 Maybe it’s just the bad vibes from the Indy theme, but I’m getting more and more nervous about the Jabba Throne Room not coming.

That’s what I fear as well. Fingers crossed that’s not the case.

lifebricks said that heard from some guy that in swamp speeder is Luminara, 2x 442nd clone and 2x b2 droid 3 weeks ago

Is LifeBricks actually a leaker? I know he got some sets early, but I have not seen him scoop anything before. Has he just been sort of under the radar until lately, or am I just oblivious?

I think he just heard whatever it was from an actual leaker and covered it in a video / reposted it.

I'm a little new and not that deep into Star Wars lore so I may just be unaware, but what does the 442nd have to do with Luminara at all? I read their Wookiepedia page and it says they were on Cato Neimoidia with Plo Koon so wouldn't he be more appropriate here? Just wondering.

lego made set with Luminara nad 442nd clones some time ago

Either way that leak about having Luminara, 2 442nds, and 2 B2s is just obviously wrong. The Super Battledroid Minifig has been basically retired since 2015 due to them being prone to breaking.

 

Edit: yeah the alleged "leaker" is literally a nobody who has 2 leaks, one was right, one was wrong. The 442nd Trooper image is visibly photoshopped and it all just makes no sense.

Solid brix studios asked designers why there wasnt b2 in lego sets since 2015. Designers know that fans want b2 again after his question. He asked about kaminoan and after that lego made kaminoan. I dont know if beacuse of him.

Correlation is not causation  Something tells me they didn‘t make a minifig with an expensive new part just because a random Youtuber asked for it.

And yeah, that „leaked“ minifig looks absolutely fake. Try harder. NEXT

This does indeed have me a bit petrified. I guess it's dependent on whether or not 75354 got moved to September and is now 1083 pieces. I have seen some say it is but some say it remains for May. If it in fact did, i unfortunately think Jabba's is off the table :(

I will lol if that figure turns out to be real

It's not out of the question that we COULD get a 442nd Trooper in the set. But that pic itself is fake.

[Fulcrumfan91]

Lol I'm guessing someone also photoshopped another pic of a 212th trooper in green (seems someone's holding it in their hand)

Yeah people are having a laugh about this. I find it annoying.

Ahhh, the good ol‘ minimal effort fake leaks. How I have missed them. NOT.

Are people bored or something? Same with those ridiculous Red Hood and Garfield Spiderman „leaks“

Idk, it's really irritating tho. Wish they'd stop.

First of all if you're referring to with red hood what I think you are the description says it's a custom, he never calls it a leak.

But yeah the spider man one is fake. I still think the image itself was convincing but the account dug itself into a hole in the comments. "Uh, it is a leaked figure, but I painted the arms and legs" like what.

the picture definately looks fake to me.

 

Sounds like we need some actual leaks.... the timing is about right for some descriptions of the summer wave, no?

Yeah, it feels like we should be getting something pretty soon. With how "controversial" this summer wave is supposed to be I thought we might have heard something earlier than usual, but I guess that wasn't the case. I'm planning to just keep my expectations low, that way if we get anything cool I can be pleasantly surprised. Even if the rest of the wave ends up being bad, I can at least say that Yavin sounds exciting and the ISP will probably be worth it for the figures.

Apparently Jabba's TR won't be coming out this year? But might not be canceled. Unless it's one of the mystery sets....maaaybe it's the big one!

I think the SSD coming out of nowhere kinda scrambled its spot in the line of things. If it's still set to come out, it will be a surprise since it isn't really correlating to any of the current outstanding set #/descriptions. I still have hope, but recent developments have made me a bit nervous. According to FalconBricks, 75354, the previous number for Jabba, is set to come out September 1 with 1083 pieces - stark contrast to the rumored Jabba being roughly 650 pieces. Maybe this is still the same set? I always found it a tad bit unrealistic to do Jabbas throne room at the previously rumored price and piece count and could realistically see it being a 1000+ piece set.

I wonder if Jabba's throne room got pushed back to coincide with the release of the Sail Barge (whenever that happens).

Wouldnt trust the leak, some parts look rubbed off imo.

My guess? It became one with the force, just like 77014

Lol that's my guess as well

[Goofster]

To be honest, may be off-topic but general star wars conversation, why did people complain about the sea weed guy? We've always gotten weird looking ALIENS in star wars, admiral trench, everyone in cantinas, everyone in the uscru district, etc, have these people ever actually watched a sci-fi property?
