MattZitron Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 It annoys me that Rebelscum have acted like its a big scoop. When EB have been on the ball for ages. Quote
OOM-30 Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Wont Ultimate Space Battle be available at S@H also? That B-wing looks pretty good. The pilot looks like a Sullustan. Does anyone think that the B-wing pic might be the box front with out the OTC and set name stuff? I like that there is a new droid head for R4-P17. Cant wait to see more pics. Quote
n'henk pas Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 |-/ the ultimate space battle is a target exclusive |-/ so, i can't get it... but i think it'll show up on eb to, but i hope theyre gonna make the body of r4-p117 as well, that would be very cool! p.s: i really like the b-wing to :-D it's not grey, and it's not white, a bit of a mix between white and grey! looks like tlc listened to complains about the white colors of the x-wing and the new snowspeeder *satis* Quote
LegoSW Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Meh, I am pretty pooped, I NEED that red Interceptor, but I am not buying the combo, I already have everything else there. So that is one I can cross off, unless it appears separate. I am loving that B-Wing, and since I never got the original I am definitely buying it! Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Hey I didn't notice the new head. Looks very good. Will this set be availabe form Shop@home England? I need it so bad. Quote
prateek Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Both sets are awesome but the Bwing pilot is wierd Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 n'henk pas, Don't worry, you'll be able to buy it via S@H ;) Sarg, Tose sets are not exclusives, therefore, you can buy them at regular shops and S@H ;) Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Are you sure. If your right then you just made my whole week. Quote
The Middleman Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Are you sure. If your right then you just made my whole week. Yeah, this is Jan line, not something like the Ultimate Space Battle. Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 I'm pretty sure Sarg (if not positive) ;) Look at the set numbers: only 4 numbers ;) (Ok, its odd that the exclusive USB has 4 numbers too though) Quote
The Middleman Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 I'm pretty sure Sarg (if not positive) ;) Look at the set numbers: only 4 numbers ;) (Ok, its odd that the exclusive USB has 4 numbers too though) But that will probably be available at S@H as well. Quote
Darth_Ewok Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 I will probably get the space battle (for obi's starfighter and some other ships to!) and I will probably get the B-wing because of all the good peices. it looks alot better then the original. :) Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Am I the only one who is getting the Space Battle for all the ships and not just for one? The Vultures will go in my cilindric hangar bay I'm making. The Tri will be eitehr used for pieces, used for pieces or used for pieces. And Anakins fighter will be painted anotehr colour (I already made a blue one. And then Obi's fighter will be great too. Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Actually Sarg, I will buy it also for all the ships !!!!!! They will look really nice in my Prequel Hangar !!!!!!!! I will but the Slave1 for the ship and minifigs, and double of everything else !!!!!!!!!!! Yeahhhhhhhh ;) Quote
Darth_Ewok Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 The MAIN reason I want the space battle is for obi's fighter. but all the other ships are good to. ;) Quote
n'henk pas Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 i only hope they aren't gonna make those sets far to expensive.... :| why did i start collecting every episode III set? :P but i have to buy the wookie catamaran and the turbo tank and the wookie attack first, after i've done that, i'll probaply buy the ultimate space battle (yes, only for the red starfighter = i already have ani's and i already have a tri fighter as well) but do you guys think that s&h europe is going to sell the ultimate space battle set to? Quote
Bloke Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Lo Nice B Wing...dunno if i will get it as i have the original one....wonder if it will come with a control centre or other engineer bloke?? As i said its nice, the ship looks good...apart from the cockpit which in my opinion looks a bit pants but the pilot interests me a lot and is that a missile launcher i spy in the shot too?? Lets hope that we get piccies of the other sets soon ish...my wallet wont like these at all *wacko* All the best Dave Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 but do you guys think that s&h europe is going to sell the ultimate space battle set to? I wouldn't worry about that ;) The more I look to the old Bwing, the more i love the new one *wub* !!!!!!!!! Lets hope the awing will be as well designed ;) Quote
LegoSW Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Is anyone willing to sell me the red one when they get it? lol I really want it but I am definietly buying that combo, I already have everything else. I'll buy it for a tenner! Quote
Beagle Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 Personally I love 'em both! Big beefy wings on the b-wing, and a more accurate silhouette. I wonder if it'll come with some sort of display stand... this is a tough ship to figure out how to display. I love R4's red head... may more styles of astromech head follow, though I suspect they won't (I would love to see the monochrome, burnished copper head that Obi's droid has in the second half of Ep3... they've already got the copper half-domes in the engines of the turbo tank and catamaran, all they'd need to do is slap some paint on there). Can't wait to see the rest of the sets! Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 The more I look at the Bwing, the more I think its perfect. The wings look fantastic with those grey "slopes", the guns look a lot more realistic !!!! Also, there is a lot let orange parts !!!! The main body looks really faithfull to the original !!!! I see 2 modifications to be made (from my personnal point of view): * change all the tan color parts * get rid of the twin gun in front of the cokpit I cannot wait thursday to see a lot more pics !!!!! (The San Diego Comi-Con start wednesday evening for the VIPs) Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 Can anyone work out wether Obi's fighter is dark or light grey. Some of it looks dark (the cockpit, the front sticker) but some of it looks light (the area near the funny wing plates. Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 I'm positive its dark red Sarg !!!!!! I guess its just bad light that makes you wonder. Its a little more pale, but doesn't look like the flashy red !!!!!! Confirmation this week ;) Quote
jonfett Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 I think Sarg was asking whether the grey used in the model is dark or light grey. I assume that there is a mixture as I can definately see both shades in the model, so there are some slight differences from Anakins fighter. But I guess that the actual structure is the same in both. Jon. Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 OOOOPS, sorry guys :$ Its weird, it really looks that it has both GREYS (and not red ;) ). Modification in the colors I sense :D Quote
