CloneCommando99

Good to have you back. Believe me, the moment normal battlepacks go above £20 I’m out of getting any straight from Lego. I’ll wait for Amazon to roll out the clearance heavy discounts. Though you could say I’m already doing my part to boycott overpriced BPs since I just won’t support this lazy and unnecessary excuse of a BP. And yes. You’re not alone in thinking this is a waste of a BP. Should have gone to Rebels or Empire or both or as you suggested been at least full Mando. Not to a clone legion repeat. There’s only one reason someone would fear having an apprentice. Guys, I think moderator @MKJoshA is a Sith Lord. BUT I CALLED DIBBS!!! IT’S MINE!! WHAT’S MINE IS MINE, MINE AND MINE, AND MINE, AND MINE, AND MINE! AND NOT YOURS! I would do a one does not simply land on Endor meme. But the Sith among us has already done that today.

Scalpers are in shambles right now. Nothing makes me happier.

On the 9th Day of Christmas, Lego sent to me: Nine Nazgûl a riding, Eight Stormtroopers a missing The 7th Fleet a scheming Six Consulars a praying, Five Green Lanterns and their rings, Four Republic Commandos, Three Imperial Venators, Two KOTOR Sith, and a TIE Avenger for free Day #253. Say it with me boys. 9849 remake. I know it’s early to tell. But I reckon Lego overestimated the demand for the 332nd BP. Not many are talking about it compared to the 327th or Clone v Droid when they released. But that’s just the online space. I commend my countrymen for getting this one thing right. (We seem to be botching everything else) I remember being upset at not being able to get the 501st BP for 3 months back in 2020. And then in a rush to preorder the AT TE in 2022 just in case. How times have changed. UCS TANALORR IS MINE!!!! Where is my ISD bridge Lego?! Same here. I believe we also knew the distribution of sets based off new content by January in 2023. And then it was around Friday a week from now in 2024 when we received info on Cal Kestis, Young Leia, Peridia and the Sith Infiltrator. Same energy as the Avengers Doomsday clock.

You see. Instead of doing the singular gold Batman minifigure. I think Lego should have taken a quasi Ninjago 15th/ SW 25th Approach and done 5 exclusive Batman variants that we wouldn’t get otherwise: Superbat (World’s Finest), Dawnbreaker/ GL Batman (Dark Knights/ BatB), Red Death (Dark Knights), Flashpoint, Nightwing Batman (Knightfight) and Batman Beyond. My candidate for a set like this Absolute Batman riding Absolute Killer Croc against a Bane mech/ Buildable figure?

I believe a set of coasters with the Legacy suits leaked a few weeks ago. What’s interesting though was that the Nya one depicts a remastered version of her Possession suit. Which suggests that Possesion and/ or Skybound sets with that suit are on the cards. Though it might just be Nya. What? You don’t like how Ninjago has turned into Pacific Rim? /s The mechs are cool, but we could do with some more larger sets that aren’t just titan mechs or dragons. (Misfortune’s Keep!!!)

New year. Same mission. On the Eighth day of Christmas, Lego sent to me: 8 Stormtroopers a missing The 7th Fleet a scheming Six Consulars a praying, Five Green Lanterns and their rings, Four Republic Commandos, Three Imperial Venators, Two KOTOR Sith, and a TIE Avenger for free (Day #252) Tbf, DC just doesn’t get sets. In the name of the TIE Avenger, I charge you to be brave. In the name of the Andor, I charge you to be just. In the name of the Mara, I charge you to defend the innocent. Arise, @BrickPrick, a knight of Eurobricks. Same. Labradors are just the best. Yeah. I need the June, August and 14+ July set names. ASAP. Just at least one good imperial set. I beg you Lego. (it’d also be nice to make a financial plan early in the year)

Look on the bright side: This pretty much confirms that Legacy will stay over the next couple of years. Lego’s just not going to leave the money on the table. Kai season 2 Fire Mech, Raid Zepplin, Ghost Mech… they’re all within grasp!!

It’s a shame the 6160 Ultimate Universe is ending before we can get any sets. The best we can ever hope for is Iron Lad showing up in a Hall of Armour at some point. Ultimates is honestly the my favourite Marvel book in years. Easily a top 3 out of current ongoings for me. If we could get a Comic based battle set or a new battlepack subtheme to introduce these variants of characters, I would love it. Easily my favourite versions of Jim Hammond and America Chavez.

On the Seventh Day of Christmas Lego sent to me The 7th Fleet a scheming Six Consulars a praying, Five Green Lanterns and their rings, Four Republic Commandos, Three Imperial Venators, Two KOTOR Sith, and a TIE Avenger for free (Day #251)

Which one is DC?

I personally think that a Hall of Justice is more likely than a Daily Planet. I mean, it’d probably be the DC version of the X-Mansion. Seeing how 4 out the 9-10 likely minifigures are already available. Like with Storm and the X-Jet. We have: Batman, Superman, Lex and Jonkler. Like the X-Mansion already having Storm, Wolverine, Cyclops and Rogue ready to go. That means at minimum all Lego needs to make are: Green Lantern, Aquaman, Wonder Woman and Flash (using the Captain America helmet). Then that would still leave 2-3 slots for other heroes or villains (likely Martian Manhunter and another iconic villain like Sinestro, Cheetah or even Star Sapphire based on her DCAU appearance and reusing Batwoman’s cowl.)

On the Sixth Day of Christmas Lego sent to me: Six Consulars a praying, Five Green Lanterns and their rings, Four Republic Commandos, Three Imperial Venators, Two KOTOR Sith, and a TIE Avenger for free (Day #250 of pestering everyone until a TIE Avenger is achieved) Well my prediction and attitude to Disney is basically this when it comes to M&G merch: Any child or fan-girl who would want to buy a Grogu plushie or toy, who is evidently what the focus of merch will be on due the film’s stupid name, will have had more than five years at this point to buy one, a movie isn’t going to make them buy more in this economy. Even though Mando is exclusive to D+ the Baby Yoda became a cultural phenomenon back in the early 2020s. But despite this, as I’ve mentioned before, I volunteer in a Cancer Research charity shop, and in the past year we’ve recieved a quite a lot of sealed Baby Yoda and ST toys from donations to put on 50-75% off. The merch sales are going to be handicapped by the fact they’ll be relying the exact same plushie that people have had the last 5 years to buy. Lego will do ok because it has more versatility, but other Toy companies are kinda screwed for the merch imo. The same could be argued for Mando himself but to a lesser extent. But that’s just my prediction . Oh it’s definitely a combo. But it’s becoming less and less so in Lego’s favour. Say what you want about Clone Bros, but Lego definitely rules the roost with Clone Army building. A highly profitable endeavour that only Lego is able to due to its battlepacks and cult following. You don’t see anyone army building vintage series or black series. Ironically evident that it’s leaning in Lego’s favour since Lego’s making more clone sets instead of promoting Skeleton Crew and Acolyte. I don’t think the decision to ignore what was supposed to be last year’s flagship show would have come from Disney.

On the fifth day of Christmas, Lego sent to me: Five Green Lanterns and their rings, Four Republic Commandos, Three Imperial Venators, Two KOTOR Sith and a TIE Avenger for free (Day #249) What can I say? I’m ready to for my heart to be broken again.

It’s still unlikely, but that gives me some hope. They’d probably be looking for ways to bleed minifigs as well. Since only Man, Jonkler, Soup and Billionaire Bald have minifigs. GL mech with a shared Superman villain like Zod? Reusing Doctor Strange face print of course.

On the fourth day of Christmas, Lego sent to me: Four Republic Commandos, Three Imperial Venators, Two KOTOR Sith And a TIE Avenger for free. Day #248 of our noble cause. 75458 looks promising though. With a piece count of 775 and unlike the rest of the June sets, it’s not listed as M&G based.

On the Third Day of Christmas, Lego sent to me: Three Imperial Venators Two KOTOR Sith and a TIE Avenger for freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. (Day #247)

Wow these are all amazing imperial Outpost. Just a peak set concept. With the greatest of all anniversary figures. Clone Specialists Battlepack: love the concept and more minifigure scale AT RT. Sand Trooper BP. Excellent dewback build and I love the idea of a mid-cloaking Shadowlord trooper minifig Battle of Hoth. A fun expansion on the new dual BP remake subtheme. Dagan Gera. TANALORR WILL BE MINE!!! Ultimate Coruscant Space Battle. Well designed and a much needed set. Just a phenomenal job. I hope we see a few of your ideas realised in the next few years.

On the 2nd Day of Christmas Lego sent to me: Two KOTOR Sith And a TIE Avenger for free Day #246 Very nice. I got two Night Trooper Battlepacks and a Plo Koon’s Microfighter. Preach brother Now, I eagerly await summer 2026 set news.

On the first day of Christmas Lego sent to me… A TIE Avenger for free. (#245, my friends. And I wish you all a very merry Christmas)

Merry Christmas everyone

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the forum Not a Eurobrick poster was stirring, not even a turtle; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that TIE Avenger soon would be there; The AFOLs were nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of Gingerbread AT ATs danced in their heads; And Dave Filoni with his Grogu, and Kevin Feige with his Cap, Had just turned off their brains for a nostalgia bait slap… (Day #244, complete the story if you dare…)

Away in a hangar, no imperial for a pilot, The little TIE Avenger armed its sweet warheads. The stars in the sky looked down where it lay, The little TIE Avenger, activated on the floor. The Range Troopers are deploying, the TIE awakes, But little TIE Avenger, no mercy it takes; I love Thee, TIE Avenger, look down from the sky And stay on my console till morning is nigh. Be near me, TIE Avenger, I ask Thee to be made Close by me forever, and built by me, I pray; Bless all the dear rebels in Thy tender care, And fit us for Yavin to live with Thee there (Day #243 of asking for a Tie Avenger) Oh wow. That’s way better than what I came up with today. The carolling is very fun, good job. And over the 12 days of Christmas… SW modular, Videogame set or MBS ISD bridge Hopefully. Let’s just hope there’re not too many 18+, 10+ and 12+ age ratings in there (Buildables). I’d argue that it’s one of the 3 most overdue imperial vehicles to get made. (TIE Reaper, TIE Avenger and ITT) At this point it’s appeared quite frequently: JFO, Outlaws, Rebels, Mando… A imperial remnant BP would be very welcome as well. But it’s contested in my desires with Army Troopers and JFO Stormtrooper/ Scout Troopers. Nah, I expect it to be like the Rocket GOTGV3 set. Probably. But I imagine they’ll need to retire the 327th BP first to make either Mando’s or a regular clone AT RT with a standard 501st trooper and B1.

Grond GWP?

Very funny

I mean. I could kinda see the 3000 piece set being a D2C Batcave for all the Batmobiles. But LegoMinecraftGoat said on Bricktap that they’re all listed as marvel. At least we’re starting to get interesting ones that aren’t just Keaton or Bale. Arkham and Beyond would be awesome.
