  1. These all (well, all but a sound brick for yub nub but not victory celebration ) sound great, especially the endor bunker. We. need. A. New. Endor. Bunker. And that rebel fleet in the vein of TIE fighter collection would be cool. That would certainly be controversial, but if they could do that I agree it's the best thing they could do short of reviving chrome silver as a color. Some random battle packs: Rebel fleet battle pack: y-wing pilot, rebel ground crew, rebel officer, fleet trooper. Build is a maintenance/refueling vehicle. $14.99 Death star battle pack: TIE pilot, imperial officer, naval trooper, death star gunner. Build is a turbolaser. $14.99 Clone specialists: 1x ARC trooper (red), 1x ARC trooper (blue), 1x clone commando, 1x AT-RT driver (501st). Build is an accurately sized AT-RT and some terrain. $14.99 Droid specialists: 3x bx commandos, 3x b2 droids, build is a dwarf spider droid and a smaller crab droid. $14.99 And trying something new, basically sizing up the idea of the 501st set, would probably never happen: Might of the empire: AT-ST, 2 speeder bikes, E-web, turbolaser. 2x AT-ST driver, 1x scout trooper, 4x stormtrooper, 1x Darth Vader, 1x Palpatine. $69.99 Hope of the rebellion: T-47 snowspeeder, PT-tower turret, speeder bike, some Yavin Temple fortress-type build. 2x rebel pilot, 4x rebel fleet trooper, 1x Luke Skywalker (yavin jacket, no medal print), 1x Leia, 1x Han. $69.99 Valor of the Republic: Av-7 cannon, 2x correctly scaled at-rts, 2x BARC speeder. 2x AT-RT drivers, 4x p2 shinies, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano (S7), ARC trooper. $69.99 Oppression of the separatists: Spider droid, crab droid, 2x droidika, 4x b1, 4x b2, 2x bx commando, 1x Count Dooku, 1x General Grevious. $69.99
  2. Looks very nice, combining the more accurate scale of the 2015 set with the separatist color scheme of the 2009 set, except your design is superior to both.
  3. They're from the lego star wars brickmaster, It's a book with instructions and parts for lots of different models.
  4. I don't know, I haven't played fortnite but I think it's rated teen, and kids just play it anyway, whereas lego sets are explicitly for children most of the time. Also deadpool's been in lego games and all sorts of games for forever, It's moreso a physical set with deadpool in it that's the problem. A classic hawkeye would be cool, but I'm not sure we'd get a classic scarlet witch, given the costume. A shame, a molded hairpiece with the red thing she has in her hair in the comics would be pretty cool.
  5. I belive you just see the figure from the book. And As @2lazeetomakeaname said, Maul's male. SOLO HYPERSLAYS THE COMPETITION @LEGOscum I see. In that case I'd argue that Disney doesn't want a repeat of Baby Yoda, (itself a repeat of the lack of ready merchandise for the first star wars film back in 1977), and will make sure all the merch for this season is happening, but I suppose the sets we already know we're getting are coming out close enough before S2 to be promotion. It's also interesting that Disney makes most of the decisions of that type.
  6. Not since the latest update Speaking of the games, with battlefront 2 it took them over a year from launch to get a set out, so I'm still holding out hope for a fallen order set in january 2021. THE HEROES CAN'T STOP THE MAUL STREAK It depends. We will probably see leaks for figures and such within a month or two, but actual pictures are most likely to come out about when you say. That said, I seem to remember the images for the january waves leaking in late november the last few years, so it might be more like late june.
  7. GCPD looks like a real building, unlike the avengers compound battle set, and I assume people hope it wouldn't be 4+. However, I still think a GCPD D2C wouldn't make a good set.
  8. Yeah, in-universe it's a color swap of cad bane's xanadu blood. Nice to hear you've already got the CW version on your list, same with the prison ship. The figure could be Matt Lanter's cameo!
  9. and of course it's from dimensions . If anyone truly despairs at the prospect of a batman dinosaur mech-less existence, light modifications to the venom dinosaur from the upcoming marvel set would work. But the GCPD police station itself isn't very iconic, which is the problem. I had to look it up, it really seems to be just a normal-looking building.
  10. Rumor is they cancelled a comic-based deadpool set, with the same set number as what became the doctor strange set, because they were worried parents wouldn't want the same character in an R-rated film as the one in their children's toys. It was in a just2good video, I think.
  11. I like this list. (nice callback to that origional geonosis troops set) I think the problem with AOTC is that you've got the airspeeder chase (which 100% deserves a remake, even the TIE bomber was more recent than it), geonosis (which you reflect pretty well in your sets, they all sound great), and then everything else becomes a bit problematic in lego's eyes. Jango's slave one is a colorswap of boba's, and most people know boba's better and prefer it, accounting for why we haven't had one in ages (I hope we get one soon, though, and like that you included a kaminoin in yours). The nubian yacht would be best made chrome, which lego doesn't do anymore, and have shown with the razorcrest that they won't even use metallic silver but LBG. I think your list works pretty well, as it brings the sets lego for whatever reason hasn't made, or stuff that's well overdue for a remake. Only thing I would add are the battle packs, of course. You've got a lot of sets, enough for multiple waves, so I'll do enough Battle packs for multiple waves. Clone trooper battle pack: 2 p1 shinies, p1 captain, p1 lieutenant. Build is a command center like in clone troopers v droidikas from 2013. $14.99 Republic battle pack: 3 random jedi, clone commander. parts of jedi can be swapped to make other jedi. Build is a Barc speeder and maybe some terrain. $14.99 Geonosis battle pack: 2 geonosians with guns, geonosian with pike thingie, b2 battle droid. Build is one of those things the geonosians ride on. $14.99 Geonosis droids battle pack: 4 geonosis b1s, 2 geonosis b2s. Build is 2 droidikas and a bit of terrain. $14.99
  12. I had forgetten about this ship, but after re-watching the scene it appears in, it looks great, very accurate to the source model. If you want to build another ship from the series, it could be interesting to make the bounty hunter ship from the end of episode 6, or the outland TIE, with the wing hinges. Agreed that there aren't many ships though, I think the only other ones we see are well known from the films or beyond the scale of starfighters.
  13. But we already got a good 4+ one last year, avengers compound battle. A police station could work, but I don't think it's nearly as iconic as something like Arkham.
  14. Marvel's only had 2 D2Cs, 2015's helicarrier and 2018's hulkbuster. They were the off years for DC, but DC gets twice as many as marvel.
  15. That's good to hear. If the razorcrest and brickheadz were, assumably, rushed once the Mandalorian came out and was shown to be so popular, I think it's likely lego learned from their mistake and 2021 will bring more sets. Ah yes, the Rebel legion troopers set, $30 with 4 rebels, two imperial security droids, a rebel AT-RT and another battlefront 2 staple, everyone's favorite x-34 landspeeder with a gun slapped on the hood.
  16. Yeah. We already know many AFOLS would like x-men. AFOLS make up the vast majority of the people on lego ideas, so although there might be demand among 10,000 AFOLS on lego ideas, it doesn't have any indication about whether or not children, the target audience and vast majority of LEGO consumers, would want it. Same thing here. Besides Deadpool and wolverine, even, (and like you say the mutants the MCU uses like scarlet witch and quicksilver), none of the other characters are really as popular as the MCU characters anymore, especially among children.
  17. To add to this, some of the machines making sets (only a few, don't worry lego's not stopping production) have started making masks instead.
  18. Nice collection, you've got alot of older sets that look in pretty good condition! And of course, "jedi bob" from the 2002 gunship.
  19. Is Mando s2 still coming in the fall? I know it was supposed to release in october, but did they finish filming before the virus hit? I would assume not but I haven't heard anything about delays on it. I guess with how long it takes lego to design sets it wouldn't impact that. Yeah I agree the next few years will be lots of sets from the first six films and hopefully some mop-up of sets missing from the newer ones, along with sets for the disney+ shows of course.. If we're really lucky, maybe some high republic, though it's unlikely. Please no, not the extreme laziness of battlefront 2 at launch! Not to mention another AT-RT anytime soon would exceed landspeeder levels of repetition and probably cause me to go insane. That would be great. It's also possible this AAT serves as a counterpart to the 501st legion set (though I hope not, I'd much rather have S7 ahsoka than more clones). Regarding the idea of more 501st style sets, no, I think it's unlikely. The amount of hype this has among the Afol community is great, but it's a one-off. And just imagine the anger if they started making only $30 battle packs
  20. Yes, multiple reliable sources have said "it's not cody" Yeah, we don't have a p2 with visor mold. I like that there aren't holes in the side of the helmets like with the p1 troopers, but it does limit the use use of the helmets for characters like Cody and Rex.
  21. That would be a really good set for AFOLS, but their armies would have to be pretty prominent to get a battle pack. Exactly. People don't know the x-men as well anymore, it's the MCU, and due to that, avengers, that sells. ^this, they just aren't as popular anymore.
  22. That would be nice, though it's a bit more than the 2015 set. Yeah, with inflation it's $27 today, they can't jack up the price by that much. I could see it just being a bit bigger and having some more figures, like @2lazeetomakeaname says.
  23. Looks great! I love the greebling and the studs like in the game. And welcome to eurobricks!
  24. Yeah, it would totally work for kree soldiers! Even with the outrider one, It only works if you love to army-build captain americas and black widows
  25. I agree, it worked for her character at least for AoU and Infinity War. I think it looks a bit bulky, but other than that it's good, and like you say will probably look better and more like captain marvel with the mohawk on.
