@Redroe Right I get your argument; I can see where you’re coming from.

I’m also glad you quoted my analysis from a few days ago and expanded on my thoughts, which is great deffo agree with you there! 

@Mandalorianknight I really need to keep up with the forums as I wasn’t aware about the fake minifigure line ups. I agree the with B-Wing needing a rerelease but I think a Resistance version would be excellent and would provide a great way to get Aftab Ackbar and maybe some other aliens. 

On the topic of completely new sets altogether or much needed remakes here are a few: 

TPM: Gian Speeder, Trade Federation Lansing Craft, Skywalker Homestead, Naboo Royal Starship 

AOTC: SPHA-T, Petranaki Arena, Jango Fett’s Slave One, Padme’s Nubian Yacht, Count Dooku’s Solar Sailor, Geonosian Starfighter(movie accurate Geonosians - 2002/3)

ROTS: Invisible Hand, Arc-170, AT-OT, UT-AT, Senate Duel, Jedi Temple, Padme’s Star Skiff, Brown Separatist Shuttle, Wookie Catamaran/Ornithopter (AT-RT Driver)

OT: Twin-Pod Cloud Car w/accurate orange, Tie Interceptor, Tie Bomber, Endor bunker w/Ewok traps, catapults and gliders, GR-75 Transport (scaled down like Malevolence would be tasty imo), Yavin Temple, More Jabba’s palace/sail barge aliens probably UCS though. 

TLJ + TROS (TFA is represented well imo): Canto Bight Speeder, Tallie’s A-Wing, Ochi’s Bestoon legacy, Treadable Tank (seen on Passana), blue pasanna speeder, UA-TT, Babu Frik, Final Order Star Destroyer, B-Wing, Death Star ruins w/ Water Skimmer, Duel on Exegol, The Fortitude (Resistance Troop carrier). 

Plenty of stuff from TM s1/2 e.g. Tie Outlander, aswell as Jedi Fallen Order + Galaxy’s Edge e.g. Tie Echelon  (has Malgus’ fury class interceptor vibes) 

TCW s7: 212th troopers, Separatist Tri-droid, at-te, Gunship, Venator, The Silver Angel (light blue Ahsoka outfit + maybe some Pykes with the twin sisters), Republic Attack Shuttle (carrying Maul and new shock troopers), CIS Proton Cannon (added blue elements to the 2011 Battle on Geonosis version), Mandalorian Fighter, Havoc Marauder, Z-95 Headhunter, CIS MTT, Republic Y-wing (blue or yellow)...there’s so many more probably. 

The point is Lego play it safe with their waves and just include main characters from each era (part of my main argument about too much plurality in waves). There’s so many sets here that could include main characters but could also survive very well without them. @Redroe during lockdown I did a huge prequel list set ideas from each film so if you want even more ideas they’re probably around 10 or so pages back (May/June time I think) haha!

Seriously as a kid I loved obscure characters and ships aswell as the classics. Right now it seems Lego are catering to the ‘new’ fan of Lego rather than its core base of loyal long-stand collectors.

Wow you went deep. Haha! Seriously though... you can see why most of those sets were never made (and probably won't be). I honestly count anything from a game or something like the IT-S as a real curate's egg, they will get a single set as part of the marleting push at day of release and if not that... never. Same for animated show stuff, but to a lesser degree.

I'd like to see a stand alone release of a Cloud Car in any colour - orange preferably but red works ok too. Apart from its inclusion in the Cloud City set the last time there was a playscale version of this craft was in 2002. I understand TLG wouldn't want the Cloud Car on shelves at the same time as BACC but it could be released say 18 months later/any time after the MBS set retires. This could also apply to the V35 landspeeder after Mos Eisley retires.

Has CC not already retired? Pretty sure it was unavailable on S@H in UK.

Sorry, was trying to give an idea about how such a release could have worked. I should have said 'now that the MBS set has retired'.

I agree, I'm not sure why it hasn't seen a re-release as it's an ideal candidate for a £20ish set. I guess it's not as recognisable or playable as other options, but still - I'd pick up a Cloud Car with Lobot, a Bespin Guard and maybe a Stormtrooper in a heartbeat.

Hm, quite possible. Do it in red then, I don't mind! :laugh:

Yes it should definitely be a set! Even if they did orange and raised the price a bit people would still pay. The figure potential is great too with the Cloud Car Pilots only available in that Cloud City set.

@Redroe, @MaximillianRebo , @TeddytheSpoon

I can’t remember where I read this from but I’m certain that the reason why a Cloud City car hasn’t been done in orange is because of how expensive it would be. (Might have been Brickset review of mbs Cloud City) 

Not sure I buy that (though I would definitely buy it!) I haven't done an inventory but I am confident that most if not all of the parts are available in dark orange, the closer match, if not normal orange which is actually less screen accurate than the red. Is orange a notoriously expensive colour?

I always see it as red anyway! See the newer releases of TESB with the special swoopy scene over the Bespin rooftops, then a couple sat on a landing pad opposite Leia's window? Those things are red. Brick red maybe, but red. And that's broad daylight, no sunset colouration. I can't help but think that it's a bit of special-edition hate at work that insists on the orange. And yes I know about original prop colour etc... but I can't say the colour of a prop in a studio is as relevant as the appearance in the film. 

I'm more bothered that they get the shape right. The one in B@CC was a lovely, lovely model but it still wasn't quite the right shape.

And an advent calendar don't forget. Just to P off any AFOLs who'd sunk money in them on bricklink.

Looking at the most recent cloud car from B@CC, most parts from that are available in dark orange. I think this might stem from dark orange being more expensive on bricklink due to a lower amount of sets with the color than red, though I doubt dark orange is a much more expensive color for lego to produce.

I recently had the amazing opportunity to watch The Empire Strikes Back in theaters, and between that and images from google, it definitely looks more of an orange than red.

Cloud Car | StarWars.com

I 100% agree it needs a set though, it's a pretty well-known vehicle, could come with some iconic figures, and only needs to be about $20. Though I might be a bit biased, I'm a big fan of the cloud car pilot design and if they were cheaper on bricklink I would probably amass a small army. The red/white color scheme coupled with that helmet makes them look like alliance special forces to me.

You're totally right, a resistance b-wing would be an excellent set. And it totally would be a great opportunity to get some great new figures too, like ackbar's son like you said, and also a new general leia, beaumont kin, maybe some of the battlefront 2 resistance alien special forces (caphex spy and ovissian gunner).

I'd replace chewie with han and then add chewie and boushh leia to the palace, maybe add lyn me somewhere, but that's a minor gripe and pretty subjective. I'd buy all of these, I love the scum/bounty hunter themed sets.

Allow me to continue to the second half of the film with a battle of endor wave, again very unlikely. 

Scout walker vs ewok glider ($19.99): AT-ST driver and Wicket

Lambda shuttle ($9.99): imperial pilot

A-wing ($9.99): A-wing pilot

rebel commandos ($14.99): 2x rebel commando (green trench coat with bandolier), 1x rebel commando (tan vest), 1x rebel commando (tan vest, white shirt). Build is a tree with a net trap.

Endor troopers ($14.99): 2x stormtrooper, 1x scout trooper, 1x navy trooper. Build is a speeder bike and a small bit of the bunker, sort of like a small radio antenne or satellite.

Speeder bikes ($24.99): 2 speeder bikes, a tree build, and a bit of terrain. Figures are Endor Luke, a scout trooper, and Endor Leia.

Ewok Attack ($29.99, 501st legion style): Ewok glider and catapult with Teebo, Tugtar (squadrons), an ewok scout (based on the swgoh character), a rebel commando, and a scout trooper.

Ewok Village ($49.99): A village build built from 3 trees with the connected platform/huts. There is a small catapult function and a rock-drop feature. Comes with Chirpa, Logray, a baby ewok (using baby mold with specialized head), C-3PO, and 2 stormtroopers.

AT-ST ambush ($79.99): An AT-ST walker, along with two trees on either side with a log smash function. Comes with Paploo, Wicket, Chewbacca, 2x AT-ST driver, and a stormtrooper.

Endor bunker ($159.99): Large endor bunker build with satellite on top. Comes with Endor Han, Endor Leia, R2-D2, Rex, a rebel commando, 2x imperial navy trooper, 2x stormtrooper, 2x scout trooper, and an imperial officer.

There were already such sets.

Yes I mentioned my ideas we re-releases. Plenty of scope to make the sets different including figures, designs etc. Like instead of the Palace having a tower it could have just a gate which you can attach and have a small entrance on one side of the palace and then a droid workshop attached on the other side using technic pins or something.

I'd prefer the next Jabba's Palace to be a MBS set. They did an amazing job with the cantina and I'd like to see the palace receive that same level of detail.

Even better would be if they released one in close proximity to a UCS Sail Barge. If both sets had the same character count as the cantina you'd be looking at 42 minifigures total - plus the additional Jabba/Rancor big figs filling in for the dewback.

Cue the meltdown as we start arguing over whether the Sail Barge classed as UCS or MBS. :laugh:

These are my dream sets. As i've noted previously, I have serious doubts about them ever happening. My favourite bits of the movies, bar none. I missed out on Jabba's Palace and the SB due to having no money at the time, so despite having most of the key figs off Bricklink since, I'd give my left arm for new releases. 

Sy Snootles and Ephant Mon for the palace and Yak Face and Tessek for the sail barge. Those would be my top minifig picks.

Depends on how much interior detail there is.

And if it includes max rebo, because if it doesn't, it's automatically the same category as assault on hoth. :laugh:

A jabba's palace MBS would be pretty nice, and with the new 18+ label they could probably get away with some of the stuff there's been faux-controversy about. I have an idea for something similar they could do...

Jabba's palace ($499.99): Massive, 2500-ish piece jabba's palace, 2000-ish piece sail barge, sarlacc build, brick-built bantha, and skiff. Jabba's palace is built sort of like the old 2003 model in terms of layout, with two side areas. One consisting of a droid workshop/torture room and a prison, the other consisting of the gate area and a small guard post (maybe with a jukebox as a reference to the 2006 game), with some stairs on either side towards the main room, which is jabba's throne room. a trapdoor function drops unlucky figures into the lower part of the center build, the rancor pit. A molded rancor is included. The sail barge has the deck gun and the interior consists of a throne room for jabba, bar/viewing area, and prison cell. The skiff has a plank for luke to walk and a small build that can retract into the bottom of it representing the droid magnet. Included figures are: Jabba Desilijic Tiure (like his 2012 molds), Salacious B. Crumb (single mold), Rancor (molded like 2013 set), Bib fortuna, 2 gamorrean guards, Boba Fett, buildable B'morr monk, Luke, Boushh leia, Chewie, Han (carbonite piece and normal figure of course), Huttslayer leia, Lando (disguise), C-3PO, R2-D2, EV-9d9, GNK droid, EV-8d8, Oola, Max Rebo, Sny Snootles, Lyn Me, Ephant Mon, Yak Face, Tessek, Kithba, ishi tib thug, weequay thug, and Ree-yes.

Yeah there's a few more figures than the death star (most comparable set based on price and style), but since quite a few are battle droid type, built from bricks, or one small mold (salacious crumb, 9d9 and 8d8, gonk droid, etc), I think it's still a reasonable number.

I don't think they'd do the palace and sail barge as a single set (at least I hope not). Imagine getting that past a marketing person! "You mean we could sell this twice?"

I'd want the sail barge to be basically a remake of the 2006 one, with a thousand more parts. Two skiffs instead of one, and not ugly like the 2016(?) one. A sarlacc of course with more built up terrain that supports the skiffs. Figures are a tough call. Jabba, Boba Fett, kithaba, Barada, Nikto, Weequay, Luke, Han, Slave Leia, Lando in disguise, 2x droids, Chewie are the bare essentials and that takes us to 13! Add Yak Face and Tessek. 

The palace should have the three main visible components: the main rotunda, tower and dome. Then you can lay it out like a Hogwarts. The dome has the trophy wall with a little lever to flip round the carbonite, and the droid dungeon. Tower has the main gate, a cubby hole for some awful freak aliens to hide in, and a guard post. Main build is the throne room and rancor pit exactly as 2012.

Figures for the palace are so numerous I would struggle to pick. But lets set an upper limit of 20.

7x Core crew: Luke, Han, Chewie, 2 droids, Lando, Leia as Boushh.

7x villains: Jabba, Bib Fortuna, Salacious Crumb, Boba Fett, Malakili, Gamorrean, EV9D9. 

6x AFOL-baiting exclusive minor characters: 8D8, Ephant Mon, Sy Snootles, Amanaman, Max Rebo and Ree Yees. 

5 new molds in there which seems comparable to the cantina. I can't see them doing more for a single release. You can play tunes on it: I would like the big woolly guy whose name escapes me, and Bubo, and Rystall but I think that list is probably the most realistic.

Sadly the days of TLG releasing a wave of complementary sets seem to be behind us, they have a wide range of sources to pick from and they're going with the approach of throwing mud at a wall. A "Jabba's thugs" battle pack would be utterly beautiful but they have taken to releasing smaller stuff as part of big MBs sets. (Aforementioned Cloud Car, v35 landspeeder, etc).

but given all the faux-controversy about lego, marketing it as 18+ and making it one big set (as if it were two sets, and given that we get one MBS set every 2 years, that's either a minimum 3-4 year span of jabba-only MBS sets, or just a huge gap between sets.) should actually make it more palatable to the marketing people. Sort of getting it out of the way so all the possibly controversial things are put into one set marketed towards adults.

That's true. I imagine it would mean  a less-good version of each location though, and no way we would get the full suite of 40 minifigs. A couple new molds maybe but they probably wouldn't reuse characters like Oola or Max Rebo in favour of new exclusives.

Well, the campaign starts here. Jabba for 2022, Lego!

I would buy everything on the list if I could, these are great set ideas. You've got a nice balance between eras, too, only thing I would say is maybe replace the republic shuttle with either another endor type set or a separatist ship.

 

It's been about 6 months or so since the last time I did this, so I'm going to start again with an updated list for each film and show. First off, The Phantom Menace.

Microfighters:

Republic Frigate ($9.99): Maoi Madakor

Lucrehulk battleship ($9.99): Nute Gunrey

Kaadu versus AAT ($19.99): Jar Jar and OOM-9

Battle packs:

Naboo defenders ($14.99): Naboo security guard (x2), gungan warrior (x2). Build is a kaadu and a small bit of terrain.

Trade Federation droids ($14.99): 4x battle droid, 2x security battle droid. Build is a STAP, droidika, and small control panel.

Full sets:

Duel on tatooine ($19.99): Maul's speeder and a moisture vaporator, just like the 1999 set. Comes with Maul and Qui-gon

Saving the Queen ($29.99): Bit of naboo architecture with a balcony for the jedi to drop down from. Comes with Obi-wan, Queen Amidala, and 2 battle droids.

Flash speeder ($39.99): Flash speeder build with naboo pilot, naboo security guard, Captain Panaka, and 2 battle droids.

The Duel of the Fates ($59.99): Large Naboo reactor area with catwalks extending across multiple levels to the pit Maul falls into. A representation of the ray shield hallway is included. Comes with Qui-gon, Obi-wan, and Darth Maul.

Naboo starfighter vs vulture droid ($69.99): Naboo starfighter and vulture droid (smaller than 2014's vulture droid), along with a landing dock for the naboo starfighter. Comes with Young anakin, R2-D2, naboo pilot, Padme (Purple battle uniform), security battle droid, droidika.

MTT ($129.99): Large MTT build with room for 14 battle droids to fold up inside. Also comes with 2 battle droid pilots to drive it, Boss Nass, and a gungan warrior.

Republic Frigate ($139.99): large republic frigate in the red counselor color with Obi-wan, Qui-gon, Maoi Madakor, 2x republic judicial trooper,  Nute Gunray, Rune Haako, TC-14, and a build for the walking hologram platform with a palpatine hologram on it.


UCS: Lucrehulk battleship ($399.99): Nute Gunray

After doing this I can see why TPM gets so few sets, the only real iconic things are the duel of the fates and the naboo starfighter, as well as stuff that's more well known for it's clone wars version like the republic frigate or vulture droid.
