Kessel run millennium falcon from Solo had a single Pyke minifig.

Agreed. That’s what makes me think that dark side Rey is the falcon’s anniversary figure as there is A) a lack of villains and B) a lack of female characters. However there are some characters I would prefer: Republic Crosshair, Mara Jade, Mon Mothma, Klaud, Dedra Meero, Rebels Hondo and Commander Pyre from Resistance.

I honestly think that Fives looks good. Sure, the helmet print isn’t as accurate as it could be but it looks recognisable enough and it isn’t the end of the world since he comes as an extra to a great set. I do hope they do better and go above and beyond with Cal Kestis in the summer though. (arm printing and printed poncho)

I think Fives has a backpack as if you look closely there’s a black outline trailing his back.

Ahsoka already fits that slot though. I still think it could be Maul. With the lack of dark side characters and Lego celebrating the 25th anniversary of TPM it makes sense.

Good point. I wasn’t thinking about the whole prospect of it. What’s the probability that Director Krennic will be a figure in the Death Star playset? It’s slightly different to Mon Mothma not being in Yavin as he’s the guy who built the space station.

How would they even do that? Thrawn to the casual fan and average child is only recognisable as the red eyed Blue man in a white imperial uniform. It wouldn’t work.

501st Trooper, super battle droid, Ahsoka from the T6, Christmas Luke and Leia + 1 more which we don’t know about. So that’s where my speculation comes in.

Who do you guys think is going to be the final figure in the advent calendar? With the lack of villains (apart from the B2) that we know I think it’s probably going to be a dark side character so hopefully Darth Maul or a stormtrooper.

Knowing Lego there is a chance they’d do that. But Jokes aside, I’m my mind, it’d preferably include: Kyle Rayner (since his constructs are more detailed so more suitable for a mech) and a printed animal accessory either Green Lantern Bd’g (squirrel) or Red Lantern Dextarr (Cat)

I just want a Green Lantern mech. C’mon Lego is that too much to ask?!

If they do the turbo tank with shiny clones it could also double as a ROTS set for the 20th anniversary.

Maybe next year, especially the turbo tank, we don’t appear to have a September wave this year.

Actually I’m of the opinion that there should be a lot more generic troopers than officers, imperial navy and stormtroopers, as who else is going to guard the station whilst the officers are having their meeting? I am however gonna be high on hopium and predict that there will be a stormtrooper battlepack next January to fill up the Death Star.

I have a New Hope that you’re right. But jokes aside I hope that the minifig selection is 100% imperial military (apart from Cal) and if they could do a mix of both death stars for the officers (my preferences are Admiral Motti and Moff Jerjerrod) that would be great!

I’m praying that the Death Star playset is not a full sphere and is like the Kenner playset. As I have the 2016 Death Star and I want to justify getting this one in the summer for Cal and to expand my imperial military with figs and a new base. Also do you think the original rumoured fig selection is the correct one?

If Lego’s going to start doing larger vehicles as minifigure scale UCS sets. Who else wants a UCS Imperial Gozanti class cruiser for the 15th anniversary of Rebels? Or a republic frigate. Preferably based on Clone Wars but a TPM diplomatic variant could be cool as well.

Just out of interest, isn’t the Tantive hallway playset supposed to be modular? If so could it mean that a Home one briefing room and bridge could release next year and connect with the hallway? If not I would love the Death Star playset to be the start of an imperial base sub-line. One akin to the Ironman hall of armour sets. As in they can connect together to make one big imperial base.

I doubt they’d include a mini Tie advanced. But with the emphasis on generic Imperial Military Personnel I wouldn’t be surprised if an armoury is included. What I do hope however is that all the rooms connect with an enclosed corridor and sliding doors. That and the officer is a proper Imperial captain (3 blue squares, 3 red squares) It’s the most common officer uniform in the OT and I don’t think Lego’s actually made it.

Hello, new here. Does anyone else think that the Death Star playset could perhaps include a hangar control centre? As the rumoured minifigure selection from MaxBaut would fit in perfectly with that room. (In my opinion.)
