LEGO Star Wars 2017 Pictures and Rumors
GryffindorResistance replied to Stash2Sixx's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Will all of the sets come out on Jan 1st? Or just the Rogue One sets? Also, does anyone know the US prices? -

I haven't read the forum in a couple of days. Can anyone tell me when the US sets will be released? -

Anyone have an idea of when the sets will be released in the U.S.? -

What can I say? The sets honestly look fantastic! Each set is full of greatly designed minifies and top-notch builds. The only one I think we could do without would be Yoda's star fighter, being it has nothing exclusive to it. On the other hand, the Rogue One sets are awesome as well, just disappointed we aren't getting Saw Gerrera. The Skiff, A-wing, and Y-wing will be day one pickups. The ships this time around are amazingly detailed, especially the Y-wing. I feel like the A-wing and Phantom will be the top sellers of the wave, mainly for the first classic Lando since 2008 and finally, a long awaited Grand Admiral Thrawn! Honestly, with this awesome of a wave, I can't wait to see what the summer holds. Most excited to see what they'll do for the Vader Transformation and Force Awakens sets. -

I really don't think we will get that. All of the Lego Batman movie figures are very over exaggerated and not like the traditional lego mini figure, so I really hope lego doesnt start doing that for all of them. Detail is great, but I feel like too much is a little overbearing sometimes!! -

It will def have Vader, Palpatine, anakin and a medical droid. I'm calling that now. And as for the Guavian set, my bet is we get Bala tik, 2 Guavians, one or two heroes from that scene, and a rathtar. They can't cheap out on the rathtar!! -

I love the new sets! The Y-Wing is really amazing! A first day pickup for me. The figures are perfect and I love the little utilities and power fixers that come along with it. Duel of Fates definitely could've been bigger, but how great is it that we can finally get the Phantom Menace main characters for $25?? Battlepacks are really awesome this time around as well. -

That's what I was thinking. If the summer's "Imperial Hovertank" is a cover up name for another Rogue One set, he will most likely be in that. Hopefully, this summer we get another Imperial TIE Fighter, because I really can't see us getting another hovertank, unless there are different types in the movie. -

I only have one problem with this winter wave of Rogue One sets - NO SAW GERRERA??? -

We probably won't be seeing images of the summer sets until the Toy Fair in January/February. -

In my opinion, I think a UCS Snowspeeder is a horrible UCS for it being the 40th Anniversary year of A New Hope. This Rebel Hanger better live up to our expectations!!!! -

We should be receiving images sometime this week or next week. I remember last year, we received the Force Awakens January images the weekend of Thanksgiving. -

In my opinion, this is the best Darth Maul figure we have gotten. The face may be "crazy", but the figure itself is definitely movie accurate and very detailed. We are very lucky to be getting three of Star Wars' most important characters (Darth Maul, Qui Gon, and Obi Wan) in such a small and cheap set. It could have definitely been better, somewhat like the Death Star Final Duel, but hey, whatever. Were getting so many sets this wave with some amazing figures for a good price, so I'm pumped nonetheless! -

Do we know what other rebels are in the Y-Wing besides Moroff and the Rebel Pilot? Are we getting Saw Gerrera and Admiral Raddus?? -

So are we getting Lando? Because the only possibility would have been if we got a Rebel hanger from Episode VI, but looks like we are getting the one from A New Hope? -

Where did you find out that info? If so, it'll be a great minifig! -

They should announce them closer to November or right when Rogue One comes out. That is when the 2016 Winter wave was announced last year. -

Would you guys rather a rebel hanger from Return of the Jedi or A New Hope? Which one is more likely??? -

GryffindorResistance replied to Stash2Sixx's topic in LEGO Star Wars
For the winter wave, we have these so far: - 4 Microfighters - 2 Battlepacks (Imperials and Rebels) - 3 Buildable Figures (Chirrut, Baze, and Shoretrooper) - The Phantom -Yoda's Starfighter - Desert Skiff - Duel on Naboo - Luke's Landspeeder - Bunker Battle - Y-Wing - Rebel Hanger? For the Summer Wave, it's rumored that we have: - 2 Battlepacks - UCS - Rathtar/Guavian Set - Quadjumper - Vader Transformation Chamber - Advent Calendar - 2 Freemaker Adventures sets - Unknown set nicknamed "Imperial Hovertank" For Fall: - Episode 8 sets -

If this information is true, the rathtar should definitely be in the Guavian set for $80. That would be a total tease if they didn't put one. Pretty excited for this summer wave if the source is reliable and I'm happy to see no rebels and very few Freemaker sets! -
I agree, we never see any thing from Ep. V except Hoth. I doubt the fact that kids don't know the movie, because kids that love Star Wars know all of the characters. I know when I was younger, and I saw a set with Vader or Yoda, I was psyched, so I really hope that they start balancing out sets between the OT, PT, ST, and Rebels.

Does anyone know if the minifies from the Duel of Fates set are different from the ones we got of Maul, Qui Gon, and Obi Wan in 2015? Same thing with the Landspeeder? I'll be really upset if Lego goes back to the original tan color of the speeder rather than orange. The 2014 one was almost perfect! -
Also, if the rumor about the 2017 Snowspeeder UCS is true, I feel that that is a horrible idea. For the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars in May, we should be getting something more iconic from Episode IV, such as The Yavin 4 Base (like said). Although the model ships are cool, I feel that they are never as great as the UCS sets with minifigs, such as The Ewok Village, Sandcrawler, Assault on Hoth, and Death Star.
-
Is it just me, or would you guys rather sets from the actual movies rather than Rebels? I know Rebels is a great selling point though, because kids love it, just like Clone Wars was.

There are a couple of sets that SERIOUSLY need to be made: - Jango Fett's Slave I ----- not UCS, a regular play size - Bounty Hunter Pursuit ------ with Zam Wessell and the airspeeders, being we haven't got one since 2002 and this is a classic scene - Rathtar Chase ----- hey, they pulled through and made the Rancor, so why not the Rathtar? Plus this leaves a spot for Bala Tik and the Guavians - ARC-170 ----- definitely due for an update - TIE Fighter/Interceptor/Bomber ------ updated, being they are the most classic villain vehicles of the Original trilogy - Yoda's Hut ---- We thought we'd be getting it this year but got the star fighter instead. - AT-AT ----- too soon for another? - Emperor Palpatine's Shuttle (Ep. III) ----- this would be awesome and can include a new damaged Anakin and some shock troopers - GEONOSIAN BATTLE ARENA!!!! --- this would be a lot to do, but I don't see why lego can't split it into 3 separate sets (each including Acklay, Reek, or Nexu). It would probably sell very well, being that people would want to complete their arena, thus buying all three sets, plus kids LOVE big creatures/animals in lego sets.
