  1. It’s not political, it’s almost certainly the supply chain issues. The sets aren’t on the website in other regions as well.
  2. The AT-ST, microfighter and Ahsoka went live on S@H last night in Aus, not the other sets as others have mentioned. Ahsoka is already on backorder. Went into my certified store and grabbed the AT-ST, they hadn’t received the other sets yet except for the microfighter. Really annoyed that the battle pack has been pushed to the 10th, I’m desperate to fill my walker lol and I’m not putting in a S@H order for only the brickheadz
  3. Book 2, page 34, step 281. Granted taking this one apart is about as difficult as the other assemblies, but the point still stands.
  4. Wow, they actually made a video addressing it. Still missed one of the building steps that was causing concern though. Done and dusted I guess. Still don’t think that build should’ve made it into the final set, just another example of how LEGO’s quality control is slowly slipping.
  5. Everyone’s gut is telling them endor, mine is telling me Jabba’s palace. Let’s see if I get to hold you to this There has also been Slave Leia merch since the Disney buyout, albeit not as common as it used to be. I saw an officially licensed metal statue of her in the bikini at a jewellery store a few months ago.

  7. I hate the last jedi more than anyone else, but this complaint is invalid. They are directly above a planet, gravity is in full effect.
  8. Considering that a lot of people were somehow opposed to the idea it’s not that surprising. I’m more upset about the commander from the gunship turning up here. Of all the exclusive figures from UCS sets to turn up in a cheap set, it just had to be the commander.
  9. Great. The certified store near me never has accessory packs and if these are anything like the 501st pack they’ll be perpetually out of stock online.
  10. That’s the same commander from the gunship, isn’t it? These look awesome, I want to buy many of them but I doubt they’ll be easy to find in Australia
  11. What does MandR have to do with this discussion? Things were leaking out of LAN long before his channel took off and they will continue to leak out of LAN long after his channel crashes and burns. FWIW if SVL came back tomorrow and gave us info for the 2HY sets I’d still trust him. His legacy is good in my book, I don’t think the V-19 and Resistance Pod rumor originated from him and even if it did it was an isolated incident that became a pretty good joke with how prevalent the “rumor” was for the next 2 years.
  12. I thought he got sick of everyone pestering him for leaks so he turned around and said no more… or was that C4MSci? Not that it matters anymore. You are absolutely right when you talk about a fake list being easy to spot from a mile away. It’s kinda funny how almost every person who tries to fake a list gets tripped up on the same things. For a while there we knew a list was fake because everyone kept putting the V-19 and resistance transport on their fakes.
  13. So there’s a page in the instructions of the lightsaber GWP that states it’s the saber Luke had in RotJ… I’ve defended the LEGO Star Wars team a lot this year but I think I finally get where some of the gunship haters have been coming from. They definitely need someone on the team who is actually a Star Wars fan to be checking for that sort of stuff.
  14. I hope the bin you’re throwing them into is the spare parts bin
  15. Yes. It will stay built for a while and later be taken apart for space (maybe the parts, haven’t built it yet so idk if there’s anything I need) or to be rebuilt again. It’s not about damaging a handful of parts either, it’s about the building experience and the fact that all of the knees and the middle section can’t be disassembled properly is annoying. It’s not enough to completely turn me off of a set I already bought to build but it is enough to make me wait for a few weeks to see if lego is going to do anything about it.
  16. https://brickset.com/article/67650/lego-is-now-designing-sets-that-can-t-be-taken-apart Turns out the build in the leg isn’t the only thing that can’t be taken apart in the model. My AT-AT came today but now I’m having second thoughts about opening it.
  17. Occam’s razor, and since Disney Star Wars has become entangled in politics I think entertaining any other explanations is a waste of time.
  18. Even if the head prints are the ones from the 501st battle pack it’s still an improvement. You’re a fool if you think that the figures are going to be the same as the ones released 10 years ago, and furthermore the old figures are worth a small fortune so getting new versions is great for all the people who missed out on the old ones… which I’m certain is a higher number of people than those who would boycott an accessory pack over the clones having the “wrong” helmets. The last clone probably is just a shiny… but if it is based on Rookies then it could easily be Fives 1. I kinda get why they exist, having a $16 millennium Falcon is great, but the out of proportion style sucks. Bring back the planet series please. 2. I don’t mind some obscure stuff here and there, I certainly prefer galaxy’s edge sets over freemaker stuff. That said I despise galaxy’s edge on a whole so more things like the sandspeeder please 6. I think this is just because there’s been so much new content they haven’t gotten around to it. Im sure a real Jabba’s palace will come down the line. None of the bs mosque “controversy” was relevant in the first place so there’s really nothing stopping them from doing it. And there have been other slave Leia toys since the Disney buyout so the outfit isn’t completely taboo as some people seem to think 7. Hard disagree. D-O, maybe, but Yoda and the probe are great. UCS sets without busting the bank. 8. That’s on Disney, not LEGO. Everyone’s calling it starship now, and 40 years of toy sales tell us it’s not for recognisability reasons as some people would have us believe. Don’t let them try to tell you it’s not the Slave I, because the ship absolutely is the Slave I. 9. I feel your pain. BIONICLE deserved better.
  19. It’s simple, I want Rex and Cody figures. Especially since these will almost certainly be done in a normal style without CW eyes, have realistic skin tones under the helmet and have new prints. The fact that these two characters are going to be available together and in a cheap set is icing on the cake. Would I have preferred phase 2? Absolutely. Would I have rather gotten 3 plain clone troopers instead of the 2 most popular named clones? Absolutely not.
  20. I’m sorry, but Rex and Cody are two of the most requested figures of the last 10 years. Really seems like to me like they’re listening to the fans.
  21. That’s some wishful thinking right there. We won’t know for sure until January but if it’s anything other than 3 shinies we’ll be lucky.
  22. 3 troopers all with the same skin tone? Doesn’t sound like something lego would do.
  23. Oh yay, an illegal build made it in to a thousand dollar set. This is gold, I can't wait to watch this get blown way out of proportion. People who never intended to buy this set will be using this as their excuse not to buy it and will cause copious amounts of drama just like the perceived lack of minifigures in the gunship. Very surprising... why didn't this get out sooner? A lot of the people who had review copies definitely would have picked up on that being illegal. I foresee this causing massive problems. Not only can you not get the axle out, you can't get the frame off of the turntable with the axle in place. People are definitely going to end up attaching the frame to the turntable wrong and will be unable to fix it once they realize their mistake. It's possible this was done on purpose for stability reasons, but I'm guessing this is a massive oversight from quality control and I reckon there's a high chance we'll see a fix akin what happened with the Wall-E ideas set.
  24. I can guarantee you they will try. Poor sales is such a bs excuse. Of course sales are going to be poor if you don’t give the customers stock to buy
  25. Pictures?
