I'd rather have a Bantha and proper sandpeople.

Well I'm expecting Lego Rebels stuff maybe as early as late 2014/early 2015 including this d00d: http://www.superherohype.com/assets/uploads/2014/01/REB_IA_482_L_article.jpg He'd require a new mold since he's shorter than your average astromech.

Are you sure? Sometimes they deliver to the wrong house and it's shown as "delivered". Lucky for me my various neighbors have always eventually given it to me saying it was sent to them by mistake.

Chris Eccleston is always unhappy. That's why he refuses to go on Doctor Who again.

Irrelevant. If you look at his record literally all the movies he's involved with at any high level (including producer) sucks. This is doomed to suck too.

I finally got mine but I think I'll wait until I can do the house proper (which would require 2).

It doesn't really fit my favorite images of Killer Croc. He's usually got more a a flat almost human face in my favorite interpretations. I think it's rarer for him to just looking like a literal crocodile. http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110610105407/batman/images/f/f2/KillerCrocB-AA.jpg But whatever floats your boat.

This makes me fear the movie even more. Pants and shoes. Human lips that look like they're put on in the style of a comedy where they poorly smack someone's lips on a still frame of someone else's face.

Now if only I gave a darn about Deathlok . Give us something that's not 3rd tier.

We get a lot more Kraang. Looks like we get face mask versions of Raph, Leo and Don but not Mike. Don gets an extra suit thing, Leo gets a beat up thing. The builds once again don't look too interesting or iconic. But I'm probably buying these things.

Either suction of the molding process to make it hallow (I assume it is).

How the heck is nobody taking pictures of these things at the toy fair? XP

Do they still have one of those monthly online subscriptions that has the whole database of comics (no additional cost)? I'm bored.

Now that the set is out it might be a good time for them to reveal the other minfigures! Come on!

Zero interest in any of the Super Hero builds. I want many of the figures though...

Nah, I made this specifically to find out why I often see comments about people apparently seething with hatred for the BrickShow. I don't care if people like them. I wanted a very specific question answered.

The awesomeness of Boba Fett mostly comes from outside of the OT, but not in the PT. He's been in countless comics (as he later was able to escape the Sarlaac Pit). If you're not into comics he's been in a lot of video games. His character largely grew beyond what it was in the OT. There's something about him that for whatever reason makes the general populace think he's awesome. Maybe it's his design. Or the fact that everyone made kind of a big deal about him (Han seemed to make a big deal about him, so much so that the actors though Boba Fett would be a prominent character in Return of the Jedi). Whatever it is, he's got a certain way about him... that the prequels and show just suck at mimicing.

Why do some people hate the BrickShow? I see no reason to hate them. I'm confused.

Anyone else think they should try not to make so many new parts? Lego has a ridiculous amount of parts. Part of me thinks they can get rid of some of the fluffier ones and really reduce the part counts without destroying quality.

I completely disagree. Variants are fun. Like the old Batman toys where there was a ridiculous amount of batman suits (despite in the lore there rarely being others). Plus when you don't get variants you get a freakin' army of Spidermans. I have sooo many Spidermans... Whey the crap don't I get some variants? There's so many they could do! On the note of the new set pictures. I'll probably get them. I can't resist more TMNT variants. Spider Bytes though... not exactly the best episode. The human character was annoying (not in a good way) and we haven't seen him since (in his mutated form). April's Dad I wish we had a human version of like Spider Bytes. Can't wait to see Kurai and really wish they had a Casey Jones.

Mine finally shipped. US here. I'll see it in... 5-8 business days :(.

Never say never. One day they could entirely replace the prequels ;). You must have watched a different The Clone Wars TV series than me. He was an annoying little brat kid there too. There was absolutely zero "bad@$$" about him in that series.

Honestly I'm fine with them disrespecting prequel canon. Boba Fett was always one of the most popular Star Wars characters so what do they do? They turn him into an annoying little brat kid. He went from cool myserious d00d to a stupid child.

That would take too much away from Palpatine. He was the master. That doesn't mean Plagueis can't have a good story. IMO the book with him is really lackluster. Books are easily rewritten though but it doesn't seem many would be too interested in more prequel stuff. A TV series based on a younger Palpatine from the perspective of the dark side could be cool. It won't happen though.
