There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the clone sets. Remember this. Balanced waves are a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and with instructions. Random acts of non-TCW sets are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole fans of movies, trilogies that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the non-TCW SW fans is everywhere. And even the smallest act of non TCW sets pushes our lines forward. And then remember this. The clone bro need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Brown bricks are brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these purchases and builds, these moments of building will have flooded the banks of the clone bro authority and then there will be one too many. One single set will break the siege. Remember this. Buy (The Andor U-Wing).

I’ve seen the new SW summer wave news. Hehehehehehehehheheehehheheheheheheheheheheheheheehehheehhehehehehehehehehehehhehehhehehehehehehehehheeehheheheheheehehhahahahhahahahaahhahhhehhahehahehhahhehaehahehaehhahehahehahehahehahehehahehhahehhahhohehohahohehohaheha

Me to Maxbaut right now: 75433 is supposedly a ship. It has to be a bad guy vehicle. Right? The MTT can’t be the only play-scale bad guy vehicle for the entire year. Right? It has to be an imperial set of some sort to counter the U-Wing. Right? It has to be an imperial patrol gunship or tie defender. Right? We can ignore @Renown telling us to temper our expectations. Right? I’m definitely not high on copium. Right?

Don’t worry I know what you ment. There’s a difference between Clone Fans (such yourself, myself and the majority of people) and Clone Bros (such as Mandr, Lifebricks, etc) Yay. Whoever keeps buying these, will you please stop?!

I’m praying to the Lego gods for that 3rd figure to be CW Armour Obi-Wan with arm printing. That figure alone could improve the summer wave significantly for me. Agreed. Imperial Patrol Gunship is also perfect for this. megabluck clone bros! All my homies hate clone bros. They’re low key ruining the theme. @THELEGOBATMAN: Bro why? I thought Merrin was mine (so is Tanalorr) Anyway in other news. According to Rad, apparently 75433 is a ship and there’s one more buildable droid in the 2HY. Why???????!!!!!!!!!!!

As it was written All the more to fuel the Aslume I think 2008-13 back when TCW was literally the only new thing releasing so it was understandable. But now there’s so much content that it’s just frustrating. I for one was holding out for either an Imperial Patrol Gunship, ITT or Tie Defender to loosely tie into Rebels’ 10th anniversary. But nope Clone fans have to be the only ones who eat good with the faction-based sets that are released. I’m fully expecting the remaining sets to be character specific vehicles (like Luke’s Landspeeder.) For me, 2025 is looking quite bleak. The only thing that could save it for me are either: A) a Green Lantern mech in the summer (chances of getting one are lower than finding a snowflake on Tatooine), B) one of the remaining SW sets being a cool imperial vehicle (no chance of this), or B) The 18+ AT ST set is a actually a Battle of Endor with a cool bunker build. 327th BP is awesome though. Dark times are upon us. I think Lego Order 66’d all the Empire / Rebel era play-sets. Andor U-Wing and Night Troopers were the only survivors. Clones are cool. But they’re not everything important about SW, something in don’t think Clone Bros realise. If the V-19 is indeed based off 2003 CW (Fordo and ARC Trooper please!!) I might need to get it. 2003 CW leads to more non-canon sets, more non-canon sets leads to Legends sets, Legends sets leads to Mara Jade and Delta Squad. More importantly Mara Jade.

Very nice. Agreed. On both fronts. Awesome! Those rebel scum are about to get wiped! I’m beginning to see a theme with the type of battles you are choosing for these dioramas. The more moral side always dies. And it’s in no way close at that.

I hope we get Fugidove as a minifig in the crossroads

Cheers for the warning. That was unexpected. Ok. I’m fully expecting Buildable Mandalorian and Luke’s Landspeeder now. “Expect disappointment and you’ll never be disappointed” - The MJ that’s about to be visited by Mephisto. “And they called me a madman” First the Andor S2 first look. Then the return of Kyle Rayner to White Lantern status. And now the likely coming of a V-19 based off 2003 CW. Maybe I am the chosen one? I too would like to know this. LSW has created so many possible avenues for disappointing recently.

I’m just waiting for some details for the final 3 unaccounted for set numbers. 75428, 75432 and 75433. Scratch that, one will have to be the Clone Pilot set. Two unaccounted set numbers. Ok never mind. I’m putting a lot of hope on the final two completely unknown set numbers. But I’m realistically only hoping for one good set. I don’t trust Lego enough to not make a buildable mando. When do you think we will get some of that info? I’d rather rip off the band aid sooner than later if it’s disappointing news.

Can’t wait for Batman to get 5 different book books in the next 2 years, whilst Action Comics #1, JLA, GL, WW and JLI are completely ignored.

Don’t forget Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland.

Farewell. Thread. Very fitting that the announcement of the 2025 thread brought us to the 300th page.

I love that the one thing constant in all divisions of the empire is that lucasfilm refuses to realease a definitive rank guide. Scout Troopers are part of what I, and the British Army, would call a combat support unit. They’d be their own separate platoon working alongside the company. Usually there’s 1 Platoon, 2 Platoon, 3 Platoon and the combat support platoon in a company. A Company, B Company, C Company and Support Company in a battalion. @Max_Lego: Love the custom builds and minifigures. That Defender is absolutely gorgeous. Nice rank compilation. I prefer the ABY rank insignias, much easier to remember. I really like those. Large group of troops close together whilst creating an action packed scene. Shame they’re all going to die.

You have to use pauldrons to distinguish field officers/ NCOs (The following is according to wookiepedia) Black = corporal or just a normal sand trooper / magma trooper (personally I use these to distinguish special security) White = sergeant Red = squad leaders (I think this means lieutenants) Orange = Captain All the colours have been made. But only for sand troopers, death troopers and FO stormtroopers. I’m hoping that Lego uses the new plastic cape material to make pauldrons in the near future, Fair enough. New republic A-Wing with Carson Teeva, Zeb, NR trooper and/ or a NR navy officer would be the dream (could triple as a New Republic, Rebel and Resistance set)

Thank you for your replies so far guys. They’ve been really interesting. Same here. My entire 501st contingent is grouped with a few light vehicles on my shelf. Fair enough. The last non X-wing rebel starfighter was in 2019. (I do not count the E-Wing since that’s a New Republic vehicle) and the separatists need something to counter the Clones’ ridiculously sized arsenal compared to other factions. Relatable. I kinda take away the droids’ blasters and give them to the troopers who came from 2014-2020 battlepacks. Wow. That’s really convenient for you. I hope they turn out well. Lot’s of variety in display. I respect it. Thanks. Though these are just some of my grunts. It doesn’t include starfighter corps, navy, specialised units and special forces personnel. Impressive. Most impressive. I like how you make sure that you have a clear leadership for each faction instead of just using un-named officers or just stacking troops, it adds some personality. This is the way. (But honestly I’d prefer to get one BP with Maul’s Mandos so their could be an antagonistic faction to the good rainbow mandos) I admire the ambition. Let me know when you release it. I’d love to see how it turns out. A truly mighty military you’ve accumulated, even if unintentional. I love your customs. They show that you’ve really put the effort into making the full on cast for your intended production. I too would like this. Especially if it had a modular function as it’d really help me build an imperial base. Thanks! I figured that it was a massive pillar of the LSW community about which the specifics weren’t brought up much on the forum. Does anyone else use a command structure between factions? (I use this when I engage in my ‘tabletop Lego wars’ with friends. In charge of my navy I have Admiral Raddus as IC (In Command) and Vice-Admiral Sloane as 2IC (2nd In Command) In charge of my army I have General Hux as IC and General Veers as 2IC. Below them I have Cody, Rex and Fox as division commanders. (The high command are the most incompetent out of my divisions (most damage is done by Hux as Veers isn’t actually that bad) but are supplemented by good field commanders) In charge of my starfighter corps I have General Merrick as IC and Commander Oddball as the incoming 2IC (yet to get new ARC-170) In charge of my intelligence unit I have Agent Kallus (soon to be replaced as IC by Dedra Meero) In overall command I have Tarkin. By the alone fact that he’s the highest ranking non-force sensitive I own. Un-named officers fulfil various duties within the different divisions.

I smell heresy

When do you guys reckon we’ll hear more about the spider-verse CMF? I want to see whether the character roster is worth it not being DC S2 or Marvel S3.

Maybe the “in more ways than one” refers to there being a second ship in the set? Both the killer and the killed? Suggesting that it’s a full set based off the scene where original gold leader dies (in universe) Edit: But, on the other hand, I did some research. There were also gold leaders at the battles of Anaxes and Muunilist. And I know the latter’s legends but… during that battle this exact phrase was spoken: "Commander, we lost Gold Leader." It would also fit with the knowledge (from Max-Baut) we’re getting a P1 Clone Pilot in the summer, and the starfighters in that battle were V-19 torrents (Could we get Fordo?!!) The ‘in more ways than one’ could also possibly mean we’re getting both a V-19 and a rebel y-wing. But that’s just a theory…. A Commando theory. If Lego followed that logic, we shouldn’t be getting Ben Kenobi, Black Panther, Adam West Batman, Princess Leia or Darth Vader minifigs Would be cool. But I doubt it.

Ah yes. I believe it’s a metaphor for the Snyder Cult.

I’m curious as to how everyone army builds differently. Do you separate your units? Do you separate factions? Do you form different divisions? Do you have a preference in formations? Do you use different formations for differently sized units? Do you incorporate vehicles into the display? Do you army build one faction exclusively? What size and colour of baseplate do you use if any? Is there a specific trooper type you army build? Do you even army build at all? Here’s a small example of how I do it: And finally: if Lego could make 3 sets that you’d like solely for the purpose of improving your LSW army, what would they be? I’d love to hear how you guys do it. It’ll be interesting to see how everyone differentiates from each other and whether there are some constants.

Luigi. Is this even a question?

Maybe we should dial back the Man references. What vehicle do you guys think the Batcave will include?

Mark Shitto! Can’t wait for Paul to be in the Oscorp modular when it comes round.
