Cyanide-Tipped Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 I JUST bought the new Episode 7 Millennium Falcon (opening for Christmas)...but is it still too much wishful thinking to hope for a re-release of a UCS Millennium Falcon? >.< Quote
Darth Kylo Ren Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 We are missing 3 TFA set Kanan's Speeder Spider Droid Quote
Richpepperell Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 That's a new hat on the FO officer-type. It's different from the gate in the TIE and command shuttle sets. The only thing I don't like the look of is the escape pod itself, but will still be getting it for the jawas. Quote
General Magma Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Alright, those are some seriously awesome figures, especially the rebels in the battlepacks, but that First Order battlepack... really? ONE of the new stormtroopers? For Rebels, we got four of those darned stormtroopers in one set, but with these things we keep getting one or two troopers in one battlepack. And in the Battlefront one... they just had to be battle-damaged. Do they not want to give us as many regular stormtroopers as possible? And it's a shame C-3PO doesn't have any printed arms at all. But, complaints aside, I'm very happy with what we're getting here. The Rebel & Resistance battlepacks are absolute must-buys for me, I just love those figures. I JUST bought the new Episode 7 Millennium Falcon (opening for Christmas)...but is it still too much wishful thinking to hope for a re-release of a UCS Millennium Falcon? >.< They might do that eventually, considering the popularity of the 2007 UCS one.

ChiefPie Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 75134 red stormtrooper Don't know what it is from, but it looks amazing! But seriously Lego, stop putting those hideous studshooters in your battle packs. Their from the new battlefront. Quote
Alfadas Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Their from the new battlefront. Thanks! Quote
ArrowBricks Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 What on earth are they thinking including just the one FO stormtrooper. Huge disappointed again on sets... Becoming a constant thing these days with Lego. Quote
Legocity2713 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 So, it looks like the only part of the May the Fourth Han on Hoth figure that is still exclusive is the head. Another disappointment is that only one (1!) TFA Stormtrooper is included in the battle pack. Its still a cool set though and worth the pick up. The Droid Escape is cool only for the figs. I really love that R2D2. They really perfected it in the last few years. And Fett is very cool in the Carbonite set. Pretty good wave this time around. Really feels like iconic Star Wars. Quote
bountybossk Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Might be me, but I count 2 stormies in the FO battle pack (including a pretty cool new one). Wow, you guys are hard to please... Edited November 7, 2015 by bountybossk Quote
Jbricks Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) What is this second storm trooper in the TFA battle pack with the different print? A different type of troop? Hurricanetrooper? Tornadotrooper? Edited November 7, 2015 by Jbricks Quote
wilson3a10 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Hope this can be a cheaper way to get the new first order trooper Quote
Ultron Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 New book, wonder what the exclusive will be. New Lando, maybe? Also, it's getting really annoying with all of the stud shooters. Lego really must not care about their AFOLs who need actual guns for their displays... TFA stormies still have way too much white on them too Quote
Gubi0222 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) *snip* These figures are awesome! All the battlepacks are must buy, and maybe the interceptor too. I like the turrert in the first order bp, and the speeder with the nice big machine gun isn't look bad too. The escape pod looks a little ugly on the front. Edited November 7, 2015 by Lobot : Please don't quote images, thanks :-) Quote
Mahtion Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 What is this second storm trooper in the TFA battle pack with the different print? A different type of troop? Hurricanetrooper? Tornadotrooper? FO Heavy Stormtrooper. They have been seen in promo art. Quote
ArrowBricks Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Might be me, but I count 2 stormies in the FO battle pack (including a pretty cool new one). Wow, you guys are hard to please... Really? Fairly sure I've been supportive of Lego for many years and have been pleased a lot with the good content and quality of the sets. So no I'm not 'hard to please' but just very disappointed with this wave. Yes two stormtroopers there however one, has some printing that's different from the regular one. Quote
wilson3a10 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Need to moc the standing machine guns... Quote
Ultron Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 If you guys actually look at the official picture of the first order, there are a good amount of Officers and First Order Crew. It's about 2/3 stormtroopers and 1/3 of the other guys. Although I totally get the want for more stormies. Quote
TheAmazingDarkKnight Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 I do quite like the 'Finn' looking dude that comes in the First Order battle pack, but the generic officer...what the heck! Do we really need another Officer? Unless they have some intense action sequences, I can't imagine kids having so much fun with a guy who's intended to sit in a chair all day. Why couldn't they just put another plain stormie or a Flametrooper? I'm fine getting extras of this particular pack, but what am I going to do with an army of crew members? It's not like I can fit them in Kylo's shuttle... Also not that big of a fan of that port a potty looking thing with a giant turret mounted on top. Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 I assume (hope) not! Wouldn't we all get something good out of a great figure coming in a small set? Even the people who already have a Slave I could get multiples. Abundance would be better for everyone but the resellers, I think. I am disappointed that the Fett with the arm printing is not in the Cloud City set, and these are final renders. I guess I will have to dish out the cash for the exclusive Slave I version. Quote
Mymaker123 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 I've come around a bit more now in regards to 75132. The actual design and quality of those officers is very nice, and I do love those hat peices. And the other 3 battle packs wipe the floor with last years; those rebels/resistance troopers are absolutley astounding. So, purchases for January! -6 First Order Battle Packs (would of been 4 but I need those extra stormies) -2 Resistance Battle Packs -1 Rebel Alliance Battle Pack -1 Galactic Empire Battle Pack -Possible Resistance Transport depending on price -Possible Takodona depending on price -First Order X-wing MicroFighter There we go! What are you guys thinking of getting? Quote
Lynx Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Thanks for sharing! These are great for the most part! I'll finally be able to get Boba Fett, Jawas and Threepio! :D And an updated Artoo on top of it! The Resistance BP looks fantastic - aside from the stud shooter weapons. Only disappointment is the First Order BP. Exchange that crew member with a stormy, and I'd buy multiples. Quote
ChiefPie Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Probably going to get all of the battle packs. Not getting the cloud city set since I just found both boba fetts. Intercepter yes. Don't want escape pod or hoth turret. Maybe the resistance ship. And the other TFA sets depending on what they are. Quote
TheBrickPal Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 I can't help but feel a tad disappointed by the TFA packs. Only one Stormtrooper in the First Order one, and no BB-8 in the Resistance one? I'll still buy them, but I guess I'll have to get Poe's X-wing Fighter and the First Order Transporter too, now... LEGO is so expensive. Quote
benderisgreat Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Wow finally some images to discuss! Of all sets shown I will be buying all but 75135 and 75138, really dislike that Hoth set. As for the rest I agree with what most of you are saying 75132 is really dissapointing. I knew that Lego won't give us 4 Stormtroopers in a Battlepack but 1,5 Stormtroopers, seriously? They must really want people to buy 75103 FO Transporter. 1,5 Stormtroopers ,FO Crew whom we've already gotten in 2 sets and who we don't need a lot of and technician( seriously who is that guy in a hat)? Also a build in 75132 is awful- a turret! While 75132 was dissapointing 75131 is very nice looking set: 4 resistance soldiers, 3 in helmets all nice looking figures. And a small speeder we get in this set is great compared to FO turret in75132. We've seen Battlefront based packs already so there's no reason to discuss them( buying them right away). Also 75136 is basically improved version of Droid Escape from 2010, got a lot bigger and bulkier, minifigs are nice. I am surprised we haven't gotten pics of Battle for Takodana set, I mean new B-wing like ship was already leaked, and Ep 7 Battlepacks are to so what's to hide? Overall despite some problems with 75132 the wave looks pretty solid. Can't wait to get these sets. Quote
jhaelego Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Would've been nice if they included 2 FO stormies, 1 heavy gunner and the FO crew. This will at least put a lot more of the FO stormies on the market, so I can't complain too much. Quote
