Mr Man Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 You need two dogs and Shmi. I forgot about Shmi. An Attack The Only Clone Anakin? Oops changed . A good idea though . Quote
StoutFiles Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I don't think we'll ever see raped/beaten Shmi, but that's just my guess. Quote
Mr Man Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I don't think we'll ever see raped/beaten Shmi, but that's just my guess. Why? We saw a burnt mutilated Anakin, and Leia in what amounts to bondage. Quote
StoutFiles Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Why? We saw a burnt mutilated Anakin, and Leia in what amounts to bondage. Leia's slavery amounted to wearing a bikini and sitting next to a slug. Anakin showed the perils of lying in lava/coals/whatever, and he was the evil character. Shmi was sold to monsters who savagely raped and beat her to death. I shouldn't need to explain how that trumps the other two. I don't know how TLG would spin it if a mother saw their child act out that scene, especially the implied parts. Not to mention Anakin murders everyone after, including the women and children. Society really frowns upon that, especially in children's toys. TLG made this scene once before and they left out both Shmi and women/children. That's probably what they would do again.

Otum Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 No matter what new sets would be, always that they release something never built in sets. And a free set for review in our magazine will be welcomed Quote

Surly they would have to leave out Anakin and the Tuskens as well then as he indiscriminately kills them all. The implication of what Leia was doing in that position was just as clear as what happened to Shmi. When I first saw AOTC, I was a child and caught no other implications to that scene other than the naughty Tusken's kidnapped and tied up Shmi, I would hope most children now would only make that out. Also what could you act out with chained up Leia and Jabba? Quote
Poison Ivy Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) To add my 2 cents to this discussion, remember that the prequels have a lot of scenes that are not exactly child-appropriate, Anakin murdering the Tuskens being one of the least of them. There's also Anakin murdering his wife, a drug dealer trying to get Obi to buy death sticks, and then the others mentioned here. Just because it's violent in the movie doesn't mean it has to be in LEGO. TLC has taken more than one "artistic interpretation" in their sets before. Maybe we all need to keep a cool head and stop arguing about something that probably should go in the SW discussion thread in C&M instead of posting it here.

Also what could you act out with chained up Leia and Jabba? Leia is never shown with a bruise on her. Shmi has clearly been tortured with visible evidence. One escapes while the other dies from her torture. Leia's scene is looked back on fondly as "hot girl in bikini". Shmi's scene is looked back on negatively as "horrible female abuse". If you don't see the difference then I'm not sure what else I can say. Even Hasbro, who has made a figure for practically everyone in every outfit, hasn't touched that subject to my knowledge. Mothers are the leading buyers of these sets; why would they buy a set with "Tortured Mother"? I don't really care if they do or not, I'd just be shocked if TLG takes that risk. Quote

I still think LEGO could do it. If they re-released that set but with more stuff, I feel they would do it wrong if Shmi wasn't here. She is pivotal to that scene. I mean, they did a wounded Luke in a diaper in the latest Hoth set. He looks pretty beaten up because of a monster. They could just do a dazed looking Shmi, or a scared one. They could design the fig so it could be used as either the AOTC version or a TPM version. In the end, though, I want an OT set with Tuskens, because that is where they are most famous from. Quote

rakky Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Extra scenes for jabbas palace, kind of like a mini modular idea: Band area: podium for band with Max Rebo, sny snookles and the other tubby walrus thing. rancor den: big pit with gate, rancor, gamorrean, luke and beast master. prison: blind Han, Chewie, Gamorrean guard. Droid bay: Evil red droid, gonk droid, c3p0 and R2, maybe the droid who is lowering the brand onto the gonk. Tunnel: with Luke, Gamorrean, Bib and a Bo'marr. entourage drinking area: yak face, Tesseck, Ephont mon. Never going to happen but I can dream. Quote
Sam892 Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Really wish Lego would remake the cantina from 2004. I've got the original but with the new moulds Lego could make an awesome set. It should be the same size as the new jabbas palace. Could Include Luke, Ben, Han, chewy, poda, greedo, jawas, bartender, the guy with the messed up face dunno his name and the cantina band. Also through in a room to the side to hide 3po and r2 Quote
Brickmamba Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 I think the majority of us desperately want that. Two Tuskens and a Bantha is all I ask for. Another land-speeder set! Seriously this would be gold Quote
rakky Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 I would love to see that as well, it would be a pricey set with so many figs but worth it. Also a minifigur of snaggletooth would be awesome as well. Quote

Ebak Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Given the recent annoucement and the final episodes of the Clone Wars, we can expect to probably see a Droid VS Nightsister battlepack and maybe some sets from the upcoming episodes...Ventress...Grevious...I'm also hoping for a Young Bounty Hunter Boba Fett minifig and a new Dengar.

I really want minifigs of Cyborg Maul and Mother Talzin. Besides Boba they are the only recurring villains left on the show that haven't been made into lego yet. Nightsister Ventress would be pretty cool though. Quote
Sam892 Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Remembered yesterday that a rumoured set earlier this year was a droid factory based on the clone wars. The I thought if it was real that maybe the TLC delayed it for a year and changed it do its based on episode 2. I remember reading somewhere that it was rumoured to contain poggle the lesser but I really hope it has a c3po based on attack of the clones : ) Quote
