Thanks for posting. I for one, think this is a much better wave than this year's first wave, this year's January wave was a huge let-down, in my opinion. Although, the Planet sets are poor to me. Don't care for the TIE, the Kamino could have been worthwhile except they chose a poor mini-figure for it. Depending on pictures, I may get the Coruscant one. The regular sets sound pretty decent to me. Both battle packs I will probably get, hoping the TOR one is two Republic Troopers and two Sith Troopers. Clones vs Droidekas I will definitely buy, though I'm more hoping for TCW P2 Clones, and they could be, seen as previous reports said 3 of the regular sets would be TCW, and only 2 of this list definitely are. The A-Wing I don't really care about, depends on pics probably. AT-RT sounds very bland, and that's coming from someone who buys most TCW sets. The Clone has to be a special P1 variation or a P2 version, to warrant this set's release. Z-95 Headhunter to me is the best of the wave. Three new Clones, plus possibly Krell I believe. The Clones I expect will be Rex, Fives and maybe a P2 Clone Pilot or P2 501st or something, and I really like the ship so I'm definitely gonna want that set most.

I think we'll likely see a Geonosis Planet Set. But after that, I agree. I honestly don't expect many Geonosis sets at all next year...

Well I love TCW sets, and was really disappointed with this year's TCW selection, so hopefully these 3 will be good. And remember he did say 3 other, perhaps one or two of them are AOTC? One of those 3 has to be the Rancor Pit though. Plus, there's the two exclusives, and we don't know what Planet sets there will be. You will get your AOTC product, don't you worry...

On the contrary, it could be anytime for all we know. JediNews themselves still don't have the full list, so it may even be after CVI before we get the list. And I'm hoping for a mix of AOTC Clones & TCW Phase II Clones, though more so the latter for me.

Just spoke with the JediNews owner, this is what he told me. So we won't be getting the list at all this week, but I'll see what he says about if we will get the list after this week...

Well, it wasn't confirmed we would get it today, only that it would be this week that we got the list. We will have it soon.

I'd say pictures, just like as the reveal of the Rancor Pit. Can't say for certain though.

It was a few days ago that he told me that, so chances are he may now have the full list, but we'll see. And yeah, he did tell me there will be a few 2013 items revealed at CVI.

We will, I spoke to the owner of JediNews, who coincidentally will be one of the panellists, James Burns, and he told me a few days ago that he has seen most of the list, but not all, which is probably why it's not up yet. But it should be soon.

Looks great. Can't wait to see more.

I hope so too. I'm personally hoping 2013 has a better TCW showing than 2012 did. I'm not so much talking about the number of TCW sets released this year, but more the set choice...

Shouldn't be too long, I'd say we'll have those rumours by the 10th. Last year it was the 6th, 7th or 8th, and even before that we had Mirandir's info for the 2012 rumours.

I believe Lego said at their Comic-Con panel that Rancor Pit would be $59.99, so yeah, I think the UK price would be around £50.

It has. I mentioned it one of the posts near the top of this page. I don't know why they changed it, but it does make sense to continue it as quickly as possible after the Season 4 finale.

If you look really closely and pause it right as the Mando explodes, you can see several red splashes. That's the blood. It's a real blink and you'll miss it moment.

Two preview clips! http://insidetv.ew.com/2012/07/14/star-wars-the-clone-wars-darth-maul-video/ http://ie.ign.com/articles/2012/07/14/comic-con-star-wars-the-clone-wars-season-5-exclusive-meet-obi-wans-surprising-new-allies And in the second one, you even see blood go flying at one point!

A couple of clips were shown at The Clone Wars panel today, hopefully they will be up soon. By the way, point of interest. The new first episode of Season 5 is now "Revival", and will continue the Darth Maul story.

I don't buy many OT sets, and am pretty picky and choosy when it comes to Lego Star Wars now. But this I probably will have to buy, looks pretty good.

I don't tend to buy UCS sets, and the B-Wing gives me no reason to change that. Yet another set I will be passing on this year.

Over where I live in the Republic of Ireland and the UK in general, all the regular releases (not exclusives) have been found at Smyths stores. I picked up the Lobot planet set while I was there, so they should be out worldwide soon.

The original Star Wars Weekends trailer now up in high quality! http://insidetv.ew.com/2012/06/11/star-wars-the-clone-wars-season-5-trailer-darth-maul-death-watch-battle-over-the-galaxy-exclusive/ And also up on Youtube:

New season 5 clip. PS: It does confirm for sure that Rush Clovis will indeed be returning:

I'd say Vizsla's face on the mini-figure is the same as the generic Mandalorian Warriors. Seen as the Mandalorians Warriors mini-figure faces were originally based off Vizsla's face from the show, I don't think the face will be any different on the Vizsla mini-figure.

Confirmed through Insider that Padme Amidala will have a huge story-arc next season. If my hunch is correct, that arc will probably have something to do with the return of Clovis.

I think it could be Embo. After all, we see Savage knock him to the ground at one point in the trailer. And it seems like all Hondo is getting is a cameo, but we'll see...
