Prequel fiend? I'm a prequel fan and proud!

I love good memories... those megaphones are cute but I don't have the old sets... so I made my own They are quite easy to make They look bad on droids but ok on figures (to me), except they are a little too short. About stud shooters, I am conflicted about them. I like stud shooters as cannons, in fact (like on Clone Turbo Tank) but put them in a figure's hand... nope. Chewie's stud bowcaster does look better than the usual fat stud shooters to me, however.

Yeah the speeder's a bit fat... Great review, great set. Now I can build it in LDD!

Yeah it's overpriced... broke my heart because I wanted it

Nice review! Set looks okay, but the Empire sure is stupid to put the Death Star plans right next to the bunker door... that's almost like asking people to steal it! Yeah, I know, it isn't like that in the movie, it's just the set :P Also I saw this before on your YouTube channel when I went to watch the Y wing video :)

I'm not too sure, but it sounds like it's fake... Also, does anyone know if the A-wing's flaps can turn in Vader's TIE vs A-wing?

You better hope she wears clothing 100% of the time! XD Same applies to all other characters... except K2SO...

Very true. I may make some by myself too :)

True Anyway, to those who don't like Lando's smile, he has an alt face, which is serious. Looks ok from what I can see. Raddus looks like a great, detailed minifigure. Comes in the great Y-wing too! I like Duel on Naboo... though the part Obi Wan hangs on to (a red stud) is a little too close to the wall for me... they should've removed the wall to give Maul more space... and that single curved wall looks weird anyway

These look good! Great job! Unfortunately I don't have a single Modular Building

But we're talking about the prices... which are related to the sets! Okay, I will stop, but prices are related to sets, so it's not off topic! How about phrasing it this way: A-wing's a little small for the price... (A-wing being the sentence subject)

NZ prices are up. Man, $89.99 for the A-wing? A bit more than I'd hoped. And $69.99 for the Phantom is a bit too much. Not sure what Desert Skiff ($69.99) and Landspeeder ($49.99) have going for them, as their piece counts are too low for those prices. Duel on Naboo for $49.99 is great though, and Yoda's Jedi Starfighter is good too at the same price. Battle at Scarif at $109.99, okay, but not great. Same price as Takodana... so minifigs could've been better. Y-wing at $129.99... alright. But not superb.

Gotcha. My eyes are deceiving me. I forgot they were two studs apart, that's why...

Wait... why is it that one spring loaded shooter is behind another on the ROTJ A-wing? http://i.imgur.com/OkunNB9.webp picture here

Not an expert, but maybe he could try selling on eBay with an online auction?

Oh yes! I have that tile and it kinda bugged me a little.

As I stated above, I quite like this wave. They DO have to make remakes for those who missed out, but perhaps they could have waited a couple of years. I think the reason we focus on the negatives is because we all love LEGO so much (don't we? ) so if we repeatedly shower praises there won't be much to talk about. However, despite everything negative I say, I still love these sets and may buy them if I get the chance. EDIT: Hmmmm... if you buy the landspeeder you can do a LEGO version of BLR's "Bushes of Love"! That kinda makes the set better, I guess... Too bad that Yoda's hut rumor was false, or else we could've done this too:

I knew it! I knew there was storage in the back of the Phantom! See my earlier hypothesis post... Yeah, we need a new Maul face. That face is... ridiculous. I noticed that too. Please LEGO... no more Hoth... especially after that horrible Assault on Hoth. This is the Episode VI version I think. Grey body and legs, tan hands, unprinted green pauldron. They should change the angry clone face, though. Make it resemble it (Boba is a clone), but not the same! It'd be very weird for them to leave out such an iconic feature... This overall wave is not too bad to me. Rebel Battle Pack is good. A speeder bike which is a little too fat, but a nice turret and good minifigures. Imperial Battle Pack is nice. Death Troopers and Stormies: Yay for army building! The walker is kinda filler though. Yoda's Jedi Starfighter is okay. Flaps too thick, but better than new molded pieces. I kinda like the cockpit and the way R2 sits. Duel on Naboo is pretty decent. The build is meh, but has good figures for its price. The Phantom is good. Nice blind Kanan, good build, cough cough red-eyed Thrawn... Battle on Scarif is decent. Great they give plates for you to place your figures, and blast open panels work well. Y-wing is nice. I like the ship, and Moroff and Raddus look good. A-wing is slightly surprising but I like it. They got rid of the shooter mechanism from the Rebels one, but that's okay, as that was hard to operate. We get two grey technic beams, however. Lando is mediocre. That smile is ok and the hair is good, but the orange torso... bleh. Desert Skiff is eh. The Sarlacc mouth is awesome but should sit lower down. Landspeeder is whatever. Too similar to 2014 version, no new minifigures, super low piece count...

Also, in the Resistance Troop Transporter, the back shows 3 medium blasters and 1 pistol, but the set contains 2 medium blasters and 2 pistols. Minor issue, but may confuse some.

Got Battle on Takodana recently Along with a free 30305...

Leia's vest is too bright purple in this [awesome] set, but it was probably due to the limited color palette

Yeah I noticed that too... they should have used the inverted arch piece

By leaks I meant info on upcoming sets... Don't recall him posting blurry info...?

Interesting! Never had a LEGO train before

Thanks for the review Bob! The set looks good!
