Commodore Thrawn

Woah! A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! I'm really excited for January, these sets sound great!!

I'm honestly surprised we still haven't seen the January Last Jedi sets yet. By this time last year, all the winter sets were officially revealed (including the Rogue One stuff).

Does the Royal Talon Fighter polybag use Star-Lord pistol pieces for the "feathery" design on the side of the ship? If so, that's a really clever use of parts! It would also be a really cheap way of getting a lot of those pieces!

There's a review on MadBrickReviews' channel of the Sandspeeder. Unfortunately, there's nothing new in the instruction manual

I know this is a bit early, but is it possible that the summer wave could be pushed back to August next year? I doubt they would release all of the wide-release sets in the first half of the year. It would also make sense from a marketing standpoint to push them back to increase sales for the Solo sets.

Would it make sense though? Is the Rebellion going to be in Solo? I still think they're in the Sandspeeder set. Two pilots we've never seen before in a two-seater vehicle we've never seen (in anything besides a scraped Kenner toy) before. Makes sense to me.

He just looks like he's in a strange pose holding his staff. He's probably watching Rey doing whatever she's doing. I imagine the set will probably just include Luke, Rey, and maybe a Porg. Unfortunately, that's probably true.

I hope so! Clearly someone has it, so I imagine they'll eventually leak the whole thing. It should be considered a crime against humanity to withhold something like that!

Honestly... I don't really like it. I'm glad we're finally getting him, but it just doesn't live up to my expectations. I never thought lego would use white as the base color for the figure. The hair looks good and the face looks good, except for the mouth. The mouth looks too small imo. The torso and leg printing is good, but the white kills it for me. Tan would have been much better. Also, the staff looks pretty weird. Maybe it'll grow on me over time. Maybe the figure was just over-hyped?

Seems like this isn't common knowledge, so I'll post it here. The Republic battle pack, Solo battle pack, Yoda's Home, the 4 Solo sets, the 2 Solo CCBS figures, and the Darth Maul CCBS figure ALL release in April (according to the leaked retailer catalog). Figured that would be more helpful than "1HY". They could be guesses based on leaks and speculation (possibly from this thread), but I could see it being real. For now, though, I'll just assume it isn't legit until a reliable source says so. They're not dual battle packs. They're assumed to be dual Microfighter packs (as in two Microfighters in one set). The Ahch-To set is 75200 (priced at €29.99).

More pictures of Ahch-To Rey, the Resistance A-Wing pilot, and the Resistance pilot with headset have leaked on Instagram. The pictures also show the backs of the figures. EDIT: They're now on a certain subreddit

My bet is on Major Ematt being in the Crait set (75202). It seems like the resistance is going to leave D'Qar and move to Crait in the movie, so Ematt will probably be on Crait as well. His inclusion would be similar to General Rieekan's inclusion in 75014. In fact, I'd say the whole set (75202) will be similar to 75014, since it's supposed to have a Ski-Speeder and the trenches from Crait. My thoughts exactly!

True, but retail exclusives usually aren't very big, so I'd be surprised if we got the 5 figures shown, much less more. But it could be a small set with a lot of figures like 70607.

We can't say for certain yet, but the figure looks real enough, and there are some other 2018 figures in the picture as well. And yeah, it would be a retail exclusive set. A new cantina would make sense, with the release of Luke's Landspeeder this year, and the Tatooine battle pack next year.

If the Wuher figure is real and we are getting another cantina set, this would've been a great opportunity to finally release figures for Dr. Evazan and Ponda Baba. But based on the surrounding figures in the picture, we won't get them. Missed opportunity!

My mistake! I must've misread your post. Sorry for the confusion.

@Catanas seemed to imply they were duel Microfighter packs. She hinted that the leaked blue pilots could be from them.

True, but I thought those were duel Microfighter packs. Unless... do you know something? Supremacy Microfighter? I hope so!

I think that's the question we're all asking. I thought for sure we'd get a Canto Bight set this wave, and I was really hoping the battle pack would come with at least one or two Praetorians, but since it's based on Crait, I doubt it. Summer wave it is then! I also doubt we'll get a retail exclusive TLJ set, as all of the new movie sets (TFA, R1, TLJ) have been wide release so far.

Oh, ok. My mistake! I don't know why I thought the Crait set was 75201, I should've checked! I'll edit my post. Sorry for the confusion!

75197 is a battle pack, presumably based around Crait. €16.99 75200 seems to be an Ach-To set (with Luke and Rey). €29.99 75201 is probably a set based around Finn (in disguise), Rose (in disguise), Phasma, and Executioner Stormtroopers, though this is just speculation based on the leaked Rose and Executioner figures. €59.99 75202 is a Crait set (probably with a Ski-Speeder and a build for the trenches). €79.99

Ah, ok. I completely understand. So 75202 is a Crait set? Good to know! Thanks for the info!

I'm confused. Your post implies there was more information in @Azani's post. I guess he edited it. Do you know what the original post said? I guess I'm late to the party

It's worth mentioning the shape of the boxes according to the retail catalog. 75197 is the usual battlepack shape and 75200 has similar proportions (mostly square, but slightly wider). But 75201 is the most interesting of the bunch. It's taller than it is wide. Maybe it's a First Order AT-ST? And lastly, 75202 is much wider than it is tall. It has similar proportions to the Darth Vader's TIE vs. A-Wing set from last year, not to mention a similar price. So maybe we are getting another A-wing vs. _____ set, as @Tidy guessed.
