  1. I’ve actually got those already for a purist CC Pilot I was putting together.
  2. The CC Pilot doesn’t really need any extra printing in the legs though. If you wanted to add any kind of leg pattern the white Imperial legs from the AT-DP Pilot might work
  3. There was no real rumour for a SSD at any point... just guesswork and wishlisting based on a silhouette on a box. Still no details of the possible Cloud City either though.
  4. It's great to see so many pilots. This little foray into getting more accurate pilots and squadrons has actually been on of the most enjoyable things in Lego Star Wars for a while for me.
  5. I've got figures that have had their helmets on for years. Some of them for around 6 or 7 years. Haven't noticed them becoming tight or loose. They're just kind of the same as they always have been.
  6. Rumour has it the minifigures in the D2C will be the founding Wizards of the four houses. Godric Griffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin and Helga Hufflepuff. I think if this is true they'll be exclusive to that set.
  7. Freemakers gave us a Bounty Hunter battlepack which also included a 4-Lom. That validates the subtheme as far as I’m concerned. If it brings us a Zuckuss I’ll carry the creators on my shoulders and declare their genius.
  8. I'm not sure if there's some kind of glitch in the system. Brickset has all the sets listed but none have listings as being 'owned' by anyone. I'm sure someone would have jumped on that had they ordered them. I can't find any listing for a Wizarding World or HP theme on the Lego S@H site. I don't think Lego really need to do the artificially limited availability thing with these sets... they're a full entirely new wave, rather than just a single UCS set like the Falcon. That was a huge set available as part of an evergreen theme at a price point never touched by Lego previously. Some of these are £15-£20 sets... they'll want to shift as many as possible.
  9. Well if it's really sold that quickly from minute one on the US site then I think people can rest easily about potential sales influencing the decision to green light future waves.
  10. Unfortunately for me it's the printed arms from the UCS Snowspeeder. I've actually got 6 pilots with them now so just need three more. I wish I could just order them like the FS ones. I've now got 22 pilots with the X and Y Wing arms from FS. Yeah.. I've got Tiree with that helmet for my Gold Squadron... it's just that (As with Zin Evalon) we've got a generic Hoth Snowspeeder pilot with that grey helmet so I'd like to associate it with a pilot that was either in a speeder of a support X-Wing.
  11. Yeah. I've just moved him back to that position. I just need to get UCS arms for three pilots. Kesin Ommis who is Hobbie's gunner has a Hasbro figure with red Rebel emblems and a single red stripe through the middle. That's actually close to Luke's old Lego helmet although the red stripe is thicker. I may mask that off and spray it. Oddly that just leaves the grey Lego helmet with the red emblems as an unidentified pilot. I guess that now becomes Scotian. Nice to hear the helmets have arrived too. They definitely look far nicer in hand than their promo shots indicate.
  12. OK... I've just had another quick read up and apparently Will Scotian's first canonical appearance in the SW universe was?... In the 2017 UCS Snowspeeder. Before that he was considered a Legends character. I think the confusion lies in the fact that as part of Legends he takes the call sign Rogue Two AFTER Zev Senesca's death. We never see his helmet unfortunately.
  13. Some of teh Hoth pilots are messy to try and work out. Tarn Mison was listed as a pilot but I think he's canonically an X-Wing pilot flying cover like Will Scotian was. Do we have any idea what helmet Kit Valent was wearing?
  14. I'm glad they arrived so quickly. I hope you're happy with them! :)
  15. Everyone's a winner! :)
  16. I've used a vinyl dye spray from Halfords here in the UK (Car and bike repair and spares place). Light coats and careful masking where needed have given really nice results. I think I even did some dual moulding type boots before they were released and they came out well.
  17. Which makes them movie accurate... which is good!
  18. That would be terrible timing through. The last thing you want to be is dead when it does actually reveal.
  19. I don't know if I'm just lucky but in the 100s of CMF I've bought or parts I've got from various places there hasn't been a single issue with them. No cracking or iffy print anywhere.
  20. I've never had a quality issue with a CMF. Is anyone really going to argue that the Batman movie line of CMF figures were of poor quality print or plastic? That first wave and now these are probably some of the best figures Lego have ever produced.
  21. Luna wore that skirt in the exact scene that figure is taken from: Draco is there to compliment the Quidditch set hence him having short legs. The Snitch is just a generic Quidditch accessory seeing as they have the mould now. I think Cho's skin colour is always open to interpretation due to Lego's colour palette. I think they've just gone with a recent Asian characters tone from Jurassic World for that. Is it not Flesh coloured as per Dr Wu? Maybe its the dark hair and the dark bley jumper making it seem darker in tone? As with the Mandrake it's entirely your preference though...
  22. Popped into Liverpool Smyths yesterday and they only had the Brickheadz Two pack with Dumbledore and Ron
  23. I'm going to assume you can't watch them because you're too young. I've seen members have to take a break for admitting they're that young. As rob-ot500 stated above as long as you don't ACT like you're that young you should be fine.
  24. Because the exact same figure is already in the Great Hall set. Hagrid only really has one look. It's also a kind of maxi-figure and would stand out massively in the range of CMF bags.
  25. Trelawney and Dumbledore might just be the greatest things I've seen in Lego form for a very long time...
