That's true, but the garbage vehicles have details too. Lego definately put more cost into trolls this year than it did for marvel, but we can't expect them to completely redo the budget halfway through production when they learn that the sets sold well last year. That's...exactly my point. Completely forgot about the hall of armor being an endgame set, your're right, that one was amazing. And I agree that FFH wasn't that bad.

LEGO Star Wars 2020 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
Mandalorianknight replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I would still say just to have common decency towards others, as the mods and admins have said. I get the complainers point about too many artoos in general, but as long as his appearances make logical sense I think it's ok. Why do you get to decide the spoiler ban? It seemed to me the general consensus was 2 weeks, not one. And mentioning IS definately a spoiler for chapter 3, which came out literally the day you made the comment. I'd just say, it takes about 1/2 a second to click the spoiler tag, and it's nice for people who haven't seen it yet, so why not? -

The above is more or less what I believe we'll see in the pack yeah, this episode is amazing and the battle pack likely will be too Have to agree with you on the color scheme, looks pretty good to me. And with the price as well, what's it supposed to be, $100? no way. Might want to use some spoiler tags there... -
I missed that, but looking back on it with all those gold ingots, I might buy the set instead of bricklinking iron man Actually, that's an interesting point, since both the bank robberies are junior sets. Is is that the juniors sets need to have the villians focused on stealing, now? Like, so it's not fighting, maybe they have new standards for their 4+ sets. Exactly, people here forget how long it takes to make a set. They really aren't though...

I don't know about the mech, I think they all look pretty stupid, and personally I was hoping the venom one would be more organic like last years. However, I completely agree about the legged spidercycle. The previous wave, and the plane and stuff in this wave, those are ugly and stupid. This is such an abomination, it's beautiful. I also won't be picking it up, but it just has this perverse concept of two idiotic previous sets mashed together, along with no purpose even if spider man needed a vehicle for whatever reason. No i get that, I was just pointing out that this likely isn't disney's fault. In my opinion the reason these other themes get more detailed and adult sets is because they have more adult interest. Sure, adults love the MCU, but it just seems to me like it's a less likely group of people to spend a ton of money on detailed lego models when the have much less iconic vehicles and whatnot than star wars, where it's all about the spaceships. The main focus of marvel is the figures, which yeah, should be of better quality than they are, but less adults are going to spend tons of money on garbage builds for figures, and most children will still buy a set even if captain america doesn't have leg printing. True, infinity war's sets were great. But then, it had more non-spoiler stuff than endgame to make models off of. Endgame really only had the quinjet that shows up for a few seconds, since so much of the film was kept under wraps.

I read somewhere that our spoilery little friend from the mandalorian was the reason some merchandise was held back or hidden (and they'd want to have ALOT of merch for this guy, so you know they've got it waiting in the wings). Might be that lego isn't sure if they can release it yet. ^non spoiler version of above: No one's torso in the show really resembles the leaked one, so maybe it's considered a spoiler and was just an unlucky production leak. -

I think the head print is different but the complaints are referring to that he appears twice. In my opinion both his appearances make sense, but it's more so that another landspeeder exists at all this soon after the previous that annoys me. I think they're just equipment holders o decoration or something. It's clearly not a modular set, as it has nothing to connect to in-universe. -

I quite like the colouration. The earth orange goes well with the white Exactly, the set reminds me of the diorama I made back in middle school Not for january, I don't think. Um, it is called the sith troopers battlepack... -

Mandalorianknight replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
did you mean resistance reborn? Agreed, but expensive ones at that. I do like this wave alot, lots of good cheap sets, and very nice looking larger ones. zorri's y-wing is a great way to get a cheap zorri, same goes for kylo's shuttle Sith trooper battle pack is great, I love all the figure designs and the vehicle isn't that bad for once The obi-wan vs anakin set is ok, figures are great but i think the lava looks pretty weird I'm warming to obi-wans hut but still think the new landspeeder didn't need to be made. bantha vs skyhopper is amazing, i love that bantha design Both the x-wing and tie dagger are really well built and asthetically pleasing, with great figures. I'l be buying the bantha vs skyhopper set, a sith trooper pack or two, and of course the inevitable mandalorian pack, i can say that even without having seen it. -

No rumors. Best case scenario we get a $20-30 set with Cal, second sister, a purgetrooper and/or BD-1, but it's unlikely we'll get anthing close to release. Maybe in later 2020 or 2021, like with the battlefront 2 set where it took over a year after the release of the game to have the set released -
That's really well done, MUCH better than what lego made Yeah. This entire second wave could have been made of vehicles ACTUALLY IN THE BATTLE, like the chitauri tanks and ravager ships I get why we didn'tget q ship and sanctuary 2 since they're waaaay too big to be close to scale, and while of course lego makes lots of sets not nearly to scale, like almost all star wars ships larger than a starfighter, the sets would still have to be at least $100 to get any sort of accuracy and fit figures, as they would have to to be in the play theme.

Have you seen the mandalorian episodes? He's got solid evidence. To me, however, that torso print looks almost like , though it's probably just another mandalorian -

That's the absolute best case scenario, but it'd be wise not to get our hopes up. That said, I never would have expected a death watch pack back in 2011. UNTINNI! -
I don't think it's likely we'll see ANYTHING for what if besides maybe a comic-con figure. Exactly I think you're setting your expecations wishlist-high here. It's not too likely that we'll see directly related sets to what-if, as though technically MCU it's an animated series exploring "alternate universes" or however they explained it.
