Unfortunately, due to finances I'm going to have to drop out of this.

Would like to share, cannot take on room responsibility.

Sign me up!

Really great shaping on this.

I'm so pleasantly surprised to see we're getting Admiral Sloane. I'm not sure we've ever had a minifig that's basically been in no visual media before? I'm aware she was in Squadrons, but that was quite a niche game.

Now that we have a Din Djarin with a face, what hair do people think would be good? This maybe?

Really nice use of parts! One of the best ones I've seen.

Looks very clean, I dig it. Looks like it'd be nice and easy to swap some tiles for plates to pose minis too, which is nice.

I'm so glad this new helmet is nigh-on identical mould-wise (print-wise I'd prefer a return to the previous live-action style). It looks like it's cut to not be perfectly round, presumably so the visor stays in place. I wonder if this means the rangefinder won't be compatible?

Not a sale, but Obi Wan's Jedi Starfighter is available from Smyth's for preorder for £5 less than on Lego.com.

Just seen more pics of Yoda's hut - the £30 or whatever one from a few years ago has a bigger interior... I know it's not the main point of the set, but still.

Looks great, I love the shaping on the wings.

Honestly, it feels like if they removed the black border and the plaque, the price would be lower (I know obviously it's less bricks, you all know what I mean). It's a display set so it can be sold for higher. I'm not surprised there's a new stormtrooper torso - it's been used since 2014, but from the glimpse I've seen I don't feel that it's better. Will have to judge when we see more.

What are people's opinions on the new hybrid print legs for clone troopers? I'm trying to decide if I should swap the realistic print out for them, so hybrid legs + realistic torso + realistic print helmet. But then black or white hips?

Looks great! Where's the legs and torso from?

So much great detail in here, but I gotta say that BD is done excellently. The blaster bolt mid air is pretty clever.

What do people recommend as a hair piece for Gar Saxon?

I voted Windsor the same reason as Peppermint, but honestly I'm happy with any. If I could enter a second choice I'd probably say Günzburg.

Out of curiosity, do these fit under imperial army helmets at all, or does the bit at the front and sides make it not fit?

Does anyone have any suggestions on either fixing or preventing stickers from peeling over time? My A-wing from 2017 is peeling already, which feels a bit ridiculously soon.

As Pep said slightly different ones in the UK, but this is definitely a nostalgia hit. I've got a lot of mine in a box somewhere, although quite a few not in good condition. Thanks a lot for this!

Welcome to first past the post voting. Yeah, it sucks. I really, really wish they either let us do voting on sub-themes or let us do preferential ranking. This is also why I was wondering if people had a preference for us to rally behind a particular sub-theme.

Lego have released a fan vote on Lego Ideas to create a set from a classic theme for the 90th anniversary of Lego. There is a great selection of themes on there, unfortunately only one will be chosen for a set. This is especially evil as certain themes such as castle and space are so split up, and you can only choose three, with no ranked preference voting! What are you thinking of voting for, should we try to rally around at least one particular loved theme to ensure it does well? I'm open for two of my picks, although one of mine will certainly be for Rock Raiders. Also, I'm aware there there is already a thread for Lego Ideas discussion but this feels like a particularly big and unique thing that it could warrant its own thread.

Really nice use of pieces here. Good scale for it.

It's a small detail, but that slightly messy bed is absolutely perfect. Lots of really great detail here.
