  1. I'd love to see Rogue One as a game. We could have the end of Revenge of the Sith as a prologue and the start of a New Hope as the epilogue level. Plus some bonus levels from Rebels.
  2. Very good build I really like the way you've done the transition from land to the murky water with the slopes. The drain is also a very good idea and I like the way the pipe runs through the land.
  3. Thank you! Legend has it Batman prowls the streets of Courscant looking for Diners he can play his guitar in. Today must have been his lucky day.
  4. Courscant. The Planet that never sleeps, to say it was a work of beauty would have been an understatement. One of the star destroyers had been passing over the area so Tariq j had managed to pull a few strings and requested a day or two just to sightsee his old home. Tariq had grown up in one of the underworlds of Courscant, in close promixity to the Old Jedi Temple, as expected nothing much had changed since the last time he had seen it, the old diner and block of flats still stood gazing over the streets. He had managed to pay the diner owner a few credits to stay the night and as He gazed out onto the balcony, he wondered how it had changed over the years, the Emperor's residence and strong hold over the planet made it a safe but hostile place to live. In one sense, he missed the bumbling atmosphere, the Clone's flyover during battles.
  5. The promo could obviously have been much worse, but it's good, it's something new and different and not something we'll be seeing in any sets any time soon.
  6. Agreed, I'd also like to sea Manatee E pop up at my door.
  7. I think that might have been the first time we've seen a Solo Musician singing in space!
  8. Agreed, and if Filoni really wanted to he could even do 6, have Seasons 4 and 5 set during 1BBY and Season 6 in the months prior to Scariff. I thought Ahsoka's ambiguous fate was executed well but I do agree that it would be good to see some definite fate for Maul. I was kind of disappointed in Clone Wars when Maul was captured by Palpatine and "that was the end of that" style ending.
  9. Admire my Uniform II
  10. Ever since the update I think (the major one in October)
  11. I love it! It certainly would make a great set. I also like the way you've done it in a smaller scale like the current location based sets.
  12. There are sensors that change colour when they're exposed to light, since most thieves open the box on the sides since they're easy to reseal maybe Lego should place sensors on the inside of Large sets like the Batcave so if someone does want to return a set, they're able to check if it has been broken in to since the sensor would indicate it.
  13. https://www.amazon.co.uk/LEGO-75172-Y-wing-Starfighter-Building/dp/B01J41KMOY Also, on the UK Lego shop website the Tie VS A wing, Resistance troop transporter and various buildible fighters are all reduced.
  14. I agree, that what was one of they great things about the Clone Wars, we always got occasional episodes/story arcs cantered on the Sith. The Episode was excellent, it was incredibly tense and there were various points I thought Kallus was really going to get it. I also loved Thrawn's "Sherlock Holmes" deduction style towards the end of the episode. I think what was also great about this episode is it finally explains why Thrawn was letting the Rebels escape in the 1st half of Season 3: he was using all the hyperdrive and flight paths to track down their possible locations.
  15. Exactly, almost every film in history has heterosexual characters/relationships, suddenly this film apparently has homosexual ones and someone decides to throw their toys out of the pram and have a hissy fit over it?
  16. After Rogue One, I needed to see some T-65 X wing's! Really great model, I love the way you've shaped the underside, and I like the use of barrels as exhausts.
  17. All three Force Fridays have been (or in the case of TLJ) will be released 3 months before the films cinema release. Assuming Lego follow this through foe the Han Solo film, I suspect we may get a wave in February or (More likely) the Han Solo wave is shared/replaces the January Wave.
  18. We know that the next FB will take place in Europe (and most likely feature Hogwarts) so you never know.
  19. There's no sole reason that makes Star Wars good, for lots of fans its down to many reasons: the lightsaber battles, the epic space dogfights, the ground battles, the weapons like the Death Star and Starkiller Base and of course the characters. Another reason is the way (particularly the Originals) is the way they were made, the use of models, large scale sets, puppets, it was like nothing anybody had ever seen before.
  20. I don't when, but it looks like the sort of things you'd get in a Lego Star Wars Magazine. I saw a Kansan minifigure in one a 2 weeks ago, so I don't know whether a new one has come out yet - might be worth asking your local newsagents to see if ones coming out.
  21. I'd like to see an updated version of the current Vader helmet (one that can split into three pieces instead of two)
  22. £20-£25 would be a good price for the set you're getting 5 minifgures (6 if you count the Probe droid as one) a fully completed set unlike the freezing chamber and accurate play functions. I also quite like how Lego have included the Republic Logo on the floor in white just like in the film.
  23. Now This is the assault on Hoth set we're looking for! Seriously though, great build I love the way you've expanded upon the existing Wampanoag cave to make a larger one and the greenling on the echo base looks amazing.
  24. In comparison to hachiroku's video the guys in the video were placing the helmet at the wrong position in the clasp. They needed to place the helmet at a lower position so that the top half of the head was in the clasp.
  25. True, and "Force Friday" sounds a lot better than "Rogue" or (for example) "Solo" Friday, personally. Thanks for sharing, ironically the set with the least screen time actually has one of the biggest appeals, the exploding function is neat, it's just a bit of a shame that the minifigures let the set down. I'm not to bothered about Rey and Finn but BB-8 has appeared (and will appear) in a number of sets and he's not going to be having a costume change any time soon like the other characters and it would have been cool to get a Jakku resident like Bobbajo or Zuvio rather than yet another one of Unkarr's thugs.
