LEGO Star Wars 2009 Sets and Rumours

[Pirate Pete]

Is it just me, or is this really getting off topic?

ON TOPIC: As many of you have already said, the new September 10th aniversary set most likely will be a remake of the old cloud city set. I mean, come on, how obvious can they be? "Clouded in mystery"?

[-JD-]

If it is a Cloud City set, I really hope there will be a Pod Car with Lobot. A new Lando would be good too, and a limb printed Boba would be sweet! I wonder if they will make it so it is below $/£100... That would be great because the best sets so far have been over £150.

Greetings,

JD

EDIT: I wonder if there will be a small battlepack like Echo Base to go with Cloud City!

My feelings says it´s the Tantive IV (playset or normal UCS) and we get our Cloud City remake in september 2010 or as 100 bucks + set in the regular summer wave.

I can already imagine the box art. One or two Cloud City rooms in the bottom right corner with big walls and a door, in the upper left corner a big landing platform and a Cloud car speeding towards the viewer.

God, this has to be a set!

Which includes who? The little pig engineer guys?

That would be quite cool actually. I was thinking more Bespin Guard sort of thing.

[SWMAN]

So when is the next toy show?, maybe we will find out then or just before it.

Probably the biggest toy show in the US next to the Toy Fair. The San Diego Comic-Con is July 23-26. Hasbro in particular loves to show off their second-half of the year line as well as the 2010 stuff. And I think that Lego shows some stuff too.

Bleah...

That is such a good point. Don´t like it though, but probably thats how it will be.

They will give us the RBR in Chicago, and this mystery set later on.

Had hoped really much that we would see both now in Chicago.

Did LEGO ever reveal anything new on a Comic-Con? I only remember real gold 3POs and silver 3PO raffle and Millenium Falcon first production run raffle.

I guess they will release Cloud City when TESB has its 30th anniversary, next year.

[legofactory]

i don't think they will release cloud city again for the 10th anniversary thing. Remeber the TRU voting thing? The mon calamari crusier and arrest of emperor palpaentine won. They made the crusier already so next up would be arrest of emperor palpaentine lego.

Good way to get 4 jedi and palpatine !!!

Let me make that more LEGO accurate with a possible S@H description

The ultimate battle!

Jedi Master Mace Windu finds out the truth about Chancellor Palpatine and runs off to arrest him. But even with Kit Fisto will he defeat Palpatine?

-Includes: Mace Windu, Chancellor Palpatine, Kit Fisto and Anakin Skywalker!

-Throw Mace out the window with Palpatine!

- Includes Palpatine's office and window!

-Limited Edition!

On the New Zealand lego S@H website they have listed the new wave sets; although they dont have pictures of them.

unfortunately the home one, millennium falcon and pirate tank arent up on there though

[ILikePi]

Nice find.

I hope that this means that the SW sets will start appearing in stores around the world soon.

"The fifth and final set is still clouded in mystery. LEGO Ambassadors were contacted in January 2008 with a request for fan imput into a second fans' choice. The LEGO company plans to reveal the identity of this new set-which undoubtedly will be as exciting and iconic as the rest of the line-in August, 2009 prior to its retail release in September."

In this quote, it says "into a second fans' choice".

The one with Palpys arrest and Home One, was that first or second?

Do anyone recall which sets was included in both of these fan inputs?

Please step forward and enlighten all of us.

[DarthSion]

Ah cloud city with Master Kota Starkiller and some ughnougts, jet stormies, maybe the purple and or black royal guards.

The fist one was held by TRU, and the home one won. The secound was held by the ambassadors on forums (including here), of which the Titantive IV won.

Simple

Not a problem. The RBR is 10198 at a guess. Secound for the TRU poll was the arrest of palpie, but as for secound of the other one, i'm not sure, prehaps a naboo crusier, i know that was fairly common.

So no arrest of Palipitne set sorry. But there's still hope for a new cloud city as the 2010 ESB set.

What on earth would the arrest of Palatine be, Palatine, Anakin Mace and a chair?.

[hollisbrick]

I hope if (when) they release cloud city the sell them in smaller sets like Jabba's place. So us poorer people can just get the rooms we want or something like that

[Navy Trooper Fenson]

What on earth would the arrest of Palatine be, Palatine, Anakin Mace and a chair?.

In the TRU description, they said that it would be Palpis office with Palpatine and the four Jedi and not only Kit and Mace.

But I think that this will stay a dream because I can´t imagine a working picture for the box (also the Home One set doesn´t look good on its box...).

[Millacol88]

What on earth would the arrest of Palatine be, Palatine, Anakin Mace and a chair?.

Palpatine, Anakin, Mace, Kit Fisto, Agen Kolar, Saessae Tiin, office, windows, force lightning, and a chair.

[DarthSion]

Ah i see, sounds interesting.

[Pate-keetongu]

Summer sets have arrived to Finland, about two months before real release date. I bought Echo base, what is very nice sets indeed. There is also contest were you can win Battle of Endor or Vader's TIE advanced.

I though the sets are now out across Europe? They appear to be on Shop@home anyway.

[-JD-]

They don't appear on UK S@H. I need those sets!
