DJ Force, the prototype could be this one:

[Brainbox]

Yeah, I was thinking of that too. Does that mean that the other cars there could be future possibilities? You could MOD the Aston Martin into the 'Bondmobile'.

Actually, do I remember a vote or something as to which car would be made 'official' or am I just making that up?

You are right: our former LEGO ambassador asked (october 2006) our spanish community about what car we wanted to see built into LEGO. The question was suggested by LEGO itself, of course.

There were some restrictions:

- the car should be for display, which means with only few functions

- the car should get a body build with System bricks

- the car should be very iconic/well know in Europe and US

- the car should be from the past 30 years

So we voted, the winner was Beetle... and here it is ^^

Very nice news, although I hope they will also made new little town sets for every shop.

As a star wars fan the news of the death star sounds fantastic!! For so long fans have asked for a death star playset, so i hope that is what this is. As for the general grevious i hope it is a full figure statue type thing like the one of vader that was shown at a toy fair with the death star 2 (sorry tried to find the pic but no luck :-( ).

[Mr Hobbles]

I hope that the Town Plan (What should this be? The name doesn't tell me anything.) and the Green Grocer will not be Modular sets. That would be really bad because I don't like Caf

[xwingyoda]

A SW Death Star in minifig scale would be so great - I have dreamed lots of years getting something like this!

I only hope that it'll come with Imperial Navy Troopers and some new Imperial Officers (in black and light grey suits)! That would be brilliant!

You can bet there will be that great fig Death Star Troopers (aka Navy TRoopers) and one of the rooms wiill be a cell bloke with Leia and that round medical droid

and off course a glorious Trash Compactor hehe

And off course a imperial command center.

I forsee Vader, Luke, Han, Leia, DS Troopers (at least 2), 2 imperial officers and a new high ranked officer !! and a medical droid and a mouse droid.

Lets hope I'm correct :-P

DS On !! That is the set that I really want to know more asap !!

*yoda*

[PSPguy]

Wheres the stormie love *yoda*?

[trooperdavinfelth]

Yoda, it's not a Medical droid, it's an Interrogation droid, numbered IT-O. Plus, a Minifig scale DS would be absolutely insane. I can't even see how they could manage such a mammoth project. But nonetheless, I hope for Death Star Troopers! AND the Death Star Planning room!

Lots of Imp Officers ON!

Actually, forgot to ask, why do we think these are 2008? Surely LEGO must have something up their sleeve for the 2007 holiday season...

I thought the same of this. LEGO wouldn't be uploading (and later removing) exclusives in the middle of a year just to have them released next year. I'm crossing my fingers, but not getting my hopes up, that these sets will be shown within maybe two months (Remember how it went down with 10173?).

I'm also thinking that town plan just might be the "small shops" set we've always wanted, altough the large amount of car-related bricks suggest otherwise.

And a ntoher modular building. *sweet* Pity I'm running out of space after I pick up Market Street on monday. |-/

[CopMike]

Late in - only to go *wub* *wub* *wub* and >:-( (that was the wallet speaking!).

All of you that did manage to see the other sets partslist - you must have those pictures in your computers cache memory. Please start digging & posting :'-)!!!!!

Cache On

Looking at them, I hope some great sets! And I know we will have!

Can '08 will be more LEGOexpensive than '07?... Really? :-D

I really don't think LEGO would want to release any more exclusives this year. It's already been an expensive year, we don't want more! :-P

Hell yeah - what you gonna though about it! Huh? >:-)

Actaully, this about how deep my computer knowledge goes :'-)!

Wheres the stormie love *yoda*?

Its still there and strong mind you >:-) However, since we're having a stormie BP in jan, we don't want to waste precious MF space :-P

Yoda, it's not a Medical droid, it's an Interrogation droid, numbered IT-O. Plus, a Minifig scale DS would be absolutely insane.

Tks for the info, I never remember those technical names :-D And I never said a MF DS, that would be stupid !! I was talking about a MF playset ;-)

Ahh, kk. I gotcha. Of course, I told myself, 'A minifig scale Death Star? Probably'd be as big as my house! Anyways, yeah! Playsets would be awesome. Maybe they'd spark on the new DS 1 set! That'd get a nice fire.

That's interesting. I wonder what it is.

[trooperdavinfelth]

I just skimmed through the list of parts to get and one of them was a Skeleton mk. II head. 8-

It's only as big as your house if your house is 5km diagonally. So unless you own the pentagon, I kinda doubt your "house" will be able to fit a MF DS. :-P

Remember that the DS is a mini sun. even if shrinking down to MF scale, it is still quite large. Hehe, before being smartass with the reply might want to rethink your own. ;-)

LOL, I do that a lot, don't I? I screw up with Vader about the Complete Saga and Wookiepedia and here I'm just stupider. :-D Anyway, a lack of a minifig scale Death Star notwithstanding, who think there will be a mini-model to come with it? I doubt there'll be another SSD, but maybe an ISD, or a VSD?
