X-wings should be remade as often as possible. Beside the Falcon it’s the most iconic vehicle, but there’s only one Falcon and many different types of X-wings. Minifigs are overrated and should only exist to add realism to the builds.

Will the Duel set be widely available, or perhaps as exclusive as the Vader bust from last year?

Perhaps because it’s a confronting scene and parents would reluctant for any children under 10 or so to watch ROTS. Therefore it’s a small set that only sells to older children that might normally be interested in other themes or adults. I agree that it is baffling Lego used the torso from Mustafar when they also produced Obi-Wan’s torso from Tatooine that would have worked perfectly anyway.

The Soulless One looks like better value when considering the size. It’s bigger than the Night Buzzard. The latter is disappointing though. No decent interior and overpriced in Australia, both $120. I’ll be glad to get Allah Gold’s Eta-2 to swoosh around with Ratio Tile’s and say “game time started.” Also I’ll buy two each of the AAT and the battle pack, one to build now and one to put sell for $1000 in a few years.

Obvious fake, especially given it is winter right now and this would have been included with the other recent leaks then.

What a strange wave. Anakin’s Eta2 and Grevious’ starfighter are the same as previous sets. The Night Buzzard looks interesting. The AAT looks ok but uses the wrong bottom pieces. Is this resistance transport the one from TROS? Otherwise is this original content again? The Final Duel is great though and is my favourite scene across all movies. Also good to finally get The Senate.

Caravan of Courage has entered the chat. Absolutely Advent Calenders should include the sequel trilogy. It’s still the least represented era.

Looks like a Vader’s castle, Lars homestead, X-wing, and Falcon as well.

Schrodinger’s AT-TE perhaps. Surely it’s unlikely for two large walkers to be released at the same time though.

It’s a good mix but there should be more OT sets. My predictions: Jabba’s palace/throne, small with three minifigs - $A45 Wampa cave with Wampa, Luke, Imperial Probe Droid - $A45 TIE Interceptor with Pilot, Admiral Piett - $A100

Rey is only in one TROS set for the moment, compared to 3 for Poe, and 2 each for Kylo, Finn, and Zori. If anything one reason for the Night Buzzard set is to include another Rey if she’s meant to be the main character of the trilogy. I’m somewhat hoping for a red sabre though.

The sets on sale in Australia are just the 3 Action Battles, Droid Commander, and Pasaana Chase at 20% discount. Obviously it changes in each country but that’s an example.

Because the last A-wing(75175) included Lando from the Battle of Endor.

Well I for one can never have enough X-wings. However, I agree that other vehicles are deserving of as UCS versions as well. I just meant that the other 3 UCS Rebel starfighters are better renditions than 10225. Will 75275 be the only UCS set released this year?

$330 dollarydoos for that!! I could almost get some jousting sticks for that. Really though the build is excellent and I think will look better than the photos make it appear. I had hoped that Nien Numb was included and I like the symmetry between the last A-wing and this one’s set numbers (75175 - 75275). Now can we get an improved X-wing next year?

Another one might be: [ ] WHY ISN’T THIS A GUNSHIP Supreme Leader said we would get a Republican Gunship. Boycott the 501st battle pack in protest! I’m still hoping for Luke’s Landspeeder or an X-wing. But honestly something around the deck length of the Pirates of Barracuda Bay, about 35-40cm, would make $AUD 330 bearable.

Possibly Wampa cave Luke? Although I think Bespin or Crait are more likely.

Also perhaps because they were released in June outside of North America. If I remember correctly we did get solid leaks about the January 2020 wave by this time last year however. Obi Wan’s hit and the code names for the micro fighters I believe.

So a remake of this set? https://brickset.com/sets/75169-1/Duel-on-Naboo The only sets that I would think are overdue are a TIE Interceptor, an ARC-170, and a Mon Cal cruiser.

The TROS January wave sets were on discount as soon as they were available on 19 December here in Australia. At the moment all the major retailers are discounting all Lego until the end of April anyway. The TIE Dagger I don’t think will feel as overpriced compared to the Soulless One. Perhaps a better metric than PPP or weight would be volume. It’s a flatter star fighter so will take up less space. $80USD is excessive for something that not massive and will be even more ridiculous if it’s greater than $110AUD. Almost as bad as the $60 Snowspeeder from last year.

Wow, I woke up this morning expecting an A-wing and we get this battle pack. I definitely like it more than the Mando BP and I might even start building an army, mainly for the original Battlefront II storyline. The AT-RT is too big, obviously around the legs and feet. However, it’s not so big relative to that minifigs are too short for their width. The helmet looks to be the same as Commander Gree’s from last year with reasonably similar printing. At least to me it does but I’m not really into the minutiae of clone trooper design. Hopefully it will be more widely available in Australia than the Kashyyyk AT-RT as that was only sold by Lego and a few smaller online retailers.

It became available in Australia a few minutes before midnight last night in the eastern states so probably around then for each time zone.

I would swap the A-wing for a TIE Interceptor and Jabba’s barge for Home One. The most recent A-wing and B-wings are both great but there’s only been one Interceptor.

For most of the series he was in his Delta 7B, that’s 75214. The Eta 2 that appeared in ROTS was shown in a few episodes of Seasons 5 and 6. Given 75214 was only released less than two years ago, the new set should be his Eta 2, essentially a remake of 75038.

By the time the next unknown wave comes out in summer/January 2021, the 2nd season will be finished. Will Lego want to release sets for a previous season a year earlier? I agree a Kuill minifig would be good and Moff Gideon might be returning but by then there should be more characters and vehicles to feature.
