Yes, I hope Grogall can come through

I now believe the reason for releasing them later here in the U.S. is to coincide with the Phantom Menace 3D that was released February 10th.

Since the 2012 LEGO Star Wars Winter sets came out January 30th, (a month later than usual) could we possibly be seeing the 2012 Summer sets delayed as well? From what I remember, they always came out end of July here in the U.S. but could they be coming out mid to late August now?

Marvel sets in-stock on Shop@Home!! Link: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Super-Heroes-ByTheme (in stock by the way) I was also looking forward to waking up bright and early tomorrow but all Target stores are closed nation wide.

Palpatine's Arrest should be a TRU exclusive. I'm anxious to see at least preliminary images of the set.

I would love to see the new Phase II Clones in a battle pack. The old ones from 2007 are now sky rocketing in price.

Sorry about that. Won't happen again. Great images! This R2-D2 is looking like a must have set!

A remarkable find indeed. Beaten to it by seconds! It looks like a very interesting model and I really do like the third leg feature. It does add a lot more accuracy to the whole model.

Thanks! Let us know if you find anymore.

Jabba's Palace was already confirmed to be $119.99 still a bit overpriced but worth it.

Well we know that Pre Vizsla will have leg printing as it says "deco" written in marker on his left leg. By the way, does anyone know when we will get official images of all the sets. (with the white background around the pictures.)

Jabba's Palace will officially retail at $119.99 U.S. and contains 717 pcs. This comes out to roughly just under 17 cents per piece. oh well, this set IMO is worth it.

Sadly, it appears as though Princess Leia in Jabba's Palace does indeed have that Princess Tamina head. See Here:

Its really quite wonderful with all the brand new sets but correct me if i'm wrong, Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Gungan Sub doesn't have a new hair piece. If this is true, that would be a big letdown. However Queen Amidala in that set makes up for it 100%

Am I the only one that doesn't believe Jabba's Palace has over 700 pieces? Because it certainly does not look more than 500. With regards towards the Padme-Ahsoka change, I agree with the decision however I would think little kids would like to have a new Ahsoka rather than Padme. However, Padme was featured in the Malevolence arc more than Ahsoka.

Just found out some relieving news! The Commando droids are dark grey instead of that bronze color. Here: http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=260921763593&index=2&nav=SEARCH&nid=11397318810

While browsing auctions on eBay I found this. ARC Trooper Hammer with red clone trooper gear! It appears as though we will get red visors and range finders. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Star-Wars-9488-Elite-ARC-Clone-Trooper-new-loose-/260921765360?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item3cc0262df0

I would suppose so because Hasbro is also releasing their products on January 30th so I would assume that Lucasfilm has put an iron fist on the new product release date.

Summer sets look very promising! Jabba's Palace looks extremely well done especially in the minifigure department. Rumor has it that the 2012 Winter sets will be coming out December 26th here in the U.S. if this is true, then TLG has really been holding out on their release.

They are usually released a week before Christmas. (at least on toysrus.com) There is a pattern for LEGO's product releases. Anyway, This looks to be one of the strongest Winter lineups to date. Really excited for the new TIE Fighter, BPs, and Geonosian Cannon.

Wow! New 2012 LEGO Star Wars Summer sets! All of these seem plausible. Hopefully we get a Weequay or two with the Desert Skiff and a redesigned Lobot in the Cloud Car. Jabba's Palace is the one to watch out for. Question is: Is it a Battle of Endor or a Hoth Echo Base?

I am thinking that the B-wing will include minifigures and the ones that should be included are Admiral Ackbar, Ten Numb, and maybe General Madine. Either way I am really excited for this set and am interested in how they will make the wings move. Hopefully it will use the same mechanism as the 10212 Imperial Shuttle.
