The spoilers were not related to the mandalorian at all, though you were right to be wary. The poster was actually being super considerate about rumours for future shows. But everything you said I agree with.

Overall I'm pleasantly surprised with what they managed at the price point. And I have to say I really welcome this move and if it is a soft reboot of sorts, I'm hoping that the future sets will focus on scale. The a wing and snowspeeders in particular are always over sized in my opinion. Xwing- though I appreciate the improvements, the engines sticking out from the wings for instance, am I the only one that finds it kinda ugly? Maybe it will grow on me. But I'm not a fan and much prefer the 2018 version. Which is not to say it isn't a fantastic set at a great price point. The tie. Anyone feel the missed the ball on this. Its almost a perfect recreation of the ties in rebels. They could have made that explicit, and the design choices would have been perfect.

With all the leaks, when do you reckon the official reveal will be considering we have all the main details?

The At-at s are never minifig scale and neither, really are the snowspeeders. The At-at is undersized and the snowspeeder is oversized (though to a lesser degree)

I think comparisons with older sets is unfair. The cantina is a pretty simple set up, i don't really see what else they could do. The thing is you can always use the other cantinas, and even obi wans hut to extend mos eisley, which is how I'm going to display it.

Loving luke just laying about on the floor.

Looking again at the piece I think people saying its a crystal are likely correct. I just saw it first time and thought it was a hologram, which makes more sense haha

I dont buy that, I think it doesn't look like a crystal but a micro fig. My guess is vader from when the troopers are looking for the droids.

Ah cool! Thanks for the reassurance

Apparently it was on back order in Canada? I have a comrade getting me one to ship to the UK. Does anyone knkw what back order would mean with such a limited set?

Additionally, I feel they likely haven't produced enough sets for wide distribution. Massively disappointing, but totally to be expected.

Though I totally agree, you dropped a hint about this months ago.

Looking at the comparison, I'm personally feeling like replacing my 2014 version for the new one. It's just far more accurate

Is that a hint...

Better pics here: https://www.starwars.com/news/lego-ultimate-collector-star-wars-a-wing-starfighter-announced-exclusive Not bad in my book. Decent size. A bit rough though.

They are cannon, and usually can be relied upon to elaborate on things that are confusing in the films. However, though cannon they do hold less weight than films, books and tv shows. All of that said, the t85 has appeared in resistance (and also in a reference book) and it looks nothing like the t70. The nose is bulbous and overall it's way larger.

The January wave: does anyone know when it will hit the shelves? I know that often lego releases them in December, but is that likely to be before or after christmas?

She has her visor up, aside from that it's the same. Has the lettering and markings on the right as well. You cant tell me this isn't supposed to be her.

What cashback schemes? And I thought this new VIP system means you had to apply to use your points prior to a purchase and not during it...

I dunno. Theres the b wings which will be new/updated.

I'm gonna wait for avengers tower promotion now that the double VIP points has ended.

There's no reason why we wouldn't just it appears not today. Perhaps because it's a Sunday? I dunno.

Yea, I wanna know this too. This morning they were listed with no pictures and if you clicked you'd get an error message, but now they are gone completely.

That makes sense of why the star wars April wave are up on s@h! Thank you for that. Also I saw a Instagram post with the boxes with their *not to go on shelf before march 31st* label, so it seems completely confirmed :)
