  1. There is now doubt??? X-D
  2. The TRU in Fullerton, California, and the LEGO Store in Downtown Disney where I went to had the same stuff, but no indy sets... :'-( Hope those will appear here soon too. You guys living in this area should check it out!
  3. Yeah, that's true! Thanks!
  4. Hey *vader* Nice review! I got one question though: How well can you "fire" those new missiles?
  5. It's an alternate model of 6211: Imperial Star Destroyer. Somebody is trying to make easy money by reselling it as a new set.
  6. I don't know... I don't think they slide. I believe to see a little gab where the white tiles are, but I'm not sure. Here is my theory: The doors have hinges on top, but they are about 1 stud sunken-in so that they are below the hull, and maybe also sticking out 1 stud (so that there is a 1x2 stud carved out of the door for each hinge), allowing the doors to rotate on their top edge that is facing toward the plane and make any part of the door that is behind the rotation point of the hinges drop. This would suggest, though, that this edge would eventually have to be round (which would suck of course). It's a complicated thing! Too bad that the catalog is split right at the point where you would be able to see if there is anything going on on the side of the doors. Oh well, I guess we'll find out eventually... In the case of the Police plane, you can totally see a TECHNIC-hole on the inside of the side of the door, apparently an X-shaped one. That's probably where its rotation point is located.
  7. 8-
  8. HELL YEAH! *wub*
  9. INTERESTING FACTS & QUESTIONS I think that all of these sets are awesome and thank you very much, Vader, for those pics. But before I get into deeper emotions, let's get some things straight: 1. That dropping thing under the AT-AP is no mysterious weapon, it's its third leg (Unless you use it to kick or flatten enemies :-D ). If you don't believe it, check out the real thing here: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/AT-AP 2. Except for the minifigs & weapons, the Dropship sucks megablocks! :-P 3. The Minifigs in Rogue Shadow are not as expected? True, but COME ON, people: A BATTLE DAMAGED VADER!!! Isn't that the coolest thing? I mean how long have we hoped that TLC would bring out something battle damaged? :'-) However, I think LEGO did a very good job on these sets and I can't wait 'til 2008! I still have some questions, though: 1. The wheels of the Hailfire Droid seem to be made out of chains (the old kind). Does anybody have an idea what makes them stand in this ring shape? 2. How does the Clone Wars - Anakin look like, and what other sets beside Ani's Fighter and the V19 Torrent Starfighter will come out? Which minifigs can we ezpect? 3. Did anybody else notice that an interrestng new lego-piece is going to be released in 2008? It's that yellow round piece built into the front of Anakin's Fighter that is covered by 1x6 tiles. It's a plate version of the 4x4 Round Brick. You can also see it on top of the Rebel Scout Speeder, in front of the drum troll in 7048 Trolls' Attackship, as the table top of 5614 The Good Magician, and as part of the cement mixer in 5610 Building Worker. I think it's about time that something like that comes out (it clompletes the family of round bricks\plates) and am looking forward to them. I can't tell, though, if it has has one of those X-holes that round bricks\plates tend to have. Would be useful. Can anybody tell? 4.Why do "Spider Droids" look like mosquitos? Why do all Seperatist vehicles look like bugs anyway?! ;-) 5. WHAT DOES THE GENERAL GRIEVOUS MODEL LOOK LIKE AND WHEN DOES IT COME OUT??? I don't care about the price 'cause Grievous rocks and I'm gonna get the set anyway! So, If you found this interesting and\or know the answer to one of my questions, write me! ;-) X-D Peace Out!
