  1. Back in 2007 (a great year for lego Star Wars in my opinion) Lego released some ads to promote the first wave of sets, which included the first ever battle packs. However, they had to put the Clone Trooper battle pack in an ad featuring OT sets, considering the Droid one was done in a different ad. To get around the difference in the eras, Lego decided in the ad to give the stormtroopers clone markings and have them ride the speeds. For a few seconds at the start you can see a Imperial Shocktrooper leading the charge: Years later EA feature shocktoopers in their Star Wars Battlefront game, and lego makes them as figures!: It's a pretty crazy coincidence that amuses me greatly, i had to share it! Here is an image of the troopers using the speeder:
  2. Your custom figures are really neat! If only lego did duel moulding for star wars... I would love to see other designs!
  3. Updated Rebel Fleet troopers would be great, especially with their presence in Rouge One and Battlefront 2.
  4. So those pins on each side of the base are going to link together to create a bigger base? Neat set up, the build looks great! I think the green baseplate at the front needs a bit of decorating, to make it look less bland though. I suppose that would bump the piece count up a bit, i suppose.
  5. Are you going to build this beast when it is done? It looks like it's going to be a heavy model!
  6. I mentioned earlier, Lego probably should have stuck to a universal mouth print for all the FO stormtroopers. It would be like Lego deciding to change the printing for the OT stormtroopers to mach the difference in the armour for each movie, Like a full black mouth print for stories from empire and jedi. Either way, need a Phasma considering i missed out on the first. Nice to see those spear pieces return!
  7. Clones march through the remains of some droids after a battle...
  8. I doubt it. If the FO is using imperial AT-ATs alongside their new AT-M6 it is highly possible that the Heavy Scout Walkers would be used alongside AT-STs.
  9. With the TLJ trailer out, there seems even more opportunities for new sets. Might even be an excuse for lego to re-realease AT-STs and AT-ATs with First Order upgrades.
  10. Interesting that they changed the mouth for the FO Executioner to match the slight changes made to the TLJ Stormies. I don't mind, but it probably would have made more sense to keep it the same as the other troopers for consistency, considering they stuck with the TFA prints in other sets. It would be like having different prints for the OT Stormtroopers to match the differences in the armour for ANH, ESB and ROTJ.
  11. Someone will need to design one first. Possibly even larger then this plus-size one! Though, that might make the build difficult...
  12. The FO shuttle pilot seems to be just a regular first order fleet engineer with his helmet flipped up. A bit like how the Scout Troopers helmets work. All the details seem to fit.
  13. Did anyone notice the Tie Bombers in the background of the Heavy Scout Walker's box art? Also, interesting the the the FO officer that comes with the Star Destroyer comes in the gun-metal colour rather then the usual bluish-grey. He also has additional red printing on his hat.
  14. I think one of the big questions is.... who will be the first to buy and build this beast?
  15. Yet another gem to the lego Imperial Star Destroyer moc fleet. Excellent work!
  16. I like the new designs and sets. The heavy walker interests me in a sense of how it is designed. It seems obvious the First Order has learnt from the mistakes of the Empire. The heavy front legs seem good for climbing, and have spikes of the front for possible cable cutting. With the legs also bending inwards instead of outwards like a AT AT, it seems the walker will be able to get up again after falling over. However, the set i want to pick up is the Star Destroyer, since they have always been my favourite spaceship.
  17. Imperial officer. I'm so sorry Uncle Palpy
  18. Bith all the way. That rebels stormtooper just doesn't cut it.
  19. Imperial Crew. I know he won't win, but I'm an empire supporter.
