2004/2005 Sets and discussion thread

[jonfett]

(RD2D, another similar droid)

Maybe this is the red R2 unit we have seen so often lately, it would be much cooler if it was a black one though!

Another male figure (unknown at the moment)

Possibly Uncle Owen? or maybe Obi Wan?

Jon.

[The Middleman]

10 figures, sounds ok. Could've done with a couple more, though.

Love the news about the technic links, I'm looking forward to those.

[The Middleman]

It says 'the movie', though, not 'the movies'.

[Jipay]

Sounds sweet ! It seems that lego is finally giving us the minifigs count we deserve :-D

[Jipay]

And thanks for the news sam :-D

[Jipay]

Possibly Uncle Owen? or maybe Obi Wan?

Jon.

My guess goes on luke all the way *twisted*

[The Middleman]

I hope it's Uncle Owen. We have enough Lukes.

[Bloke]

more likely a peach luke *devil*

[jonfett]

Possibly Uncle Owen? or maybe Obi Wan?

Jon.

My guess goes on luke all the way *twisted*

Oh, I kinda assumed that we would have Luke and that the we could get "another male figure" Obi or Owen.

But you are right, we will most likely get Luke, which wont be too bad as this is the first peach one!

Jon.

[Jipay]

Come on who can reasonably have enough luke ? :D But yeah owen would make sense in this set

[snefroe]

technic links are quite expensive and numerous. so the entire design might be rather simple (plates instead of bricks) in favor of a more complex undercarriage. it should also be large, why otherwise use links instead of rubber?

can't wait to see this... :oo

any thought on when there will be a picture?

[sam89]

It says 'the movie', though, not 'the movies'.

Hmm, good point. Maybe the other two are MINIs then, like you said.

[Jipay]

My guess is that : not now :-D Technic links can explain the number of piecesit can easely take 200 of those to make good 'wheels'

[sam89]

We might see it at Celebration III, but that's at the end of April. Hopefully pics will leak out earlier.

[stan]

There are at least 14 sets known to be coming out in 2005.

Tie fighter and shuttle, out already.

The 10 ROTS sets that are known of in april.

and Death star 2 and Sandcrawler.

The missing 2 to make 12 ROTS sets could be 7253 and 7254.

[sam89]

That's quite likely. I doubt we'll get any more System ROTS sets this year though (10 is a lot), so they'll probably just be MINIs.

[Jipay]

if only it could leak here :')

[David85]

Only 10?

For $150 I want at least 15 minifigs.

[stan]

I don't know?

If it is 7253 and 7254 i recon it will probably be system sets.

They usually release minis in sets of 4 in a seires of numbers.

Maybe its 2 more system sets.

In 2000 19 sets were released and in 2002 a massive 26 sets were released, and this is a massive year for star wars with ROTS so maybe we will get a lot more sets.

[Jipay]

CC contained less than 10 and people bought the set :-D

[Darkkazmo]

Great, what I have wished for is becoming a reality.

I'm looking forward to it anxiously. :oD

[xwingyoda]

Want Jawas :-D Need Jawas *sing* 3 is a little disappointing but we will finally have this set!!!!!

By the way, will there be a piece of scenery like in the Xwing version2 (like moisterisers...)? This will be sweet for MOCs!!

Don't want to wait for pics *devil*

[DoubleT]

Well I think it will be Luke, it will be the first of him in peach :)

[xwingyoda]

Well I think it will be Luke, it will be the first of him in peach :)

No more Lukes, especially in peach *devil*

Bring more Jawas!!!!!!!!

[dunamis]

Let
