I love this. I'd love to have instructions for the building on the left.

It's possible, but personally I doubt it. It just seems like it's not a very popular ship. I also doubt it would be much better than the 2014 version. Coincidentally, I'm actually working on Kozikyo86's B-Wing right now. It might be worth looking into MOCs if you're really interested in a B-Wing.

I'm working on getting the parts for one of the TIE Interceptor MOCs, either Kozikyo86's or barneius'. Are there any major differences? Is one more correct with the proportions? I know the roof part for Kozikyo86's is ridiculously expensive.

I hate to bump, but Stardust or MAG85, if it's not much of an issue, could you post blown-apart pictures of the wing joints and body extension? I'm planning on putting my Sentinel back together and I'm really interested in those two mods.

I'm not sure what the standard for "officially released" is. It doesn't release in the States until January 1st. What they consider official and okay to list the parts might be regional, or the latest date.

With the new TOS, new parts can only be sold after they're officially released. :( Also, I believe Studio files will be changed so that licensed ones can no longer be downloaded, but I'm not 100% sure.

I'd love to see the normal Resistance version! Also, a parts list and some instructions would be great if you could upload that. I'd love to put one together and have all three.

Along with the TIE Dagger and Sith Trooper battle pack, this is one of my most anticipated sets. I love the design changes and the color scheme isn't that bad to me. I'm going to wait for a sale, but if it's anything like the last few waves, it should happen immediately. I can't wait for the inevitable color swap so I can have both of Poe's X-Wings in the new design (and probably a normal Resistance one too!).

Brickset and the Brothers Brick reviews mentioned that it's in the inventory, but it's not actually used in the set. It's the first time I know of that it's happened.

I really like the Ep. IX sets. The FO battle pack and X-Wing are both great and the Dagger is pretty good. I'm definitely waiting for a sale though. On the other hand, Mustafar is such a disappointment. It looks awful.

I haven't really kept up with the leaks for next year. Other than the CMF series, do we know any of the sets coming out?

Worst case scenario, we have a repeat of Solo and the sets are heavily discounted and the movie isn't revisited. I doubt that TROS bombing will cause any massive change for Lego and Star Wars sells well enough that it'll stick around.

It was confirmed in both canon and legends sources that the planet Endor is a gas giant. It's been established for a long time. Anyway, I've got to agree with others that the new Falcon looks a ton better without the gaps. Minor gaps aren't bad, but being able to see the interior is and they really hurt the look of the Kessel Run Falcon. I'll still probably pass on it, but old Lando and Boolio are tempting.

Endor is a gas giant, so it's not that. I'm guessing it's just an ocean on Endor we haven't seen.

I was planning on getting Kylo's shuttle, but I don't think it's really worth $130, especially given the last one 4 years ago was $10 less. Instead, I went for BB-8 since it's on sale and the new Kylo/Sith Trooper BrickHeadz.

I don't know how exactly getting rid of Star Wars for a while is going to help the issue. Yeah, there's a lot of rereleases, but taking a break for a year or two isn't going to change that. You're just delaying the rereleases, not getting rid of them. As others have said, rereleases, while they can be annoying, are a good thing for new customers and children. I'm glad they keep rereleasing older sets, not everyone was a collector back in 2003 or even 2012. Barring the Snowspeeders, which do need an update, they are usually pretty drastic improvements over older sets as well. The 2018 X-Wing was far better than the 2012 one. And it's not like the only thing Lego makes are rereleases, there are always new designs each year.

On a similar not, is 40333 sold out? The promotion was supposed to run until the third but I'm not getting it when I add it to my cart.

That's true. I didn't know about the superstructure, but I knew the guns were different. I don't know if quad turbolasers could be done at this scale. For me though, the most notable difference is just the sensor array and everything is fairly minor.

There's no "mistake". The new canon has repeatedly shown Star Destroyers in atmosphere, the movies never say anything one way or another, and the only thing that ever said they can't operate in atmosphere was the old Legends canon, which didn't even keep its own rule. Back to the model, one thing I really do like that I saw in the BrickVault review is the ability to turn it into an Imp-2 by turning the sensor array (?) back. I'll probably keep it as a 1 but I think it's a pretty cool little thing.

Not really. I don't like the prequels (except TCW, that was great) or the sequels, but I love a lot of the designs from both trilogies and I've gotten sets from both. I haven't watched Resistance but I got Vonreg's TIE because I like TIE Fighters and I got the Phantom II and I what I watched of Rebels I didn't like.

I understand the complaints about the minifigs, but I don't really care that much myself. I'm buying it for the ship, not the minifigs. Other than Vader, I don't really know who else they could have put in there. Sure, a few stormtroopers maybe, but those would be incredibly boring, moreso than the two included. There are really only four "groups" I can think of that would be on the Devastator: Vader, Stormtroopers, officers, and crew members. Given that the latter two actually run the ship, I think their inclusion is fitting, if boring. As for the ship itself, I think it's fantastic and I look forward to getting it.

I really doubt the crappiness of the Endgame wave is Lego's fault. They work exclusively from concept art and I would imagine Marvel was especially tight lipped this time around. They had to work with what they were given, even if basically none of it is accurate.

Their response to the petition was that there are currently no plans for one, but they're impressed by fans' passion. Just an incredibly basic, customer service response. It's still a huge leap in logic going from "regional exclusives are no longer a thing because people are mad" to "there absolutely will be a 501st battle pack because people want it". That's a massive leap, and the 501st battle pack should just stay out of the thread. There are no rumors, just baseless speculation and reasoning.

Do we have any information on the next UCS? I know the Y-Wing rumor had been floating around since December before it was actually revealed. I've heard an ISD, but the 2,000 part count seems too low.

I'm really disappointed that the Snowspeeder is still exactly the same. I guess since it's still the same it was 20 years ago, it really fits the anniversary though. The Slave I is really good and I'll probably get it even though I already have the UCS. The AT-RT is by far my favorite of the bunch. Disappointing we still don't actually get the correct driver though. Anakin's Pod is okay, I guess. I'll get it since I don't have one. The Imperial Dropship is just overpriced. It's a battle pack - crappy build, desirable figures, but it gets bumped up $5. I'll get them all probably, but I'm definitely waiting for a sale first.
