  1. Does anyone feel a new Vader is due I would be disappointed if they changed the printing, the current one is spot on, all I think he needs is a Grima Wormtongue style face but on grey with maybe an expression to capture the unmasking from episode VI
  2. Am I alone in thinking that the single hole Darth Malgus cape should be used for Vader? As it hangs straight down just as Vader's does. Brand new the normal capes just look too static, and its strange that the one holed cape has only ever appeared in one set. Also thinking of the Jedi I would also prefer for the Jedi robes to be printed on instead of the capes, I picture printing like that of the long coats used on POTC and the Lone Ranger figs and for the Hood they could print it on the back as they did for Wolverines mask.
  3. Fbtb has pics up of comic con exclusives
  4. I've not bought a TOR set yet I'd be swayed if there was one that came with an awesome part say a different coloured twi lek headpiece or even a real nicely printed bounty hunter piece. I'm glad that the prints are nothing like the clone wars figures!!
  5. Does anyone think TLG will squeeze out the most they can in terms of characters before concentrating on Rebels, Episode 7 etc? Was watching episode 2 and at the Watto scene I wondered how many sets there have been before which could be called boring sets and would Lego ever produce a set from such a simple scene?
  6. Do you guys think we will ever see the return of small sets like the final duels? I know there are the battle packs but they are so clearly aimed at 14 year old army builders :/ Looking back I can't believe that a set so small existed with so much in it. I used to love going to the supermarket and picking those up with what little money I had. I'm hoping with the new movies/shows coming we get the chance to pick up figs in this way.
  7. I'd love for TLG to randomly place a new Moff Tarkin somewhere! I think they are kids toys, some kids don't know the difference, as long as they can associate one thing with another they will play with them and not think anything of it.
  8. Thanks for all the tips guys we find out the gender in a few weeks so we can pin down a few names for certain. Boy or girl I hope it does get into lego but I have a question should I let my kid loose onto my minifigure collection? How much do kids lose things and just how destructive can kids be, I know the printing is near invincible but would I regret all the money I've spent on my minifigs after handing them over? I wouldn't dream of shutting my kid out as its something were bound to bond over.
  9. We had considered Eowyn and Arwen, it's strange how you get used to names. There was a girl at college called Emerald and that didn't stay wierd for long. We've thought about Lalya my girlfriend even suggested Aayla! I'm hoping for a boy to be honest Harry James Blake has already been suggested
  10. Thanks guys, Georgie and I are both English born and bred and we're likely to always live in England.
  11. My girlfriend and I are expecting our first baby in December. We don't know the sex yet but most people think it a girl so at the moment we have been discussing girls names in particular. We are both huge geeks she loves Harry potter, I love everything Star Wars and we both have a love lord of the rings, marvel, dc etc. So I was hoping you guys could help come up with something obscure but geekily nice.
  12. I'm really fond of the original maul, I'm still yet to try him with horns
  13. Mine was the madalorian battle pack, I even went as far as hiding them from my girlfriend until one day I thought meh, she's been buying me figures ever since!
  14. For me it's imperial shuttle 10212 I think, the figures are outdated now but that ship translates so well into lego
  15. I watched episode III last year and the part during order 66 when Aayla is killed made me want an at-pt, and oddly playing lego star wars 3 had me thinking of collecting one of each vehicle, prequel-wise it's the republic clone wars vehicles that really grab me
  16. As I get older and the more I watch the films the more I dislike them, I sometimes feel like watching them on mute! I think on paper the prequels are awesome and thats why the sets still do ok with the afols. My dad got me into Star Wars via the OT and then I grew up on the prequels so I love both for their own reasons but it's painful to watch the newer films in certain places. The kid in me is glad to own lego qui gon and watto and there is something so awesome about the palpatine from palpatines arrest
  17. The new trend seems to be recycle an old torso non clone wars the face and whack on some leg printing, I'm really hoping out of all the Jedi left Aayla secura is due a non cw makeover. As much as I love leg printing I hope they never phase out the blank legs completely there's something beautiful about how classic a fig can look while being so plain
  18. I once had around 35 stormtroopers and the other half told me I had too many so I cut down to 2 of each variant and after watching the films I always regret that I now have 'so few'!
  19. That's the fella those legs but on the 9494 Kenobi, I much prefer the default beige torso, in fact most of the clone wars Jedi torsos are a little :/
  20. Hi guys was just browsing this years new minis and saw mace windu's white legs under his robes, puzlzled I searched images of him to find that it's his leg clothing between his robes and boots that are white. Then looking at the new clone wars obi wan I really like what they've done with his legs and would really like to see his legs on the mustafar obi wan. 1 could somebody post a pic of this combination? And 2 does it bother anyone else that in the Lotr game hobbits get printed feet and Wonder Woman gets boots but the Jedi's don't?
  21. A simple fix for mace's white... Clone boot legs?? Keep his hips and swap for stass' legs, the colour seems to match well enough.
  22. Anyone think at some stage we'll see sets of the 1313 game, sounds like it has some promising content.
  23. I'm glad the exclusive is what it is unlike the dc/marvel sdcc ones, lego doesnt have to market these to kids so they could have gone for any character they liked im thankful its one we've seen before.
  24. FBTB have an article up about a celebration IV boba fett exclusive looks pretty nice better than the maul exclusive EDIT: my bad late on the post
  25. Santa maul is up on bricklink is the advent calendar available already?
