zz-80 Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 I don't even know how this droid gunship looks, but I also wanted that Tie Defender! :-( The agent line maight be interesting, a 007 rip-off? Why not!? ;-) I imagine little backpacks with hidden weapons, guns with silencers and some nasty bad guys. :-D Quote
xwingyoda Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 I don't even know how this droid gunship looks, but I also wanted that Tie Defender! :-( It looks like a giant can opener if you ask me The agent line maight be interesting, a 007 rip-off? Why not!? ;-) I imagine little backpacks with hidden weapons, guns with silencers and some nasty bad guys. :-D That can be swet (new weapons maybe ??) IF the vehicles are not oversized for playability and full of catapults and other crappy shooting devices (cough cough !!) *yoda* Quote
captaintau Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 I was really looking forward to that TIE Defender. The Droid Gunship just doesn't do anything for me. Besides, we've had enough big SW sets recently. Agents... interesting. I probably won't bother but I'll be interested in what they do. Quote
Lord Of Pies Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Lets start a protest group asap I say :-D *yoda* Yeah! All together now: "Tie defender, Tie defender, Tie defender!" ;-) Quote
xwingyoda Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Yeah! All together now: "Tie defender, Tie defender, Tie defender!" ;-) X-D Nan lets do it the French way :-P *yoda* Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 OK, I am with XWY and CaptainTau on the gunship thing. Sure, it could hold lots of battle droids, but hell, Lego, isn't the MTT enough? >:-( Rant over, small as it was. Why does kiddiwinks state the TX-130, the Droid Gunship Tie Defender, and the Republic Gunship as PROMO? I see the Twilight and the Homing Spider droid are TRU, but what's promo? :-/ Note the names of the batman sets: Batman 1 through 3, then Batman 5! A mistyping, or a clue! Quote
zz-80 Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Uah that gunship looks strange. Like a discus with a head. :-D Or is it possible that we get s.th. battlepack like? Remember the discussion about the Imperial Dropship. Everyone thought that it would be that ship from the Star Wars games and ended up beeing a battlepack with parts. But another droid bp? naah don't know. Let's pray for that Tie Defender! *y* Quote
Brainbox Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Agents. Well, it could be interesting. So, I'm guessing it'll either be a Bond-type thing, or an Alpha Team-type thing. Either way, it could be good. But I can't really say without pictures. 'Jetpack Pursuit' sounds interesting though. New Impulse sets. Only four this time, unfortunately. Still, the Coast Guard is a little different (i.e. not police), and the troll set should be great. It's a pity there isn't a dwarves set though. 'Batman 4' missing certainly adds crecibility to Batbrick's 'mystery extra set' prediction. 'Hypersonic Operations Aircraft.' Well, I'm sorry, but the word 'hypersonic' has done it for me. :-D Homing Spider Droid, eh? Nice. And as for 'Twilight' I'm wondering whether it's either this or perhaps something based on this. And I'm actually quite a fan of the Droid Gunship. Quote
iamded Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Note the prices on Kiddiwinks are in South African Rands, and this site can convert the currency if you're wondering what price it is in your currency. ~Peace Quote
Darth_Legois Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Yeah me too!! I really wanted a TIE Defender Lego set. *sing* And why did they have to replace it with a crappy droid gunship!? Well think of it this way you just saved money for a better set!! 8- Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Lego Agents:8630 - Mission 3: Gold Hunt (INDEP) 8631 - Mission 1: Jetpack Pursuit 8632 - Mission 2: Swamp Hunt 8633 - Mission 4: Speedboat Rescue 8634 - Mission 5: Turbo Car Chase 8635 - Mission 6: Mobile Command Centre 8636 - Agents (INDEP) 8637 - Agents MDP (PROMO) If you ask me: Judging from that what the set names declare these sets seem to be very action based. Because of this I think this theme will be something like the AlphaTeam theme TLG released some years ago. In any case it surely won't be a City subthme because -there are "enough" City sets for 2008 which were already mentioned -e. g. a"gold hunt" would surely not take part in a city -TLG would compete with itself when releasing a new police theme and an agents theme as City subteme in the same year -the police subtheme and the agents subtheme are too similar So maybe it might even be an adventures theme - but I think that it'll be some kind of new AlphaTeam theme. I'm very curious about how the Coast Guard sets will look like. I think that - judging from the Rescue Helicopter we've already seen - they will be great sets. I only hope that the cars and trucks won't get too big and will include doors! Quote
iamded Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 I only hope that the cars and trucks won't get too big and will include doors! I think we all do! And I get the feeling the people in the Agents line will have tuxedos, for some reason... X-D ~Peace Quote
The Kid Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 It doesn't surprise me that the DG has replaced the TIE. After all, it is a Clone Wars line (the clue's in the title ;-)). TK Quote
captaintau Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 Yes, but we all want a TIE Defender! >:-( Quote
captaintau Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 This is getting confusing. Can I suggest we cease discussing Star Wars here in light of the existance of this thread? Quote
Piranha Posted December 30, 2007 Posted December 30, 2007 *sighs* The TIE defender was one of the few TIE ships I wanted *sad* Its a really sweet ship and was in Battlefront, shame, hopefully we'll still get it(Crazier things have happened :-D ) The rest is all good news though!! Impulse sounds great!! The "agent" line sounds like 007 mixed with Alpha Team :-D Maybe it will turn out good? P Quote
LordGalewind Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *sing* *sing* *sing* *sing* *sing* I want pictures of BIONICLE and TECHNIC..........i cant wait any longer to find out what those titans are and to see the 8297 Off Roader......

pjibid Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) In my opinion i like the gunship play with it on battlefront 2 its got some cool bubbles at the bottom. :-D I dont know why everybody hates it >:-( Edited January 1, 2008 by pjibid Quote
whung Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Some mini sets are found in replacement parts in LEGO.com CS I think these sets are probably promotional sets in 2008.

Also a new creator house is always welcome *y* That sounds really interesting !! *yoda* Quote
Derek Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Thanks! Do people just sit there and go through all the numbers? :-D Quote

Wout Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 another creator house? That would be nice :-) Although I still must buy the tan house with black roof Quote
xwingyoda Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Many tks julencin2000 for these pics ;-) That mini snowie has fantastic parts I think ;-) Can't wait for pics of these babies !!
