I missed out on the last one and I've been kicking myself ever since. I am pleasantly surpised to see that the Tracker 1 is actually a TIE Phantom! The Arrowhead is actually really great too, too bad the minifig selection isn't so great. The bounty hunter pack is still great and I love the riot shield piece in the fo battlepack. The Rathtar set is pretty sweet, as is the Quadjumper even though the minifig selection for it is pretty lackluster. The Tracker I is a TIE Phantom? Where did you see that information! Quote

Ceroknight Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Glad we're getting two FO Troopers! Other sets look alright Quote
Mesabi Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 A couple of the sets in this wave really surprised me. The Quadjumper appears for like five seconds in TFA, and the Rathtar Escape seems like a really weird idea for a set. I'm also surprised we haven't seen anything about the Yoda's Hut set yet as well. I'm not unhappy about the sets in this wave, though, everything looks really nice. Quote

Too long I guess, It still says Yoda's hut on page 1. Have we seen it yet though? I don't recall seeing any pictures of it Quote

Rad Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Quadjumper, bounty hunter pack (gives me another Bossk and Dengar), First Order battlepack for now. Possibly Vader transformation and Rathtar escape. Quote
StarWars8Spoiler Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 So I just noticed the clever reference in the Tracker I set. The droid's name is M0-C. That has to be a play on MOC. Quote

There are similarities and the Tracker I is clearly based off of the TIE Phantom, but it sounded like there was official confirmation that the Tracker I was indeed a TIE Phantom. Quote

PenPlays Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but has anyone noticed that the Tracker I uses the Nexo Knights Combo shield to get it's shape? I found that rather clever. Quote
benderisgreat Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Kinda disappointed Ep 8 rumors were fake, but they were too good to be true. Well at least Kylo's TIE Advanced rumor is real, that's something. Quote

Well sets can be great even if Movie is garbage. Take a look at Lone Ranger line: sets were really good, but movie bad. And it's highly unlikely Ep 8 will be a bad movie, just saying. Quote

Didn't mean to cause confusion, but I mean it's extremely close to a TIE Phantom just as Jek-14's Starfighter was heavily inspired by the E-Wing Starfighter, which is pretty great imho. It's always really coo to get obscure Star Wars ships in LEGO, those tend to be my favorite sets. Quote

firefox Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 So far i like most SW stuff i've seen, Only dissapointment is the way too small clone wars republic tank, why???? Quote
Lahh001 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Based on previous years experience is there likely to be more reveals over the remainder of the show? For example snowspeeder? Quote

But what we saw at Toy Fair is all we're getting for the regular-release summer sets. Quote

I didnt realize it was called Rogue Friday last year though...thats bizarre. You're not alone, I was also a little confused when they named it that, even though I had heard people call it "Rogue Friday" I still assumed it was a "Force Friday". I'm guessing they're named differently for the anthology films? Quote
