LEGO Star Wars 2024 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
CloneCommando99 replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
According to some guy called carterbricks04 the U-Wing will have 5 figures. One of them being Dedra Meero. Cassian is a no brainer. So the question is who are the remaining 3 figures. I’d like to bet K2S0 and maybe Melshi. But that still leaves one figure that could literally be anyone in season 2. (Or a Trooper) -
*Cough, Pacific Rim Uprising, Cough* Is this what Absolute Bats watches on an Absolute daily basis? Well at least there’s evidence for more Superman sets. In other DC news, Kyle Chandler has been cast as Hal Jordan. Bright Side: He looks good for the role. (much better than Brolin) And he’s a great actor. I liked him in Godzilla KOM and Wolf of Wall Street. Down Side: His contract doesn’t include movies. So he is likely going to die in season 1, or John will be taking Kyle’s parallax storyline yet again. Kyle has been confirmed to not be coming until at least chapter 2. Either way it looks like John will be the main lantern. I don’t think Gunn’s going to do the GLC proper justice. Firstly, the series is set on earth purely in the American Heartland not in space where all the different Lantern Corps are. Secondly: Hal Jordan, the Lantern who is integral to fleshing out the mythos in the comics is likely going to die rather quickly. Finally: John Stewart doesn’t have as many good solo storylines as Hal, he’s a good character, but Gunn will probably be taking stories from other Lanterns and giving them to John. Which would be frustrating for fans of said other lanterns. Don’t get me wrong. I’m still just glad to be getting any Lantern content at all after so long. Help me Jessica Cruz. You’re the best Lantern out of those who haven’t been confirmed to not show up. (I know I probably am overreacting, I’m just addressing some of my concerns)

Ok the Superman figure looks good. Albeit it could have done with some abs. I just hope there’s an alternate heat vision face print. Please let it just be a a Lex Mech. I will be buying this set. It’s my only chance of a future GL mech. He is the law in a lawless place. He is the watchful protector who never sleeps. He is the Antithesis to Anakin. He is The Sandy Knight

So Plo and Wolffe? (Or a 442nd trooper if based off ROTS) Can’t wait to see how the Clone Bros will reason that they’ve been neglected this time. 3/4 of known 2025 Play-sets are TCW based. 3/6 18+ sets are Prequel based, including the largest of the entire 1HY. UCS Turbo Tank and Gozanti. I will now be eagerly awaiting a General Kenobi minifig. The most dashing version of that son of a Gundark. -

“We stand here amidst my achievement. Not yours!” But yes. We are so unbelievably back!!! U-Wing and ARC-170 are officially on my shopping list next year. Well said. Truly an analogy on par with Aristotle. -

Other hopes for June: Imperial Army BP: 3 Army Troopers and a Stormtrooper. (Build is a imperial riot control speeder) Commander Cody Mech Chimera Microfighter: Thrawn -

My God…. The Nerf-herders actually did it. Mandr won (watch him still complain somehow, even after this next piece of information) Cool, but why does Lego need 2 Jedi Starfighters in the same year? It’s what’s making me think that one is Bantha excrement. DaveBricks1995 also says that an AT AT Pilot helmet is incoming. Here’s hoping for Commander Wolffe. No matter the cost, no matter what sacrifices we must make. We must ensure that any and all Andor sets sell well. Also hopefully if the June wave is Andor oriented we get a Army Trooper BP. -

There’s supposedly going to be an AT AT pilot helmet next year. No set number as of yet. But it comes from the same guy who said U-wing (DaveBricks1995) -

LET’S KRIFFING GO!!!! (I hope for K2SO and Dedra Meero as figures, maybe even Mon Mothma and a Army or Death Trooper) Calm. Kindness, kinship. Love. I’ve given up all chance at financial stability, I’ve made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts. I wake up every day to a build I started 15 years ago from which there’s only one conclusion: I’m damned for what I do. My anger, my ego, my unwillingness to yield, my eagerness to build, they’ve set me on a path from which there is no escape. I yearned to be a savior against price increases without contemplating the cost, and by the time I looked down, there was no longer any bricks beneath my feet. What is… what is my sacrifice? I’m condemned to use the bricks of my enemy to defeat them. I burn my bank account for someone else’s future. I burn my life, to make a set that I know I’ll never see. No, the ego that started this build will never have a mirror, or an audience, or the light of gratitude. So what do I sacrifice? Everything. -

Why is venom stealing stuff instead of eating people? Is he stupid? Is it actually venomised Black Cat?!! Thundebolts is looking promising. -

Two words for why we shouldn’t compare the 2. LICENSING COSTS -

I do think that Lego has been getting too overpriced in many cases recently. But occasionally we do get excellent value sets. (Dropship vs Speeder, Clone vs Droids BP and Tantive Hallway come to mind. I too would like to know this. -

TFP Beast Hunters Optimus is the DC Absolute Universe’s Batmobile confirmed?!!!! -
Apparently the Dark Falcon sold out in many stores on the first day.

I do think that Lego is moving away from being predominantly kids, as seen with the exponential increase in 18+ sets. But it’s still for kids. I do think that there are far too many 18+ and gimmick sets at the moment. As they are taking away set slots that could have been for more unique play sets. I feel like the decreased amount of battle packs over the last few years are a testament to this. And yeah, I do agree with @Daiman that we could do with cheaper 1-2 minifig sub £15 sets. They would be cheap ways for kids to make their SW stories and would make excellent stocking fillers at Christmas. (AT RT, Imperial Checkpoint, Imperial Speeder, Barc Speeder, Crab Droid, Bacta Tank and a Command Console just to name a few)

I like these. Though we did get a play-scale capital ship this year, as well as the Home One in January. So I’m not sure about the nebulon B. But still, excellent predictions. How many points do I get for these? To be fair, 2021 was a pretty easy year to guess. (There was no way Lego wouldn’t have capitalised on the Armoured Marauder, BB Shuttle, Light Cruiser and Slave One (sorry, Boba Fett’s Starship) -

But then I would be risking it being out of stock and not being able to get one at all. Is the retirement date still Jan 1st? Or was that false? -

I’m guessing that there’s no chance of the Rebels vs Imps getting a price decrease. Since it’s a Lego exclusive. -

Fair enough. TFP Beast Hunters Optimus is perfect for a construction figure imo. He doesn’t need a vehicle mode because he is the vehicle!!!
