good catch, but yeah the sandcrawler still should be around $150

Something I am surprised not many people on this forum notice, while speculating on set prices, is the size of the boxes. Having seen the leaked catalog, i can say with relative confidence that the summer sandcrawler will be a roughly $150 set, due to the box size of 480x378x94 millimeters, which is the exact size of both the 2015 Falcon and the 2017 Gorrila walker, both sets retailing at $150. The new X-Wing has the same box size as both resistance X-Wings, and also the Y-Wing. I'd bet that it will retail for $80, given the box's size of 480x282x61 millimeters, but i'm hoping for the sake of my wallet that it will be $60, like the Y-Wing. given the recent price hike on 262x191x72 sets (such as Ahch to) from $25 to $30, Anakin's Delta 7 probably will be $30, also.

Some sets that I wish Lego would release in the near future: 1.) A system scale Venator-class Star destroyer without Palpatine's office taking up most of the interior space. 2.) An updated system-scale Slave I (preferably episode V) with a complete overhaul of design. The Slave Is from years past have basically just been improving on the 2002 Ep.2 set, so a fresh redesign would be awesome. 3.) Luke v. Vader, cloud city. I'm surprised that such a famous and memorable scene has been so grossly unrepresented in Lego. 4.) An updated Vulture droid, but without a cockpit (what were they thinking!?) and scaled correctly, which would be a 15$ set at most. Either a tan Ep. I or a CIS blue droid would be fine.

The Jedi council Ideas set was not approved by TLG in the latest Ideas review, unfortunately.

The constraction speeder looks amazing! Hopefully Vader transformation is reasonably priced.

While looking at the preliminary pictures of the Vader transformation set and the Republic Hovertank set, I noticed that the box size is 262 by 191 by 61 mm for both (the image of Vader transformation is very blurry but you can still make out the numbers) which is the exact box size of 25 USD sets from the past few waves.
