I do think there is a bit more substance in 03 Clone Wars than you give credit. Mainly Anakin's character, we see him go from a whiny padawan, to the Jedi knight we see in ROTS. He has much better character development in 03 then 08 Clone Wars. 03 Clone wars is more limited by it's length but I think it still hits all the important parts of the clone wars in a couple hours.

Ideally they'd just remake the $13 wizard battle set.

My ranking of all the Star Wars shows I've seen: 1. 03 Clone Wars 2. 08 Clone Wars 3. Andor 4. Mandalorian 5. Rebels 6. TBoBF 7. Kenobi Note: I haven't watched Mando s3 so that might affect the ranking.

Yeah I still my fly my sets around sometimes. Exactly. My favorite set to swoosh is the 2010 ARC-170, I love opening the wings. Also any set with those old rubber tipped missiles are a lot of fun. Seems a bit silly to me to put Lego in a display case and never touch it again. Smart bricks are definitely pointless though and don't justify the upcharge for sounds you can make with your mouth.

I was so done with the theme after seeing the smart brick slop, but the Endor Village and Bounty Hunter Pursuit has rekindled my interest a bit.

To make you guys feel old, I was born the year they switched the greys and browns.

These smart brick sets have killed what little interest I had left in this theme. I'm more excited about what castle or LOTR has to offer this year, and I say this as someone whose always had Star Wars as my #1 theme.

That's me, my first set was in 2007-08. I never even knew old grey and brown existed for a long time.

That's a pretty common sentiment here. Sith you say? My apprentice Darth Zannah and I are the only ones left.

That was a great battle pack, I always liked how the rebel trooper had indiana jones head.

Personally I think Star Wars works better as film medium, for TV shows they should've just stuck to animated stuff. Most of the Disney shows don't even feel like Star Wars to me.

I think the countless shows have made SW as a whole feel less special. I do think a movie every year from 2015-2019 was too much though. A movie every 3 years plus animated shows, comics, books, games is the ideal amount for Star Wars content.

Am I the only one who likes to space out larger sets? For 1000+ piece sets I'll build a couple bags in the morning or night over multiple days.

The 2006 X-wing has got to be up there in terms of longest shelf life.

I disagree, we already have midi scale, playscale, and UCS, another price point is overkill. Hot take: the Falcon isn't even that cool as a display set, like Luke said, it is a piece of junk. Ships like Slave 1, Imperial Shuttle, N1 starfighter, Arc-170, are way more aesthetically pleasing than the Falcon.

I do think ANH has been pretty well covered at this point. Besides the 3 sets I mentioned, they could remake the Sky Hopper and Droid Escape pod. I could also definitely see them doing another UCS Falcon.

I'm only really asking for a few sets like the other anniversaries, Maybe a Sandcrawler, Tantive, Obi Wan vs Vader. I wouldn't expect them to do special figures but we'll see. The LSW 20-25th anniversaries were already celebrations of SW as whole. They'll probably celebrate the 30th in 2029, doing essentially the same thing in 2027-2029 is overkill. I suppose the closest thing we can look back to is 2007 which had chrome c3po in sets, and we got a few ANH sets and of course the UCS Falcon.

It's most definitely incorrect. They acknowledged ESB and ROTJ 40th with multiple sets. 2017 didn't even acknowledge the 40th anniversary if I remember correctly, so it will likely be more than that.

Yeah I think they should focus on ANH for it's 50th anniversary. We also have the 50th anniversary of ESB in 2030, and ROTJ in 2033, and they'll probably do sets specifically for them. A hodgepodge of sets from Star Wars is literally what we already get in year, slapping on an anniversary logo isn't going to mean anything.

I would've preferred an updated Palpatine's arrest over a CTT.

I think we need $100+ sets of Palpatines arrest and duel on Mustafar.

I'm not joking. The Planet sets provide more value to me as I think they look cool on display, unlike micro fighters. I think the planet sets were always aimed at an older teen/adult audience, since there are no play features unlike micro fighters. chibi style looks ugly and would rather just get the microbuild which still looks like the source material, just at a small scale. Since Lego is all in on 18+ sets these days, I think it makes sense to have a display set at a low price point. Also, the bonus is you can use the planet sets as ornaments. Planet sets were peak and we all took them for granted.

Time to bring back planet sets, the superior $10 subline.

I hope you're not serious, it's a just a meme.

Yeah that'd be sick, they could have the hallway interior instead of Leia's office. We could finally get rebel friend. Also Lego needs to bring back real box art for these UCS sets, no more black boxes.
