  1. Oh shoot, somehow my over-eagerness level returned and i totally missed your reply. But as i will never be tired of saying... better late than never. Regarding your question, while Cad Bane is definitely among my favorite characters and i am looking forward to the reveal for sure, other than Jedi Bob's Starfighter, i wasn't too eager about all other RTG sets. So it's more of a wait and see approach for me. Even though it would not be the first Snowspeeder i primarily got for an exclusive minifig... the 20th anniversary one says hi. However, seeing you already brought up this topic, i wanna elaborate by saying: i stopped holding out hope that the most recent Cad Bane from the unjustifiable Justifier set would be cheaply released elsewhere in an Advent Calendar, a Magazine, Microfighter, as a Keychain etc. So i jumped the gun and brick linked this thing of beauty last month. It's my first Cad Bane minifigure and i am very happy with it. How about you... Got any minifigure that is near and dear to you? Anything in particular you still want to add to your collection?
  2. The pleasure is all mine to finally be part of this community. Another happy landing. Thank you so much. I intend to do so soon.
  3. Okay, so my definitely biased, character-only whichlist, excluding versions/variants of already existing ones, based on what i would consider the core Skywalker Saga to be in terms of movies is as follows: The Phantom Menace Boss Nass. I can not believe we are still missing him. Like he is not exactly an obscure character to begin with. Last years 25th anniversary was a big opportunity to put him in the Visual Dictionary. But nope... can not have it. Was probably not popular enough to even bother cranking up the budget. At least compared to the Darth Maul replica we got instead. Which did not even match the rest of the minifigure lineup. Shmi Skywalker. Same as above. Truly mindboggling we never recieved this minifigure, too. Could have been a good inclusion with the Mos Espa Podrace Diorama. But just because it is of micro-scale format, Lego thinks it would be a good idea to not include any figures at all. It's not like there could be a separate stand or plate for it or anything. Attack of the Clones Dexter Jettster. Most logical inclusion would be in his very own dinner, duh. Which would work well within the Diorama Collection. There are some magnificent MOCs out there. I do not know if you could just recolor Pong Krell's old mold for the torso, though. Revenge of the Sith Tion Medon. Just put him in the blue Jedi Interceptor (alongside Obi-Wan and R4-P9) as equivalent to Taun We from the Delta-7 Starfighter. I wish there would be more consistency when it comes to that third figure's inclusion. Especially considering these crazy price hikes we had the last couple of years. A New Hope Hem Dazon. I was slightly bummed he was skipped over in the absolutely amazing Mos Eisley Cantina MBS. He is like the very first good shot we ever had about an alien in the Star Wars universe... incredibly iconic. You could slowly but surely fill in the blanks by releasing new Cantina playsets. The Empire Strikes Back Admiral Ozzel. He could show up in some sort of future set. Many imperial higher-ups are still missing. The most recent addition of Commander Praji in the Star Destroyer is a somewhat good sign for things to come. Ozzel may have a choking or concerned impression for his second face, akin to Captain Antilles from the Boarding the Tantive IV set. Return of the Jedi Sy Snootles. Would come in a new Jabba's Palace (this time with a roof again, pretty please) and of course require a new body mold. Would work with regular legs, too. Obviously, lots of other characters would be possible from that place. Those never before done characters are just supposed to be a mere sample off of the very top of my head. You could most certainly still write your testament about all these missing minifigures.
  4. My thanks. As long as i get paid, it makes no difference to me. By the way, i have been following your career with great interest. I honestly feel honoured to finally be able to join the conversation about them precious pieces of plastic.
  5. Well, thank you. And alright... good to know. Easy enough to follow. Still got some catching up to do with this thread. Can not wait to get properly started.
  6. Hello there. After spending what felt like half an eternity as a silent Kallidahin (totally did not search for quiet Star Wars species) a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, i finally decided the timing was just right to say a thing or two as well. I just wanna be extra clear on this... You are allowed to talk about all those juicy leaks, just not share any visuals about them in here. Have i got this right? Best regards, BrickPrick
