  1. Honestly I'd prefer to see a couple of reviews before release date just to get a feel of the set. Never hurts a consumer to see what you are buying before making a purchase.
  2. That's actually a weird situation with BW set. Usually sets appear in stores earlier and there are some reviews on YouTube 2 weeks before official release, but it doesn't seem to be the case this time around.
  3. Ouch, 80$ for this Venomsaurus is too much. Should be 60$ for it to be a good deal and 70$ for it to be ok. Overpriced sets as usual for Marvel line.
  4. Venomsaurus is looking pretty cool. Now that is unique way to include venom in a set, not those stupid Venom mechs. Original and cool set. Definitely interested in it. Spider-ham is great, Iron Spider thought not so much.
  5. Sure making Han Solo esqe carbonide molds was unlikely, but they could at least make those a prints instead of stickers. For 130$ they really don’t give us a lot! If this set didn’t have the child, I guarantee it wouldn’t sell very good. Recently LEGO just doesn’t put a lot of value into the sets tbh. I mean we get 4 minifigs in 130$ set, but also in 15$ battllepack?! Minifig wise they could have at least added Kuill, Moff Gideon and a Deathtropper. This wouldn’t bankrupt LEGO but would have added value to the set itself.
  6. This series is good for a regular CMF, but very dissapoiting as a series 20, 10th anniversary. No special rare minifigure like Mrs Gold. Too bad Lego decided not to do something special for this series.
  7. According to the description from Lego shop, Mando is new minifg, so one we see right now is probably a placeholder. And apparently set include new Carbonite pieces representing several bounty Mando has in the hold in EP 1.
  8. Yay, Razorcrest is real and even comes with baby Yoda. Must buy day one!
  9. Different color, but the fig is still the same as before. It's not like they completely redesigned Grievous minifigure entirely, just painted him tan.
  10. That's Lego for you in past 5 years! They seriously manage to make things worse for us as customers. Nowadays there can be 90$ x-wing with 3 minifigures, so don't be surprised. I can't understand what they were thinking with 80$ Grievous starfighter with 3 minifigures!!! And from the only picture we have it seems very similar to last version, so why 20$ price increase, wtf!? And minifigure amount in sets has been horrible recently. Which fig is a selling point for this set? Repeat of Grievous or slightly updated Obi-wan? They could have easily made set more desirable with say 2 212 Clones and Cody(phase2) or magna guards( which were last released in 2009/10).
  11. Lego seems to be incapable of doing it this way. Last 2 Anakin and Obi-Wans starfighers had this headset print on both sides of the head, which really limits the use of the minifig. That’s why I don’t like headset prints.
  12. If LEGO will give Anakin appropriate head without stupid headset I think I will buy this set. I mean he doesn’t even wear it in the movies and cw that much.
  13. I guess 2 remaining knights, Chewie and FO stormie(2 if we are lucky) are in the Night buzzard.
  14. Doesn't sound that good to me considering they already made Santa Vader in 2014 calendar
  15. Exactly my thoughts. It's such an outdated concept that only kids love prequels and CW, and adults only love Original Trilogy! Think about it people, if you were say 7 when Ep 1 came out in 99, you'd be 28 now. How is that a kid? Most of PT/ Cw fans are in their mid/ late twenties now, and are fully capable of affording big and expensive sets based on material they love. Personally if Lego were to release UCS Jedi temple or Geonosis Arena I would buy those sets instantly as I love prequels/CW and was never impressed by all OT UCS and regular system scale sets recently. Lego is definitely missing on a huge market by not making more PT/CW sets.
  16. While I’m interested in Night buzzard set I am really surprised that its 70$ when Grievous starfighter is 80$(supposedly). What are they thinking? Buzzard is way bigger in universe then Soulless One, but is a cheaper and smaller set?! I seriously don’t get why LEGO insists on making small-ish vehicles into bigger sets over the years. Aat I am really interested though, given that it’s Separatists version.
  17. I second that. Ghost is long overdue a remake especially with rumors that Rebels sequel show is launching this fall, it would definitely be important part of that show.
  18. Well Raddus is from Mon Cala and is of northern subspecies of Mon calamari. Northern- cold- Raddus- Spaceships are cool!
  19. Is it The Raddus from Last Jedi?
  20. Childish Landino on Instagram just said that all summer sets are what we all wanted for some time, but also all are safe choices. I wonder what does he considers by sets we wanted. All prequel stuff? CW? A lot of unknown here.
  21. With all excitement over this news I totally forgot about Falcon and winter soldier set. Mu guess is its either another retail exclusive or one of Eternals set was mistakenly called this and actually I'd F&ws set.
  22. As long as minifigs have leg prints they should be good
  23. New Harley Quinn on 50$ set sounds cool to me, but trike?! No thank you.
  24. Btw Avengers tower sounds like it's inspired by Avengers 2012 movie with inclusion of Captain Marvel. Kinda goes along with rumored Iron Man 1 esqe set this summer. Are we really getting remake of some Mcu sets?
  25. Don't forget about Eternals sets! Now I am excited!
