Did you ever see any information regarding minifigs supposedly included in 75179? I never heard anything. 23 hours ago, VaderFan2187 said: It's the 40th anniversary of ANH, not ESB! And that, my friends, is why it still makes makes sense that LEGO could release a Yavin 4 Rebel Base/Hangar set this year for May the 4th, which would be pretty cool, IMO. Personally, I'm not hyped for that Snowspeeder too. Heck, we only got pictures from the Assault on Hoth set last year only a few weeks before it was set for sale. But following the same logic, the Millennium Falcon rumor does get more support, even though we already got one, and, honestly, I don't think we need one. Like @Deathstroke77 said, their are a lot of untapped possibilities for UCS sets that LEGO hasn't explored. Quote

John7edward Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 I'm hoping for a millennium falcon. Also an updated ISD is needed. The current falcon is thousands of dollars....who can afford that. Leto just needs to re realse it or update it and have it available. Quote

I think there are leaked images of all sets except the battle packs and the TFA sets, although none of those I've seen are clear enough to really distinguish anything about the minifies Quote

And no, we haven't seen Obi-wan's JSF yet. Quote
starwars4ever Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 Based on the number of sets we got last year, it is very likely that we won't be getting the Obi-Wan Starfighter set. I could be wrong, but they tend to produce the same amount of sets each year. Quote

Then why would we get two small sets (Vader's Transformation and Republic Fighter Tank) when last year we only got one (Eclipse Fighter)? Quote

Since the SW is almost the best seller of LEGO I think they can easily rise the amount of sets per year, just my opinion so don't burn me for it, thanks Quote
starwars4ever Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 One of them (Tank) will probably $50 (USD) due to Aayla Secura (and since the last one was also $50). This pattern hasn't changed for a while. But then again, I could be wrong. Quote

This pattern hasn't changed for a while. But then again, I could be wrong. But there are only three minifigures and this one seems smaller. Won't be surprised if the Tank and Vader set are the same price If the tank was $50 I'd vote with my wallet Edited January 17, 2017 by VaderFan2187 Quote
starwars4ever Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 The last Tank only had 2 figures, this one has 4 figures. Also, it's been 9 years since the last one was produced, so inflation must also be considered. Quote
RetroInferno Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 4 figs? Plain droids are worth considerably less than a mini-fig. Also the vehicle appears smaller than the previous itteration. Quote

benderisgreat Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 No way Tank is 50$! 30$ is most likely price, but I can see it being sold for 40$ if it's really good build. But hopefully both Tank and Vader Transformation are in 30-50$ range! Quote

However Vader's Transformation and Republic Fighter Tank seem to have the same box size which likely means they are the same price. Quote
THELEGOBATMAN Posted January 17, 2017 Posted January 17, 2017 Republic Fighter Tank is the same price as Vader Tarnsformation. Quote
