Ronan Nissen Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 On the August Lego magazine(UK) it shows Obi-wan with a silver lightsaber hilt on the back page gunship promo.I might scan pictures in! I have that, and I think it's just a bad angle of light that makes it look silver.
The Nightwing Reborn Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I'm still hoping for that endor playset. The second it gets anounced, I am going to start saving. TNR
KimT Posted October 29, 2008 Author Posted October 29, 2008 I'm still hoping for that endor playset. The second it gets anounced, I am going to start saving.TNR I think you can safely start saving your money then.
The Nightwing Reborn Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I think you can safely start saving your money then. Well, I'll have to wait until christmas for the sets I was planning on, Endor is a priority. TNR
ditto Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I think you can safely start saving your money then. may i ask why so, has it been confirmed? thought only the january sets are confirmed?
KimT Posted October 29, 2008 Author Posted October 29, 2008 may i ask why so, has it been confirmed? thought only the january sets are confirmed? They are. But I recall the Endor playset being on the list we once saw. The so-called "whung-list". Also You could check the first post on the new rumor we got a week or two ago. Jayhawke found a list
commander_kitten Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 As lego have started making assasin droids and magna gaurds, I thought they may make this guy soon apearing in the Tv series. He is calleg EG-05, Couldn't find a web page but I got a link
Rayman Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 absolutely right! they should have introduced the pearl silver hilts in the first wave. like "from the clone wars sets onwards, all lightsaber hilts will be pearl silver." not introduce it halfway and make us end up with half and half. so irritating. haha. True, but I think LEGO has been doing this for quite sometime. They replaced the helmets of the Imperial Landing Craft Stormtroopers with the ones from the battle pack, midway through release.
simonjedi Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I really love the new releases. Is it just me or has the shuttles cockpit been extended to have 2 pilots? Yoda looks like he's high, and i love the new SBD arms. the Seperatist Speeder bike has the same asthetic of the old clone battlepack bike
Matteo Kenobi Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Is it just me or has the shuttles cockpit been extended to have 2 pilots? Well in the show the cockpit holds two, so hopefully it does here as well. It does look like it though.
Light Light Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I got this information off FBTB. Shocking, I know. The person who posted it claims that it is information given to him by his sales rep at Lego. Just so you all know, I am not 100% on this. I felt that perhaps everyone on here would like to see this as well. Here is the list he gave. It also gives the names of sets we already know, such as the Hyena Bomber and AAT. 4547256 Clone Walker™ Battle Pack/Assasin Droids™ Battle Pack Jan 8016 Hyena Droid Bomber™ Jan 7748 Corporate Alliance Tank Droid™ Aug 7749 Echo Base™ Aug 8017 Darth Vader's TIE Fighter™ Jan 8039 Venator-class Republic Attack Cruiser™ Aug 8036 Separatists Shuttle Aug 8019 Republic Attack Shuttle™ Jan 8018 Armored Assault Tank (AAT)™ 8038 Endor Battle Playset Aug 8037 Y-Wing Aug
Matteo Kenobi Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) Thats very interesting news, thank you Light Light!! Corporate Alliance Tank Droid Oh joy do we really need another one of these things? I wasn't exactly ecstatic when we got it the first time and I think this is a really unneccacry remake. I would rather get a Crab Droid or something as opposed to this. Echo Base - Hmm, this is good, seems like we might be getting a bit of an interior as opposed to a gate. I am wondering how Taun Tauns will fit into this, maybe some sort of Taun Taun cage or something, sounds cool though! Venator Class-Republic Attack Cruiser - Sounds awesome as before, can't wait to hear more about this! Separatists Shuttle - Like I said before, sounds like the equivilent to Dooku's Solar Sailor, which is good, I am interested to see what the Design of this is like. Endor Battle Playset - It's been in every Rumor list for as long as I can remember, can't wait. Y-Wing - The Clone Wars Y wing will probobly be a higher price then the other one, seeing how it is fuller compared to the Rebel one, hopefully it will come with Clone Pilots and not Anikan and Ahsoka.

Light Light Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I know that we already are aware of these sets, but I posted it anyways because we all are not entire sure what we are getting. This kind of rules out our talk of the Solar Sailor and "Pirate Tank."
JimboJones Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) thats cool the corprate tank is sweet. The new boxes are really good and the yoda will go great for my clone wars collection and by the way this has just got to 100 PAGES!!! Edited October 29, 2008 by JimboJones
pedro Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I know that we already are aware of these sets, but I posted it anyways because we all are not entire sure what we are getting. This kind of rules out our talk of the Solar Sailor and "Pirate Tank." Could've been that someone mistook a Separatist Shuttle for a Solar Sailor and AAT for a pirate tank? Anyway it sounds like a great potential lineup. Would be nice to get a new Corporate Alliance Tank Droid. It's a great design, really iconic and deserves an update... plus I missed my chance to get the original!
JimBee Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Do you guys think this is the real Darth Vader TIE?>Snip< Here's the link for more pictures: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=349464 Ah, this set really looks beautiful. Hopefully all of the anniversary sets are this good. I'm wishing for one set for each episode (annv.). It says in the gallery that the lightsaber hilt is chrome, like in the death star set, do you think that TLC will switch back for good? Like I said before, the chrome hilts will be in the limited edition sets, and the pearl silver will replace the bley.
trooperdavinfelth Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Wow, Vader's Tie looks even better in a hand! The new list looks promising... A lack thereof means they'll have more time to work on the Solar Sailor, AND the Dooku fig.
commander_kitten Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I hope the venator features ep.2 style clones, if this is real (I have my doubts)
KimT Posted October 29, 2008 Author Posted October 29, 2008 I hope the venator features ep.2 style clones, if this is real (I have my doubts) Of course it'll be ep2 style. This is the time for the Clone Wars - remember the last wave of sets?
commander_kitten Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Of course it'll be ep2 style.This is the time for the Clone Wars - remember the last wave of sets? You never know if they switch back!

I think the Corporate Alliance Tank Droid is a really cool vehicle and this time I think it could be a lot better than the last one (With normal "dishes" not like the trans orange the TLC give us the last release ). The Echo Base sounds like some kind of control room and maybe the bacta tank scene and with a small hangar (Where the taun tauns where ). All the other are in the past rumor lists so I will not comment on them . Edited October 29, 2008 by darkrebellion
halomaster96 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) TLC should make the venator look like this, only smaller. Also I hope that the January sets will be released for Christmas. Edited October 30, 2008 by halomaster96
trooperdavinfelth Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 You never know if they switch back! Ahh, but remember my theory about the Corporate Tank Droid. It's in the seven thousands whereas the Clone Wars sets are in the eight thousands. Which is why if the Venator is in the eight thousands it must be animated. TLC should make the venator look like this, only smaller.Also I hope that the January sets will be released for Christmas. Varsegi is more than likely behind the design.
Light Light Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 TLC should make the venator look like this, only smaller.Also I hope that the January sets will be released for Christmas. Theres a good chance that will be the design of the ship. And as for your question about the sets being released before Christmas, that is quite possible as well. New sets released just before the busiest holiday in the year are bound to be hot items.
randomparrot Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Also I hope that the January sets will be released for Christmas. They Probably will come out before christmas for presents and sales tend to be lower than the rest of the year in january due to it being after christmas.
