KimT Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 Woah Woah Woah Woah, I'm a little confused here and have a question here that everyone im sure thinks is stupid (sorry i took a small vacation and am catching up on old posts) In 2011 the star wars license runs out, which means no more Lego Star Wars sets?!?!?! I'm no Lawyer but can't they get that renewed? Or did they decide not to? They've already renewed it once and they've also said that they wont be doing that again. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Personally I think that they'll renew it, if the price is right and if Star Wars continues to sell well. And NO I don't think you're stupid - just a little dullminded

TheBrickHitHouse Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Lego will renew the licence - they are playing hard to get to get a better renewal price ''oh we cant afford to renew....unles......''
KimT Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 Lego will renew the licence - they are playing hard to get to get a better renewal price''oh we cant afford to renew....unles......'' What a meaningful addition to this topic. Thanks for sharing those rumours, which for obvious reasons, are very important to the topic on late 2008 and 2009 sets. Did you stop and think for a minute, before you posted that? Let's stay on topic here
Light Light Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 I can't imagine TLG putting an end to Star Wars sets. Like, 99.9% of their sales come from Star Wars. Lego Star Wars is great enough that people would actually kill for sets Thinks of Midnight Madness...
Justin2224 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) Light Light,not to do his job, but KimT said that does not pertain to the 'Late 2008 and 2009 picture and rumor thread. Anyway, Ashoka, have you found out any more info on these sets or learned of new ones? How bout pics? Edited August 18, 2008 by Justin2224
darkrebellion Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Check the new rumor list posted in "Jedi News": Even better list and with this one in the "Rebelscum" forums are posted another rumors that seems to be the summer 2009 list so here I copy and paste it: List Removed .
Justin2224 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) I love you darkrebellion!!! OK, anywho, thanks for the lists, I can't wait, ecspesially for the pre-lim pictures. Even those Indy sets sound great. 09 will be a good year indeed, and hoefully not to expensive. (Goes of to room and cries in happyness) Edit: Do you think the Red Battle Droids with the 'Hyena Droid Bomber' could be Geonosian Droids? If so why exactly, and I don't fully understand the Assassin Droid pack either. Maybe from the original Clone Wars and the speeder be the Lancer Bike? Edited August 18, 2008 by Justin2224
KimT Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 Thanks for that darkrebellion. Now I'll go to bed and dream of sets to come. I've added the new info to the first post. I guess I'll have to clean it up sooner or later. Stay on target!
Rune Haako Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) Check the new rumor list posted in "Jedi News":Even better list and with this one in the "Rebelscum" forums are posted another rumors that seems to be the summer 2009 list so here I copy and paste it: List Removed . Add these to the last list. List Removed Edited August 19, 2008 by KimT
Justin2224 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Hey Rune Haako, where did you get that awesome info from? Looks like our long awaited Taun Tauns are on their way. This list is bringing me back into the OT, damn, gotta move some of my PT stuff. Or buy more shelfs....................................................... (goes and gets more shelves from lowes)
Matteo Kenobi Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Thanks Dark Rebellion, those are some nice sets we hope to see =] For some reason I'm drawn to the republic attack shuttle as well as the AAT =] The Jedi News lists seems a bit more believable, but i do hope we get something with Count Dooku =] The IG style battle pack really doesn't sound to appealing to me, i may pick up one but that to me is pretty dissapointing. The clone battlepack on the other hand looks pretty good though!
The Rancor Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 OMG, thanks for that news DarkRebellion I think these rumours are based on trade catalogues, otherwise there wouldn't be so much detail. So that way the rumours could be true but only true as preliminary sets.
KimT Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 Add these to the last list. List Removed And done Where did you find these rumours?
Matteo Kenobi Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 And done Where did you find these rumours? Hopefully from a reliable source because i would love a Hoth army builder =]
darkrebellion Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Add these to the last list. List Removed Thanks Rune Haako for the extra info . You aren´t referring to the MINI ones with the first two ? Well a Taun Taun would be great and the Ahsoka starfighter sounds good too .
Justin2224 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Maybe the Ahsoka Fighter with come with R2-KT (the pink one). Sound like a cheap way to get a key fig. Might have to hold out on the Twilight or AT-TE. But how to get Rex............. The Corperate Alliance Droid would be nice to have redone, maybe with Whorm if he's not with the AAT. And, if not the mini, the Republic Cruiser will probably be like the 6211 IDS, not bad. And hope it comes with similar figs.
commanderbly42 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Whung posted this!. Anyhow, this is great news! 09 sounds just as expensive as 08.
LEGOMAN132 Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 That looks nice a new Space police i was hopeing for that hope we get new trans green or red like the old ones had. its to bad MM is over from that list.hope it becomes a space them and not just a Galaxy Patrol/Space Police theme if it is it will still be at the top of my 09 list
Kynergy Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) ^^ This is AWSOME. Anyone know if this is completly true? Anyway, looks like we are going to be getting a Venator, that means so new figures, maybe the clone officers in gray that we saw in the film, and some pilots and such. A Solar Sailor, Thats going to be interesting how they pull this one off. ENDOR FTW Two new shuttles, seperatist and republic, but no droid packs? :( Oh well. Another Vader Tie, oh well. But should have some interesting figs. Maybe Shak Ti. ANd we are going to get the Y-Wing, which is nice. Assasin Droid and Vulture Bomber I don't know what they are, pics? And also, the Pirate Tank, anyone know what that is? And then there is one mystery set.... This is going to be awsome. EDIT- I just noticed that we are getting a clone pack, and a droid pack, thats seems like it will be very strange...But the Clone pack sounds awsome. It seems like it will come with a new AT-RT or some other walker, and then 4 clones, AWSOME. Now I will have sweet dreams Edited August 19, 2008 by Kynergy
Erdbeereis Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 This list is absolutely fantastic! All of the sets sound amazing with tons of possibilities for new figs. I even see Endor and Tauntauns in there! Thanks for the great news!

I can't believe we're getting a venator, id certainly like to see that! And ENDOR AND HOTH FTW! And my favorite ATTACK SHUTTLE =]!!!!
Justin2224 Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Hate to kill your spirit, but I think the Clone Turbo Tank and Venator are the Brickmaster minis, but I could be wrong.
hollisbrick Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I saw this list on th link in the 09 pirates thread! This is going to be the most expensive 09 ever Just when I thought I was gonna take a break from Lego next year
SWMAN Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I cannot wait to see pics of these sets. Hopfefully early pics for January sets will be leaked soon.
