Darth Legolas Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 We know it isn't the white fireman jetpack. That wouldn't work. But it won't be brickbuilt if it turns out to be square. It can't be a flat 2x2 tile in case you haven't noticed the little engine sticking out of the back. But I still think those pictures were older, seeing as they matched up with the pictures from the retailers catalog where Nute Gunray was still a white blob! Not to mention the different contents of the Endor battle. Quote
Bricks Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 alsonar pointed to these in the "Star Wars sets anyone?"-topic:Adult Watches on S@H: -Pictures are above- Thanks for that information! They look really awesome, but it's a shame that they didn't contain a minifigure Prices: 29.99€ 24.99 GBD 59.99 AUD We know it isn't the white fireman jetpack. That wouldn't work.

Well we will see it, unless we get new pictures. But I stay still to my thoughts! Greetings 'Bricks' Quote
Millacol88 Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Well starting to think about that Slave 1 could have had Boba Fett printed, Landa Calrissian, Lobot (flesh), and some ugnaughts I doubt it. The slave 1 came a distant third in the voting, and even if Legolas is right, and they end up releasing all three at some point, I think its more likely we will see Lando in the MF being released later this year. They haven't done an ROTJ version yet. However, I think the MF will be released towards the end of this year, so we probably won`t know for sure until about June/July when we might see some pictures. However, I don`t want to rule it out, as all those minifigures in one set would be pretty cool, and they have only done one real cloud city set in the past. A fleshie Lobot would be awesome as well.

The Crazy One Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) We established that it wouldn't be those because the helmets don't go on when the troopers are wearing them.I'm not sure which are older or newer. It isn't the first time TLG has given us a brick-built jetpack, there was an unusual one in the Clone Turbo Tank. The boxes in the Toy Fair pics were definitely preliminary but that doesn't mean they're older. I'm confused! I asuming that there were two sets of pics, the really prelminary ones , and then the more finalized ones. The fact we saw the more finalized ones first doesn't mean they are older, probably someone came across them first. I think the ones at the Toy Fair were probably the prelimanry ones because if you compare the pictures, you see the TF ones have detail and parts taken away from them ( which were in the more finalized pics ) and that leads to the question , ' Why would TLC take things away from a perfectly good set? ' , so i think that the more finalized ones are more reliable. Of course i could be completely wrong ( which always happens to me ) , but i just gave you my theory. EDIT : If you could understand it. It would be a shame if we had a brick build jet pack, it would be two big and un detailed. Edited February 1, 2009 by The crazy one Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Oh my! OT and CW fans! Calm down! The both of you! Can't Luke get a long with Anakin? He did in the end! And someone had said that even though Home One won, TLG still plans on making the other two. I think that's a load of rubbish. Why would they have the contest if they were to make the sets anyway? Why make a PT set when their in the middle of CW and OT only? Also, why in the world would we need another Slave I if the one from 2006 was already such a big hit? Would you buy the same set practically over again just because it came with a dark bley hexagon with some flashy lights and maybe one extra minifig? No Home One for me. I could always just buy Ackbar's head on bricklink. And if there's no Ackbar, guess what Lego? No sell!!!! I can bet that if Home One has no Ackbar, then just about everyone here will be complaining. In fact, no one would buy the set without Ackbar. Why would you buy a square hangar with an A wing and two random smiley face Rebel Pilots? To the Home One set: You're totally right, Darth Legolas! If the Home One set doesn't come with an Ackbar minifig then nobody would buy it (like with the Hoth set: when TLG wouldn't have included a Tauntaun in this set I never would buy it since I buy it only for the Tauntaun). But I'm sure that TLG knows that and because of this I'm even sure that they'll include an Achbar minifig in this set. But I even think that they'll make the control room much bigger and much more realistic than in the "B-Wing at Rebel Control Center" set. And since we saw that the Endor set is absolutely amazing we only can hope that Home One will it be, too. To the Slave 1 and Palpatine's Arrest set: I only can remember that someone found this sets listed on wikipedia/wookiepedia/what so ever. So that doesn't say anything. And I even doubt it since we'll already be getting a lot of sets. But if TLG releases a new Slave 1 I highly will doubt it since I didn't buy the version from 2006! Klaus-Dieter Quote
-JD- Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) What I will get: Droid Tank-x3 Hoth-x2 Endor Bunker-x1 Venator-x2 Sep. Shuttle-x2 Definately no Y-Wing, it looks rubbish. Edited February 1, 2009 by Jammiedodger714 Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) Thank you very much for the pics of the new watches, KimT, and for the price information, Bricks! The only watch which looks nice is the one with the Stormstrooper on it. But the others are not the money worth. Don't take this as offensive but: Does TLG really think that we AFOLs will buy and wear these watches?! Well starting to think about that Slave 1 could have had Boba Fett printed, Landa Calrissian, Lobot (flesh), and some ugnaughts If TLG releases a Slave 1 this or next year then they surely won't include Lando in this set since he supposably appears in the MF. A fleesh Lobot would be cool. But imo he would fit much better in a new version of a Twin Pod Cloud Car - or even better - in a bigger and more detailed version of the Cloud City! I think that I already mentioned this before: I highly doubt whether we'll be seeing the Palpatine's Arrest set and the Slave 1 set as sets of this year. But - like it was written down on bricki/wiki/what so ever (please correct me if I'm wrong) - these two sets might already appear in late December this year. This consequently would mean that they aren't count to this year's sets but already to next year's sets. That's only a thought. Klaus-Dieter Edited February 1, 2009 by Klaus-Dieter Quote
Commander Flash Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Printed Boba That would be the absolute only way i would buy the slave 1. I already have the 2006 one. Quote
Bricks Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Printed Boba That would be the absolute only way i would buy the slave 1. I already have the 2006 one. Please people, we already now that the winner of T'r'U poll is the Mon-Calamari set (Home-One). Like CopMike said after a while ago. So why beginning an discussion about an set, who isn't confirmed? 'Bricks' Quote
JimBee Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Looks like som of us guessed right about that Tauntaun. Oh, shut up. Why does the Separatists Shuttle those figs? In the show it has Ani and Oby which I would have prefered Would you rather have figures that we get in every other set, or ones that we've always wanted, and never gotten before? And I think it's safe to say that the Mon Calamari Cruiser won the poll. Hopefully it will be the full ship, rather than an A-Wing and a control room. Quote
Legoman Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 And I think it's safe to say that the Mon Calamari Cruiser won the poll. Hopefully it will be the full ship, rather than an A-Wing and a control room. It's already CONFIRMED by an offical sorce HOME ONE WON It's an A-Wing and a control center. Not the whole ship. Quote
KimT Posted February 1, 2009 Author Posted February 1, 2009 Mkay. Quit the "I am sooo getting this and that" & speculations and wishes are meant to be in the "Future Star Wars sets"-topic. Let's keep this simple and discuss the upcoming sets, the pics and any reliable rumors. Lay off the "I-wish-they'd-do-a-whatever-set-fig-brick"... Quote
Legoman Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 Are there even any romours still left? Everything's already confirmed or dismissed isn't it? I Wonder how the falcon will come out? I'd like to see how lego pulls off a mid-scale falcon Quote
