Marvel’s got sneak peaks at things releasing In November 2025. How the kriff don’t we have a public 30 second teaser at least?!!!!

It’s the only thing we have next year. 

 

 

Excellent work at manifesting the teaser trailer release there! Even if it was very short.

I must use the Time Stone to fast forward time so I can see Summer 2025 sets

Ahsoka’s Interceptor has three Minifigs (Ahsoka, R7, Anakin) - and even Jedi Bob’s JSF had three ‘figs (Jedi Bob, Clone Calamari, Gonk Droid) - so Yoda’s two-Minifig starfighter seems to be the anomaly. It is safe to assume that Plo Koon’s JSF will have three Minifigs as well, IMO. 
 

I hope so, I want Commander Wolffe

You wanna use some of that reality power to manifest a canon Mara Jade?

Anyone have any ideas on who else could be included in the Plo Koon starfighter. I swear I saw something that said it will have 3 minifigs.

Ideally Lego would be nice and give us Wolffe. But it might be a ROTS set so maybe a 442nd Trooper or new Nemoidian Guardsman?

Obi Wan's also had three (two minifigures plus a droid), so I think it's pretty likely that's what we get with Plo's as well. It definitely helps take the sting off the price increases of the starfighters, so I wouldn't be surprised if that just ends up being standard going forward.

Lisan Al Gaib. Show us the way.

Unfortunate indeed. At least it‘s gonna be a brand-new Plo, hopefully with a more accurate non-rubbery moulded headpiece!

I agree- even if it's rubber, if it's the newer rubber and not TCW era rubber, it'll be a huge improvement.

But those are $15 and $10 more than Plo's. I feel like that's something that really needs to be considered.

This is actually why I think Plo's will only have him and the droid- that set came out before the price increases really started hitting. Bob's starfighter- with two figs and a GNK- was $40, Ahsoka's is $45 with two figs and an astromech. Plo's is back to $30.

According to the Beatles' Yellow Submarine film, nothing is real - it's all in the mind.

(slightly) more on topic: I'm still angry they didn't release the Bounty Hunter Pursuit updated set in 2020, as that speeder chase scene was the best part of EP II, with the space duel between the Fetts and Kenobi coming in a close second. (sonic bombs go SPROOOIIIING!) They both deserve more love from LEGO.

Wow, further evidence that we live in the matrix.

 

I’d say that the Tie Avenger is a potential candidate for a set next year.

Huh - I did not realise that! While I do appreciate a decrease in prices, I hope that build/detailing and Minifigs will not be sacrificed to that end!

Quite possible, if the ship in the Andor teaser is indeed a TIE Avenger!

Agreed, it's such an obvious set to remake and we rarely get a Star Wars set that colorful.

While it doesn‘t look exactly like its Legends counterpart, I‘d say there‘s a good chance it‘ll be the canon design. After all, the name has been recanonised already!

Also, it‘s kinda funny how this short teaser is already more toyetic than the entire first season was

Oh, I definitely agree! 
 

[BrickBob Studpants]

I doubt there‘s gonna be another Andor set, but it‘d be a good opportunity to have more

Range

Troopers! At least leaked Hasbro figures indicate that we‘ll see them again in the show. Love that design

Oh that actually is a pretty good point. I still feel like people might still find $30 for just Plo and the astromech to be a bit egregious, but I think you're probably right because it would look weird if you got the same amount of minifigures in the two comparably sized 2025 starfighters but one was just $15 more for some reason.

This is why we need an Andor battlepack.

We got them before in a Solo Set

And now I would have to sell both of my kidneys just to get the little cloth accessory they came with. 

A 1:1 exact rerelease in a cheaper set would make me extremely happy. Give us a long-overdue Mimban battle pack too, and Shoretroopers as well while we're at it.

As a massive range trooper fan, I can assure you, they might as well have never released. They are IMPOSSIBLE to obtain.

Sure, but they charged $35 for yoda and an astromech in 2023. They charged $30 for Anakin and an astromech back in 2020- which due to our crippling inflation would be $37 now.

They go for 50$, not that Impossible but I understand, I think I bought 2 for 40 euro each years ago

If they released now we'd be lucky to get cloth again

I actually got that set on clearance mostly for the range troopers, but I ended up selling it because I thought the build was pretty boring.

Yes please. And while we're still at it, a tank driver with a proper helmet...
Generally I feel we are overdue of an Imperial battlepack, which would include other stuff than just stormtroopers. The same goes for the Alliance/New Republic. 
In recent years we have only got clones.

[BrickBob Studpants]

Now I feel silly for censoring it  Granted, a trooper type reappearing isn‘t that much of a spoiler (assuming the leaked figure actually ties in with Andor, but I don‘t see a good reason to randomly rerelease it otherwise).

I wasn‘t on board with the idea of a S1 BP, but one based on S2 would be more than welcome now!

Sometimes I forget I'm a LSW boomer...I still remember getting the original Plo Koon starfighter and that was $25, but I guess at this point that would cost at least $35 ($36.21 according to the BLS). Of course there is much to be said about how much the buying power of the average person has (or rather, has not) increased, but either way I guess we're just at a point where two minifigures in a $30 set is pretty typical. And in fairness, I guess Star Wars as a theme has been somewhat stingy with the minifigures for a while now (or maybe they always were and I just didn't notice as a kid).

[CloneCommando99]

I wonder if they’re revamping the Delta-7 design with Plo Koon’s starfighter next year.

 

We already know they’re doing it with Ahsoka’s interceptor.
