The Last Jedi wave was really expensive too. They had three sets over $100 and others that were close

wow. My easy solution there was that the sets were garbage and I only bought the smallest at full price.

I just bought some of the minifigs at the time and then right before they were discontinued I went back and bought the three biggest sets from that wave. I really liked the builds for them. But hopefully this wave is cheaper, because that was crazy. Plus we’ve got the UCS coming out as well.

Don't forget the UCS and The Mandalorian, those torsos were also lit. The new Falcon is a must have, already €160 gone. New TIE Fighter, another €70-80. New Kylo Ren shuttle, €100-120? The UCS? It has to be a pretty mess for me not wanting to have it. Then they have to release the Mandalorian Gunship at some point in the near future and we're still missing a vast majority of the Aces. It's a trap.

It is a trap. I'm not planning on buying the UCS, but already I've been had into buying the falcon, at-st, speeders, etc, which is $300 gone. Add in anything containing so much as a mandalorian or fallen order reference and marvel's new endgame sets, and I'm starting to wonder how much farther I can push my wallet.

I doubt Fallen Order will get anything more than a small set, maybe a polybag. Especially if you take in mind all Battlefront 2 got was a pretty mediocre battlepack even though there are several potential sets in the story, the Corvus being the best example

All I want from Fallen Order would be the Seventh Sister (since she was overlooked entirely in the Rebels sets) and Purge Troopers

I'd say fallen order is much more likely to get at least a $30ish set. It's much more story-oriented than the battlefront games and has alot of new designs for imperials and the main cast that are 100% canon, whereas battlefront just had inferno squad.

The new Poe Dameron figure looks pretty cool. Same design as the videogame but with dark brown colors instead of reddish brown which makes it look even better.

You mean the Second Sister?  As far as I know, she‘s the only Inquisitor to appear in the game even though the rest of the Inquisitorius could make an appearance as well since I think all of them are still alive at the point in time the story of Fallen Order is set 

[Darth Malgus]

Anyone seen the Poe minifg?

Its ok. Interested to see which set its in.

Considering the recently leaked Jumptroopers, I‘d expect Poe to appear in a skiff/ speeder chase set along with them 

[BrickBob Studpants]

Sorry for the double-post, but the minifigs of Finn and Lando have now leaked as well  

My only gripe is the cape, why white instead of the black & blue one from the promo pics? Even if he sports a white one at some point in the movie, the other one would have looked way better

Wow you’re right, until this moment I thought she was the Seventh Sister from Rebels. I guess they’re two different Inquisitors

On a different note, Lando, Finn, and Poe look great. I don’t like the goofy smile for Finn though, I think he had that same look in the Resistance Pod from TLJ.

They are  The Second Sister had an early-bird cameo in a single panel in the Darth Vader comic and was then revealed as (presumably) the main antagonist of the Fallen Order game. I wouldn‘t blame you, their helmets are rather similar in shape:

At least he has more than two facial expressions in total, in stark contrast to some other main characters *cough* Poe *COUGH* Rey *cough* 

[wesker]

I don't mind the goofy face print. Still one of Finn's better minifigures. Torso print has some nice detail and I like the overall color combination on the uniform. Lando is pretty cool too although similar in appearance to the Solo minifigure.

I wonder how many more reveals are left to go? We've still yet to see the Sith Trooper, Pryde and 3rd Knight of Ren fully assembled. Plus the A-Wing and Y-Wing sets have to have pilots. Beyond that I'm curious if there are many more new figures left to reveal or if the remaining figures are going to be repeats.

I would hope Kylo Ren has a new variant in some way. Plus Jannah and D-O

Yup, and he's probably in the skiff set, the minifigures alone are making this set worth it.

Yes, second sister will be the main, if not only, inquisitor in fallen order.

Jannah?

[m4st3rt3ch]

Is it sure Lando's cape is all white?

[BrickBob Studpants]

The remaining three Knights of Ren is probably too much to ask for in the first wave, even though it’d be nice to get all six of them immediately, especially the one that seems to be the ‘main’ KoR of sorts (the one with the checkerboard mask)  I still haven’t fully recovered from the Praetorian Guard helmet shenaningans, so I hope they won’t repeat that mistake 

Just now, m4st3rt3ch said:

It is in the leaked picture  Leakers have made mistakes in the past when assembling minifigs (remember Albfleur Dumblecour?), but I wouldn’t count on it.

[Balrogofmorgoth]

Yes, that’s the name of the new black woman in TROS from the poster image, the one who is speculated to be related to Lando

Yeah, but we see only one side.

It looks like the more rigid cloth material rather than the newer softer material, that’s why it has me wondering as well. I could be wrong but it does look like it. Either way, it’s not the cape he wears in the trailer and promo images. That cape is black/brown on the outside and blue on the inside, similar to his cape in Solo.

The figures we've seen all appear to be leaking from the same factory. Not all sets are produced at all factories. So we may never see leaks from certain sets, if other factories don't have the same security problems that this factory has.

I would put the chances of that happening at near-zero.

I think it's worth pointing out there that the contents of this set — and its figures — are not yet known publicly. There are a lot assumptions going around. Assumptions are often wrong.

Meh. Hopefully we’ll get the missing trio in the January wave then, I don’t want to wait till next summer (or even longer!) for them

We’ll probably get them eventually. Although we still haven’t gotten Galen Erso, Saw Gerrera, L-3, or Dryden Vos so...
