Well, at least the set will still be worth it for the minifigs. Though all the rumored builds sound promising to be honest. Facts. The action figure industry is getting hit with this pretty hard too, fortunately I only collect one line now. Anything else I want is already on ebay. Edited April 19 by ARC2149Nova Quote

Glad I got to see this one before it got taken down. *Given the level of discussion online, I feel like it's important to clarify that no, obviously I'm not a fascist- and given that that label is usually applied to people as further implication that they're the 1930s german windmill ones, I'll also note that in my real life I publicly spoke out against antisemitism at an institution I was in during a speech (This sounds a lot cooler than it was but I'm being intentionally vague given as people are getting increasingly ugly here, I'd like to ensure my real identity is not found), but it is fun to see the old "___ is fascism" on something like... economic tariffs. We've already been told to stop discussing this, but so long as we're doing it anyway and seeing as I just got my shiny new Badge of Being Called A Fascist For Disagreeing On An Unrelated Geopolitical Issue, I feel like it's important to point out that something "subtle and misleading" would be pretending Tariffs AREN'T a thing very many countries have had on eachother very consistently over centuries. Canada had ones on the US before this year. Many of the countries the US is tariffing are ones that had tariffs on the US. As someone else here pointed out, China and Australia are currently in a tariff-laden trade war. Why on earth would I be talking about you? I have specifically thought of you as a very normal and reasonable person on this forum. I don’t care what you or anyone thinks of the tariffs, they are the absolute least of my concerns. I never insinuated you were a fascist, just that the posts MKJoshA was responding to mentioned MAGA, and trying to spare the feelings of people who support that movement, who are supporting a fascist who is carrying out a genocide on trans people like me as well as the people of Gaza, and violating the human rights of countless others.

Big fan of Maul, and I do not mind seeing even one more show between Ep. III and IV if it involves this saber-wielding maniac. I’d love if they explored some of the action prior to S7, whether by a prologue or through flashbacks. Darth Talon is, in Morbius’s words, intriguing. Obviously Disney will want her outfit toned down, so I can see a minifig of her being made. I don’t get the hype around her other than she is a girl Sith. Still, Talon can be slotted into any time period, and her and Maul as a duo was bound to happen. Overall, I have high expectations. Let’s hope they don’t get sidetracked with monster of the week adventures and tell a strong, concise story. While multiple seasons would give us LEGO fans the greater potential for multiple sets, if the show isn’t good, it’s unlikely to be successful enough to warrant at least one set. 9 hours ago, CloneCommando99 said: I’m currently going to guess this is a given set. The question is if the AT RT is included or sold separately. Either way, figs I’d guess would be: the officer, 2 tank drivers, Mando and 2-3 Snowtroopers (hopefully without the face covering, I like how the helmets look like skulls without them) Another question is how is Lego going to do the interior? Previous play-scale AT ATs have never had interiors as large and detailed as what’s evidently required for this. That’s largely due to the fact Luke never entered the AT AT, and therefore Lego had the opportunity to be minimalistic. Mando on the other hand needs crates and weapon racks as well as seating. we have our very own Manny Bothans. Definitely will be included. As much as we’d love to see small, affordable playsets, it makes more sense for TLG to include Mando with his AT-RT than an AT-RT sold separately. That is, unless they employ the same strategy as they did in 2015, including Rey in both the most expensive and cheapest sets. For now, though, I lean toward the AT-RT being included. 2020 AT-AT had space for troopers inside, a winch for Luke’s grappling hook in the behind the “neck,” and for a speeder bike in the trunk. If only the troop carrying is required, that leaves space for weapons and crates, albeit probably only for kids to pull out and with which to play. RIP Manny Bothans. He was a great lost. (And people complain TLJ skimps over Ackbar’s death when Manny was ten times the figurative man Ackbar was.) 8 hours ago, Tariq j said: It definitely sounds like they’re looking at a very blurry photo. I could see how a UT-AT and the Zillo Beast gun could be confused with one another. I don’t think it would make much sense with the Galactic Marines would it? My money is still on it being the Turbo Tank. This reminds me of the old fable of the three blind men who were told to feel different parts of an elephant, but gave three different for what it was. I’m firmly in the Turbo Tank category. 6 hours ago, Agent Kallus said: Looks over at the rest of Eurobricks: You guys are getting paid!?!? I was supposed to be paid???

Meanwhile being political is the last thing that should be on a LEGO forum. That was @MKJoshA’s point. His comment was an attempt to nip this nasty sort of discussion in the bud, but then you went and drudged it up. If you want to have a genuine political discussion where those of us on this forum can debate what fascism is and who is acting as such, frankly that belongs elsewhere. Degrading a person to the level of Mussolini and Nazism is uncalled for when a true discussion cannot occur due to the rules of this forum. If MkJoshA said something out of turn, then call it out. However, perceiving a comment of his to be in defense of all things MAGA when he objectively did not say so is unfounded reasoning to accuse someone online. *sigh* I hate having to discuss this type of stuff right now, but I will call out a spade when I see it is objectively a spade.

Darth_Bane13 Posted April 19 Posted April 19 7 hours ago, Mandalorianknight said: I can understand wanting that, but the design language would be so massively devolved from everything else on shelves that it'd require essentially reverting lego's detail level two decades across most themes to work. (Plus I mean at that point, just bricklink the parts for the 2005 version. I'm not generally a proponent of that, but this is a case where it makes sense to get the parts for the older set- wanting the older design style.) I know we'll get to $200 eventually, but personally I'd prefer Yeah I get that they'd never do a set like the 2005 turbo tank today, I'm just nostalgic for older LSW. And for the record I do own the 2010 tank which I think is the best one (not trying to flex). A Turbo tank with the size of 8098 and the detail of 75151 would be incredible in my opinion, But I understand a $200 playset is certainly tough to swallow. Quote
MKJoshA Posted April 19 Author Posted April 19 Guys, this is a Lego forum. That's what unities us and it's why we're here. We live in a world where brands interact with politically charged topics on a regular basis, so they are going to come up in our conversation about Lego. As a Moderator it's my job to ensure we can have peaceful discussions together. Name calling, slurs, or other abusive communication does not allow for beneficial discussion nor is it allowed on this site. If you have a problem with tariffs in regard to Legos you are welcome to say why. If you don't have a problem or hold any other position you are welcome to say why. You are welcome (and encouraged) to disagree with each other. But it needs to be a civil disagreement with no assumptions or name calling. I have unhidden @Renny The Spaceman's comment for the purpose of this discussion. Renny, you are welcome to comment or clarify. But I hid his post because in response to @Mandalorianknight he stated: Quote This is literally the most overtly political statement here. I think you should get off your horse, he's stoned. Not knowing whether he was calling Mandalorianknight, Trump, or someone else stoned; I previously hid the post as calling anyone stoned is unnecessary name calling. Calling someone fascist @QuiggoldsPegLeg is also unnecessary and not allowed on this site. I'm leaving the offensive posts unhidden for now as examples of what's not allowed. Future name calling posts will be removed. 14 hours ago, BrickPrick said: Hello there.

TBH I already have him so this does nothing for me but it is a cool fig. I've got a dozen beskar Dins but only recently got the face print and updated helmet design in the N1 microfighter. Still no Darksaber, but you can get that on PaB for 70p and even cheaper on Bricklink so I'm not exactly in a hurry. Between this and the Mando Fleet Commander being in one last year I'm wondering if the Interceptor vs Fang Fighter didn't sell too well and they've got excess figures. Wonder if the astromech will be in one later. Figures are always the best "gifts" in those magazines though it's better when they're truly hard to get. E.g. Bespin Luke still remains the best one they ever did, and while I wasn't a fan of the design the 212th trooper was great for army builders. Quote

You might just be right about that 2010 one, at least in terms of detail/size ratio. I think a neat way to solve this would just be making a $400 UCS Turbo Tank. Biggest and most detailed. That said, we probably have a ways to go for that, I'd assume the AT-TE would come first. 10 hours ago, CloneCommando99 said: Going back to Jaxxon, an obscure legends character, @Mandalorianknight, we both know what the implications of this could mean for season 3.

What I find funny about the trailer is the narrator says that they fight a war in the shadows but the main cast immediately proceeds to take on the separatists in full on open warfare Bad Batch style. But, a diverse group of operatives heralding from different species and with a Jedi on the team? Delta Squad could never. Really intrigued by this game. Hopefully we can at least get character packs or droid tanks with the main cast if Lego doesn’t want to make their ship. Ahsoka Season 2 concept art has me pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think Thrawn was going to get screen time as Ahsoka, the main protagonist, is no longer in proximity plot-wise to him. We had better get Gilad and Karyn up on the Chimera’s bridge this season. And hopefully Thrawn calls the Ascendancy for aid (I’d pay good money to see Ronan’s reaction to the Death Star blowing up twice) Oh. The realisation just hit me that the double death troopers were probably Pik and Waffle. RIP. It makes me optimistic that 2026 will be an Imperial renaissance (just hopefully with a decent number of generic forces alongside the Night Sister assassins.) But I’m still fearful that Andor Season 2 sets won’t be part of it. Also Zeb and some NR soldiers appear to be fighting on Dathomir. If only there was some force sensitive ally who has endured the hardships of the planet first hand, with a thorough database of the fauna and a Night Sister waifu to help them. Otherwise they’re cooked. As for Admiral Ackbar: he’s also cooked, just not fatally. 1 hour ago, Mandalorianknight said: Thrawn She calls to us. Across time, and space. Nothing can prevent our Journey. Nothing will. Darkseid Mara is. @Swordy: good point about the 2020 AT AT. I forgot that the speeder could fit into the back.

I assume from the profile picture you're excited to see the rumored new Cad in the hot rod snowspeeder? Oh shoot, somehow my over-eagerness level returned and i totally missed your reply. But as i will never be tired of saying... better late than never. Regarding your question, while Cad Bane is definitely among my favorite characters and i am looking forward to the reveal for sure, other than Jedi Bob's Starfighter, i wasn't too eager about all other RTG sets. So it's more of a wait and see approach for me. Even though it would not be the first Snowspeeder i primarily got for an exclusive minifig... the 20th anniversary one says hi. However, seeing you already brought up this topic, i wanna elaborate by saying: i stopped holding out hope that the most recent Cad Bane from the unjustifiable Justifier set would be cheaply released elsewhere in an Advent Calendar, a Magazine, Microfighter, as a Keychain etc. So i jumped the gun and brick linked this thing of beauty last month. It's my first Cad Bane minifigure and i am very happy with it. How about you... Got any minifigure that is near and dear to you? Anything in particular you still want to add to your collection?

I honestly had to google this character just to confirm my suspicion being right... yep, it's a Rebels character. Never actually watched the show. Might change that sooner or later. Speaking of unavailable versions... Well, see my profile picture. Back when i watched the season finale of TBoBF, i had zero doubts in my mind that Lego would incorporate the climax battle into a seizable play set later on. With the return of a recolorred Rancor, those giant Droideka looking thingies, a bit of scenery and all that jazz. But it unfortunately never happened. I know it's gotta be challenging to keep your merchandise machine up and running with all these different Star Wars media we get on a regular basis nowadays, but the two sets they did make were not even truly based on the show the begin with. Out of all the different Disney Star Wars series, only the Mandalorian gets proper ongoing support. Nearly everything else gets like two to three sets tops (or how about nothing at all) and move on. This swift and short dealing with things is kinda reflective of the "content over cinema"-climate we get to experience in this day and age, i guess. Edited April 19 by BrickPrick Quote
