Hoth Rebel

Pictures (leaks) are out on Instagram.

Very nice work! Which legs did you use for Thor and arms for Luke Cage?

Are there any Yellow legs with dark blue dual molding or print on the lower half? Or dual molded arms with flesh/dark blue? I did a quick search on Brickset but couldn't find any.

Sorry for the necrobump.. But has anyone, who received it, the LDD file that flailx shared? I mainly need it for the underside of the car, but if someone could reengineer it from the Flicker photo's then that would also help a lot :)

I will just buy the ship for if Mario minifigures ever come to be.

I like the fact that it can be mounted to the wall without modifications. It can been seen on the box.

Since this is finally out I can tell you that more information will follow next month. That's all I know about for a few months now, but if the figures look like the teaser this will be disappointing for me.

This is very, very soon for them to release them. The design process usually takes, as many already know, more than a year to get from nothing to a set on the shelves. They simply want to get onboard with the hype and put a Mando set as soon in stores as possible. So it could be possible that the design for the minifigures changes a bit and what we see at Toy Fair and in the announcement will be some sort of prototype version. The pre-orders are an indication for Lego how much they should make instead of a regular release which have standard production number.

hmmmmmm..

Imagine the 2015 AAT in the 2009 AAT colors and you have yourself a small CW set for this summer. Also the General Grievous is an updated CW (tan) version instead of the white most recent one.

Probably not because they have the names of the shops in the watermarked images. That's why the other leaked images were blurry.

That's also exactly what it looks like in the prelim pictures.

Is the Raddus something that would make a lot of people happy? I know something from 2014 would.

The biggest summer set has nothing do to with the prequels though. The setting is much cooler than that

There won't be. I also like Batcentric vehicles if they're making sense in universe, but what is coming this year is really stretching it imo.

It's always possible, but I'm 99.99% sure it's not. The price is indeed $/€80. Personally I think this is just another overpriced set with no desirable minifigures (expecting they will include the trooper in future, cheaper sets), but that's kinda what SW is for the last few waves. However there is something coming (regular set) that's going to satisfy a lot of people.

It's a new variant/outfit. Don't recall if it's 212th.

The reason why people / leakers say they feel sorry for DC fans is because all the minifigures are existing figures (some with new suits, but whatever) and the builds are even worse than before. At least 3 Batman sets are coming this summer. Maybe there is one new figure but a stand-in figure was used.

The Grievous set leaked because it was the only set in the catalog that had a picture. Also, there is no Commander Cody.

When is this wave suppose to come out? August or is this an earlier release?

Thanks, that actually looks pretty good.

Does anybody has the old Two-face figure (Black/white suit) and the head of the new Two-Face (2019) and can show me how it looks?

Ah no, I'm not saying it all has to do with the sequel trilogy, just that nothing from those movies sell (for Lego and other toy companies). I agree that all the other stuff that came out is just as dull as the new movie sets. I don't think it's Lego's fault that they didn't made enough Mandalorian sets as Disney was playing their cards close to the chest so maybe they were only allowed to make 1 set. You can also see this with other toy companies that there wasn't enough on the shelves during the release and Christmas season, because I guess Disney wanted to avoid spoilery things. I also don't think this year will be great. Maybe the recent poll for the UCS changes things a bit, but that's probably a one-off. To be fair Lego probably (quite sure) has to put out a lot of stuff regarding upcoming movies instead of making OT/PT sets. So I don't necessarily blame them although I do wish they update their minifigs to a new standard with each figure having at least printed/molded legs and the more expensive sets having arm printing.

A Pirateship is coming in the Creator line this year. It has brickbuilt sails and will cost €99.99. Source Nuremberg Toy Fair.

Star Wars isn't in the top 7 top selling themes of 2019 (source: German Toy Fair, Zusammengebaut). Not really suprising, but interesting nonetheless. New trilogy stuff from every company doesn't sell well, but SW has always been one of the best selling themes for Lego. Top 7 is in no particular order Architecture, Ideas, Harry Potter, City, Disney, Ninjago and Technic.
