has there been any rumours about snowtrooper battlepack including any speeder bikes? I'd be nice to have a few extra of those to fill in the UCS AT-AT speeder bike bay

Yes! The Snowtrooper Battlepack is supposed to contain a speeder bike.

Just saw the UCS AT-AT, really tempted to buy it. If only they could have given the UCS Gunship the same love in terms of mini-figures. But keeping OT fans happy will always be TLG's priority. :hmpf:

AT-AT is minifigure scale, gunship is not, it’s really that simple. TLG has nothing against fans despite what gunship haters may think.

The AT-AT is still a display model, and to quote LEGO themselfs commenting on the gunhip "We put in two minifigures for good measure, because people expect it – even though we keep saying with a model like this it’s really not about minifigures." So why do we get so many minifigures in OT sets all the time, but really few in PT sets... :cry_sad:

I mean TLG could have just put in generic clone toopers instead of snowtroopers in the AT-AT casue all I remember is some guys in white. :tongue:

The UCS AT-AT is impressive. I really like minifig scale builds. 9 minifigs is too few to fill in the walker, though, the Cantina has 21!

Exactly, no idea why people keep acting like it's some secret anti-prequel dog whistle or something for lego to do that. It's very clearly a case of scale.

Cantina is MBS, AT-AT is UCS. As a general rule, sets larger than minifig scale are have 2ish, ones at minifig scale have 3-10 figures, and mbs have around 20.

yeah it's a speeder bike, e-web, "snow wall" and display stand. It's got normal guns, too!

Yep, that might be the general rule, but for $800 I would like to have more in the set given that having 20 in a $350 set is apparently ok. Specially for this set with so many seats waiting for a couple of new imperial Hoth battle packs and the corresponding additional money to spend... :hmpf_bad:

If nothing else, you can all rest easy knowing that apparently, no one else is satisfied either! Either it has too many figs, or too few... take your pick. Never mind the dozens of times people have reiterated how this all works, how both the AT-AT and the Gunship are entirely consistent with the sets that preceded them, how if it had included enough figs to fill every seat inside, it would easily cost $100 more... people still find reason to complain.

Maybe have a little faith that things are gonna work out okay. That LEGO actually gets it, and will give you what you want, if you exercise a little patience. That, as they say in Tara, Tomorrow is another day.

:look: I get the sense there's going to be information coming out soon that will please a lot of people.

Yeah, we're gonna hear about the contents of those figure packs soon I'll bet.

Don’t do this to yourselves, guys.

The two bounty hunters could be moderately interesting. They’re just listed as unknown, maybe we just have no idea who they are instead of them being just generic side characters.

Cad Bane maybe?

This is not a spoiler for the show, it's just me speculating.

Provided the speeder bike is the same design as the one in the AT AT I’m easily buying two of the battle pack. Very keen to see what pieces make up the snow wall… you would need 12 battle packs to fill all the seats with normal Snowtroopers so there’s gonna be a lot of parts left over begging to be cobbled together to make a some terrain.

I usually temper my expectations, but I feel like jdubbs is generally very deliberate when making somewhat ambiguous comments in regards to future sets.

Of course, it could be nothing at all, but I'm choosing to believe it's something :grin:

The Hoth AT-ST and Snowtrooper Battle Pack will be revealed tomorrow (11/15) at 8AM CST it looks like. 

Looking forward to seeing what they look like.

I wish they revealed sets from multiple themes each day. Some of the waves are so laughably small it’s like an appetiser… to an appetiser :tongue: Case in point: where’s the Razor Crest microfighter? I know it’s not much, but if the waves already are as puny as they are, they could at least reveal all of the sets that are part of them :shrug_oh_well:

It's like if they did an AT-ST UCS version 2.0. Throw in a driver - maybe even Chewie. But that's it. You won't get more.

TLG doesn't deem the prequels sets to sell except for 1-2 droid vessels and Jedi Star fighters - and even there only the EPIII versions. It's just that. Im not saying this is how things have to be or that it's a good thing. But it is how things are now. The Lego community being full of conspiracies about secret anti-prequel agendas or whatever is just making us look ridiculous. And it's already not so hard to look stupid with 30 when your shelf is full of toys ;)

Wink.leaks on IG claims that Chewy gets “snow gear”, which presumably means some snow printing on his fur :thumbup: At least there’s that :tongue: I wish they’d also reveal the accessory packs today, but not very likely considering the Marvel one hasn’t been among yesterday’s reveals either

Not sure what you’re getting at here, as the only sets we’re going to see today are the Hoth AT-ST and the Snowtrooper Battlepack :tongue: At least judging by the instructions they’ve added to the database
