Sets seem a bit hit and miss really. Dislike the Clone Wars figures but the sets seem cool. The tank looks good for parts if nothing else (I prefer my custom one :D). I actually like the look of Anakin's ship from the Clone Wars movie, I think i am in the minority

Regardless of your opinion on the

box with wings

Twilight( ) it's great to have you back and crackin'!

Once again I really don't understand why a minifig that's worth about 50 cents is the deciding factor of a $30 purchase. Sure, it'd be nice to have a few minifigs, but not $30 nice. I'm getting them regardless of the minifig count- it's the set that's important.

Ever checked Bricklink prices for some Star Wars figs?

Hmmm - are you new - did it sound like a guess?

Preliminary pics, and a picture in a catalogue - well here you are - will that make you a believer?

No I'm not new. But I was off the board for some time so I don't know you that good as of yet, no offense intended. And yes, this pic makes me a believer

Aren't Battle Droid Pilots supposed to have a blue torso?

Wow Thanks for the pic. I'm not really into droids much but that ship looks good in that pic. I wonder if that pilot fits inside?

Also I think others have mentioned it are you able to get pics of the other sets too. Thanks. Can't wait to see more.

Yay just got the catalog all these sets look great.

Way to go, Captain Obvious... >_<

Lucky! Yeah, there's a bar gripped to what looks like a cockpit cover, so...

I don't appreciate your negative tone

Might wanna get used to that, people tend to take things rather personally on the internet.

He thinks its all right if he puts a ' ' after it.

Com'on guys don't flip

There's a lot of joking going on all over EB and nobody means it personal. TDF sure did not intend to offend any of you

I managed to get my hands on another pic - maybe this will answer a question or two:

I'm sure I saw Twilight within the crowds in the shop at Legoland Windsor yesterday... Maybe I was just imagining things!

:skull:

Wow more photos. You guys are sure good at finding them. Cant wait to see more.

Many thanks again Jesper! That pic certainly answers some questions on this set's features.

Gosh another new photos. Nice~ & thanks for sharing the photo with us

Is there anymore pictures?

Wow amazing like I said on page 14 (woo I found it first) that cockpit opens exactly where I said on the hinge.

EDIT: I was so happy about being right I forgot to write about the pics. On the bomb dropping mechanism there seems to be an elastic bad or are they just 2 blue lines showing some function? I think the wheel bit on the bottom spins round to drop them somehow. Also where that technic cog piece is on the top underneath that there is a gris / mesh piece like on the floor of the RGS. This is my favourite LEGO Clone Wars set still. I can't wait till new pictures show up of the other sets though

Thanks for the pic Jesper. This pic of the DGS just make me it more then before. Its for sure one of the best clone wars sets this year.

I am new here! Seems like a fun website! I am crying in happiness because of the new Star Wars Clone Wars sets! Can't wait!

The bombs hang off the technic axle on the outside of the 2x2 plate with holes. Turn the gear on top, the axles move 'inward' and since the bombs can't move, they fall off the end of the axle. Elastic band is no doubt there to stop the wheel turning inadvertently. Well that's my theory anyway.

Wow I love this pic! We will have a small cockpit and a mechanism to drop missiles! It's cool! It can bombard the clone troops on the ground.

That does look correct.

I might get two of the DGS's now.... and Jesper can you get your hands on a back-of-box pic of the TX-130 saber class tank?

also where do the other 2 droids go? like in that picture...

sounds simple!

I like it, but there's no other word for it than stubby.

exactly what I thought!

.... and Jesper can you get your hands on a back-of-box pic of the TX-130 saber class tank?

Nope - not yet anyway - remember it's an October-set. I'll post as soon as it's possible.

also where do the other 2 droids go? like in that picture...

Not sure I understand - please explain.
