Matteo Kenobi Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Wow great knows Hinckly, thanks! Yeah I would imagine it would be Hoth or Endor, which is a great sign that those rumors are true!
Klaus-Dieter Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 You're focusing too much on the crown and not the hairstyle. Leia has hair like that on Hoth and Endor... Thank you very much for that information, Hinckley! Yes, it's right, I focused too much on the crown and not on the hairstyle. But I didn't know that the crown could be put away. So that's something really different. Since the Hoth set is imo surely only a little until medium sized set and no large set and since this set shall include a Tauntaun I think it's very unlikely that a Leia minifig will be included in this set. It surely will be either some sort of big BP with some troopers or a set with Hoth Han and Hoth Luke. But since the Endor set surely will be a big set (I think that size and price class will be very similar to this year's AT-TE since it'll after my knowledge be no exclusive set) I could well imagine that it'll include Leia with this new hair piece. Cool info Hinckley, I'm guessing it's gonna be an episode 5 or 6 set then. Perhaps she'll be in the proposed Home 1 set. Yes, that might be well possible if TLG releases a Home 1 set - but I doubt that since it was planed to only release one of the three joices from the poll (and it's very obvious that Palpatine's Arrest will make it). But I personally hope for a Home 1 set of course, too. Klaus-Dieter

Pascoal Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Hi people! I´m new here, so... i´m a little nervous I just want to comment one thing that someone said this week, and that is "battle packs will cost 14.€ in 2009". Well... this information is not correct. The prices of the new battle packs will be the same as usual I hope this is a good notice.
Erdbeereis Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 That is good news Pascoal! By the way, welcome to Eurobricks! Feel free to introduce yourself in this thread.

Tim Bit Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 welcome to eurobricks Pascoal, i really shouldn't welcome you cause I'm newer than you The clone Bp looks great I'll get a few of those for clone gear. The asasin bp looks good for the blue parts inventory. The hyena seems intriuging to me for some reason. Darth Vaders Tie looks great. The AAt looks like a definate buy for me and the shuttle is ugly. The full sivzed venator sounds intruiging to me for minifigs.

Welcome to the eurobricks forum, Pascoal, and thanks for your contribution, I hope you will like it here. hyena seems intriuging to me for some reason. Darth Vaders Tie looks great. The AAt looks like a definate buy for me and the shuttle is ugly. Darth Vaders Tie is the best IMO, but I also like the Shuttle...Why do you think it is ugly ??

Hi Tim, yes the shuttle is uggly and don´t respects the mf scale, far away from it indeed. But the AAT isn´t better either, too blocky, too big, and the mf not the better choice, exception made to the jedi mf because that one is one of my favourites

Navy Trooper Fenson Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 GOSH! Didn´t nobody notice that the BPs cost 13.99€, yet?
Pascoal Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 GOSH! Didn´t nobody notice that the BPs cost 13.99€, yet? Well... for my country S@H the price is 12.95€ and and local TRU has the same price
Tim Bit Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Is 13.99 euros alot for a battle pack? (Sorry don't really pay attention to the dollar.) In Canada there still $12.99.
Matteo Kenobi Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 They are still the same on S@H USA, however I wouldn't be suprised if the cause for the quick price increase is becuase of all the worlds stock market...chaos. Hopefully any price increases won't be perminent.

Hopefully any price increases won't be perminent. i don't think the set prices will be affected by market fluctuations? if there's any change of set price, more likely it will be due to increased cost of production (or at least claimed increased cost of production).
Wout Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Is 13.99 euros alot for a battle pack? (Sorry don't really pay attention to the dollar.) In Canada there still $12.99. In the Netherlands they are around 14 euro (which is something like +/- 18 US dollar) while they are in The U.S. around 10 U.S. dollar.
legopiotre Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 In the Netherlands they are around 14 euro (which is something like +/- 18 US dollar) while they are in The U.S. around 10 U.S. dollar. Generally speaking, (I only studied the price difference between France and Belgium, that are rather close countries but they are the same differences with other countries, small sets are cheaper in Belgium but big sets are more expensive than in France. Because they are the same prices to make and transport in Europe (LEGO come from the same factories in Europe, I am not speaking about the US, which has its own factories and a far bigger market), TLG adapts its prices to the market and the ask in order to make the more money they can. It can seem some times strange but I think we have to respect LEGO prices policy and if we can, try to get the sets where they are the cheapest.
baby Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Well... for my country S@H the price is 12.95€ and and local TRU has the same price LUCKY you Anyway still is a good news as the price still the same
Lord Santos Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Lego organized an tour around the factory and I saw the clone bp beeing made: the clone gunner has a chromed helmet! And Ashoka's fighter is pink and has R2-KT and a Tri-fighter witha buzz droid. Bug eyes Windu is not that bug looking

Bug eyes Windu is not that bug looking er... chrome helmet? are you sure? i thought they stopped producing chrome stuff because it wore off easily. and er... i think no one has seen a chrome clone trooper helmet? it will be so out of place among the other troopers.

Take a look at the pic That gunner looks like he has a pretty cromed up helmet. I wouldn't be surprised if Ashokas star fighter was pink. The pink droid would definitely be the pride of my collection. are you sure the tri isn't the original. A not so bug eyed windu is fine with me cause I ain't buying the attack shuttle.
