Agent Kallus

I suppose they could have it be an unnamed extra Hobbit that's clearly meant to be him but isn't labeled as such like Gloin in the Rivendell.

Maybe they could have Nob as a background character in the the inn?

You're lucky they don't still do comic con exclusives... __________________________________ The returns batmobile has appeared in the Usual place, I don't collect the big scale batmobiles though (I mean they are kinda cool if money wasn't an object... But it beth much is) so this doesn't do much for me. Looks like closed batman is the only fig. Though the cloaked fug making it to the magazine isn't impossible so I'll cross my little legoman claws for that.

I suppose that's true but we have only seen one planet from the outer Galaxy so far. I agree it would've been cool if the non-Nightsister inhabitants were more 'alien' even for aliens. I wouldn't be surprised if there an Animated D+ thing too though, a crossover comic hardly seems like the thing they'd prioritise sets for when they don't even cover normal starswars comics and give us characters like Aphra or Boolan or Avar let alone even cover recent animated non-Lego shows like the later seasons of Bad Batch, Visions, tales or Maul Shadow lord!! ____________________________ In other news apparently some of the 'smart' play sets have been delayed/cancelled, the Ewoks one, the Boba Fett one and a Hoth one that isn't the AT-AT And there part counts for the star fighter sets, two in the seven hundreds and the big one is in the fourteen hundreds. So no small sets there! And I thought we were seeing a positive trend with Minecraft and Mario's 2027 line ups!!!

Has not that always been case? Comic superheroes and their stories are a bit ridiculous by nature, it's part of the fun IMO.

We also have prices which thankfully are mostly at the lower end of the spectrum. Pipe jump is $10 Mario's kart is $15 Beach one is $20 Luigi and Bowser Junior karts set is priced at $30 Fire Luigi V Koopa Trooper is also $30 Mario's House is $40 Bowser Kart set is $60 Bowser Castle with cFire Mario is $100 6 sets at $40 and below is a good price spread to see especially for 2020s TLG

Honestly larger scale is the reason people not showing up in the OT makes sense to me anyway. A Galaxy is a damn big place. Personally I'd prefer recasting to deepfakes. On the set front, if they did do Ahsoka season 2 sets (which unfortunately aren't a given) I hope they'd do a moulded Loth-Cat

This a great Modular, the bus stop is a fun addition too.

Jokerised Clones pack yoke and joke NR Compforce pack Baroque and Artichoke (dip) Not a want but a need. I hope Rotta's resurgence means they might Slip young stinky in one of the obligatory CW jedi and clone sets.

We want a 501st battlepack Smoke and Broke (actually I do like getting them but they've almost gone too far the other way) We want a Nightsisters battlepack Woke and Bespoke

Amen to this. That trailer was insane, I am hyped. (The Loth kittens concept art was cuter at celebration then the actual models shown a D23 but I digress) The lack of Lego coverage is awful especially considering the Ahsoka season 1 wave was great (the only time I've bought a whole wave (minus the Chewbacca) at release but I probably won't do that again I'd got a bonus but even if I want a whole wave discounts are inevitable and so should be waited for!) probably too optimistic to hope for spoiler sets in the summer but I can't help it. Also did the guy in the snowy force vision look like Galen Marek to anyone else? I do hope this movie is leading into the previously announced 'Mando-verse' culmination movie but with Lucasfilms current track record that movie might not still be happening. Praying to the force they use Shadow Lord season 2 to correct this. Previous season sets released on Netflix season hype isn't a new tactic.

I think they've more been lazy because they can, he's a guy in a suit and they have plenty of suits, but this outfit is different so hopefully if they did it they'd do it right. A green suit would be nice but both the Xaviers so far have been generic so not needed specific detail. Doc Strange MoM wasn't my favourite movie (and they should've used Ioan for the Illuminati) but they could easily make a green suit Professor X for that scene with the Picard head too. (Though knowing how much they like using the MoM Strange where it doesn't fit they might reuse the mansion Xavier) Vision quest looks fun, I hope Ultron is brought back fully. Vision might be the powerhouse Sam's Avengers needs I could see them hiding him from the doomsday trailers so as to not spoil this show? This probably is the better Doomsday trailer too but I can agree that the 'hell answers to me' line read feel off and there's less X-Men here but the new cast for the new film sounds promising.

I think it could work, and if you do do a Jango be sure to share it here on EB!

For the missing types, I believe there was a leak saying that next year we'd get smart play set with Riolu, Croagunk, Lavitar, The Scorbunny line and More Eevelutions. That covers fighting at least (but not Steel though Riolu is close because they get it when they evolve into Lucario).

I've made a quick mock-up of what option 2 could look like to me, with the various Alt brands within sub forums of one alt brand forum (Obviously there'd be more than those 3, it's just to demonstrate how it could look) rather than more than doubling the number of forums with option 3.

I mean that was sort of the point, he mentioned 'the worst piece of Star Wars media' and for me The rise of Skywalker takes that cake and I've seen every Canon Show and Movie, Read dozens of Canon books, several legends books, a fair few comics, The OG clone wars and even most of the toddler show and TroS is my least favourite of all. So we agree there! I mean I've been basing sets on books in the wishlist thread, I think an Acolyte set or two is more likely than those... And hey I've supported your ideas set (ignore that almost every ideas set I like doesn't make it, even if gets 10k is killed at the picking zone) I don't know if they've done it and I don't have the file but there is a section in the forums for digital Lego and they do have a thread for official sets built in LDD (it's probably slowed down with more sets relying more and more on post LDD parts, though fan updates do exist for LDD) and there might be a similar one for stud.io in that section too? I mean I did mention all of those things as things that TLG had unfairly snubbed, partly thanks to the traditional set range being diluted by display sets and experiments. Acolyte was hardly even my main point it just got singled out because of it's unpopularity. (And while I still do like the shoe they did mess up big time on how they portrayed Vern in my opinion) While I disagree with putting it above Acolyte, you have successfully highlighted the uh highlights of the film. Palps being there doesn't make sense but Ian is so fun as Palps that it's (almost) forgivable! And Babu is Babu Nuff said

My whole point is that it shouldn't be an either or if they did less random experimental lines they'd have more resources to cover everything. (Also The Acolyte is 1000 times better than TRoS but this isn't the media thread so I'll look over that point) Yes, thank you I concur, though I still think the lack of shadow lord coverage sets a disappointing precedent.

These plus a CMF for a few Missing characters and some TLoK characters would be a dream come true. Azula, Korra, Kyoshi, Amon and the Cabbage Merchant and all Musts! Suki, Ty-lee, Mai, Jet, Tenzin, Avatar State Aang, Roku and Zaheer could round out a CMF too but alternative outfits for the main cast are another option like thier fire nation clothes. And Considering the eclipse tomorrow, maybe a day of black sun invasion set too.

Seen some more 2027 rumours 3 presumably legends set of an Oni Mech, A dojo and an earth mech. The Dojo sounds like the one that had grainy images leak?

I feel like this is a bit of an overreaction. I mean people will definitely want this, kids especially which makes it a shame that it's in a set far from the pocket money section. Talking about money it saves me some for other sets too! I could be cruel and say that it's good because you won't be missing out if you don't shell out for UCS but really even if it's the worst movie it's still a bit of a bum move to lock a part of a collection like this in what might be a £1000 set. It's no skin off my back because I'm not intending on collecting the posters (though I'll probably end up with a few from the sets I want) but it's still scummy. I didn't mean that Andor and Book of Boba Fett had no sets I know they got some sets but that they also have major things missed. As for the Acolyte, regardless of what others think I do wish they'd covered it.

I can't tell which thread is which anymore they're both discussing it and with at least 50% of the same people! Oh, well hopefully you still understand what I mean about the increased number of diverging set lines forcing the more traditional sets to focus on only the lowest common denominator. Another OT falcon is inevitable, unlike sets for things like Shadow Lord, Book of Boba Fett, Andor and the Acolyte where they should've struck when the iron was hot so to speak. Technically my OT falcon is a modded TroS one but it's close enough and I got it on a good discount and already had the OT Crew to go with it. I thought it was super obvious I used it ironically to drive home the point of how overused and meaningless it has become Maybe I should‘ve layed it on even thicker then Use it like the spacebar to show how it means absolutely nothing now. Probably too erotic for TLG.

That almost is the problem for me. I don't care that were unlikely to see a normal new OT falcon in the next few years because I already have one and I can't help but assume a lot of us do... The problem to me that because TLG is using the rest of the slots on experiments and displays scale stuff that for actual regular sets they on focus on a very shallow puddle of the most iconic OT things and an even shallower pool of CW/Episode 3 things. If they won't even make Shadow lord or TBB S2/3 things where's the chance of Tales, Ninth Jedi or Visions getting covered. Live action projects like Solo, Andor and Ahsoka are missing major pieces and don't get me started on the Book of Boba Fett! It's the lowest common denominator type stuff we get, even some stuff from OT gets shafted, it's been 12 years since the last B-wing and withe Clone wars stuff they don't want to dive a little deeper to do new and interesting stuff and characters like the Nightsisters with thier sanctum or the Syndicates or the pirates with Thier tanks and saucers. If they can't even bother to do a set or two for current projects like Shadow lord or the Ninth Jedi then wheres the hope for other series like Rebels or games like JFO, Outlaws or KoToR? Also you can't call it slop, you've got to be the change you wanna see Call it trite or detritus or filth or rubbish or...

Here I was hoping it'd be a set to go before the modular and bleed some figures like the X-Jet or the Gargantos set who both had all but one of thier figs reused in thier following big Modulars.

I mean Luke's exclusion in the falcon set makes sense. It don't make sense to exclude him from the overall crossover (so maybe there's another set) but Luke is less associated with the Falcon than Han, Chewie, Leia and Threepio because he's only really on the Falcon in ANH where's as the those guys are with us ESB and Even A little in the Sequels (at least I think Leia gets on it in the sequels, I haven't watched them as much because I don't like them as much). Though admittedly by that Logic R2 should be with Luke but maybe there actually is another set (shame to make the only crossover set an expensive one) and it's Luke V Vader. Maybe Wolverine Luke Vs Magneto Vader? Or if they want to keep the parentage thing Star Luke VS EGO Vader? Spider Luke is probably more likely as they seems to want the biggest star wars heroes as the biggest star wars heroes and EGO isn't that big anyway maybe goblin Vader? Or Thor Luke V Loki Vader that was keeps the relation a bit, and the redemption and you could even include Odin-wan Kenobi though them making that before actual Odin would be funny. Also why are people calling the princess Leia as Cap a Captain Carter Variant. Surely it's not Leia as Peggy as Cap it's just Leia as Cap. I do think Leia makes the most sense to be Cap too as she the original rebel of the OT Gang and the rebel symbol would look great replacing the Star on Cap's uniform. But look at it from the star wars side Leia is one of main heros of the OT cast and is very very popular. Gender swapping her would be weirder than swapping cap and matching the personality and vibe of the characters is more important I think. Anyway I get the idea that's it's like putting star wars characters in marvel suits with marvel powers because they have the iconic supersuits. Exactly. OT cast * Avengers probably wouldn't include Mando or a Random Z lister spider-sister. No kid is 'gonna go wow oh wow princess Leia is now Teresa Parker' if you think Leia has to mash over with a female spy character then black widow is right there! Though I still think Cap's a better fit. At least somebody watched it... 'of course I know him he's me' So when I saw i don't think there was anything inappropriate I speak from experience though Lego can inconsistent about these things and there something in it they wouldn't love. As for for the show itself it's alright, fun but nothing crazy mind blowing or anything. Yeah, I agree. That's what I was thinking of, like a BNW spoiler set of peters attic apartment maybe with the corner shop below it selling shark fire and flowers with the van as a sidebuild. Include some spoilers characters, reuse Scorpion and Spidey add in some ninjas and boom.

I mean Hobbie was a bit of a break out star of 'Across the Spider-verse' it is a bit of a curve ball choice but one I can respect, he was very cool in that film. The scene were miles is trapped and everyone one else is just arguing over him and Punk looks at him and shows him the palm trick again *mwah* absolute cinema! Talking about breakout stars I hope Beyond gets us another Noir produced, yes he had the separate Live Action project but unlike Deadpool or punisher I don't think it's got anything too inappropriate in to stop another Lego Noir from being produced Though honestly after how prominent he was in Brand New Day I wouldn't be surprised if we get a Frank's Van side build(complete with Frank himself) in future modular or mini modular , though I still don't imagine he'd headline a set himself with his reputation. The Bugle figures is good enough for me though.
