Could you add a comparison picture for the 'real deal'? Nice and sleek

It's going to be a while before they're released. The Italian who scanned the images better start running I guess we've seen the Star Wars sets to come until Summer. The Pirate Tank and the mid-scale MF belong to the Winter-wave of sets. Also a little side-note on reposting stuff that's been previously posted. You're more than welcome to check the closed news topic which is also pinned before posting news here. Chances are that if there's something new, then I'll have it posted there. So as a general rule, if it's not there, then post it. - Unless it's preliminary/illegal pics, then you shouldn't post (deeplink) them at all. Hoah?

They're not in the first post. And with all the links for Toy Fair, it's just fine reposting the links for these.

The question of "either..or..." is hard to answer. Personally I like both almost evenly. The AT-TE is a strong ground vehicle with a neat design. It has a few flaws and some open gaps, but nothing that'll make me reconsider ever buying it. The RGS is a near perfect craft with so many MOD-possibilities, the fact that we've gotten alternate noseprints and the cool colourscheme even stronges the greatness. It has the same design flaws in being open as the AT-TE. I can't really choose between them, since they're totally different in use. A ground vehicle versus an aircraft...it all depends on what you'll use them for. If I were to swoosh either, then it'll be the RGS. But if I were to fight it out on the ground, blasting droids all over the place, then I'd pick the AT-TE. Now don't make me choose between the AT-AT and the AT-TE, because then the classic would win anytime

First post has been updated. Feel free to check it for anything I might have missed in the info.

In my opinion this is one of the best designs LEGO made for that period of time when it was made. It stands as a classic set to me. The prints (no stickers) and overall design is awesome, the only downside is the rear, but that can easily be MOD'ed into something great. An above average rating from me. (Anyone going lower will get banned instantly )

Really? A toy-bow firing foam arrows has got little to doo with elves?! - are you serious? :laugh: C'mon guys take it easy. We'll either see elves or not. TLG haven't decided wether or not they're going to be a future part of the Castle theme, so let's all just lean back and wait.

I think I'll let the pics rest for a day or two and then try to find the best for the first post This is almost like christmas. Thanks to all those sharing their pics with us. Man I wish they had something like this at LEGOWorld, but sadly they had nothing at all...

And frontpaged

Set 10195 - Republic Dropship and AT-OT - found by Clone O'Patra Click the picture to discuss. Full coverage by SirSteve's Guide click here

Holy crap. I hope that's a real set. Thanks for providing us with a link to that thing.

Wrong. I'm guessing this is the real thing

Yeah this is a great idea. I'll move this topic to the LEGO News & General discussion forum and have all of our members share their thoughts on this.

Thanks for reviewing this classic fighter craft. I've added the poll and will index this within a few days.

BSTF Forum question. I'll move it there.

I am not calling anyone a child here. I merely stated that childish whining isn't wanted here. You're allowed to have your opinions on any given set, what I don't want is people to rant. Feel free to discuss and submit your opinion, just do it in a grown-up argumentative manner please. Going: "OMFG diz is soooo bad and overpriced - wut the fug is wrong with you TLG?!!!1!!" isn't acting like a grown up, is it? Let's discuss the sets in a better way than that. And please think twice before calling me a child or childish next time. As mentioned, you're free to have and post any opinions, just don't rant

Ok people, that's enough of the childish whining about the mid-scale Millenium Falcon. It's mid-scale, which means non-minifig scale. Let's lay off the spoiled brat comments here. Personally I think the design is pretty good and it'll do just fine sitting on my shelf. As for the Pirate Tank, I've not got a single clue as to what and why that set was made, but I'll surely look forward to getting it. "Stay on target" and act maturely here. If you're just here to whine and rant, then go somewhere else.

You're right, this isn't the right forum. This belongs in the BSTF Forum. Closed and moved.

Video 2 is now live, beware of the insane noise - turn down the speakers.

No problem. A MOC this size and quality deserves to be frontpaged.

And "Rate the set" means "Rate the Review" in your mind?

Leave the decisions on who's staying and who's not up to us please. There's plenty of under 18 members who's acting maturely and they're only being observed. We've got members older than 18 acting like they were 12 and they're going down the drains and into the sewer. This is a fine topic by the way. Discussing the 2009 minifigs deserves a topic of it's own. Good to see/read that the discussions, not belonging in the 2009 rumor topic, being taken somewhere else.
