They’re there, I saw them a few seconds ago.

Try on The Brothers Brick ;)

If that Moff Gideon TIE is real, I would really want it to come with Moff Gideon, Din Djarin in full beskar, Kuiil, and the Client. That would be the perfect lineup for me. I would love Paz Vizsla and the Armorer, but they just wouldn’t really belong in that set

So Elis Helrot is in it and hrchek kal fas.

I am pretty sure that is Hrcheck Kal Fas pasted twice in the image since there are two Devaronians, one near Hrcheck Kal Fas. It was probably taken from a photo of the speeder build that was planted in the blank space and the figures were not cropped out. It's a real shame as this thread has made me a big Elis Helrot fan just on the assumption that he may have got in, but the Saurin is cool.

Love the interior! Its spacious enough to accommodate plenty of figures and the alcoves look much less cramped compared to previous releases. Also a pretty creative use of the wheels for the bar tables.

[Thieda]

Wow the interior picture sold me on this set! I like all the drinks around the bar. Though the market building does seem very tacked on to the set to make it worth the price 

[lego_guyon02]

That honestly looks much better than I expected 

[Thieda]

Do the beams on the roof just lift off when you open it?

Hello everyone, sorry if I'm interrupting I don't mean to. But, has anybody heard any news about LEGO Star Wars Celebration The Bespin Duel 75294 set from Target? 

From what I've heard or read on Lego.com they have stopped and won't restock on their website. I haven't heard anything from Target yet. Just wondering, if anybody has heard about any more restocks for this VERY exclusive set.

Thanks, everyone. I highly appreciate it.

Follow up question - is the Bespin Duel available on Target.com.  I know it’s a RedCard exclusive, I’m waiting for the card I signed up for to arrive and hoping it gets here before the sets sell out on Target (as they have on LEGO.com).

Also, question about the Cantina.  The date is rumored to be 9/16.  Is that the earliest I’ll be able to order it online, or will it be available to order earlier so that it can arrive on the 16th.  Amazon allowed me to order the Razorcrest so it arrived on the releas date, but I. Know they operate differently than LEGO.

thanks in advance 

 

Bespin Duel is a Lego.com and Target Red Card exclusive. It's been sold out the past few days. But some have said it's popped back up on Lego.com for short periods of time. Best bet to get a copy is check both sites a few times each day. Or buy it off eBay or Bricklink if you can't wait and are willing to pay twice as much.

I work in payments, I have PP contacts and when this happened to me a while back I fixed it. It was quite a simple error that wasn’t difficult to address and completely unnecessary. No one should have to do this again going forward. A real pain for anyone to have to call in and auth again. Especially if you have an AMEX as LEGO don’t accept and PP do. My razor crests arrived the other day without issue having pre auth’d with PP a very long time ago.

I have used an Amex in Lego S@H for almost every one of my purchases there. I’m in the US, so maybe other markets are different?
 

With all the weird quirks people run into using PayPal, I have never understood what advantage there is.

Not entirely sure what tot think of the interior. The pictures aren't the best of quality yet.
But from what I can see, it kinda looks like a much larger, more detailed version of 75052 (2014's Mos Eisley Cantina), which obviously makes sense, but I'm not sure I really 'need' an upgrade of that one.
I am very curious about the other building, however. Is that some kind of market stall or vendor or something? 
Will wait for HD pictures to make a better judgement. Those minifigures though 

Regards,
Mitch

That's exactly what I was thinking.

It doesn't really feel like anything new IMO. Just an upgraded version of something we've seen before. We never had an Ewok Village or a shape-appropriate Death Star and Cloud City before, which is why I think those three playsets were more impressive. Sure, this Cantina is bigger and can be nearly fully enclosed, but it really does just look like a combination of two or three 75052s.

The minifigures are awesome and the side builds are well-detailed, but for what I assume will be in the 400 - 450CAD range, this one will go in the "low priority" pile.

You know, unless the HD pics are a miracle, which considering how many beautiful D2Cs have come out (and are yet to come) this year, I hope they're not. 

[dvogon]

The interior is great, on par with the exterior. I hoped the Saurin would be a new mold, although it seems that it isn't going to be the case based on that blurred picture.

[TakeaBrick]

The MOS Eisley might be a good set on its own. But, once it is compared with Diagon Alley...the MOS Eisley got beaten in terms of nearly every apsect ( price, piece count, the look and etc.)  I am definitely skipping this one. Just not good enough.

Oh you’re right :-( 

But....we can make a sort of Elis Helrot with the minifighead from the ghost of the haunted house 10273. 

[ChiefPie]

I want to say I’m disappointed by the interior but I don’t think I really expected anything different from the old cantina. I do like the bar though.

[Kit Figsto]

The bar looks really good, the booths, like people are saying, seem to just be more detailed/fleshed out versions of the 2014 version.  I would like to see better pictures of the band stage and the corner booth, as well as the entrance area, since they're all not fully shown.  One of my biggest "fears" was that the inside would look way too empty in terms of figure population, but it looks like it actually isn't horrible.  Not as packed as in the movie, obviously, but not bad by any means.

[Kdapt-Preacher]

They're weird interior pics, though, aren't they? The way it's set up looks like the official promo shots that they always have, but then it's got those duplicated figures. Did somebody composite that image out of multiple leaks, pulling the speeder and the figures next to it in from somewhere else?

Yes.

[RODDY]

Seeing the interior, I’m really not feeling too hot about the price of this set, it seems a bit small for $350. The 2014 set was $60, and this is like x3 of that set. Add inflation make it $70 and you’re up to $210. Even including the outpost and the speeder, you’re looking at $270ish and add that lucrative Disney tax and you’re up to $300. But $350 is imo pushing it, will I still pick it up yeah gotta get my hands on Garindan but I’m not gonna lie this one is gonna sting a bit. I wish they would of charged $250 and left out the outpost.

The interior looks great. We've got the full bar and all the booths. Don't think we could've really asked for any more.
