Super unlikely. The set names for summer are already out.

@JDbricks aren't the landspeeder and skiff winter sets? If not how did we get their prelim images so early?

cough cough off topic! I got sent to the chamber for that so we might want to get back on track I really want to get Duel on Naboo, The Phantom, and the Y-wing. Battle on Scarif seems possible too

Ok thanks for the help

Oh, that's a real bummer... but even my metallic Yoda hilt has peeled a bit too, showing dull dots around. Is that normal as well?

By alternate build I meant did you stick to the pieces from the set, or use others? :)

Hi all! What do you all feel about Lego Digital Designer? Is it good or bad, and why? Feel free to comment below, maybe with a to indicate you like it and a to indicate the opposite I personally feel it's a great tool, it puts you in the seat of a LEGO designer, with a full palette of pieces and colors. Illegal connections aren't allowed, either, apart from glitches, and thus you can't use unstable connections that are used in some MOCs.

Is this an alternate build? If so, good job! If not, still good job!

Do chromed Star Wars hilts peel after a while? My 2013 Count Dooku used to have a chrome lightsaber hilt, but after much rotation the handle has become matte light gray. Is that normal?

Here are what I think are the play features: U-wing Microfighter: Shoot the two stud shooters and place the pilot in the cockpit! TIE Striker Microfighter: Shoot the two stud shooters and place the pilot in the cockpit! Y-wing Microfighter: Shoot the two flick-fire missiles and place the pilot in the cockpit! Krennic's Shuttle Microfighter: Shoot the two stud shooters and place the pilot in the cockpit! Rebel Troopers Battle Pack: Shoot the stud shooters, place minifigures into speeder/turret, battle the Empire! Imperial Troopers Battle Pack: Shoot the stud shooters, place minifigures into walker, pose walker's legs, crush the rebel scum! Yoda's Jedi Starfighter: Fold the flaps up in attack mode or fold flat against the wings! Shoot the spring-loaded shooters! Open the cockpit and place Yoda inside! Put R2-D2 in the back of the ship! The Phantom: Open the cockpit and place Blind Kanan inside! Place Chopper in the astromech droid socket! Open the ramp (maybe?) at the back and slide the crate in (hence the large bottom section)! Fold out the legs for landing! Duel on Naboo: Press the technic axle to swing aside the laser gate! Throw Darth Maul down the reactor shaft! Let Obi-Wan grab onto a handle in the reactor shaft (maybe?) and use the lightsaber catapult (or the Force ) to send the lightsaber flying towards Obi-wan! Battle on Scarif: Blow up the panels in the floor! Slide open the blast doors! Turn the lever and slide out the bottom portion to steal the Death Star Plans! Escape with the orange crate! Y-wing Starfighter: Drop the bombs on Imperial Targets! Shoot the spring loaded shooters! Pick up the LEGO maintenance build with the crane! Open the cockpit and put the pilot inside!

Yes. Sometimes we cannot blame the designer, sometimes it was the person who set what they had to design in which price range.

It's hard to satisfy us Lego fans I'm actually ok with plain stormies and less detailed death troopers. I explained the death troopers part above, and I can't possibly have half my stormtrooper army with pauldrons

What? I don't understand what he's talking about… Well I can speak Chinese OR… you could just use Google Translate

Oh well, that's too bad. He was always reporting leaks to us But @Stash2Sixx I guess y'all must have your reasons :)

I'm really loving the new sets. The preliminary images just didn't do them justice, especially Yoda's Starfighter and Duel on Naboo. Here's what I feel about the sets: Rebel Troopers Battle Pack: Eh, pretty cool. It's nice that you have two decent builds in one battle pack, but to me the speeder looks a little fat. I love the variety of the figures they provide. 3.5/5 for me. Imperial Troopers Battle Pack: Yay! Death Troopers! I'm glad that Death Troopers and OT Stormies are ready for army building! I personally don't mind that the Death Trooper printing isn't as detailed as the Krennic's Shuttle ones. To me, it seems like a good idea for LEGO to make a cheap, slightly less detailed, but more accessible version of characters like Darth Vader, and then for larger sets, add more detail. This way kids can play with their favourite characters but the collectors get rare figures too. I don't really like the walker in this battle pack, however, it looks a little unstable and unfinished. Still, I'm loving the figures, and for that, I give the set a 4/5. Yoda's Mini TIE Interceptor Jedi Starfighter: MUCH better than it looked in the preliminary images! They captured the cockpit bubble curve nicely in the set. However, a lack of new figures and the significant thickness of the wings let the set down, so it gets a 3.5/5 from me. Duel of the Fates on Naboo: Really, why didn't they go for a more sensible name? Anyway, I like this set, it looks better than in the preliminaries. What is that weird quarter wall on the side for, however? And I'm also puzzled by the pink bubble thing below… Obi-Wan's hair and Maul's freaky smile is a letdown, but otherwise the figures are good. I would have preferred if the laser gate was one whole piece instead of several bars, and the technic mechanism is a bit too obvious for me. 4/5 Thrawn Set The Phantom: Ooh! This set is great! I like the new blind Kanan figure and the set, while sticker happy, is good. However, what should have been the standout, Grand Admiral Thrawn, is in fact the letdown. While the hair is okay, I would have preferred Chancellor Palpatine's hair. Also, the questionable lack of red eyes is depressing :( and all in all, he doesn't really look like Thrawn. 4/5 Battle on Scarif: When was the last time we got a large flat area for figures to stand on? The new playset, coming in as Rogue One's Battle on Takodana, is pretty good. It's interesting that the whole front part slides out, and It's weird they'd reveal such a spoiler. However, the new Cassian Andor and Jyn Erso are meh, while the Scarif Shore Troopers are "okay". One more figure would have been nice. 4/5 Y-wing: The standout of the wave, with an excellent Moroff and Admiral Raddus. Strange that a stormtrooper is included, but the astromech is nice. It looks like the ship can drop bombs and shoot missiles! Figures are good, iconic and likely fun build, this set looks great. 4.5/5 But… where is Saw Gerrera? How are we supposed to make Rogue One animations without him?

Get the Killer Croc set and balloon escape. Scuttler looks weird

LOL! Just show off the figures and new TIE Advanced... done!!!!! Nooooooo!!! LEGO is trying my patience Isn't this irrelevant??

Has this thread died???

What is this thread about??

Yessss........ Hey Lego, I'm waiting!!!!

Thrawn, Blind Kanan, and Chopper are the figs in the set. Do you like Chopper?

Oh yes that's true. He's in the rebel hangar.

Oh. Yoda's starfighter looks terrible, while Duel of the Fates has too many technic elements exposed. The only set around that price which is attractive to me is the Phantom 2.0... at least it looks decent and comes with Thrawn.

Really?? Bunker Battle looks meh, Desert Skiff and Landspeeder are silly choices for rerelease, and Yoda's Starfighter and Duel of the Fates are SUCH letdowns...
