But, this is a Star Wars set discussion topic, and sets can also be discussed from an exploitable part-by-part bias rather than just as a static whole. I mean, given previous examples of such, there is legitimate reason to expect such parts from the Star Wars theme, right? Umm, no. This is not the place for wish-listing. Wish-listing is not set discussion. Stay on target. Quote

They've gotta make a heck of a minifigure for the deluxe edition, maybe even a pearl gold vader or dare I say rebel friend, and I can't wait to relive my childhood of LSW:TCS. Based on the fallen order gameplay (Which I love by the way) I don't think it's unreasonable to assume we'll get some set or battle pack eventually. Neither the flame nor purge troopers require new molds, and I could see a battlepack with trooper variants and another set with Kal and second sister. That said, the likelyhood of them coming out for force friday continues to lower as we now know all but one of the sets are episode IX. Or a buildable yoda. The Mandalorian is getting a battle pack in the winter wave of 2020 so I see no reason that Fallen Order can't get that 1 slot during force friday this year. The game looks great and i would love to get anything from it in Lego form. If they made Rebel Friend as the pre-order or deluxe edition exclusive I would jump on it right away! This would be the perfect way to release him and the perfect time since its the 20th anniversary and they just made a new rebel fleet trooper print. Quote

I don't have your insider knowledge, but this seems like it makes sense to me. January 2020 isn't more than a month or 2 past the game's release date, so it's not as strange as battlefront 2, which had over a year. Quote

Artoo has had his 3rd leg in all the lego games, so I'm not sure how much him still having it changes wether or not he gets his third leg. I could see lego inclusing those pieces in a set with him as an extra option, but I don't think it's a confirmation by any means. 2 hours ago, Tidy said: 'Ferry' Microfighter 'Oslo Tram' Microfighter Bantha and Skyhopper Microfighter 'Bruges' Battlepack 'Huckleberry' Battlepack 4+ Snowspeeder Obi vs Anakin Kenobi Homestead Landspeeder if this is the list that you're referring to, then it's not debunked or 100% fake ... ;-] Ah. Well, i guess it'll be fun to get obi-wan, luke, c-3po and artoo in a small set....again... if this list turns out to be true. Quote

I noticed that although BB-8 doesn't have the bottom stud either. Besides that he's still the same as his physical release so I assume the same applies for D-O. 6 hours ago, Tidy said: 'Ferry' Microfighter 'Oslo Tram' Microfighter Bantha and Skyhopper Microfighter 'Bruges' Battlepack 'Huckleberry' Battlepack 4+ Snowspeeder Obi vs Anakin Kenobi Homestead Landspeeder if this is the list that you're referring to, then it's not debunked or 100% fake ... ;-] Kenobi Homestead and Landspeeder have my attention. Either of them would be the perfect set to include that molded Bantha shown in the recently revealed Lego video game. Quote

Either of them would be the perfect set to include that molded Bantha shown in the recently revealed Lego video game. I agree, I think D-O's game design might be the basic design of his TROS figure. If it does, maybe that bantha and artoo's third leg will appear in the january 2020 sets. I like that bantha mold. Although I don't think the landspeeder is luke's, we had one about 2 years ago and the kenobi homestead means that there would be 2 sets with roughly the same minifigures at roughly the same price in the same wave. Just now, Digger of Bricks said: Alright, sorry about that. May I ask though, is there a separate topic for just speculation on 2019 Star Wars sets? Wishlisting is on the "future star wars sets" thread, but I expect that applies to people wanting to see star wars vehicles and locations turned into official sets, not classic space elements in said sets. You've expressed your hopes of getting the falcon canopy in trans-yellow, and I sincerely hope that piece comes in some set someday, but you might need to move on. Quote

I don't think repeat minifigures would be an issue if the Landspeeder is Luke's. The core cast (Luke, Obi-Wan, R2-D2 and C-3PO) could just be split up across the two sets with Tuskens/Jawas/Sandtroopers etc being used to fill in as additional minifigures. Quote
ARIEL-1970 Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 Considering Major Vonreg is all red I would guess that he'll be in the 2019 Advent calender. I would be surprised if he isn't Quote

Luke needs to be in both sets, as it's his speeder and the only possible action feature for the kenobi homestead I can think of is him igniting his lightsaber, as that's literally all that happened there. (unless the set is based on the Luke/Boba fight in the canon comics, which is highly unlikely but would be really cool.) With that, one set would have to be luke's speeder, 2 years after we last got it, containing luke, either 3-po or r2-d2, and a tusken raider. This leaves the second set to be luke, kenobi, the other droid, and maybe a tusken raider as well. I can't see this happening, which along with the aforementioned fact that we got the speeder just 2 years ago leads me to believe it's a different speeder, possibly based on something in the mandalorian, fallen order, or TROS. 8 hours ago, ARIEL-1970 said: Considering Major Vonreg is all red I would guess that he'll be in the 2019 Advent calender.

I only count 5 minifigures, unless we're calling santa porg and the present GNK minifigures. Also with santa porg, he appears to have different coloration and isn't just bb-8 in a santa hat or entirely nonexistant like last year. Slow improvements, maybe we'll eventually get a santa figure again. Edited June 11, 2019 by Mandalorianknight Quote
Tidy Posted June 11, 2019 Posted June 11, 2019 white porg, red wings, santa hat ... hello santa porg ... yeah, the porg and gonk are considered minis ... Quote

I mean, at least it's not just plopping a hat on like bb-8 and I'm not happy that those count as minis, last year we got a battle-droid, Ig-88, and 5 minis, and of course the droids arent minifigures either but at least they're humanoid. These are literally just normal parts, one of which has a santa hat. And is no one talking about the cloud car driver brutally assaulting present gonk with a snowball? #Stop gonk droid abuse Edited June 12, 2019 by Mandalorianknight Quote
Tidy Posted June 12, 2019 Posted June 12, 2019 they may just be pieces, but c'mon, who ever thought before to make a gonk that looked like a present before ?!?? that's just brilliant ... i will admit that the decline in number of figures over the years is disappointing to me as an afol, but my kids prefer the mini builds to the figs [good for me!] ... an afol minifig only advent calendar that could double as a cmf, oh man, that would rock ... i am looking forward to old man but not much else unfortunately ...

ARIEL-1970 Posted June 12, 2019 Posted June 12, 2019 I must have missed the info on the leaked advent calendar figs. That is too bad, he would have been a perfect fit for Christmas being all red like that ;) Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted June 12, 2019 Posted June 12, 2019 It‘s interesting how the catalogues differ between countries... Some versions of the latest one one advertise Triple Force Friday with a tiny announcement on one of the pages while others dedicate a whole page to it Of course it‘s the same amount of information in both cases, but the latter is at least more interesting to look at. The motive is a LEGO-fied version of the new TROS merch boxart with Kylo (though the render lacks the red cracks for some reason). Quote

His costume in The Rise of Skywalker should be the same one as The Last Jedi with the scale pattern on the torso. Quote
