1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Too bad. I recently managed to secure a Lando with a great cape, and I've been looking forward to an update ever since. Hope Lego is listening! Quote
VaderFan2187 Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Whoever was the prankster who did that must have gotten a good laugh. All those super-excited comments on @Delta Customs's instagram must have been funny for him to read. Oh well, guess we're stuck with a Snowspeeder and Falcon re-release. Quote
Flandy Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 I don't condone faking at all, but you guys all make it SOOOOOOOO easy! If you want a Lando and a Cloud city set, petition Lego, don't just complain about it on here. You think anyone from Lego is reading through this forum looking for set ideas? They only care when leaked pictures are posted. Quote

They only care when leaked pictures are posted. I once asked them to do a Creator Expert Lambourghini Countach, and they told me to submit one through Lego Ideas if I really wanted one. I don't think they pay much attention to individual requests, unless those requests are backed up by 10,000 votes. So people need to vote for, or create, a UCS Cloud City Ideas set if they want it to happen... Edited January 31, 2017 by David Thomsen Quote

North Korea But legoideas have never created something already on a theme, additionally they never great bigger sets either, however the question is whether it will still be fruitful to submit something there to show to lego that it will sell well... I have still not seen any signs of a jedi council (which was the latest playset to receive 10 000 votes on IDEAS) Quote
J.V.D. Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Does anybody have an idea which of the figs is shown on the side of the box on that leaked bounty hunter bp image? It seems to be different from the 4 shown on the front of the box.. I first thought it was Bossk, but the head looks rather brown then green.. Quote

Hoth Rebel Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Zusammengebaut (http://zusammengebaut.com/live-ticker-lego-news-toy-fair-2017-19791/) and PROMOBRICKS (https://www.instagram.com/promobricks/) are currently posting pictures of the 2017 summer sets. I think the SW pics will follow later today. Quote

Is this the same in other EU countries? Hi, I haven't seen Luke's Landspeeder around here, but did buy the Desert Skiff Escape 2 days ago in Budapest. It came with R3-M2 (40286 polybag) as a gift, which you get when you purchase Star Wars sets for 9999 HUF or more (about 32€). Quote
Criss Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 You can buy all the new sets like Landspeeder, Desert Skiff, Battle on Scarif, Battle on Naboo, Phantom, YJS and the figures etc. here at TRU Germany! Quote

RetroInferno Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Confirmed set numbers for episode VIII. 75187 - 75188 - 75189 - 75190 75176 - 75177 ( 75178 is very stangely the Quad Jumper from TFA, stange it's shoved in the middle of this ) and 75179. This doesn't seem to include constraction figures. Source: Price Vortex from Hothbricks. From the looks of it it seems Lego doesn't want to show any Star Wars sets from the Nuremberg toys fair, or ninjago for that matter. Their best seller themes are not even showcased. Quote

StarWars8Spoiler Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) I don't want to come off as a jerk here, but can we PLEASE stop asking about when the winter wave is released? I see it asked every page, almost literally. It's getting old and annoying. Edited January 31, 2017 by ChristopherLee Quote

There's maybe 4 full pages of people asking the same question. Quote
