Balrogofmorgoth Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 The Leia hologram, the training remote, and the robeless variant of Old Ben make the Hut set a must buy. The Landspeeder really doesn’t have anything going for it except for the poncho for Luke, which I actually really like. That will probably end up being a set I pick up at a discount when I’ve run into a lego dry spell next year Quote
jdubbs Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) The tusken raider's torso print is also new. Edited August 3, 2019 by jdubbs Quote

wesker Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 The leg print is new as well. I'm glad they're introducing a new version. The Jawas have had four different costume variations for some time now yet the Tusken Raider only had the one. Its good to see they too are now getting some variety among them. Quote
Balrogofmorgoth Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 I really hope the rumored Conveyex microfighter comes with a Range Trooper. It would be nice to be able to have a cheap way to army build them Quote

And, LEGO does not generally use codenames for products based on already-released movies... typically only the upcoming movie gets them. Quote

Well you know a lot more about it than I do so I’ll take your word for it. My mistake, no Range Troopers then I guess. Bummer. So it’s most likely a TROS microfighter? The supposed AT Hauler as well? If so, that’s just as exciting I suppose. It probably means more troopers for Resistane and/or FO. I can get behind that. Quote
THELEGOBATMAN Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 Anakin's and Obi-Wan's heads leaked, with both facial expressions. Obi-Wan's is entirely new take on his head, looks really good, but the first expression looks off, like he's disgusted. Anakin's is great, kinda like the one from old Ani vs. Obi set. Also, a head of a pilot leaked, but it could be from TROS sets. Quote
wesker Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 The new heads look pretty cool. I like that they kept Anakin's design consistent with the Clone Wars face print that came out a year or so back. Obi-Wan's is a welcome improvement as the previous one was starting to feel dated with its lack of detail. Bit of a shame they're still using dark orange but aside from that it looks good overall. Looking forward to seeing the complete figures fully assembled. Quote

Tariq j Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 Both heads looks pretty good. The detail on Obi Wan’s beard improves the headpiece. Quote
Anak Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) The pilot head is exatly the same as the T-16 Skyhopper pilot from 2015. May be a new release of that craft, or just a reuse of the head? Edited August 16, 2019 by Anak Quote

THELEGOBATMAN Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 There's a new hairpiece leak - it's new Slave Leia's hair without golden printing. It could go with the Jabba's guard leaked face in a set, but I think it will be used for Padmé in the Mustafar set. Quote
wesker Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 While I would welcome another Slave Leia, I'm really hoping that hairpiece is for Padme. She rarely appears in sets enough as it is and a ROTS minifigure is LONG overdue. If she is included in the Mustafar Duel set its going to be a Day 1 purchase for sure. Quote
Balrogofmorgoth Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 I really hope that hair is for Mustafar Padmé, I’ve wanted that figure for a long time and we still haven’t gotten a Padmé from ROTS at all Quote
JekPorkchops Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 The lack of golden printing may indeed imply that it is for a ROTS Padme instead of for a ROTJ Leia. I guess I am so used to that old Obi-Wan face that I think the new one is a bit too scruffy-looking, but that is just because the beard has more detail. I like that this Obi-Wan looks a bit older than the other Obi-Wan head. You can really see the depression in his expression because of what Anakin did, and this head will work great for a post-ROTS Obi-Wan. Quote

BrickBob Studpants Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 I still find it weird that we‘re seeing leaks of two separate waves at the same time This also entails that some of the TROS figs we‘ve already seen (and/or some that have yet to be leaked) might actually belong to the Jan 2020 wave Quote

Balrogofmorgoth Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 Just now, jdubbs said: Or that the January wave... might not be January. That’s what I was thinking. Although I suppose it’s not impossible for the fall and winter waves to leak around the same time Quote
