Lord Of The Fries Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Hi everybody, I was just wondering does this head come in any other sets than 7251 (Darth Vader's Transformation)? Anakin Burnt Head by Lord Of The Fries, on Flickr If anyone knows could you please reply in this topic. Thanks, Lord Of The Fries Edited March 24, 2011 by Lord Of The Fries Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 No, it doesn't, but there is the new version in the Theta-shuttle. Why is this a new topic instead of just going in the General Star Wars Questions thread? And in the Website and Forums forum of all places. Quote
Lord Of The Fries Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Sorry, This was my first time I have actually posted something that I started if you understand me Once again Sorry, Lord Of The Fries Quote
Artanis I Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 If you go to Bricklink and search the catalogue for the inventory of the set you got the part from, you can easily locate the specific part - and see what sets it appears in. For future reference, as your question is already answered. (The set apparently had 2 editions, but are the same really) Quote
Lord Of The Fries Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Thanks Guys, Now I know how to find answers to lego problems easier and faster. So thanks for your help. Cheers, Lord Of The Fries Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted March 25, 2011 Author Posted March 25, 2011 Since the question has already been answered, I'm going to move this to the Gen. Questions Thread. Quote
Piranha Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 (edited) If you mean the categories on S@H, be aware that TLG isn't really accurate with that sort of thing. We've had CW sets in the Classic section before, so having a Sith set under CW is no biggie. Besides, the Clone Wars technically didn't end until the last parts of Sith, so if the ARC-170 set is made to represent one from the Battle of Coruscant, it's still a Clone Wars starfighter. Um the ARC-170 is now in the Episodes I-VI category on LSAH. I just hope we get back to EP2 and EP3 sets. Edited March 26, 2011 by Macoco Quote
xecom Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Is someone know what will be 7879 Hoth Echo Base?? Any pictures or info of this set? thanks :) Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Is someone know what will be 7879 Hoth Echo Base?? Any pictures or info of this set? thanks :) No, they'd be in the rumors topic if they were, and why ask this here and not there? Quote

Piranha Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 So the new SW Minifig Guide comes with another exclusive fig? I wonder what it could be? Quote
xecom Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 So the new SW Minifig Guide comes with another exclusive fig? I wonder what it could be? I really hope something new :D Actually they sould just make a minifig starwars series :P Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 I really hope something new :D Actually they sould just make a minifig starwars series :P Of course it'll be something new. How can it be an Exclusive Minifigure if it is in some other set?And TLG can't, because since Hasbro owns the rights to SW action figures, TLG can't sell SW minifigs by themselves, only as 'accessories to vehicles'.

Except for when they did the SW minifig 3 packs way back, which I did get Maybe a Ceremonial Han? Or even better chrome TC-14 or R2. Quote
Fallenangel Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 And TLG can't, because since Hasbro owns the rights to SW action figures, TLG can't sell SW minifigs by themselves, only as 'accessories to vehicles'. But lately it's really been the other way around... Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 Except for when they did the SW minifig 3 packs way back, which I did get I think that was what got them in trouble in the first place. But lately it's really been the other way around... Quote
BrickArtist Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I think that was what got them in trouble in the first place. I remember that, yeah hasbro was mad. Doing those again would be....problematic Quote

prateek Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 But what I don't get is that Hasbro doesn't own the rights to Star Wars, so I don't see why Lego backed down. Quote
BrickArtist Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 But what I don't get is that Hasbro doesn't own the rights to Star Wars, so I don't see why Lego backed down. LucasArts owns the star wars rights, so with their permission you can sell certain fields of merchandise. If Lucas gave 2 companies action figure rights, it would cut their profit in half. To TLG it doesn't make financial sense to outbid hasbro for that liscense. Quote
StoutFiles Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) But what I don't get is that Hasbro doesn't own the rights to Star Wars, so I don't see why Lego backed down. Hasbro paid for an exclusive license for SW figurines. If TLG intruded on that license, Hasbro would be suing someone. Besides, TLG makes much more money by bundling an exclusive minifig with a product or high-priced set people wouldn't otherwise buy. Edited March 28, 2011 by StoutFiles Quote
RubeusHagrid Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I'm actually new to Star Wars and the thing that puzzles me is why stormtroopers are so easy and cheap to get but clones are rarer and more expensive? Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I'm actually new to Star Wars and the thing that puzzles me is why stormtroopers are so easy and cheap to get but clones are rarer and more expensive? BL says $4 for a Stormie, $2.50 for a CW Clone, $3 for a Sith Clone, and around $7.50 for a Clones Clone. If you mean Stormie vs. Clones Clone, that would be because the latter was only in two sets from the Clones wave. Quote
Solscud007 Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) I have been getting more and more interested in trying to collect or build the SW mini kits. Especially the Clonewars kits. Thanks to playing Lego SW III haha. I found out that SDCC had an exclusive Mini Dropship. I could not find instructions anywhere. I plan to reverse engineer some pics I found of the finished product but does anyone know where I can get scans of the instructions? I attached a pic I found on brickshelf. It shows one side of the instructions. Edited March 28, 2011 by Solscud007 Quote

If you mean Stormie vs. Clones Clone, that would be because the latter was only in two sets from the Clones wave. I remember when they made scout troopers before Stormies back then Vader's legions were all scouties CW Clone, EP3 Clone & EP2 Clone are all fairly cheap, however I had 8 EP2 clones and sold them because I never really liked the design, I think the CW Clones are an improvement. However EP3 Clones IMO are still the best, LEGO please do a 501st Battle Pack. Hmm about the MINI instructions, can't seem to find any Quote
