  1. Yeah, I'm assuming we'll get 5-10 figures maximum, just vader, some stormtroopers, and officers. They continually release these ships becuase they sell well, and lucasfilm wants them to always have the most famous ships on shelves so anyone can get one.
  2. I do like army builders in the advant calander, I don't like minibuilds for SW stuff so I just use them as part pack/army builders. I personally liked the TFA designs until I got a TLJ stormy in hand, and then I had to switch all my TFA helmets for TLJ ones. It just feels more accurate to the entire trilogy.
  3. I agree this is the most likely outcome, possibly with a jumptrooper of officer instead of the third sithtrooper. I don't mind the stormtrooper being in the sets as it's the most massable unit, but it is HILARIOUS how out of place he looks/is in some sets. I bought 2 of the guardpacks and combined them into a larger version of the build and e-web type thing, and I display it with only one stormtrooper present, just standing in the corner with his head down.
  4. Especially next year's battlepacks. If the codenames are correct, it's a mandalorian battlepack and a first order TROS battlepack. Assumably the TROS one will contain sith and or jump troopers, so it'll be an easy way to get massable figures without having to buy a ton of speeder chases or first order shuttles, and whatever the mando pack has, be it scum, imperial death and/or flame troopers, or even other mandalorians if the series does go that way (which I doubt), it'll be a cheap way to army-build a faction.
  5. It's a comical set, but I don't see it as better than a $15 set of, say, sith troopers.
  6. Me too, It'd be awful if someone leaked it this late in the game. (Also aggresively hitting the refresh button) I don't get why people don't accept the possibility that it could be a hint, no ones saying it's confirmation.
  7. I was agreeing with you, didn't mean for it to sound like I was disagreeing Yes, it started changing to more expensive ones in october
  8. I believe there was a set in the leaked 2020 list that the leaker said something like "If theres another mando set it'll be this", and I doubt the leaked mando torso was from the battle pack, as the series doesn't look like it'd include other mandalorians and they probably wouldn't put the titular character in a battle pack. Which we do have a leak of a second mando torso, might be in the above set
  9. So far it seems like a good hint, but I wouldn't take it as a sihouhette of ship "x" was on the back of the box of set "y" so set "x" is confirmed
  10. I can't really get a decent job until I get the degree, but yeah for as far as family goes I think they may have actually given up on me spending my money on useful things by now. Ha, So you're saying I should disown the family I was born into to buy the star destroyer? I'm ready to unleash my inner anakin "from my point of view the people who are financially responsible are evil" @Balrogofmorgoth explained this pretty well in the comment above yours.
  11. HA! Yes. The only reason I can possibly think of besides accidently making waaaaaay to many venom heads but somehow only his heads is that they wanted people to be able to quickly mass symbiotes for a venomverse-style thing, but symbiotes almost always cover the whole body of the person they took over so that doesn't even work.
  12. will it, though? From what we've seen so far it looks pretty different, and TLJ was criticized for how radically different it was. (As well as some bad characters, plotlines, etc.) Personally I don't think TROS will be that similar to return of the jedi besides concluding a trilogy and killing palpatine. that seems reasonable, it'll probably be sept 13-20ish Ha! My problem's not space, but cost. How does one justify spending $700 on a single set to one's family, much less have $700 available to spend on a single set?
  13. Thank you! I just read through multiple pages of people whining about a 501st battle pack, which was enough to make me go from "yeah a 501st pack could be cool" to "I hope that never becomes a reality ever" I know! With all the new parts that have come out since the OG set, it'll be drastically different, and probably the longest set ever as well judging by the shape of the ship and price point of the set.
  14. I agree, studios was an origional theme just using IP's in some of it's sets. Like "zebra" won't be a liscened theme overall, just contain a set with a non-lego IP, God that symbiote was something. Did they just have a ton of heads left in stock, like why would they build that thing?
  15. a few months AFTER the film came out, we got a set with venom piloting a giant venom symbiote. Venom is one of spider-man's most iconic villians, and I highly doubt this was meant to be an unofficial venom movie tie-in. Spider-verse, maybe, but not venom.
  16. I meant to say the sith trooper's value online will be lower than had he been shuttle exclusive 1. That slipped my mind. 2. I find it highly unlikely we won't get a battle pack with sith troopers soon, but I agree it won't be the exact same. As far as we know they lack any variation like death troopers had, and have no pauldrons to remove, so the only major change I can think of is that they'll just continue giving them stud shooters making us buy the parts for the accurate gun on bricklink. 3. I know, I was saying what it could be as in what figures, as we don't know any exclusive mandalorian show trooper variants Did i miss something? The only imp flametroopers that are canon I can think of were in the fallen order preview, and with white armor not red. Do you mean the non-canon force unleashed ones, were they in that special look at the mandalorian at celebration?
  17. A sony film in the same universe as venom, they didn't make venom sets so they probably won't make morbius sets. Unless the figures are bad it'd be kinda hard to get worse
  18. BRO THOOOOOOOOR! Possibly, we'd heard that the $60 set is the biggest though so don't get expectations up. Marvel cinematic universe theatric. And november-january or whenever this releases seems early for a may movie. I agree, it's unlikely.
  19. Just going to focus on the new or not yet revealed named and codenamed ones. Obi-wan vs anakin has to be mustafar duel, very exciting bantha vs skyhopper is such a weird idea for what's supposed to be iconic ships but hey, a bantha! Bruges has got to be the sith trooper battlepack, which in my opinion lowers the value of that shuttle. Not sure what huckleberry could be, either massable scum (which could be cool) or more death troopers/broken, undisciplined stormtroopers like in the empires end book. And finally I hope that that possible second mandalorian full set is the razorcrest and has ig-11 and space werner herzog. viewership decreased as quality increased...
  20. New MCU theatric could be a final battle FFH set, or another endgame set. I'm glad we know we'll get at least a bit more than the hulk helicopter drop Venom and spider-man could be juniors, or maybe since these seem to be preliminary names, it's a set with agent venom and spider man in it. It's also possible we could get a venom bigfig.
  21. A physical figure of rescue from hulk helicopter drop leaked. I really like the printing on this one, makes up for the purple being too bright.
  22. 1. They'd have to at least partially redesign the star destroyer build they've been doing to get that design, both the 214 and 2017 wouldn't be able to fit the cannon and still be able to be placed down without breaking without changing the skeleton of the set. 2. It's true that a lot of designs only have one scene, like the resistance transports. However, sometimes there's good reason, as in the starfortresses all being destroyed (RIP Paige Tico and FInch Dallow) I agree, the interceptor and bomber are way overdue, and the tie defender would have been a great set. I recently sold my copy of the 2010 one as I couldn't figure out how to mod it to today's TIE standard without starting over from scratch, and the fact that the Imperial interceptors and bombers have blue instead of grey tells you how badly we need a remake. Pyre would be great. Also, I'm annoyed that kenobi has no leg printing, but I may still get the set since I got the other $20-30 death star one. It'd be nice to see if they do more if they can be modified to all combine, or I may just try to aggresivly jam them into my death star.
  23. I'd 100% buy a b-wing but I really hope we get an imperial tie interceptor before our 3rd first order type tie interceptor in 3ish years. They are modified isds, but I think lego wouldn't make ISD sets for TROS and more likely would jsut make it based off the origional trilogy. Unless these end up baing a big part of the film and they can figure out how to build that cannon on the underside into the set/ Yes, the sequel trilogy's had lots of great designs.
  24. Easy wave 2 figure, if they revealed it as early as august. possibly, the odds of a TROS ISD are unlikely though, they'd probably make it either origional trilogy or just do a FO destroyer. Pretty much, yup. But we know that the resistance uses old new republic stuff and that the new republic was demilitarizing, so they didn't have that much and whatever they did have wouldn't look to different to resistance fighters. Palpatine's host body this whole time. He only created anakin because that was the only person who could build him c-3po. For some reason when I read the qoute you had for this I thought you guys were talking about that alien in the falcon set, the raider at-st makes much more sense. And I agree, the weapons were very accurate.
