Oh, wow, I didn't expect the Droid Escape set to open up like that. The interior looks quite nice for its size. I might need to consider getting this one now.

Yes! Battle on Takodana looks great; I was worried they wouldn't be able to do it justice with a $50 price point. And it's nice to see you get two stormtroopers instead of one. The color scheme is nice too because it's a break from all of the grey of TFA sets. Hopefully we start seeing these pop up in stores in mid December!

Just2good isn't saying it'll just have those 3 figures. He's saying that those will definitely be included. It's still completely possible (and likely, IMO) that there's a fourth figure. Especially if it has the word "battle" in the set title. When we first got the set number some time ago the price translated to about $50.

I never thought we'd see a Skunk, but I'm definitely not complaining! My first thought was to pair it up with the Skinnet figure from Legends of Chima. I'm really happy it's an animal control guy instead of an insect exterminator.

Ah, the pilot in the Resistance X-Wing microfighter looks to be the Gorwyn character! At least it isn't a random generic pilot.

Woah... awesome! I guess that answers the question of if we would get Maz or not. We haven't had a clear view of her until now, so I'm going to assume that the figure's accurate. I love the torso and blue eyes!

Takodana is where Maz's castle is (it's also the planet where we see the X-Wings on the lake). We can see the ruins of her castle and stormtroopers running through it in the latest trailers, so I'm pretty sure that's what the set will be. I bet we'll get Maz since she's one of the biggest characters we don't have yet and this is the first Force Awakens set that she would make sense to be included in. The duel between Finn and Kylo Ren looks like it's on Starkiller Base (snow planet) later on, so I don't think that's what the set will be based off of.

So how many Force Awakens sets do we still need to see? Just Battle on Takodana? Wasn't there also the Pirate Transport? Or did that just turn out to be that Resistance ship with Leia?

Oh, I forgot about Poe. He could be a possibility as well; I can't see him being in any of the other sets and I'm sure LEGO would want to put him in more sets beyond the X-Wing. However, I bet it'll be a specific pilot variant.

I'll be holding out for a new one then. Thanks for the info! Even though the Snowspeeder's sort of a lame choice for the other Microfighter, I think it could at least be a good opportunity for people to pick up a Snowtrooper if they didn't want to go for the full size model.

Yes, I called it! Do you know if the pilot's the same as the one from Poe's X-Wing? Does he have a new face/helmet?

I agree that we won't get Luke in Episode VII sets. Unless he's a polybag or May the 4th promo, I think we'll have to wait until Episode VIII. And really, it's not that much longer of a wait. We'll probably get sets for that in February 2017, so only a little over a year from now.

I agree that the list is totally fake. The minifig counts are unnaturally high and make it just seem like a wish list. A Battle of Endor set like that would hurt sales of the Ewok Village and the Tyderium Shuttle. A Geonosis Arena would never have that many figures unless it was Death Star sized. And LEGO wouldn't give us more battle packs in the summer when they've already increased the amount we have in the winter. If we got more in the summer wave, we'd be getting, what, 8 new battle packs a year? Plus 4-8 from the previous year? There'd be way too many on shelves.

That looks like a great set. While the build is a bit random, you can't deny that it's still a great parts pack. This might be the lone Batman v. Superman set I'll get.

Ha, that submarine looks like the limo set from Space Police. And hurray, the Juniors Iron Man is Mark 7!

What the... Well, that escalated quickly. Is that TFA set a different one from the other two? I'm guessing yes since it doesn't seem like it would be called Battle on Takodana or the Pirate Transport. And the stands... will these actually be in sets? While they're extremely simple, I really appreciate that LEGO's doing them. Figures like battle droids definitely need them.

That definitely looks real! Awesome! I bet he's in one of the Microfighters.

I'd prefer a new dress mold all together. What bugs me about the current slope piece is that it makes a figure slightly taller than figures with normal legs. I think that arched piece would probably do the same.

Like others have said, this theme sort of reminds me of LEGO Universe. I like what I'm seeing so far. Chances are I won't end up collecting anything from here, but everything from these sets just looks fun. As for the chances of getting Merlock as a figure... weren't the figures displayed all of the ones we're getting for the entire year? Or just the first wave? I think we could possibly get Merlock in the Library set. If we don't get him there, though, then I'd still say we could get him later on down the line. This theme's going to last at least 3 years.

I think the amount of TFA sets we're getting in the winter wave is perfect. It's not too much, but it's also not a small amount. Two decently sized normal sets, two battle packs, and two microfighters is more than enough for one movie (one movie which we've already got a seven set wave from). Plus, if we got anymore than that, then we'd be getting less sets from other material. Besides, the winter wave's usually smaller anyway.

I've noticed this as well. The coat wasn't really purple, was it? I always thought it was just dark brown. Not that I mind too much (purple is an awesome LEGO color and it makes the outfit look really nice), but I don't think it's completely accurate.

I finally got the Witch I needed. She's such a good figure; I love the purple. I just hate those skirt pieces... they make the figure look good overall and work better than printing, but they're a pain to put on and never fully wrap around the legs.

But what about Maggie from the Simpsons series? Her main assembly was only two parts. I know Pluto would break the trend that we're used to, but I'd say it's still quite likely that we'd get him. LEGO's classified Scooby as a minifigure, so I'm sure they could do the same for Pluto and give him his own bag.

I could see Pluto being two molds, one for the head and one for the body. Just like Scooby. And they did a two mold figure in the Simpsons series with Maggie.

I've only felt these on one occasion so far, but when I did, the Witch was the hardest one for me to find. I felt through about 40 or so and found every one at least once but didn't feel any Witches. I still want her, so hopefully I'll be able to get her when I'm at the LEGO store for double VIP points tomorrow. I really hope this series won't be sold out.
