Sets actually look a lot better than I was expecting. The Turbo Tank and MTT do look like solid £100-110 sets. Figs are overall good. General Kenobi is just 🥵. I really hope he shows up in another set because the V-19 is one of my least favourite star fighter designs. Ewok was a waste of a set slot. And a horrific reminder that we somehow can’t just ignore JediBricks as a ‘leaker’. One minor nitpick which is going to make the Clone Bros insufferable: Bly doesn’t appear to have his torso stripe. The only exclusive about his figure is the helmet. That is not the laziness we want to accept in an already overpriced to heck set. I have friends everywhere. I hope so. This is a battle of the wills between me and Lego. And it’s therefore a good thing I’m a huge Green Lantern fanboy. /s

You’re here! You’re right here! And you’re ready to fight! Hopefully we get a Pieces of the Past trailer soon. RTG is unironically peak comedic SW. It somehow manages to strike a good balance between normal Star Wars, the Lego Movie’s charm and a Minecraft Movie’s meme fest. You know it. Day #40 of Tie Avenger praying.

Same here man. All Lego has to get me back aboard the hype train is for the January 2026 wave to consist of 3 specific sets: Tie Avenger, ISB Tactical Shuttle (Melshi and Kleya being included are non-negotiable) and Army Trooper Battlepack. Lies! Deception! Everyday more lies.

They never set foot anywhere near the Pearl in those uniforms though. But they would be cool, just work better with a Interceptor. Speaking of which, the current rumoured fig list works much better for the Interceptor than the Pearl imo.

Day #39 of Tie Avengering. Yeah. No one’s expecting something like Commander Keller. He’ll obviously be in next year’s Kashyyyk Swamp Speeder 🤪

If we’re getting a Tie Avenger it will have to probably be in 2026 or never. That’s why it should be the next one. Nothing to say the Tie Reaper or Defender couldn’t show up later in the year. It’s just that the Avenger is exclusively tied to Andor, whilst the Defender and Reaper have multiple mediums to keep it relevant. True. You know what I mean. I want it in Spring 2026 or ASAP, before Lego forgets Andor exists.

Yet you are still here? If Star Wars was truly dead then you’d either have to be completely disinterested in the brand, or refuse to consume new content. News flash: new Lego sets themselves, even OT ones, count as new content. And if you really wanted to send Disney a message for ‘killing’ SW then you’d just stop buying their products and letting them profit, including Lego. I disagree, but that’s a respectable opinion. I’d personally keep the canon and make some alterations to keep anything before Mando S3 and canonise the HttE trilogy. Day #38 of asking for the next Tie Fighter to be a Tie Avenger. Dank ferrik Next evolution of Lego’s strategy is… Buildable clone troopers. 10 buildable clone troopers of different legions instead of play-sets a year. You may be suprised.

Well, 5 years old, the first time my father showed me ANH. I was taken in by the pure majesty of the universe. Cool soldiers, stunning spaceships, laser swords. Then Empire and ROTJ solidified my adoration. Followed by TCW and Prequels a few years later. And reaffirmed by Rogue One, Rebels and Battlefront. The plot thickened this decade with the Jedi Games, Andor, TCW S7, Crosshair parts of TBB, Mando S1-2 and when I finally read the Thrawn (HttE, Ascendancy and canon trilogies) and Aftermath books. Lego has always been a constant in how I enjoy the SW brand as well. To say that Disney killed SW is just blatantly wrong imo. Sure, we’ve had some awful things. But I’ll be damned if we haven’t had some of the best SW content ever since 2013. Also Andor S2 pulled the ultimate redemption arc with the fandom after Acolyte (as seen with BF2 resurgence) We need an over ambitious leaker hunting Meero at Lego to accidentally get added to the Death Star group chat/ have all the files dumped on their desk. And before you know it FalconFan1414 and LegoMinecraftGoat are standing somewhere in the Caribbean embracing each other and the great beyond. Which then miraculously leads to some 6 year old named Luke kissing their sister and destroying their Dad’s Death Star 2 days after they’d finished building it. Huh. Good point. Lego’s backed themselves into an unnecessary corner now. Haven’t they? I’m not sure whether we’ll get any more sand-troopers now as they’d need a backpack/ pauldron combo. Behold! The list of all sets that Lego’s probably required to remake in some form within the next 3 years. A-Wing (last released in 2019) Y-Wing (last proper one in 2019) B-Wing (last released in 2014) Imperial Shuttle of any kind (last released in 2021) Luke’s Landspeeder (last released in 2020) AT ST (last released in 2022) AAT (last released in 2020) Vulture Droid (last released in 2014) Emperor’s Throne Room (last released in 2020) Buildable Grogu (last released in 2025, but you know the rules and so do I) Corporate Alliance Tank Droid (last released in 2013) Endor Bunker (come on, it’s been 16 years man) X-Wing ETA Jedi Interceptor Delta 7 Jedi Starfighter Tie Fighter Millennium Falcon

Everyone looks great. I just think that it should have been Scarlet Spider instead of Sun Spider.

Wow. Can’t wait for Lego to ignore the most blatantly obvious movie to make sets for. Somehow Dick is in Tim’s suit and Jason is in Damian’s suit.

We haven’t seen the pauldron from the back yet. Maybe Lego’s been smart and considerate of future uses and placed a stud on the back to accommodate future backpacks. It would also help the stability of the pauldron on the fig and stop it from spinning around if the head’s loose. Day #37 of Tie Avenging - “In a dark place we find ourselves and a little more knowledge lights our way.”

Day #36 of waiting for a big strong Tie Avenger to sweep me off my feet. Death Star leaks have to start soon. Right?

This one was a Maul prediction megabluck. I didn’t get any of these. Sigh Nice likely list. But Lego’s really unpredictable nowadays. Another Maul prediction!

Predictions for Lego DC 2026: Green Lantern Mech vs General Zod: Guy Gardner and General Zod (logical tie in for both Lanterns and Superman) Play-scale Batpod: Joker and The Dark Knight. Batman and Robin Bat-Hammer: Batman and Bat-Credit-Card (no Mr Freeze, Batgirl or Robin) 18+ Buildable 1989 Bat Symbol: 1989 Man and Jonkler UCS Batpod: Woman and Man

The new pauldron is going to work spectacularly well with the current stormtrooper helmet. The helmet’s chin is going to cover up the neck bracket.

Your wish has been granted. And it’s 🔥 Hopefully we can get it in a bunch of different colours next year. I need basic black and red.

Day #35 of waiting for Cassian to come home with the Tie Avenger. (Or any Imperial military/ Rogue One/ Andor play-set at this point) Bor Gullet! Hopefully we can get a Pieces of The Past trailer soon. I’m interested to see which other revamped characters will be showing up.

They wouldn’t have needed to have learned anything if they still made bank on the 2014 MTT. Where is the money going here? It’s not even a troop transport. It’s practically just a vehicle with some extra leg room. Troop transports require space for at least a squad to even be worthy of the name. 6 isn’t even half a squad of droids. 💀 2026 needs to save us. Though I’m not so sure if it will now.

Day #34 of asking for a Tie Avenger. How many Lonni’s do I have to leave on benches to achieve my objective? Here me out: TCW style galactic civil war animated anthology series. Starts when rebels abandon Yavin. Ends with the battle of Jakku. No main characters, but there are more prominent ones. We get arcs featuring: Wedge, Omega, Luke, Leia, Han, Kleya, Wilmon, Hera Zeb, Vel, Mon, Norra Wexley (before Aftermath), Rex, etc…

I can’t armybuild myself into bankruptcy.

The clone pilot appears to be phenomenal. My one gripe is that I do not care for the V-19 as a Starfighter at all. I know I’ve been disdainful of more clone sets recently… but a reuse of this pilot (and maybe General Kenobi) in an attack shuttle next year would really hit the spot.

Unprinted version of the clone Pilot helmet leaked. 🥵

Found a website which enables you to copy and paste in Aurebesh Oh, I’m going to have fun with this.

Nah. Jack’s compass is the lowest my expectations could get.

Excellent. But this is the Aslume. I expect insanity. I’ve also just realised that Hal Jordan and Anakin Skywalker are knockoffs of each other. Let’s have a look: brown haired character who genocides his own order after being corrupted by an evil version of his order’s power due to fear of loss/ having lost what’s important to him, is a very good/ keen pilot, had an orange skinned sidekick back in the day, kills his former best friend, had a badass evil armoured appearance with cape, is a power-scaling nightmare, defeated and redeemed by a successor to the order who was trained by a old guy with white hair who had previously been a mentor to him, that successor then went on to restart the order, successor’s girlfriend was named Jade, still had a presence for the next few years after his physical death as he became a magical spirit…
