LEGO Star Wars 2017 Pictures and Rumors

[Stash2Sixx]

My sources are good.  My sources have been good for the last 8+ years.  Only issue is when LEGO changes release dates because they can do whatever they want.

Now, stop hoping for a specific figure for May the Fourth!  Your guesses and hopes do not constitute rumors.

Remember, you can put hope in one hand and crap in the other...guess which one will fill up first?

Please, don't answer that question.

Please, stay on topic.  Bricklink, set price arguments, and wishlists are not for this thread.  Thanks.

Hmm… seems likely, only thing is that the snowspeeder has no astromech socket.

I'm well aware of that, hence why its its own polybag instead of included in the box. IMO, it is meant to be in scale with the UCS snow speeder and is the same sort of free polybag that is sometimes released alongside a D2C set, like Mr. Freeze with the '66 Batcave.

I guess all those rousing speeches about hope in Rogue One did nothing for you eh?  I'm just kidding, I know you have a job to do. 

I'm thinking about ordering a Rogue One set tonight before 2x the points end. Which do you guys think I'd get a better bang for my buck. The Y-wing or the Battle on Scarif one? I already have Jyn and Cassion so minifigs aren't really the priority.

Wait a minute, why is UCS BB-8 confirmed all of a sudden? Where's the source?

Because the moderator's anonymous reliable source confirmed it.

Oh my apologies. I'm not used the way things work in the Star Wars thread. I wish the Licensed threads would have things separated like this... Thanks though!

I'll let it slide this time.  We're human, we make mistakes.  You're good.

As for which set to get, get the one that is in stock!  SAH doesn't award VIP points until the item has shipped.  So if the item you want is backordered and you order it...if it ships after the 2X VIP points promo is over, you won't be awarded your 2X VIP points.

Lol thanks. And I literally had no idea that was a thing.... But you just reminded me to tell you guys that LEGO Stores will now be carrying Store exclusives! Brickfan reported on it this week and I didn't see anyone post it. So that's exciting that they'll start carrying the A-wing in store and not only online now! 

[Stash2Sixx]

A Wing is a TRU exclusive...and I totally forget the others.  For some reason they decided that exclusive store items would make sense at other stores.  Back in the day when I was still an employee, you could ALWAYS get the store exclusives at The LEGO Brand Retail Store, which was a huge draw to go into the stores.

Being that these are 2017 sets, if anyone can remember the others, I'll update the first page.  There is no way I'm digging through the mess that's been created in here!

[Ashnflash]

Luke's Landspeeder is also a Walmart exclusive.

Desert Skiff is a Target exclusive.

[Stash2Sixx]

Thanks guys.  Luke's Landspeeder was the Wal-Mart exclusive years ago too.  I'll get these updated in the first post for U.S. members.

My sources are good. 

Your sources say this:

75189 - 2 Stormtroopers? Rey?, ?, Luke?

75188 - Poe?, Pilot, Officer?

75179 - Kylo Ren, ?, ?, maybe 1 more?

75176 - BB8, Finn, ?

75177 - 2 ?, ?, ?

Now, who remembers this post from last month?

People were slamming this member because that list was fake....but is it?

Stash's source says set 75176 has Finn and BB8. The 'fake' list has 75176-Finn's Escape. (makes perfect sense)

75188: Stash's source says Poe, pilot, officer are in it; the list calls this set 'Resistance Fighter' (this one makes sense as well!)

On the other hand; some sets seem to be mixed up:

75179 (with Kylo Ren) is likely to be his personal TIE, which the 'fake' list lists as 75187

75189 (with Luke and Rey) must be the Ach-To set, which is 75190 according to the list (75189 is a Stardestroyer on that one)

I trust Stash's source but what I'm trying to say is that the 'fake' list maybe isn't as 'fake' as many were saying?

 

[VaderFan2187]

@Jedi-Bendu, @ChristopherLee made up the list to test @ForceGhostSolo's reliability. It's probably coincidence.

That list wasn't ChristopherLee's creation.....it's the same list ForceGhostSolo sent me by PM.

Also, a well respected Bothan who wants to remain anonymous told me there definately will be a TIE, speeder and Stardestroyer.....just like FGS claimed with his 'fake' list.

First time I see those figs added to FGS's list. I only saw the list with numbers and titles. Did FGS add these figs or did you do that?

 

According to FGS 75188 is a Resistance Fighter....and according to Stash's source 75188 includes Poe.....and 75176 (which FGS claims is called Finn's escape) includes Finn according to Stash's source.

2 lucky guesses from FGS?

Aside from that, there will be a SD, speeder and TIE in this wave as a respected bothan has confirmed this. Also lucky guesses from FGS?

I'm not saying FGS was 100% right....but it's odd/weird/funny that his 'fake' list isn't completely fake.

Well new TIE was rumored to be Kylo Ren's TIE Advanced, and it was heavily implied by certain Bothan spy...

And without proof, it's all rumors, so no one has any basis right now to yell and be pissed off at anyone...yet.

Everyone relax.  If he's full of shit, you guys are going to tell me as soon as the info comes out.  If my info is wrong, then that means that TLG changed their minds and changed some stuff up.

[karmajay]

I would absolutely buy a UCS BB-8!

[TheBrickHitHouse]

Does a UCS BB8 mean the Falcon rumours are quashed? 

I realky dont don't need a UCS BB8...

No not necessarily because it was implied by some members in this thread that we would get three UCS this year ;)

[Stash2Sixx]

As far as I know, it is not labeled as a UCS.

And it's UCS people, Ultimate Collector's Series...not USC.  USC is University of Southern California.  Sorry, this one drives me nuts.

Who said USC ? 

[Stash2Sixx]

If you want to go back and look, it's been said quite a few times in the thread.  Not in the last 3 days, but it's in there.  Just figured I would point that out.
