Icons Landmark Buildings - Rumours and Discussion

9000+ piece count sounds fabulously optimistic. I would prefer an ancient version with minifigs myself rather than the modern ruin though that I suspect we'll get.- 259 replies

LEGO Star Wars 2020 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
TeufelHund replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Bespin Duel looks like they cut off a section from the Betrayal at Cloud City set and stuck it in a box. I guess Darth with shoulder printing is ok. Might get it if they package it as a freebie with the upcoming Moss Eisley set - will help reduce some of the sting of buying that by selling the bonus after on Ebay. -

Hopefully the next time they do a Death Star it's a completely new build and not a slightly modified reissue with updated minfigs. -

Hopefully they won't waste bricks on a landspeeder in a Cantina MBS, given they just released a new one. Would prefer some side builds of Moss Eisley architecture. Looking forward to some of the patrons especially a Hammerhead, Ponda Baba and Dr Ezazan. Hopefully they'll also include the Imperial spy dude. -

Don’t mind a redo of the Shuttle but was kind of hoping for a big playset. I guess they got burned by the reactions to Insult on Hoth and (to a lesser extent) Betrayal at Cloud City, but I’d love a MBS style version of Moss Eisley, Jabba’s Palace, Skariff Beach or even the arena from a Episode II. -
Saw a few copies of the Creator Pirate ship at a local store today. Thought about it but to be honest if you have any Pirates sets already it’s probably of minimal interest as apart from one new minifig torso there’s not really any exciting piratical pieces to be had. It’s mainly just basic bricks. The cheap 2015 Juniors set offered a lot more in unique pirate stuff (new torso, map, printed flag and jail cell).

Will definitely be getting the Night Buzzard. Shame they put one KoR in the Xwing though as I don't collect good guy ships and will end up with only 5 of the 6 unless I bricklink the missing one. Never got the original Final Duel as I already had the Death Star and didn't feel the need. This remake/reissue hasn't changed my opinion one bit. Maybe if they'd put in Moff Jerjerrod or some Imperial dignitaries instead of the Royal Guards. Despite not really liking RotS I would have preferred an Exegol Final Duel set as the figures and throne would at least have been interesting and new. Resistance ship does nothing for me - the figures look interesting but there are far too few for such an expensive set. Will get the Razor Crest as that looks great (no he's not a good guy!). Everything else is of no interest. -

Still can't believe 40 years has passed since my heart was ripped out in the cinema when I found out who Luke's dad was... I like the new ATAT (especially the cockpit that can fit two pilots and Veers), but already having the 2010 version that's not really enough to get me to upgrade. -

Instead of Gideon's Tie I'd prefer a full sized Imperial Troop Transporter. -

Not impressed by the A-Wing to be honest, but that may be more to do with me not liking the ship design that much (plus I prefer the brutalist design of the Imperial forces anyway). Happy to save my money. -
Lego SW encyclopedia in April: is it worth it ?
TeufelHund replied to macaron35's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Book is pretty disappointing as it only goes up to the first wave of the RotS sets despite being released months into 2020. Also would have loved a minifig lineup like in the Ultimate Lego Star Wars book because many figure variations are missing here. A decent book for kids I guess but otherwise not really worth the bother. -
Kind of preferred the aesthetics of the original set, although it is cool you can turn it into a classic pirate ship. All my pirates are from 2009, 2015 and PotC as I was in my Dark Ages when the original series launched and prefer the more modern torsos to the classic ones, but it will make a nice birthday present for me next month in any case. Not sure why they needed to give two of the pirates massive Mario moustaches either.

https://www.lego.com/en-au/product/the-razor-crest-75292 ...you're welcome! $199 though...:-( I love it but unfortunately so does my oldest son, so he may get it for Xmas and I'll just have to play with/admire it when he's not around. A bit strange they didn't give the scout trooper a speeder bike though - a bit of a tough ask for one solitary imperial trooper to take on the Razor Crest *and* the Mando and allies plus kids could then stick IG-11 on it if they wanted. Hopefully Lego will do a full-sized Imperial transport set with Moff Gideon and some Death troopers/Remnant Troopers (the Hasbro remnant trooper looks pretty cool: https://www.rebelscum.com/photo.asp?image=/2020/Feb20StoreReports-starwarssentinel.jpg). I guess a foldable tie fighter would also be cool but the vehicle has been done fairly recently. -

Apart from the MF, XWing and Speeder Bike set there's not a lot of screen time for any of the EIX set vehicles. Regular ties are featured more than the Sith ties and the BP vehicle is just something made up by Lego. -
I suspect they'll just go for the preexisting baby fig size or maybe do a custom bit of plastic like Salacious Crumb/Jabba's son.

After watching the Mandalorian I desperately need a fig. Hopefully he's included along with the Mando in a Razorcrest set.

As someone that usually only collects “Bad Guy” vehicles/figures I’m a bit disappointed they sneaked a Knight of Ren with an awesome helmet into the Xwing set. Still Jannah is a great fig so I might get it once it goes on clearance anyway. Sith trooper set is fantastic though. -

Will there be any Fallen order sets released? I seem to remember the Battlefront games and KOTOR Online both got some sets. -
The saddest part about revenge of the sith (IMO)
TeufelHund replied to GeorgeMendes's topic in Culture & Multimedia
The saddest part about Revenge of the Sith was that they wasted an entire movie on Baby Ani and Jar Jar Binks which could have been better utilised to show Anakin's *gradual* corruption and fall to the dark side. It just ends up seeming so rushed where he goes from dobbing in Palpatine to the Jedi and then a few minutes later kneeling before him calling him master. -
Castle - Fantasy Era (2007-2009)
TeufelHund replied to Captain Fortune's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
I cam out of my Dark Ages after my wife gave me a small Kingdoms set in 2010. Luckily I was able to track down most of the Fantasy era sets I wanted after that as they still weren't too expensive. My favourite is probably the Troll's Siege tower which just looks ridiculously awesome. I also liked the King's Castle and Troll Fort. The Market Village is a great set to but more of a straight medieval approach rather than fantasy - I preferred the Kingdoms Joust myself. 2013 Knights were pretty disappointing. I hated the "good" knights childish emblem although the "evil" knights looked ok. I hope this wasn't the last classic castle wave ever because I'd be pretty disappointed if it was. -
I came out of my dark ages fully in 2010 and even before then I had a couple of sets like the 2006 Star Destroyer. I'm happy for them to keep re-releasing old sets as I can always build up my storm/snow/scout trooper armies and if a new version of a set comes along with substantially better figs or build I just sell the old version and upgrade. Plus new versions of OT sets often come with unique figs not available beforehand. For example, the 2014 Cantina came with the Band but the 2018 version had the barkeeper but neither had both.

Why people want perfect box? for investment? or OCD?
TeufelHund replied to ks6349's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I keep them in good condition if I can because I sometimes resell old sets and the price is higher to some collectors if you can also include the box. -

Death Star Cannon Review: Can't say there's much about this set I like. The hood is ok but I'm sure I'll have tons of them before long. I guess the gun looks a bit better than I thought it would. He also has all the other Force Friday sets so hopefully we'll be seeing more reviews soon. EDIT: Here's another for you:
