  1. Okay i agree ,you both bring up good points. They did give us a pretty good number of sets this year and we showed them that even though they are innacurate and oversized we can still dominate the market and AAT + 501st sets are flying of the shelfs like no lego sets ever before in history of their company with most fans mass buying both sets and then you look at next year and as someone who lives and breathes prequels and loves rogue1,rebels,mandalorian,solo movie,both cw series and cw movie there is literally nothing to buy except 1 x 30$ set till probably september of 2021. PT is still ignored in many aspects from not getting ucs sets for 10 years and 0 non droid figures in advent calendars for past 7 years to 0 brickheadz,helmets,action battle,4+ sets etc. You have lego in 2019 on actual 20th anniversary of TPM giving away 2 anniversary promos from OT,and making 6 collectable 20th anniversary figures which were also all OT,and just year later on ESB anniversary all of the sudden they celebrate movie anniversaries,they go above and beyond,they even print 40th anniversary on boxes,while we are supposed to be happy with crumbs and 5 sets out 60 being prequel.
  2. It is kinda unfair to say that with the situation here,people wanted beskar mando for a year and complained into oblivion cause he isnt in razor crest and now they dont want it in 30$ set cause some random character in a filler episode isnt included. Same with thousands of people that waited for ucs batwing to just give up on it cause they didnt like joker minifig etc. Minifigures make and break the set for lot of people,thats why i dont want to pay 300$ for a set that includes only 2 figures of which 1 is meme pushed by trolls on reddit with no intentions of buying the set. Especially when its yellow headed and doesnt look good displayed with tan,black and nougat figures and stands out and looks off and outdated.
  3. I dont mind jedi bob,i dont want yellow head one. 100 % agree. Cobb is easy to make in purist lego form,he doesnt require any new prints or molds,he is literally wearing boba armor and has red arms and scarf even if lego made official it would be 97% same of the one you make. We cant just go around and make purist Boss Nass,we dont have helmet for Bo Katan,there is no Gar Saxon or minister Almec armor or helmets,we cant make purist Kaminoan,Mas Amedda,Wat Tambor,Quarrens,San Hill,Dexter Jettster,Mother Talzin,galactic marines,Passel Argente,clone cadets,mando Armorer,Rune Haako,Mythrol,bad batch etc. All these figures made by us wouldnt be 3% of what lego can make. We dont even have Dryden Vos who was main villain of entire movie,Kuiil who is more important than Cobb and had a spot in 4 episodes,Paz Vizla who not only has his hot wheel car he also has kenner,hasbro,funko and hot toys figures and is smashing in sales. And lastly if tent and ballista end up being cool lot of people will buy multiple and they will get more out of it by getting tusken raiders than Cobb,it also makes no sense to have a tusken tent as building and no tusken raiders.
  4. I knew it would be swoop bike and not imperial troop transport. Beyond happy for the set,first i dont have to buy razor crest that i didnt even like or buildable the child just for 1 minifigure. Beskar mando sounds amazing. Rest of it is just bonus,tent opens up possibility for prequel,ot or mando fans to build a village/camp. Idk why people complain about Cobb cause he is so easy to make in purist form. Only sad about not getting bantha but i doubt it would be molded so i dont really care. All in all beskar mando + the child with additonal builds and 1 more figure for only 30$? yes please.
  5. I voted for Gunship for 1 reason and 1 reason only and that is because it was the only prequel set,if the option was jar jar bust or sebulbas podracer i would vote for that too and most likely buy it. We need a change,we are in 10th year of ONLY original trilogy ucs sets(14 sets in a row not including other sets that include plaque). We also didnt get a single non droid prequel figure in advent calendar since 2013,0 prequel brickheadz,all prequel anniversaries ignored,0 +4 prequel sets etc. With gunship i expect Captain Rex or Commander Cody,everything else is just bonus. If i have to choose i would rather have ucs playset than display set even though i dont play with it,but i will buy it if its display too unless it comes with yellow head jedi bob. I really hope this ucs set vote and millions lego will make from AAT set will change something.
  6. I would wait till UCS set gets revealed ,but if you dont want to wait I prefer and recommend Bricklink always. If you filter to european union sellers and paying through paypal you have pretty good options with cheapest one being 235 euros/280 $/212 pounds from Germany. Just make sure you read description cause some sellers dont sell minifig or have bad/missing parts. I personally expect 200$-250$ set with at least 3 figures and hopefully none of them is yellow head jedi Bob. Probably pilot,regular clone and 1 cool figure like cody phase 2 or captain rex. (i know vehicle is based on episode 2,but lot of us voted for those 2 figures) Well they did came up with the child and razor crest pretty fast.
  7. We already got 1 in 75078 ITT battle pack and it had only 141 pieces of which 28 were figures and stud shooters. I am pretty sure they can do it with double amount of pieces. It can be so many other things too considering Mando rides in sandcrawler and ITT during trailer,speeder is on poster and its maybe something that we didnt see at all and it will be some nieche thing in a filler episode like AT-ST raider was.
  8. Its really depressing to watch all these new items and merchandise for Mando Mondays and then realizing we will only get a small 30$ set and all these other companies are going all out. And i really hope LEGO doesnt cheap out and make same mando from At-St Raider and Razor Crest for that set too. As we already said Star Wars is about toy money and i am really confident that Mando will get new armor or color of armor and other upgrades as his character progresses so not getting beskar armor would be just terrible.
  9. I agree with BL sellers,its either old for new or they send you lower number of parts than ordered. Yeah Jeracs TIE builds are amazing,but i would be more comfortable with BrickVault if someone made thrutfull review on all of their builds and how hard it was to get the items before spending 1700$ on a shuttle that may or may not fall apart.(i know its not their fault they only sell instructions)
  10. Thats the problem with Brick vault sets. They look perfect,but they have weird techniques and we only see what they want us to see. Most of them are falling apart when touched and extremely fragile you can see it from other non sponsored reviews from their sets. Jedi interceptor,naboo starfighter are literally falling apart and some sections are being held by single stud. Really bad practice to not disclose that information before people buy 45$ instructions and 1500$ parts + shipping.
  11. Episode was great. I think the hero vehicle is

  13. I am planning to invest in some plastic storage boxes with grids that would separate minifigures. I would prefer not using hundreds and hundreds of zip bags for each separate figure,like i am now. Are figures still in great condition after being stored in no zip bags and just in plastic storage box with grid or plastic storage drawers,or do i need to keep zip bags too?

  15. There are only 2 good arguments for mandalorian set(unless its from season 2) 1. If we take a look at all the figures and vehicles HASBRO revealed at New York toy fair at the end of February of this year we can see we got all vehicles in LEGO form this year and rest of them are leaked for next year except Mandalorian speeder with Mando and The child. My second point is 2. Kuill and a Blurrg and Kuills hut. Argument for that is that they didnt include Kuill in the Razor Crest plus we dont have a hut set for the next year. Argument for both is that this year we got barc speeder and a hut in 30$ sets,you can also throw offworld jawa in both of those sets,set can also be both of those 2 sets combined
  16. I never got missing piece/s in a set and i collect since i was a child in 90ies,but after years of collecting and never having any problems this year i had to contact LEGO costumer service 3 times to get replacement parts cause mine came damaged/scratched and all of them were from this years star wars theme. Check 1 more time if it accidentally dropped and if it didnt get free replacement parts from LEGO. To answer last questions robots are doing everything during packing including sealing and boxes are being weighed at every stage to ensure they didnt miss any piece in the process. Better explained here https://gizmodo.com/exclusive-look-inside-the-lego-factory-5022769
  17. Yeah i am so grateful they didnt jump in price like other older battle pack figures like 2008 clones. I think i paid around 70$ for all my 24 troopers. Thanks for suggestion i will definitely be selling ahsokas idk about troopers though i kinda like them,its crazy how both figures are worth that much.
  18. Last 2 weeks i got Director Krennic and 2 Death Watch troopers from BL,2020 AAT and most recent buy was 2020 Jedi Interceptor on 30% sale. Atm deciding should i get At-St raider Grievous starfighter,more AATs or collect money for new laptop or ucs batwing/batmobile.
  19. Yeah i agree they should have only put the r2s head on interceptor and then include the rest of the body if someone wanted to use it as figure separately or better yet full r2 and then additional r2 head for interceptor,would save them the money for unnecesary pieces they had to add on both sides. I absolutely hate 501st BP at-rt cause its so innacurate and oversized,i suggest building moc from Eurobricks user named Kit Bricksto,they look magnificent,and you can switch front pieces(armor thing) to match 501st army and/or other battalions.
  20. To support prequel sets i got Jedi Interceptor yesterday,luckily it was on 30% sale in Muller so i paid like 23$ for it. Ship is beautiful and much bigger than i expected(never owned one),but it sucks that R2D2 legs are showing. Huge issue i had with it is that they didnt pack cockpit in any special bag and it came full of scratches and grey parts had black stains/marks on it. I assume lot of people had the same issue cause that part is currently unavailable in LEGO replacement part thingy,so keep in mind that not only figure is innacurate you will most likely also have to deal with waiting for weeks/months for new cockpit.
  21. There are a lot of possibilities most of them fall down if we only get 3 figures cause 1-2 have to be pilot/s,do we know the number of figures included?
  22. I am not OT fan and i rarely buy OT sets but i love this Imperial Shuttle,unless figures are God awful i will be buying it,was also eyeing Shuttle Tydirium from 2015 for a while. One of the most beautiful star wars vehicles and i am a sucker for shuttles even though i was very sceptical when these set lists were leaked about LEGO being able to make that ship for only 80$ . I assume this thing under the cockpit is a ramp? Would be cool if its removable,okay if its not too. Hopefully it comes with royal guard or endor crew. Dont care about other sets apart from Mandalorian which is probably season 2 set cause its better protected than other pictures. All in all very disappointed with January/March wave,guess my Death Watch army will expand with almost nothing else to buy.
  23. There is new Midi Scale Nebulon set,i suggest watching latest MandRproductions video. I personaly dont care about original triogy sets so wont comment on it.
