hollisbrick Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 I just got my latest LEGO Catalog in the mail 10 mins ago and scanned this pic from it! Well Im abit late but I guess its just a confirmation pic... >_> You get yours sent to you? I have to get it when I go to the shops and it's there by co-incedince Still, it doen't look too bad
Oky Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Thanks for the pic, Darth Legois! Could you post a link to a hi-res version? Btw, if this set is featured in a catalog that is available to the public, and if it's set to be released in two months, I don't think it's very prelim. So, anyone who doesn't like it's design will have to deal with it. And if there was anything like a sail included (which wouldn't make much sense IMO), I think they would show it on the picture.
Darth_Legois Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Woo! I'm hoping I get mine today. Shiny new 09 catalogue Even better - release dates for the next 6 months. I can post some release dates in the "Aussie Sales" Thread if you want. What are you looking for mate? Also Ahsoka's JSF is only at selected retailers.. And theres NO PIRATES !!!!!!! Accept that Pirate builder set.... Guess it will be in the second half of '09 You get yours sent to you? I have to get it when I go to the shops and it's there by co-incedince Still, it doen't look too bad Yea from The LEGO Club. There was a thing at BigW for "Spend over $40 on LEGO and get a free subscription to LEGO Club magazine" So yea...I couldn't be bothered paying $15 Umm it looks ugly....like some sort of squid with tentacles which are to short...
baby Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Nice set, think we will get another Count Dooku again. Thanks for the picture too.

Derek Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) I just got my latest LEGO Catalog in the mail 10 mins ago and scanned this pic from it! Were there any other new sets in it? Edited December 15, 2008 by darthperson
General Magma Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Woo! I'm hoping I get mine today. Shiny new 09 catalogue Even better - release dates for the next 6 months. You are getting 2009 catalogue's for free?! And this early?! TELL ME HOW TO GET!!!!!
Ras 74 Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Doesn´t it looks to broad, or to short? I might be wrong, have to study the movie a bit. Also want to see some more pics on this one. I think I make out that it will fit 2 Manga guards and one speeder in the back. Does anyone else see what it says? Edit:Never mind, looked closer at the pic from BB. -Ras-
Darth Legolas Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) You know.. I just realize that the Solar Sailer picture shows the ship from the back! At first I thought the light gray TIE thingies were actually the dome before I looked at the official picture! :P I would like to have a Clone Wars Dooku, just so he fits in, and I dislike the magnaguards. It would be 100 times better if 2 things happened. 1. They need posable legs, like the actual ones. 2. They need to have removable head cape thingies! Those things are so ugly! :P Awesome about the catalogues, and for the AAT: I am sad at the detachable speeder. It's hideous, but I am oh, so happy that there's a door lift up in the back to hide it! And if there isn't... well I'll have to do some modification! EDIT: Just a pointer, The CIS shuttle is DEFINITELY not gonna be the H landing craft. That would have to be the size of a house.. and it's NOT a shuttle. It's probably the Neimiodian shuttle with Nute Gunray. Edited December 15, 2008 by Darth Legolas
Darth_Legois Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Were there any other new sets in it? No..Just Ahsoka's JSF & the other new stuff we already have pics for. You are getting 2009 catalogue's for free?! And this early?! TELL ME HOW TO GET!!!!! Well we have a promotional thing here in Australia - $14.95 AUSD and you get 4 LEGO Club magazines a year and they send you a catalog with them. And its for a lifetime* But BigW here had a special thing where if you spend $40 AUSD or more on LEGO you get it for free, Which is how I got mine. Doesn´t it looks to broad, or to short?I might be wrong, have to study the movie a bit. Also want to see some more pics on this one. I think I make out that it will fit 2 Manga guards and one speeder in the back. Does anyone else see what it says? Edit:Never mind, looked closer at the pic from BB. -Ras- I know everything looks to short on it.
The Who Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Sorry if somebody has pointed this out, but... ..it looks like the back grey domes have hinges to open up. Maybe for the speeder? And I think it looks pretty good. You can also kind of see a fig's hand in the cockpit-window at the front.
Matteo Kenobi Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I have to say I actually like the Solar Sailor, the grey dome on the back may actually be some sort of room for cargo or droids or something. Has TLC truly given us an interior for a small Lego space-craft? Or is it just to good to be true? Can't wait to see more pictures, and thank you all for posting them
Darth_Dracus Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I'm all for a new Dooku but to tell the truth I doubt I'll be getting it. I just can't get used to those tan minifigs (their abominations!) and when I did start accepting them, they went and made the eyes all big. And I'm sure the hair will be weird as hell, also. Thank god I got the $10 set with him in it.

Stealth Hunter Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I wonder if Dooku's triangular beard is going to be connected to his hair or his neck. Perhaps there's no beard? What would a CW Count Dooku be without a ridiculous oversized beard? Most likely the beard will be printed on the head, anyway.
Belloq Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Sorry if it was already given out, but this is what the description reads Commanding the Separatist assault on the Republic, Count Dooku flies from battlefield to battlefield in his Solar Sailor Starship. The Sith Lord's MagnaGuards and personal speeder make him nearly impossible to catch. I think it should've read "flees" instead of flies Edited December 16, 2008 by Belloq
THE-FORCE Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 http://cgi.ebay.com/LEGO-8018-Armored-Assa...%3A1%7C294%3A50AAT Pics, finally There is a speeder I had been hoping we'd get a back end to the AAT that resembled the film version (with the ramp) Instead we get a hole where the speeder goes Oh well That Ebay guy is saying that there are 4 super battle droids in the set, he say is in Q&A.
KimT Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 That Ebay guy is saying that there are 4 super battle droids in the set, he say is in Q&A. Which is odd, since the box depicts 7 minifigs. 1 x Clone Trooper 1 x Yoda CW 2 x Battle Droids 3 x Super Battle Droids Now who's wrong? The box or the seller on eBay? (rhetorical question)
-JD- Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) AAT: Maybe the 'speeder' () goes throught the back and slots into the cockpit, to act as both the cockpit and the 'speeder'. I'll check the pictures. Yeh, looks like it. Good idea if it does. Solar Sailor: WHY LEGO WHY?! Edited December 16, 2008 by Jammiedodger714
TheBrickHitHouse Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Without a sail Count Dooku's ship is just......well, at the least, the most curious NAME for a set to date! I am desperate for a fleshie Dooku and while i despise the new Clone Wars show I do like the 'look' of Dooku, he could be really impresive as a minifig with that beard
Darth Caedus Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Without a sail Count Dooku's ship is just......well, at the least, the most curious NAME for a set to date!I am desperate for a fleshie Dooku and while i despise the new Clone Wars show I do like the 'look' of Dooku, he could be really impresive as a minifig with that beard Without a sail, it does look odd, but with the likely inclusion of Magnaguard(s) and a fleshie Dooku, this set is a winner for me. Plus I'm a sucker for anything Geonosian-built. And my birthday's in February.
rcpeck Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I just got the AAT from my Toys R Us here in Kentucky. There are 7 minifigs; Yoda, Clone Trooper, 3 SBD's with the rocket arms, and 2 regular battle droids. The speeder does act as the cockpit and also acts as a hatch in the back. You can see in that ebay link how there's two sections to the speeder, well you put the speeder into the back of the AAT and the front snaps in place and the back half lifts up to form a sort of hatch on the back of the AAT. The little black piece on the very back of the speeder acts as a handle to pull it back down and out of the AAT. Does that make sense?
Derek Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Would you be able to possibly do a review? Pretty please? -darthperson
rcpeck Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Would you be able to possibly do a review? Pretty please? -darthperson I wont have a camera until this weekend, but if no one has done one by then I can possibly do one. I also have the hyena droid too, which is nice (and ginormous).
