CommanderCody77 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Well spoken KimT.Umm. Is there any news on the pirate tank. I really like it. Im not sure why but it looks awsome and a really good set to get Obi-wan cheap in. No there hasn't bee any news about the Pirate Tank or the MSMF so they will probably be Limited editions Quote
CloneMe Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 No there hasn't bee any news about the Pirate Tank or the MSMF so they will probably be Limited editions Bummer. Cause that always means their gonna cost more than they should. Quote
The Who Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Bummer. Cause that always means their gonna cost more than they should. Not always, but most of the time yes. The Falcon might not be an exclusive, or at least I don't think that it will be. Also, I just remembered some good news. We have all heard of the Lego Star Wars, The Visual Dictionary, right? Well, we now know for sure that when it is released on September 21st in the U.S, it will be $14.95. The biggest picture I have seen is on the frontpage of www.JediNews.com/ It will come with an exclusive figure too!! Unfortunately, it looks like, as KimT would say, the "Duke." (Luke Skywalker) Quote
Tinn-man Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) That IS Luke Skywalker as an exclusive (bottom left hand corner). Now is he in his Bespin, Dagobah, or Yavin suit ? ... EDIT: Go Here for a zoom image. And it says.....minifigure image not final...great But it says it is Luke, and it must be a new design. Can't wait for this. . I knew lego wouldn't release a ton of OT set without a Luke minifig. Edited March 24, 2009 by Tinn-man Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 It looks like he is wearing a coat. I cant figure it out. Quote
Oky Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) A book and an exclusive fig for $14? Sounds like a good deal! Even though the fig is not supposed to be final, it looks pretty good already. Nothing all too special, though. Edited March 24, 2009 by Oky Wan Kenobi Quote
Darth Legolas Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 A book and an exclusive fig for $14? Sounds like a good deal! For some reason, I don't think that that's Luke, though. Couldn't it be that it is some EU character? It looks like it's definitely Luke, but I have no clue what outfit he's in. Quote

Can't wait for this. . I knew lego wouldn't release a ton of OT set without a Luke minifig. Thanks. Last time I saw that Amazon page, they did not have a picture. It has to be a new design, if it is Exclusive. I just wonder if there will be a limited supply, because I really want one. I still want the book though, as it should be very useful. And I notice they used a standard Wookiee to represent Chewbacca. Quote
Tinn-man Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 A book and an exclusive fig for $14? Sounds like a good deal! For some reason, I don't think that that's Luke, though. Couldn't it be that it is some EU character? Ok, please refer to the link in my post above, click to zoom feature, and zoom in on the lower right hand corner of the book. It says exclusive LUKE SKYWALKER minifigure . (Not trying to be rude, just informative ) Quote
darkrebellion Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) This new Visual Dictionary really looks better than I think . When I heard about this I think it will be something pretty random but seems like they do a great job. Also I can´t wait to see the exclusive minifig. I really want an Ep. IV Ceremonial Luke Skywalker but I will be happy if it is simply an EXCLUSIVE minifig and not just other minifigs parts put together or a fleshy update of an old Luke minifig. EDIT: Wow I just spotted the first mistake they make with this dictionary . If you zoom the pic enough you can clearily see that they call the Wookiee Warriror minifig "Chewbacca". I just hope they don Edited March 24, 2009 by darkrebellion Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Is this book being put out by LEGO? If not, then there probably will be many mistakes. Also did you notice that the vader on the front is the battle damaged one? Bad choice if you ask me, the new one would be better. Do you think it will have the chrome minifigs in it? Quote
Derek Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) Has anyone cared to note the "Minifigure Image not Final?" That book seems like a steal, and I hope it will be like the fantastic Lego DK book from the 90's (which I proudly got from a dollar store ). And, I don't have a Luke figure, and I don't plan on buying any sets with him in it before September. I am pretty excited for this book! Edited March 25, 2009 by darthperson Quote
CloneMe Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 It looks like he is wearing a coat. I cant figure it out. If you ask me that is an Anakin from episode 3. Just with a tanish outfit. Its obviously not completed yet. Quote
SWMAN Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Agreed.Stop yakkin away about nothing. This is a news topic and is meant for news only. Bitchsyfwkiyhfg about prices and availability belongs somewhere else. Either that or you're going to "Take a Break" Didn't mean to get so off topic. Just kind of came up. Quote
Lt. Veers Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 The "exclusive figure" seems to resemble Luke from the Award Ceremony on Yavin 4 at the end of Episode IV. (In my opinion) Quote
ILikePi Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) A book and an exclusive fig for $14? Sounds like a good deal! Even though the fig is not supposed to be final, it looks pretty good already. Nothing all too special, though. Actually, the book is $14 if you preorder it. The normal price is going to be $22. Does anyone know if DK LEGO books are released in bookstores, or only online? Is this book being put out by LEGO? If not, then there probably will be many mistakes. Also did you notice that the vader on the front is the battle damaged one? Bad choice if you ask me, the new one would be better. Do you think it will have the chrome minifigs in it? The book probably won't be sold by LEGO. I think that it's only going to be availiable on Amazon and possibly at bookstores. I also hope that Luke's lightsaber (from the dictionary) is going to be chrome, because I currently don't have any. I also don't have a Luke minfigure. Edited March 25, 2009 by ILikePi Quote
CommanderCody77 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 The "exclusive figure" seems to resemble Luke from the Award Ceremony on Yavin 4 at the end of Episode IV. (In my opinion) Yeah it does look like that but I think it might be a jedi robe because it said "Minifgure not final" Quote
ForceMaster Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 M-m-m, nice dictionary! Can't wait to see this!) But, possibly, the dictionary will contain many discrepancies. Now everyone wookie is called as Chewbacca? And, exclusive fugure! Maybe, Bespin Luke? Or Dagobah? He is with a lightsaber, means one of two variants. Quote
Bricks Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I really look forward to this 'must-buy' book! And it's a really great idea that the book will contain an exklusive minifigure... I hope that this book will be also in Europe for sale. 'Bricks' Quote
Drock Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 A great mystery that minifigure is. The hair makes it seem like it's from the original movie, but he shouldn't have a lightsaber? Maybe they just gave him one for the coolness factor. Can we get a ceremony Leia? Quote
Lt. Veers Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Yeah it does look like that but I think it might be a jedi robe because it said "Minifgure not final" True. Very true. But I'm allowed to hope, aren't I? Quote
CloneMe Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I dont mean to be rude or affend anybody but what are you guys smoking. If you look in the zoomed in image you can clearly tell it is an anakin from episode 3. Which means we will have no clue what Luke it is for a while. Quote

Well excuuuuusssssseeeee me for having my own opinions! And if you look even closer, you'll clearly see Luke Skywalker printed. Also, the face/hair are of the same kind that are in the UCS Falcon and Death Star. Quote

I think in the circle around the fig, it says Luke Skywalker, doesn't it? Quote
CloneMe Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I think in the circle around the fig, it says Luke Skywalker, doesn't it? Yes but it also says minifigure not final. Its clearly an anakin there just putting there just to have a fig there and who knows. Maybe the Luke will resemble this Anakin. Quote
