natelite Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 i also started with OT only. then i sort of give up after a few months. with sets so well made (actually it's mostly the mfs but whatever), it's impossible for me to just stick to OT. :-P only problem is the price point. SW theme is expensive to collect. but i guess that's because of the higher quality that the designer put to the sets in that theme. *y* besides, CW has some really nice sets/parts. it also give me the flexibility to pick and choose what i want. for eg, ugly sets like EU's tie crawler is a pass for me. :-P and anakin's new hair piece = *y* so that's a yes for me. :-P
Commander Faie Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Bear in mind that we only know the january line up and the fact that we'll have 8 CW sets. Add to that that the january sets are never the best compared to the may and later releases and I doubt that we won't get 1 or 2 more OT sets ;-) I'm like you and want way more OT sets ;-) Yep that is so true !! When I came out of my dark age I felt like Klaus and wanted solely OT sets but I really come to love nearly all what have been made (I said nearly because of those darn ep2 clones :-P ). I want news badly now looooool *yoda* I want news too, everyday I get up and I come to see a old man playing with legos. Anyways I think next year will be awesome because this year was mainly OT except for specials and summer sets, maybe theres a cycle from now on 2 battle packs, clone wars, summer sets with one one or two OT's, then back to clone wars. and in "09 maybe it will be like that only in reverse like this year?

Christian Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Set descriptions from Amazon.com: Rogue Shadow Carrying Darth Vader
Lord Of Pies Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Again, Good find Christian! But hail fire droid with eight flick fire missiles... :-X :-X
trooperdavinfelth Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 IMHO, you don't really need one. Although I think in USD they will be 9.99. The only reason the Hailfire Droid was described thusly was because it was a super-battle-pack. The BPs will just have something saying something to the extent of 'Build your army and defeat the *insert opposing faction name respectively*! Includes 4 *insert army designation* *insert the word storm if stormtroopers are in question*troopers and a *insert the correct vehicle included*. That's what I see as far as a catalogue/SAH review goes.
Mr Spielbrick Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) I hope they don't give Anakin that annoying headset thing on his face again. It's hard to come by normal minifig of Obi-Wan and Anakin this way. *vader* Edited November 4, 2007 by Mr Spielbrick
sam89 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 The Anakin fig will most likely have an 'anime' styled face, like in this picture: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/sam89/20...con_2007_65.jpg
Lt. Col. Thok Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Yeah, got the battle pack descriptions? I desperately want to know if they changed the Imperial Dropship.
Vader Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Thanks for that info Christian *y* So as were in november already i guess we could start to see some of these new sets turning up as early as a months time :'-) No doubt in the US first but still at least we will get some more pics and some reviews.
trooperdavinfelth Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) The AT-AP sounds and looks very cool!! 8- Edited November 5, 2007 by trooperdavinfelth
Kliq Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 I've always been a fan of battle packs, who hasn't X-D , but they were few up until recently. Checking the set numbers around the last battle packs and these new ones, there are still two sets left in the gap, possibly hinting at more BPs in the future. But then again that could just be wishful thinking. I really like the Rogue Shadow, as I always thought it would be neat for Vader to have his own small(er) ship besides his TIE Fighter.
Piranha Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 Battle Packs are the most useful SW sets ever invented!!I love them *wub* Especially the Rebel one,its nice to see more rebels other than Hoth ones :-D I would like a....Gasp.....I can't say it..........EP2 Clone BP!! *Runs and hides before *yoda* sees* X-D I hope to own these before 2008!!! :'-) piranha
Vader Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 I really like the Rogue Shadow, as I always thought it would be neat for Vader to have his own small(er) ship besides his TIE Fighter. Well *vader* does have his Sith Starfighter, It's your basic jedi starfighter with a few mods. I would be shocked if lego didn't produce one of them, after all they have the instructions and everything else already.
xwingyoda Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 I would like a....Gasp.....I can't say it..........EP2 Clone BP!! *Runs and hides before *yoda* sees* Damn too late :-P Lets assume for a sec we are having an ep2 BP, what counterpart BP will we have ? Another droid one |-/ Would be the third droid one though. Well *vader* does have his Sith Starfighter, It's your basic jedi starfighter with a few mods. I would be shocked if lego didn't produce one of them, after all they have the instructions and everything else already. I so want a sith starfighter 8-
Vader Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 As you can see by my moc it's such a simple set for lego to do: As much as i love my version i would still welcome one from lego, i think that the jedi starfighters are so visually stunning *wub* .
hollisbrick Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 As you can see by my moc it's such a simple set for lego to do: As much as i love my version i would still welcome one from lego, i think that the jedi starfighters are so visually stunning *wub* . Woah thats kool! nice moc id buy that id lego did that.
Pate-keetongu Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 *wub* *wub* imperial dropship (stormtrooper battle back), rebel scout speeder (rebel battleback) and at-ap are must have to me! at-ap is best! and I want stormies.
Kliq Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 Kliq, it looks like that *yoda* How cool would that be? And they could even use the same astro droid from the Imperial Star Destroyer. A great (and good looking :-P ) ship for a possible future release.
Piranha Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Vader:Thats a nice MOC SS(sith starfighter) there 8-
baby Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 I do not know why LEGO included 2 Shockie in that AT-AP. I have seen enough of these Shockie who have their helmet not nicely printed. I prefer more Green Clone or even Kashyyk trooper

xwingyoda Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 *yoda* : A BP with Sand red droids and a droideka *wub* !! plus a wierd geonosis thingy I know but I really doubt that we'll have that any time soon !! First the new january hailfire BP IS an ep2 set and no sand red bds Second sand red is an expensive colour to produce ;-) As for the crap vehicle I love the saying "who cares" :-P We don't buy those BPs for lame vehicles that do not exist in the SW Univers anyway :-P See that is a purist attitude ;-) Having said that I do follow you on one point: give us more droidekas *wub* I would love a regular BD BP with a new coloured torso, tan BDs (NO SBDs please, enough is enough) and a droideka ;-) Oh well, we'll just have to wait a tiny bit to see what may holds for us ;-) *yoda*
