CT-22-2759 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Those seem like unusually high minifig-counts for sets in those price-ranges... I am a tad bit sceptical... When I saw this: "ARC-170 Fighter - 75161 - £59.99. (2 Clone Pilots, 1 Clone Trooper, Plo Koon & Astromech Droid)." It got me wondering. Will the Clone Pilots have new visor molded helmets like them Resistance X-Wing pilot helmets? Also there should be 3 Clone Pilots since the ARC-170 also has a rear gunner position. It does get me wondering whether this will be like the movie or animated series version... Quote
MartinCliffe Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 While I'm not overly confident or optimistic about this list, should it be true then I'd be very happy... and let's face it, I'm probably going to buy all of them anyway ;) Wonder what happened to 75156 and 75159 though... Quote
CT-22-2759 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Galactic Empire BP review (russian) That red shock trooper is ugly as hell And in typical Lego 'laziness' , the helmet is blank at the back and partial leg printing... Jump-packs are superb though! Also, weapons suggestions for each of them. Shock Trooper: Brickarms Lewis Gun, MG34 or the E-11 Jump Troopers: 2x Brickarms Lewis Guns Imperial Technician: E-11 or DL-44, also Brickarms. (The BA DH-17 release date is still unknown...)

Also, in typical Lego fashion, the printing for all the figures is either a tad to the left or right... Will still get this, along with another Shock Trooper, Imperial Technician and the jump packs as loose parts... Quote
bootz Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) I really hope the A-wing holds true, that'd exactly the set I want. The UCS set is particularly interesting though, if it's true and its an OT set with 19 figs, perhaps it could be a proper Cloud City? Edited December 6, 2015 by bootz Quote

Dameronian Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Wow, didn't expect an ARC 170 remake at all!!! Both the A Wing and even more so the ARC 170, have quite some more pieces than the older sets. In case of the A Wing it could be an extra ladder, fuel pump and ammo cart (as with the new Naboo Starfighter), but with the old 8088 ARC at just 438 pieces, the new set seems like a totally different design!

deskp Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) That list seems quite fake to me for several reasons. The Biggest being the finn/kylo duel set. We are getting a small set with both those characters already and it's the Takodana set. Edited December 6, 2015 by deskp Quote
CM4Sci Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) A Duel of the Fates set with no Darth Maul? Another Anakin Podracer? Another Finn and Kylo set? It's a no from me. Edited December 6, 2015 by CM4Sci Quote
TheBrickHitHouse Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 The rumoured sets are 100% accurate Remember the rule: 'If the sets are inexplicable (i.e seemingly random sets that no one was asking for and don't feature anything from Episode 2), then the rumour is true. If the sets seem to make sense, with a lot of highly requested sets - you've got a made up list' Quote
YellowCorvette Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Some of the sets sound interesting for me like the ARC-170 and Resistance Base, but I still need more details of the sets to fully judge. Still disappointed that there's still no TFA Luke Skywalker and Snoke minifigure. Edited December 6, 2015 by ArmstrongYong Quote
Gremer Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 If this is true, then dang it, I just ordered 8088 last month for $5 more than MSRP! . Quote

Mahtion Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 This seems fake because the resistance base at 700 pieces couldn't possibly fit poes xwing. Sorry and 13 minifigs in a set less than $200 doesn't make sense either. Also Yodas hut is a huge wish list item already making this harder to be credible. It's true some of these weird decisions sound like what Lego would do but the minifig count in comparison to piece count makes it sound incredible. I am highly skeptical to say the least. Quote
namioik Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 That 19 count mini figure set is probably what Just2good meant by a new Death Star ... Quote
Tariq j Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Some of these sets actually seem plausible, yet on the other hand there seem to be a a lot of "two good to be true sets" on here. I'm also surprised there is absolutely no mention of any Rogue One sets considering the movie will come out in winter next year. I'd say at least 25% seem believable and the remaining 75% seem unbelievable. June/Summer 2016 SW List: These have been leaked by a website called "Imgur" and there are confidential images (Link won`t work the now so you`ll have to search them). Confidential images are usually very blurred and have a stamped "confidential" mark on the front yet you seem to have identified everything very clearly, also, prices aren't shown on boxes... Edited December 6, 2015 by Tariq j Quote
Mahtion Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Also a Resistance base without Pz-4co?! That seems behind silly to imagine the missed opportunity and it's just filled with so many soldiers like the other sets that it makes battlepacks redundant. Quote
EdWebhead Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 This can't be real. Some of the sets sound like wishes rather than fact. Also, don't want to sound rude, but it seems like you joined EB just to post that list, which points towards a fake list to me. Quote
Darth Kylo Ren Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Some of these sets actually seem plausible, yet on the other hand there seem to be a a lot of "two good to be true sets" on here. I'm also surprised there is absolutely no mention of any Rogue One sets considering the movie will come out in winter next year.

ArrowBricks Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 It's most likely fake. If true, the sets sounds really good which also reinforces the fact it's fake! Like some of these sets would be some of the best in my opinion. Look forward to seeing the actual list to be honest, hopefully it's good. Quote
bountybossk Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Hahahaha! This list... What a joke! Kylo, Finn and Rey in a $30 set with Battle on Takodana just on the shelves? $70 Resistance Base set with 9(!) minifigs? $50 Starkiller Base set with 7(!) minifigs? A podracer set with more minifigs than the UCS Sandcrawler? I don't think so... Quote
Tariq j Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) There is going to be a Force Friday for that, the movie is released in December 2016. True, but even then the TFA sets were listed as "wolf" sets alongside the regular sets like the Imperial Shuttle, Final Duel etc. In any case I think the majority of the list is fake. Edited December 6, 2015 by Tariq j Quote
Rookie875 Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 I'm confused, are these summer sets or just a set wish list? Quote
legosamsonite Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 I'm confused, are these summer sets or just a set wish list? i think it's more of a scam list :( Quote
