Brickdoctor Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) Also, I think Hasbro would get mad if The LEGO Group were to sell collectible licensed Star Wars minifigures since it's Hasbro that has the rights to action figures. We don't think Hasbro will get mad - we know Hasbro will get mad. It's not like TLG hasn't done Star Wars collectible minifigs before. Edited May 25, 2011 by Brickdoctor Quote
Mr Man Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 We don't think Hasbro will get mad - we know Hasbro will get mad. It's not like TLG hasn't done Star Wars collectible minifigs before. I loved them; only £4, great deal whereas 3 figs with a stupid magnet brick can cost up to £20 in some shops. Damm Hasbro *shakes fist*. Quote
Jedi master Brick Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 Set name: Flash speeder Minifigures: Padme (battle clothes), Captain Panka, Nabbo guard, Battle droid (2) Comes with: Flash speeder, droidika Price: £35, $40 Quote
Lego Otaku Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 3D Star Wars? I'll watch that only after Lucas delete the Jabba scene in ANH, it's redundant since Greedo said mostly the same thing before he got blasted. Quote

I'll watch that only after Lucas deletes the Jabba scene in ANH, it's redundant since Greedo said mostly the same thing before he got blasted. Not likely all GL seems to do now is add scenes not delete them, anyway that scene was going to be in the original (before He was CGI and was played by a human) the scene was cut due to pacing not because He repeated what Gredo said.

Commander Keller Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 EP.1 Since the remake of TPM is drawing near, maybe we can get another Gungan Patrol with some cool stuff? They already have the new Gungan heads. EP.2 Arena Battle with Padme, Obi, and Ani chained to obelisks. Add the reek, acklay, and nexu and you got yourself a snazzy set. Maybe if we get greedy, throw in Poggle. EP.3 Not much IMO other than specific clone factions with their respective leaders. EP.4 I would like to see a Tusken raider battle pack with a bantha! We also need another set with a dewback(maybe new printing?) EP.5 Cloud city playset remake. Practically everyone wants it, kids will buy it, it should happen. EP.6 Stormies with printed legs heck the clones get em stormies deserve them now. Not sure what else Quote

EP.6 Stormies with printed legs heck the clones get em stormies deserve them now. Not sure what else I think, if they made another Gungan set, they should remake the Kaadu. When the first made them they were all orange. Now they could print it in a similar way as the gungans. Also, the Gungan Sub should be remade. As for EP. 3, we need a new Boga. Again, like the Kaadu, it should have some nice printing for the eyes and such. And I just remembered, what happened to that rumour about the Jabba's Palace set? It seems to have just fizzled away...

Commander Keller Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 I agree with your set ideas Fives. I totally forgot to add new Jabba's Palace with a new printed Jabba and maybe through some Gammorrean guards and Boussh! Quote
Jedi master Brick Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 I doubt that set would cost that much for a small speeder and a few figs maybe £35 at the most. I put £35 down. but with legos prices that is not a ricdulas price. Another idea now. Set name: Clone comamand center Sub-theme: Atack of the clones Minifigures: Yoda (redesign), Clone trooper (2), clone sergeant (red), Clone commander (yellow) Includes: comand center Price: £25,, $28 Quote

I totally forgot to add new Jabba's Palace with a new printed Jabba and maybe through some Gammorrean guards and Boussh! Surely this has got to happen!! We need an improved Jabba and the Gamorrean Guards. I can't remember who the original set included but I'm sure it would also have Leia in Boushh or slave girl attire, Lando and Carbonite han. I think the max rebo band too. Does anyone think the rancor is a possibility?? Quote
The Legonater Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 EP.3 Not much IMO other than specific clone factions with their respective leaders. We desperatly need a new Mustafar set. The last one seemed to be hodge-podgedly thrown together while arbitrarily trying to avoid many spoilers. We need a decent new duel set, with the arm, maybe the beach, and possible some of the station. Quote

I'd like to see the ore-collection droid and platform from the latter half of the duel in such a set as well. Quote
Darth CJ Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Agreed. I'd like to see the ore-collection droid and platform from the latter half of the duel in such a set as well. I would like to add the landing pad where Padme's ship landed. Quote

I doubt we would get any of this. But, I think that the ship that Padme uses to get to Mustafar is more likely. I know that it wouldn't be as awesome, but more likely. THe figs could be Obi-Wan with a new EP.3 design (new double-sided head, new hair), new Anakin/Vader (new double-sided head with one side good, one side evil with yellow eyes, new hair), pregnant Padme (hopefully not just a print), C-3PO and two microfigs (like the ones from the boardgames) done up like the twins.

Lego Otaku Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 What about ships from Naboo? So far there's been only fighter ships from Ep1. What I would like is a Nubian J type 327 in all chrome bricks. Now that'd be a set fit for a Queen ;) Quote

Now that'd be a set fit for a Queen ;) And you'd need a good-sized chunk of the queen's gold to buy a set that expensive. In all seriousness, it'd be quite expensive at System scale or larger, price per piece would be pretty high no matter what, and I don't see TLG doing that much chroming. This is one of those ideas that keeps coming up again and again, but we never get it, and chances are that's because of the cost. Quote
Fallenangel Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 What about ships from Naboo? Virtually all Naboo designs are much too curvaceous and/or organic to look good in LEGO. Just look at 7161. The same could be said for most designs from Menace. The C-9979 and the Lucrehulk are possibilities as playsets (or, if enough AFOLs want them, UCS) but strangely they've been avoided. Quote

The price would be about £219.99 for a medium sized chrome ship or $239.99. Quote
Vindice Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Some people who like new sets, or new versions of old sets may not be too enamoured with this idea but I really think they will re-release vehicles from the clone wars cartoon. The AT-TE, the gunship and some of the droid tanks are no longer available but get so much exposure through the cartoon and the new game that I can't see them not capitalising on it. I missed out on some of those vehicles so I'd actually like to see them again. Quote
StoutFiles Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 I see that being more likely but we should never leave the long shot of another Mustufar set down. There will be a new one in two years to time with the eventual release of Episode III in 3D. Not guaranteeing it but it's the best chance for one. Quote
Ki-Adi-Mundi Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Well, we might very well expect some more on TPM next year. Otoh Gunga (there's already a sub for it), rehashed Vultures (Naboo fighter just reappeared) and the ground Battle (Gungans plus Kaadus / fambaas - the start has be done with the battle droid carrier) do offer plenty opportunity to enlarge existing scenes. I am pretty much expecting some more for Tatooine, too. Yet it features the most outdated LEGO sets and Jabba (palace/boonta eve racing arena - the pod racers are already there to combine), Wattoo (repair shop/market place/cantina) and Maul (duel - he just re-emerged with his new Infiltrator) do for some memorable sets. They would also be valuable because of the numerous later appearances of Tatooine. Some continuity wouldn't harm, i think. Quote

Personally, I'm hoping for at least one large playset per each prequel episode (seeing as most of the OT ones are done)- Theed, Arena, Mustafar. Quote
