Big Cam Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 You mean Bomber, Advanced x1, droid TIE or fighter? Whoops, slip of the hand, I actually meant Tie Interceptor, my brain and fingers didn't agree. Quote
Oky Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 With every pic I see of the ARC and Tri-Fighter, I get more excited for them. The sets look much more accurate than their old versions, and that rocket droid commander is pretty sweet. I really hope that the fact that he has printing means that TLC starts printing BDs again. I didn't like the unprinted ones in the new MTT too much. The Freeco is a bit of a disappointment for me. The Talz fig's head is apparently one piece, so it wont see much use outside of recreations of that one CW episode because of that feather piece. And whereas TLG made a new cockpit piece for the Atlantis sets, they apparently couldn't be bothered to make a more accurate one for this speeder. The ones in the show are completely enclosed whereas this one only covers the top half. Other than that it looks like a neat set, and I will probably buy it eventually, especially if Anakin has a new facial expression and/or a republic insignia on his coat. The defender still doesn't interest me one bit, but it's good to see the new pilot helmet being used for the TIE pilot. Keep the pics coming! Quote
baby Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 I've seen the battle pack pictures from Amazon Japan, but they are still blurry. Rebel Battle Pack Snow Trooper Battle Pack Quote
Torax Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 ......but I would have liked the talz without a little hole at the top of the head to fit on the head dress. ... How do we know the head decoration piece doesn't come off, like the clone troopers' antennae? Quote
ILikePi Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 I've seen the battle pack pictures from Amazon Japan, but they are still blurry.Rebel Battle Pack Snow Trooper Battle Pack That's the clearest picture so far of the Rebel Trooper Battle Pack! Thanks! The vehicle isn't as great as I hoped, but I'll still be getting it because battle packs are all about the minifigs. Quote
Oky Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) I've seen the battle pack pictures from Amazon Japan, but they are still blurry.Rebel Battle Pack Like Pi said, that's still better than what we have seen so far. So thanks! I'll deeplink it for everyone to see: Looks like the Rebel pilot comes with the same head as the clone pilot in the ARC-170 with a visor printed on his face. That's a good thing IMO. And just for the record (aka. the first post) here's the Imp. BP: Edited November 19, 2009 by Oky Wan Kenobi Quote
Jar Jar Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Looks like the Rebel pilot comes with the same head as the clone pilot in the ARC-170 with a visor printed on his face. That's a good thing IMO. Wait a minute, if it's the same head as the ARC pilots, won't that mean it's ROTS since OT uses dot eyes. Quote
Oky Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Wait a minute, if it's the same head as the ARC pilots, won't that mean it's ROTS since OT uses dot eyes. Of course it does, and I hope this will end the whole silly discussion about whether the ARC and Tri Fighter are based on the CW or Ep.III. The ARC and Tri Fighter are Phase 2. The Clone Wars series is Phase 1, and there is no sign of that changing anytime soon. Period. Quote
RileyC Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Do I see new rebel helmets? These pictures are a lot better than the last ones. The Rebel vehicle doesn't look that great but I don't reall mind. Quote
filip skywalker Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Wait a minute, if it's the same head as the ARC pilots, won't that mean it's ROTS since OT uses dot eyes. Wait a moment, am I the only one who can see the black band under the pilots chin? As on regular rebel troopers? Quote
CommanderFox Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) How do we know the head decoration piece doesn't come off, like the clone troopers' antennae? That would be very nice if it did! I really hope the Defender comes with a stand. The new pics of the BPs look Great! The Rebel one is looking like a Deffenert MUST buy for me CommanderFox Edited November 19, 2009 by CommanderFox Quote
Oky Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Do I see new rebel helmets? Yes, the same one of which there was a pic of many pages back from the visual dictionary. The Rebel vehicle doesn't look that great but I don't reall mind. Yeah, but at least it's canon. Wait a moment, am I the only one who can see the black band under the pilots chin? As on regular rebel troopers? Maybe the helmet of the ARC pilots covers up that chin strap? Or maybe it's the same face, but without the strap. Either way, the ARC pilots have dot eyes. I'm sure of it. Edited November 19, 2009 by Oky Wan Kenobi Quote
CommanderFox Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Do I see on the farthest rebel a new helmet? looks like it has that cloth that Luke uses to cover his mouth in ESB. Can someone help with this? Thanks CommanderFox Edited November 19, 2009 by CommanderFox Quote
KimT Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 First post updated with new pics. Quote
CommanderFox Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 First post updated with new pics. Hey Kim, couldn't you just please "by accident" post some pics of the CTT and the other sets we haven't seen pics of yet? Can't wait to see the CTT pics, the emperrors shuttle and Plos fighter pics. CommanderFox Quote
KimT Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 Nope, as mentioned I don't have any pics of them. I was just allowed to have a short look in a retailer's catalog. She wouldn't allow me to take pics or borrow the catalog. Quote
Bobskink Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Anybody know what that greens ymbol, drawing is on the side of the box? One more thing I noticed, the rebels have dark legs on the battle scene on the box, but white legs on the lower left image on the box. BTW, the speeder or cannon, whatever it is, that comes with the rebbel battle pack must be the ugliest one so far we had with a battle bad, but like a certain person said before, who cares.

ADHO15 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Whoops, slip of the hand, I actually meant Tie Interceptor, my brain and fingers didn't agree. Trust it to be the one I forget. Do I see on the farthest rebel a new helmet? looks like it has that cloth that Luke uses to cover his mouth in ESB. Can someone help with this? Thanks I think the helmet is the same on all of them: the one we saw in the visual dictionary, as Oky said. It might be a new head or accessory, though. One more thing I noticed, the rebels have dark legs on the battle scene on the box, but white legs on the lower left image on the box. That might be the 'Rebel Commander', who may have different legs. These BPs look great! I'll definitely get at least one of each. Edited November 19, 2009 by ADHO15 Quote
Ras 74 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 I meant Plo's fighter and Palpys shuttle, haven't heard a lot about those... Plo´s fighter pretty much is the same as Anakins and Ahsoka's one in dark blue and white. The Shuttle pretty much is the one seen in Ep. III from the end of the film where Palpy looks and find a wounded Anakin. They both will be nice to have I think Quote
DutchRebel Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 So cool that the Hoth Rebels have the helmets from the visual dictionary! I was definately hoping for it, but somehow didn't expect it. The orange visors printed on the faces is a great solution I think, I'm doing the same with orange marker myself... I even created my own Republic pilot helmet from a rebel pilot helmet (top), combined with a stormtrooper helmet (bottem).... should 've been more patient ;-) Both battle packs and ARC are on my list!

III from the end of the film where Palpy looks and find a wounded Anakin. They both will be nice to have I think Is it more like Anakin's or Ahsoka's? (Vulture or no vulture) Does that mean it won't include the CW Palpatine, but a new one? Quote
howl.bricks Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Hello everyone! im new here, and i would just like to ask, is Palpy's shuttle the one that looks like this ? Theta-class T-2 shuttle If it is, im going to buy this whatever the cost Although, i have been trying to make a MOC of this ship, but i just never had the pieces :cry sad: Quote
ADHO15 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Hello everyone!im new here, and i would just like to ask, is Palpy's shuttle the one that looks like this ?

Hope you enjoy it here. I'm pretty sure that will be the ship. That seemed to be what Ras74 was describing earlier. Quote
howl.bricks Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Thanks for the welcome, ADHO15 Does anyone have the prelims pics, maybe box art yet ? Any other confirmed minifigs(besides palpy, of course) ? Anyways, i dont think this set is coming out with the january wave, or is it? Quote
Ras 74 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Is it more like Anakin's or Ahsoka's? (Vulture or no vulture) Does that mean it won't include the CW Palpatine, but a new one? About Vulture I don´t remember really. The pics ar small, so to spot Palpy is hard.But my guess is it could be a new one since a Anakin in pain will be with it as well i would just like to ask, is Palpy's shuttle the one that looks like this ? Theta-class T-2 shuttle I'm pretty sure that will be the ship. That seemed to be what Ras74 was describing earlier.That would be the ship yes. You are so right ADHO15! Didn´t have time to look it up before.This is why I like to have all you ´real SW nerds´ around here @ howl.bricks:Read some more before you ask alot of questions please. KimT just said a few posts back that there are no pictures yet. Go here to find out when the sets will be released (August is the answer though ) Quote
