Hmm, I can't agree.Han Hair by Matthew Bassett, on Flickr

C'mon, we all know that carbonate flattens the hair! So it's all good ;)

This looks so good! I'll never be able to look at the old Han hair in the same way again . While it would make total sense to us to include this new hair with every Han minifigure from this point onwards I wouldn't necessarily count on it, it depends on how many other exclusive minifig parts or exclusive new prints we get in the DS, if there aren't that many then I think it could be a similar case to UCS Slave 1 Boba's arm printing, just because TLG developed a new torso with arm printing didn't mean that they included it in every new set he appeared in! For a while this new hair could be exclusive to the new DS to make it more desirable to minifigure collectors... I guess we'll see. P.S. Is a new desert skiff confirmed for next year? will there be a new Jabba's palace to accompany it??

No polybag is mentioned or shown on the calendar. Also, with regards to the advent minifugures; I love the rusty little GNK droid!

Woohoo, yeah baby yeah! I was just about to post this but you beat me to it, so sometime in the next two weeks it'll be revealed... hopefully.

I fully agree. I fully agree.

When I read his post I wondered whether his comment on opinion 'being divided' might be a hint that the set itself will 'divide' aka a design that opens up to expose the interior? is that just me?

Personally I want nothing more than to discuss set details, but as primarily an OT collector there has been precious little to discuss recently, bring on the DS, I hope it makes all our dreams come true

Ha, love it, you and me, we gotta set that up... SDNC!

A huge part of collecting is the anticipation of the collecting, if we don't see the sets until a few days before or on the day of release then that removes a massive part of the enjoyment for me (perhaps I am on my own with this?) This isn't how to play the game TLG.

From LEGO's SDCC 2016 Press release: Star Wars™ LEGO Star Wars™ fans eagerly awaiting the upcoming film premiere of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will be thrilled to see an over 6- foot tall life-sized model of the film’s new Death Trooper™, which took LEGO Master Builders 349 hours to build and contains 27,202 LEGO bricks. So I guess that seals it! no SW mini-build this year :( or anything much to do with SW at all! it's all about superheroes it seems... boo! Fingers crossed for RO and DS peeks... but I'm not too confident after reading this official release. I am seriously mad at TLG right now.... don't they understand they can't neglect SW fans like this, if you're not interested in Rebels then its been since the winter wave since ANY official peeks!!! not good enough!

Does anyone have any intel on whether or not we can expect a new SW mini-build to be released at this year's SDCC? obviously there wasn't one at this year's celebration but then again we did get the Exogorth earlier this year. Last year's Dagobah was announced/pics released by early July (if I'm not wrong) so wondering whether there will be one at all? P.S. I know that RO sets and the new DS take priority but still, I do love the mini-builds!

which polybag?

i believe around 2.15pm gmt, but not sure if it is going to be streamed, if anyone knows where it can be watched please share the link.

Happy to delete if that's the common consensus.

I've had a request for the spoiler so I'll enter it below, while I think it's a fairly significant plot detail I wouldn't get too excited...

Did anyone else notice the spoiler that the actor playing Baze let slip during the panel? I'm not going to repeat it here, and I'm not sure how many would have picked it up with his very strong accent and limited english (oh and hats off to Gwendoline Christie for handling it perfectly by not reacting and moving straight on).

What're the chances they'll be revealing a new SW mini-build to go along with Tatooine, Dagobah and the Exogorth??

The Tatooine and Dagobah mini-builds were released at SDCC over the last two years respectively so I'm guessing it will be the same this year, if it was being released this weekend I imagine we'd have already seen it which is another reason I think it'll be released at SDCC, but there is always a chance there won't be one this year if the 'Escape from Space Slug' was the one for this year... I hope not.Hopefully celebration will see the release of the new DS or RO sets... OR BOTH! _ Translated from Promobricks.de 12.07.16 Update : LEGO Star Wars Snowspeeder (75144) Death Star (75159) Michael Friedrichs 12 July 2016 It currently looks very much as if the expected numerous fans rematch of LEGO® Star Wars ™ UCS Snowspeeder ( 75144 ) sets will go on sale until next year . For this assumption so is some : Among other things, the date of publication of the snow glider in Brickset database 2016 at 2017 has been changed . Also for the shift is the fact that the end of September , a whole new set of LEGO® building sets are coming to Star Wars ™ Rogue One on the market . Remake of Death Star in the starting blocks It looks better in the new LEGO® Star Wars ™ Death Star ( 75159 ) . My information about the new version is already in the starting blocks and is expected to arrive in October / November on the shelves . More details will follow soon .

What do you know? something... or absolutely nothing?

What he said!Oh, and also, is it just me or does it feel like FOREVER since we've had any real OT, ST or even PT news? I'm dying, someone, anyone, give me something to sink my teeth into!

Just saw the Disney castle on the brick fan website, the pics have now been removed, still... One step closer to the DS reveal!

Love the hood, love it! this BETTER be included in the new DS!

Is this real?! $200-250??? That's the same price as 75098! I really hope the new DS isn't a turkey, I can't see how they'll be able to do it justice as this price point, I had/have my hopes on a 10188 update.

Hasn't the DS been pushed back already, from summer 2016?
