I had the same question, I think patience is the key, it'll appear on Amazon sooner or later. FN-2187

I couldn't agree with you more! I would love, but doubt we'll ever see anywhere near that many minifigs even in a Mos Eisley set, even if it were UCS.

From written reports (and you can just about make out from the recent pictures) new articulated leg parts have been created for the Luggabeast (I'm assuming with an eye for reuse wherever possible) also the underside of the body looks like it could be a single piece with the ability to build on top of it. Yuck!

I personally prefer the pearl grey/flat silver minifies as opposed to actual chrome, I think Phasma looks great as she is. Because it is blue! Dark blue would be too dark and just as inaccurate, sand blue would be too light, the actual colour is somewhere between all three but I understand why TLG have gone with medium blue, some variation in the colour might have been nice though, I can't wait to see some more detailed pics, soon hopefully. I hope it is different from the Slave 1 set. Sand wouldn't have worked as the main colour, but I will agree a little sand blue chucked in there would look good. This isn't so hard to understand surely!? Where do we see Teedo? 'Sitting' on the Luggabeast. Its obvious that he should be a small minifies, but TLG have prioritised functionality over dimensional accuracy. Bring on small moveable legs!!!

Simon Pegg, and no, Unkar will be normal height, Chewy/Gamorrean at the tallest.

Yup, some great fan mocs but not the real deal, the distinguishing feature of the real set will be the new moulded & articulated legs! so excited for this set!

But there have been two sets since 75103 that have included at lease one TFA stormtrooper, so it makes sense to include another flametrooper in this set. I wouldn't be so sure about not getting a different version of Rey in this set, it's not probable, but possible, what about including the old rebel helmet that she has on just prior to rescuing BB-8? I am very excited about 'Encounter on Jakku' especially Unbar, Teedo and the Luggabeast! I knew we'd get the beast at some point but am very happy it is so soon... however... I'm a little concerned about the scale of the beast. I have heard unconfirmed reports that it is 15cm in length, 15cm!!!! if that is true it is WAY to big. The Luggabeast should be roughly the same height and width as the Dewback from 75052, the Dewback isn't even 15ch in length and it has a tail for goodness sake. When Rey stands next to it she is almost as tall as it which would be way too small so it is not going to be exactly to scale, but considering Teedo is most likely going to have short legs, making the beast too large will dwarf him and the entire thing will look stupid. I hop TLG have done a decent job of scaling the Luggabeast and that the reports of its size are incorrect.

Hi Guys, If any of you in the UK like me have been watching 75139 'Battle of Takodana' and 75140 'Resistance Troop Transport' (or any other Lego set or sets totalling over 50 quid) on Amazon, and waiting for their prices to drop to a more reasonable figure then now is a pretty good day to grab one... Amazon has a deal for today only (22nd Jan) if you use the code 'BIGTHANKS' at the checkout you'll get a tenner of an order of over fifty! 75140 has just dropped to 57.94, so in total you'll get it for 47.94! a saving of over 20% I know this isn't technically about a rumour or picture, and sorry to those outside the UK, but I just wanted to spread this time sensitive deal amongst my fellow fans, I will delete this post tomorrow.

Yup, the London Toy Fair has been moved this year so it doesn't coincide.

Ha, brilliant!

They don't say anything about photographic memories though!

After Star Wars sets, CMF series 16 is my top priority to get as much info as possible for when I'm at the London Toy fair week after next.

Found them in my local Asda today, got the lot! Among my favourites are: Faun Wrestling Champ Frightening Knight Okay, on to series 16...

Whoop Whoop! I'll be down to WHS tomorrow!

Give LEGO customer services a bell, an exclusive minifig from a pricey set like this deserves to be better quality, even if the hair covers it, that is pretty bad. Ha nice one, me too, I was hoping to spend more but the winter wave did not arrive in time.

I agree, then TLG can use the evil genie as a CMF, as Jafar was so tall and thin I'm interested in seeing how he turns out.

Love it! so colourful.

OMG that hotdog bun is amazing, I can't wait to see it used in a CMF series, I want one for my HotDog guy!

Same here, I wonder if the original set will be worth more in the future, even with it's 'issues'.

I am so excited by the quality and improvement in the graphic design of minifigures and decorated parts, the set is a great example!

Is it down for maintenance, are they adding new stock parts not before available?, I've never used the PaB service, I will look forward to see what they've got in a few days.

Jafar in Genie form would work, Alexandre Boudon produced this a few years back, the good genie has already been produced, it's whether TLG want to save 'Evil Genie' in a future CMF series or not.

Ooh, great thread, I'll have to get my wish list together!

Agree 100%, it's both good and bad, good that there is such a wealth of characters untapped for the future, bad that they are created so slowly, I suppose TLG don't want to use them all up at once, and hey, lets face it, the anticipation is sweet!
