LEGO Star Wars 2021 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
kidtheboss611 replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Crosshair's new print is just black with some lines, hunter's missing his gun, tech helmet is oversized so you can't shut the back of the ship if he's in the back, echo has a hand instead of a gadget arm thingy (granted he might get a new hand but that's still dumb IMO). Also the use of P2 helmets just isn't accurate to the characters actual helmets. I think its a good set at like 60 or 70 dollars but for 100 dollars I'd think new molds and a bigger shuttle would be "enough" This perfectly sums up how I feel about the BB set. A new mould for just Echo would be enough and maybe throw in a backpack and kama but instead of that we get two speeders nobody asked for. -

I watched Brick Wiz's video and it made me want to cancel my pre order cause the figures seem really lack luster (Specifically Crosshair). They're all missing backpacks except Tech and the lack of arm printing coupled with the ships size make this seem like a 70-80 dollar set not a $99.99. I'll still get it cause I'm impatient but it feels like Lego really mailed it in on this set but tried really hard on the other sets in the wave (Boba, Paz, Fenner, Gar, Bo). I don't know if that's because they thought BB would be unpopular compared to CW7 and Mando or they were trying to save money and not make new molds. I hope its the first but I fear it might be the second. -

I think @hondohnaka is referring to the David Hall Video where he said TLG doesn't look to the secondary market for Minifigures but I don't think they said anything about sets but David posed the question about minifigs not all things LSW. -

I don't think TLG would do that. The opportunity to make a Venator (whether UCS or play scale) should come either in the next year based on CW season 7 or we'll have to wait for a 20 year anniversary ROTS in 2025. Also, I wanted to ask do you guys think we could get an AT-TE as soon as next year since it appears in the BB trailer with Tech using it against clones. I think its been over 7 years since we last got one so they're due to make one considering the demand on secondary sites. -

That's not really fair since your not criticizing your just attacking him. I haven't seen him spread disinformation other than the CMF thing which we don't actually have concrete answers to. Also while you can hold him accountable for how he uses his platform it's his platform which he can use however he wants. If you don't like him/his audience don't him watch. Personally, I don't think he's an idiot I was just using the phrase to further my larger point that even though he acts a certain way his points are still very valid and his dislike is unwarranted. -

How do people already have the whole figure? Is it just leaks from the factory or are stores mistakenly putting them out like for SW Black Series. -

Why is it that so many people in this forum dislike Mandr. I know he acts really childish and complains but at the same time, a lot of the things he's said and campaigned for are things the majority of the community wanted: 501st BP and Gunship/More Prequel UCS. The Jar Jar stuff is stupid and definitely him screwing with the designers but it's those same designers who don't really listen to fan demand and cheap out on minifigs like in last year's summer wave and this years gunship (idgaf about Cody but the P1 pilot missing is a huge blunder). I don't like that multi-billion-dollar corpos make bare minimum products while charging premium prices and then I see fans say "be happy with what you have." They don't owe us anything but the bare minimum is accuracy and they've missed on that front lately too. All in all, Mandr might be an idiot and the definition of a petty child but his points still stand and a lot of the people who attack him don't seem to understand that. I know it's played out by him but "only the best is good enough" is their slogan yet doesn't seem to apply to how TLG makes their products. -

Quick question, Last week I made my first ever pre-order from lego for the Darth Vader Med-Chamber and BB Shuttle, and while I saw the charge on my card last week they disappeared today and I haven't been charged. On Lego's website it says my order is "waiting for new stock" but I assumed that's a preorder thing. Anybody know if the charges disappearing is connected to pre-orders or something else. Also regarding the discussion about the helmet knowing lego, I don't think they would change the Boba fig for future sets if they were too lazy to do it for this year's Slave I. It's dumb they haven't changed it considering how distinct the green is in the show but I think this Slave I might have been a last-minute switch from the ESB version that was rumored so that could be the reason for the lackluster helmet cover. Nevertheless, the arm printing is amazing and I think ill still get it. -

Yah, Kanan's death had me crying but I also got pretty emotional when Hevy died and when Echo got blown up but I was pretty young so it could be nostalgia -

I think the Peak of TCW > Peak Rebels. A random Rebels episode is better than a random CW episode but the best CW arcs like Umbara, or Mandalore (any of the 3 IMO) are better than the individual arcs in Rebels. Rebels crew is amazing throughout which is what makes it top tier SW. -

I couldn't agree more. While there are issues at Lucasfilm and I personally dislike the new trilogy I won't blame Kathleen Kennedy because its not her job to make films and write stories. Its her job to fund projects and greenlight new ones. Blame Rian and JJ for being morons and Kathleen for trusting them but you must give her credit for greenlighting new shows that have been excellent. Edit: Didn't realize we weren't talking about this anymore; I don't mean to restart any arguments. -

The leak of Boba is fantastic but I'm happier about how good the Gar Saxon looks. His new helmet mold looks fantastic and the Mando Loyalist also has a great helmet. The characters are Japanese so I'm going to guess Japan. -

The new sets look great especially the Trexler marauder. After seeing all the sets I think I might buy them all on August 1. I think its really cool that they decided to go back and change it since Boba showed up in Mando cause I'm positive I heard from all the leakers it was a OT set with Han. -

I'm really new to this forum and was just clicking through older posts and saw this. In my opinion (and in most peoples) having Commander Cody in a battlepack defeats the purpose of a battle pack because they are meant to build out an army so having multiple of a named character is kind of useless. one of the reasons I have 3 useless ki adi mundi is because of the clone+jedi BP couple of years ago.
