactly the same. Same here. Brown wheels, different Spider-droid, yellow battle droid Looks a lot better from this angle. Juno Eclipse has got blonde hair instead of a black hat.
