Shakar Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 ^ Indeed they are. Thanks to these and Kopaka, we now have white shells in all sizes. Quote
TeamStucky Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I really like them both! They look really badass and I will be picking them both up :) Quote
Aanchir Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 ^ Indeed they are. Thanks to these and Kopaka, we now have white shells in all sizes. We don't have white 8M shells yet, do we? At least, not counting 8x5 torso shells. Quote
Takanuinuva Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) ^ Indeed they are. Thanks to these and Kopaka, we now have white shells in all sizes. Save for DrillDozer/Waspix long shells and the Brain Attack torsoEdit- Ninja'd by Aanchir Edited April 18, 2015 by Takanuinuva Quote
Shakar Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Oh boy, I forgot about the 8M shells. I was really surprised to see them reused in Lavertus's outpost last year. Too bad they're very hard to use. Silver should be the only colour we have a full set of shells of. White, black and titanium metallic come close. Quote
Takanuinuva Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Is Cody's shoulder armor the same as on Obi Wan or is it bigger? Quote

Scarilian Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Cody is the second worst revealed so far, Luke taking the worst position. Nothing particularly wrong with the sets in general so far and they are fairly accurate other than some gaps or missed opportunities, just that Luke has limited new pieces when compared to Cody. jesus christ, why do system folks even come to this subforum... This is the constraction/system subforum... not sure why you are questioning why constraction/system fans are here Quote

Dorek Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 This is the constraction/system subforum... not sure why you are questioning why constraction/system fans are here Technically this is just for constraction, which is why it's a bit odd that system fans come on with pre-established notions about the line already. that aside, is anyone here getting multiples of the sets for display and parts? Unlikely, since these get pretty pricey. Depends on what I can afford =P. Quote
DraikNova Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 We also don't have the Drilldozer chestplate in white. Or any color besides black, really. Purple exists in shell sizes 3, 4 and 6, Breakout torso format and as the shoulder armor piece, which isn't that much. Hasn't this one wave basically made tan more prominent than purple? Quote
TheOneVeyronian Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I noticed a mistake in the Grievous high-res render. One of the ball cups isn't correctly connected into his right foot Cody looks excellent. I wonder if the visor on the helmet is removable? If so - it'd be pretty good if you had the desire to make an army of generic constraction Phase II Clone Troopers (if you can bear to scrub the printed orange off some of the shells with magic eraser of course ). White 4M shells also come in Obi-Wan, don't forget (and I am glad to see them finally being made). As for the legs - I don't know, I guess it wouldn't hurt to mod in Obi's / Luke's lower leg build for Cody. Now just waiting for Jango... I'm just hoping they don't make him all silver given that Cody is almost all white Quote
Dr_Chronos Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Im kind of more intrested to see what lego does after this wave. Will they make some SW7 figures or some characters from the original 6? I know a lot of people are excited for jango for the possibility of sand blue, but can you imagine an episode 2 (sand blue) super battle droid! Its unlikely but still amazing.

VBBN Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Whatever the next wave holds I think it's safe to assume it'll keep the half villains, half heroes formula as this one. Wouldn't mind getting that Cody buffed into Rex.. I know a lot of people are excited for jango for the possibility of sand blue, but can you imagine an episode 2 (sand blue) super battle droid! Its unlikely but still amazing. Or bring back the old titanium blue I CAN DREAM OK jesus christ, why do system folks even come to this subforum... We do have System themes here too including Mixels, no need to refer to "system fans" as an enemy faction or something. Quote
Zorglorfian Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Are there any sets to purchase at the Fan Convention in Anaheim? My cousin said he would be there on Sunday. What would you guys reccommend (exclusives, new sets, etc)? Quote
Shakar Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Ooh boy, it's really sand blue! Also, nice silver recolours. Definite buy for me. Quote
DraikNova Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Only two sand blue shells? That really feels like a wasted opportunity. Quote
zmasterbrick Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Say what you want, but Lego is leaving it's roots behind with these kind of sets. They are starting to look like Playmobile. Quote
Shakar Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Say what you want, but Lego is leaving it's roots behind with these kind of sets. They are starting to look like Playmobile. They're four, only that the ones on his legs are stickered (hopefully) or printed (more likely, as it's custom for 6M shells). Edited April 18, 2015 by Shakar Quote
TheOneVeyronian Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I'm glad to see my fears about the jetpack being one big mould or even missing were unfounded - but I still can't help feeling underwhelmed by it I am absolutely delighted by the inclusion of sand blue, but really, it could use more than just 2 shells (those 6M shells on his upper legs are silver, right? The lighting in the video isn't the best, I'm struggling to make out the colours. The 6M's could be sand blue or silver...). I don't think Jango was 85% silver in the film... Jango is better than Luke, but to me, the best bit about Jango is the delicious recolours, he seems to fall a little bit short of the other figures for me in terms of design. Maybe my opinion will change once I've got my hands on all 6. All I know is I'm going to need to buy 2 of each, one for the set, one for the parts Quote
Nekchir Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Say what you want, but Lego is leaving it's roots behind with these kind of sets. They are starting to look like Playmobile. What does this even mean? Quote
DraikNova Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Shakar, you quoted the wrong post. And I kinda feel that printed parts don't really count, as they are significantly less useful than plain ones. Quote
VBBN Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 I never realized how awfully out of place that blue on his helmet was until seeing that Quote
