Hopefully the new sets come out before Christmas in the U.S. like they did last year.

Yeah, there are silver printings on all the torsos. I've seen how some peoples minifigs has lost all their silver/gold printing and that's very sad I, on the other hand, has never had any problem with that (and I don't exactly take extra good of my minifigs). I'm working on a review right now so you might see it up on the site in a few days (depending how well the grading goes in the Academy ).

EDIT: Just saw that DarkFader had made a review while I was out buying my set

I have one redcoat that lost his gold and Ahsokas saber is now just gray Mace's saber was better but handle is fully gray now- i didn't do anything special for them actually Ahsokas saber was destroyed when i put it in her hand and take it of- silver just rustled away...

Chris from Reasonably Clever has been busy by the looks of it on flickr.

8084 Snowtrooper Battle Pack on Flickr

If this is not in the right topic, Svelte or another regulator please move it to the right topic thanks.

I am away from EB a little more than 24 houers and comes back in hewre and a gazillion new posts have been made!!

Thanks to all who found pics and scanned and took photos and all.

I need a houer or more to catch up now.

Really really great news out there!!

Hopefully the new sets come out before Christmas in the U.S. like they did last year.

It may be dangerously close in time, but they always come to ToysRus in time!

They're already at TRUs in the US! Chris from Reasonably Clever bought the two battle packs and 8085 Freeco Speeder. You can see the pics here, here, and here (no deeplinking this time, I'm tired from doing the Ben 10, Atlantis, and City sets that he bought ).

Also, people have found the other sets.

The freeco speeder with the new monster figure looks awesome !

I, too, was at my local TRU today, and literally emptied my wallet because I couldn't resist buying all of the new Star Wars sets... and Atlantis. I don't really buy Legos in excess, I pick and choose, but now have a complete collection in both (including the Atlantis impulse)... and I am very deeply in debt. I just had my christmas today.

I haven't had time to open all open all of them, but the BP's are definitely worth buying. The rebel helmets are a little off though. And the ARC-170 is fantastic! I'll post pictures if I have the time... or if I don't have to sell my camera to pay off my shopping spree.

Rants aside, does anyone think that the Landspeeder and the Swamp Speeder could be some sort of pair set? As in they both have 5 minifigs, and could both potentially be $25? Just a thought.

The freeco speeder is AWESOME and at least we can all tell that this is CW for sure !

On shopping list YES !

Also, people have found the other sets.

Please tell me that includes the Landspeeder. I don't know if I should Sharpie out the pupils. They'll fit0in but be permanently ruined.

If you spray the head with Axe Bodyspray, the sharpie wipes right off.

I thought the chinstrap was supposed to be connected on the Rebel headgear in the battlepack. It looks kind of weird with the space there.

Well I am betting we will have a new force unleashed set this year as they just announced TFU2 for next year.

Definatley looking forward for the swarm speeder and luke's landspeeder. Hope its not too overprice here in Canada though.

Interisting thought, but, sadly I doubt it.

Thats nice to hear TFU2 is coming out!

Tons of people are getting the first wave...I feel so left out!

The Rebel helmets do look kinda large now, but I still like them!

You mean the Anakin right? The talz are no monsters but sympatethic beings

Hey cool- haven't heard but what will happen in that really- Starkiller is dead But i believe no TFU is coming in lego anymore

I dont think they will make a new set for the next TFU game. Sure the game is a big success but I dont think that the game is that easily transferable into a set. There has to be a significant ship in the game and interesting characters for it to become lego.

I like how anakin has a double sided head. I prefer the side with the goggles and scarf. I prefer the new ordinary anakin face to the old one.

Well it would be cool, in the preview Starkiller fights this huge thing that looks like an ape crossed with a rancor, and he has 2 blue lightsabers, tell me Starkiller with 2 sabers wouldn't be cool.

I think they would, they made one for the first game.

it is green it is not human- It must be Greedo!

I have the old trifighter- nice little set- strangely enough clone has the head of Zev Senesca? also he has normal tiny eyes- ROTS set again?!- but what the Kit Fisto is doing in arc? Jag was the one that killed Plo Koon -Kit Fisto was dead already... should have three pilots and Kit as an extra with hangarpit or some maintenance car thingy like old sets always had

I think that when it comes to minor characters, TLG has a "Meh, close enough" attitude. Wedge Antilles, one of the most popular EU and canon characters came out having an incredibly generic head. Their helmets should be enough to differentiate them and while Kit is in a ROTS set, I'm sure we'll have a CW episode featuring that very 'scene' with him flying shotgun. Many were disappointed with the lack of 3 pilots, I just hope they release at least another set with clone pilots so we can give them a 'full crew' like a rereleased V-Wing.

And I agree about Anakin's mask. They should have left it blank. Now he looks like he has a Homer Simpson beard.

TLC more than likely will not release another TFU set. Even though a new game of it is coming out it, TLC will probably pick over that and choose another CW set . However TLC has surprised us just this week with a set we did not even think off so it could happen.

He's not dead.

Seems like he somehow survived (which is good as the ending was awful) and is now struggling to choose between the dark side and the light.

I'm not sure we'll see anymore sets though, there's not all that much they can do with it.

Although a Marris Brood minifig with the lightsaber tonfas would be pretty cool.

I really don't want to buy that stuff just for that purpose. I don't use it. I'm worried that it'd damage the printing too.

Sorry for being off-topic.

Is there any confirmation yet that Luke and Ben have the same faces as in the UCS MF or Death Star? For me they could be new, judging from the pic on amazon.de. (I know that some people here don't like that others care a lot about this, I am sorry but I do. Collecting since 99. Thanks!)

Can't we get a new thread for this whole damn eye thing.

Yes that is right- best Wedge will be that soldier head from indy-sets (same one as the imperial officer in new bp ) And without helmet he could have Mutt's hair- that is my custom Wedge since i got Mutt Williams now- still they should have done new head for imperial officer- that one is neutral but i would like to see older man like Tarkin or Veers- with evil-looking smile in his face at least they should do Donovan for Indy with head that look like Julian Glover would do for Veers with that new body:laugh:

Yeah I saw the trailer- but i strongly disagree - i loved the ending of the Force Unleashed - absolutely epic- unfortunately i see that sequel would only ruin the story - but if it is a good game that don't matter much (perhaps little more diversity for Game play- vehicles, fighters?- possibility to use blasters and rockets as well as saber and force like in the Jedi Outcast/Academy) Unfortunately there probably will not be much changes- just more Starkillering- now in more jedi way though- but new bosses new planets and more of that awesome fun- and She is "Maris Brood"- don't matter to me but it is how her name is spelled -we had a tiny argument about spelling here some time ago

Can't we get a new thread for this whole damn eye thing.

Well this has become massive

We were never debating the Freeco. The Freeco is only CW. Everything else is ROTS.

Well I am betting we will have a new force unleashed set this year as they just announced TFU2 for next year.

And what does that have to do with Lego? We'll probably never see another TFU set again.
