If other brands could use minifigs the picture would be completely different. For example, as a moccer I am only interested in the parts and minifigs when i buy a set. I may build the set once, disassemble it after a week and the parts wander into the bins. So i have no interest in sets from other brands because neither do i collect sets nor would display them (this applies for Lego sets as well). For me, it comes all down to the minifigs.

That's why, as a customer, I would like to see the protection of the minifig fall. The market would be flooded with minfigs we only could dream of and more. Also think of castle, pirates,... minifigs!

This sums it up for me as well, another moc builder.

Has to be an Andor S2 tie-in set then  

Immediate must-buy then.

I really hope we get at least a single Andor S2 set.

It appears a new U-Wing is coming next year, according to Childish Landino 

LET’S KRIFFING GO!!!!

(I hope for K2SO and Dedra Meero as figures, maybe even Mon Mothma and a Army or Death Trooper)

Calm. Kindness, kinship. Love. I’ve given up all chance at financial stability, I’ve made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts. I wake up every day to a build I started 15 years ago from which there’s only one conclusion: I’m damned for what I do. My anger, my ego, my unwillingness to yield, my eagerness to build, they’ve set me on a path from which there is no escape. I yearned to be a savior against price increases without contemplating the cost, and by the time I looked down, there was no longer any bricks beneath my feet.

 

What is… what is my sacrifice? I’m condemned to use the bricks of my enemy to defeat them. I burn my bank account for someone else’s future. I burn my life, to make a set that I know I’ll never see. No, the ego that started this build will never have a mirror, or an audience, or the light of gratitude. So what do I sacrifice?

 

Everything.

^^ HA!

Help me Andor S2, you're my only hope.

[Meaf]

New U-Wing is really cool. I assume that's for Andor S2, hopefully we get more than one set this time but even if we don't it's nice to know we're at least (probably) getting something good. 

[SketchBrick]

Polybag 30708 is said to be a Millennium Falcon

[Stefanisimo]

Finally a new U-wing I'm so excited! Even though I have the old one I am really curious to see how they improve upon it (please don't be small)

Curious to see the color scheme but it will probably be the white one considering that one belongs to Cassian.

We really need a movie like wave for Andor alone

I really hope so. It’s insane we still haven’t seen an updated Mon Mothma yet given all the recent projects she’s been in.

After all these years... and it's gonna be $240 -_-

[NeutralNoodle]

Andor S2 U-Wing AND a UCS Jango’s Slave I?? I might actually buy Star Wars sets again next year.

If it’s the same scale as the 2015 set that’s not that bad

[starlego98]

Man i wish a playset instead of an UCS. I hope we could see a zam wessel speeder in the future

 

 

Also 0 sets from revenge of the sith a lot of people were mad saying that we were going go get a palpatine arrest diorama

[ArrowBricks]

Also rumours 75400 Plo Koon’s Jedi Starfighter. 
 

Less reliable, DaveBricks1995. 
 

Take this one with a pinch of salt. 

[TheScaryDoor]

I have already the UCS Slave 1 from Boba so an easy pass for me but great for the people who want a Jango UCS. I also have the U-Wing from Rogue One but I hope the new version will have a bigger cockpit and is bigger in general. But lets wait and see (and hope for a Fondor) 😊.

My God…. 
The Nerf-herders actually did it. Mandr won (watch him still complain somehow, even after this next piece of information)

Cool, but why does Lego need 2 Jedi Starfighters in the same year? It’s what’s making me think that one is Bantha excrement. DaveBricks1995 also says that an AT AT Pilot helmet is incoming.

Here’s hoping for Commander Wolffe. 

 

No matter the cost, no matter what sacrifices we must make. We must ensure that any and all Andor sets sell well. Also hopefully if the June wave is Andor oriented we get a Army Trooper BP.

It would pair up great with the ARC170, especially if it had some kind of exploding function

Oh don't get me wrong, the value might be reasonable for what it is. It's just a shame that anybody who wants a Jango minifig will have to shell out a lot for the whole set (unless we get a microfighter in 2026...)

That sounds incredible - 75060 is still one of my absolute favourite UCS sets 

It's one set that I'll be more than happy to pay full RRP for - the only downside is that presumably it will be called 'Jango Fett's Starship'...!

I'm sure we had an AT-AT pilot helmet rumoured a year or two ago, no? That's the red flag for me (which would put the U-wing on similarly shaky ground, as I believe that was a rumour from the same guy).

Don’t know if anyone else has noticed but the rumoured price for 75399 was $80 and now that set is rumoured to be the Uwing. Which if true given adjustment for inflation is going to be a bit smaller than the previous one 

which I think is ok as they’ve done quite well when it comes to downsizing some ships in recent years

Edited September 23, 2024 by Llewop

[BrickBob Studpants]

Funny how the recent UCS Slave One speculation turned out to be proven true! Just with a different version

Sounds cool! And it’s nice to finally have a companion for 2010‘s UCS Jedi Starfighter

Not sure about the plausibility of the other rumours. Wasn‘t an AT-AT Driver helmet already planned and cancelled one or two years ago? Or was that a false rumour altogether?

[Flawless Cowboy]

2015 UCS Slave I owners breathing a collective sigh of relief. We may not get another UCS Boba Fett’s Slave I 

[Swordy]

A neew U-Wing? YES! (That was a typo, but I’m gonna leave it in because why not.) Apparently it’s 75399, which is rumored to be $80. I personally would’ve liked to have seen it at $140, given it’s the Republic Gunship equivalent of the Rebel Alliance. Whatever; I can’t wait to see a new U-Wing, especially if it ties into Andor S2 (which should be releasing around that May time period, as I recall).

 

UCS Jango Slave 1 — My reaction: Wait what.

Now I’m conflicted. On the one hand, I love Boba’s Slave 1, and I’ve always wanted a UCS version. Jango’s would be a nice compromise until then. On the other hand, though, I’d then have a Jango Slave 1 that’s way larger than my current Boba Slave 1 (the 2021 model), whereas my preference would be the other way around. Besides, a playset would be far more exciting and include more interesting figures. I think I know why it’s a UCS set, though: only adult collectors care about Jango’s Slave 1, and it’s because of nostalgia and nostalgia alone. There, I said it. (On second thought, that might come off too strong, but what is the internet if not outrage? :P)

I’m gonna hold my breath on Plo Koon’s starfighter, although it’d be a beauty of a set if true.
