January 31, 20169 yr Guessing we didn't see Anakin's pod because it's an exclusive, right? Did we ever at least hear the minifigs it's going to have?
January 31, 20169 yr I find it a bit careless on the designer's part not to take notice of things like skin tone, etc. ... I think it's more that they have to try to make an approximation in terms of thing like skin tone and I guess they feel like light flesh would be the closest. While I personally think the skin tone they used for Kanan would work better for Sabine, the Clones, and any future Jango and Boba figs, Lego obviously feels differently.

January 31, 20169 yr If I remember correctly, the alleged Podracer was revealed by exploiting s@h links (someone entered random set numbers in a certain URL and the system added the set names accordingly). The set number that was brought up that way now belongs to one of the Freemaker Adventure sets, so it was either a codename or the set was simply replaced
January 31, 20169 yr That white bandana minifigure has to be dengar, it even has a new bandana. Isn't that set from the freemaker adventures? Such a weird set.

The modern PT minifigs/sets are so expensive, and the sets themselves are eh. It's too bad they don't make those small vignette sets anymore. Duel of the Fates would be pretty awesome. Better yet, I'd be all over an $80 Duel of the Fates ala the new Final Duel set. Edited February 1, 20169 yr by Pedilego

February 1, 20169 yr Hopefully the podracer is still happening and someone just got the set number mixed up.
February 1, 20169 yr I picked up the 2011 version of the podracer when it came out and I really don't care for it to been updated. I believe the last two years has brought us only one exclusive set per year in the summer wave as well. Which means if the rumours are correct it will be a set with Ashoka and the Seventh Sister.

Fingers crossed for a Rebel Blockade Runner - although I guess the chances aren't great with three big sets already.
February 1, 20169 yr Does anyone know if the VIP early access in Feb is the UCS Hoth? Nope, that's the Batcave set The Hoth set is rumored to be released in May
February 1, 20169 yr Nope, that's the Batcave set The Hoth set is rumored to be released in May Great! thanks for the update
February 1, 20169 yr Fingers crossed for a Rebel Blockade Runner - although I guess the chances aren't great with three big sets already. I wish that would happen, but unfortunately I can't see us getting that until at least next summer. Edited February 1, 20169 yr by Legoman123
February 1, 20169 yr Lawrence Kasdan, JJ Abrams, and Andy Serkis. And none of those guys (especially JJ) have ever misdirected an audience with lies... KAAAHHHHNNNN!!!!
February 1, 20169 yr And none of those guys (especially JJ) have ever misdirected an audience with lies... KAAAHHHHNNNN!!!! JJ has gone on record that he regrets the lies about Khan. He's not doing that with Star Wars. People tried to use the Khan precedent before the premiere to suggest that Kylo and Rey really were the Solo Twins, that Kylo was really Sith, that Kylo was Anakin, that Luke was Kylo, that Luke was Snoke, any number of things. Now people are trying to use it to back up Snoke as Plagueis. When will they learn?
February 1, 20169 yr The only thing I could maybe see would be Snoke is Palpatines secret apprentice. MAYBE.
February 1, 20169 yr Heck no, LEGO wouldn't go near a character who regularly watches "Wookiee-porn" with a ten foot pole. A snow-covered Chewbacca is much more likely. who knows they made oola and she is practicly naked. they might even include his thins he used to watch it /s
February 1, 20169 yr We really need to stop discussing this Snoke business. It was okay for a few posts but it's seriously dragging on now. We won't find out until December 2017 anyway so let's just leave it there.
February 1, 20169 yr So can we talk about the elephant in the room? In the U.S. we still haven't seen 13 of the January '16 sets. So I'm weary about if and when we'll see these, let alone the summer sets.

February 1, 20169 yr That white bandana minifigure has to be dengar, it even has a new bandana. Isn't that set from the freemaker adventures? Such a weird set. Yes, it has to be dengar. It's a smart move by Lego to add popular OT caracters in other SW-lines, just like they did with the 75051 Jedi Scout Fighter, that had both an ithorian and a RA-7 Protocol droid.
