I had no idea there was a Canadian Toy Fair! :tongue: It's too bad they didn't have a GG fig or Slave 1 there. The CTT looks better than I expected though :classic: I just love Palpatine's Shuttle, although the colours should be even instead of random spots of white.

And i thought only the US and UK has toy fair. :grin: Can't belive Canada has one too and pictures revealed were much better than the UK one

New pictures look awesome!

Wampa Cave looks good but nothing we haven't seen before. Plo Koon's Starfighter looks nice and I cant wait to have the three starfighters all together which is the main attraction to me besides Plo Koon. I know its a prelim but I hope the change to a blue lightsabre. Slave 1 looks like nothing has changed but the background shot of Bossk looks really really good and I hope his head is made out of the same stuff of Mon Calamari heads.

Grievous' Starfighter looks really cool and pretty big as well. Nahdar's torso looks pretty good and Im glad we are getting more Mon Calamari's. The Droid looks average I just hope he improves a bit but the new pieces should be good for other things. It doesn't look like that cockpit piece is going away but its growing on me so it wont stop me from getting this beaut!

Emperor's Shuttle looks nice and doesn't look to plain which is really good. Vader's torso looks amazing and I cant wait to get him. Im guessing his helmet is for the medical table inside the shuttle like he is being fixed up which is weird because is helmet is the last thing you see go on him in ep III. The medical droid looks really cool and will be very versatile.

The CTT looks pretty big. It looks like there is a lot of room inside for troops but I just hope they don't do what they did in the AT OT/Dropship and have more seats than troops.The outside looks pretty detailed even without the panels on and it looks like the wheels have suspension which is a nice feature. Aayla looks very CW-ish and I like her head piece even though they haven't really finished on it. Cad Bane looks really awesome and his hat looks so cool and looks great with those pipes on his face. Its disappointing they weren't showing the AT-RT though.

Well, it's a bit of a disappointment that the General Grievous' Starfighter set had the prelim cockpit. I also don't really like the burned Darth Vader, I'd wanted a new helmet, but ever since the first prelim, that wasn't a possibility.

I've just thought of what Anakin might be standing on in the Clone Turbo Tank set. Maybe it's a board of some sort? I'm thinking of some sort of hovering thing.

The Scout trooper in one of the images is odd. That made me think... if the next setting of the line is going to be Endor, maybe we'll finally see Scout troopers in a cheap set, hopefully in a battle pack.

Thanks Kim for finding these for us and posting it here.

It is really great to finally see some more pictures.

I don´t get why you don´t put Hi-res pics out as well if you are the first one to have pictures.

Cheers for the pics!

OMG! Can't wait to get the Slave one. Or at least a bigger picture of the new Boba Fett. Best character in the whole SW universe. I think the Slave 1 will be the only ship i will have in my collection... Bossk - that's cool! I'm not sure if I buy the Wampa set or only the figs... anyway - great sets!

Posted

Thanks very much KimT :sweet:

I'm not sure what to think right now...

I get the feeling a lot of it is still preliminary-ish :sceptic:

Cad Bane looks good so far (except that he traded weapons with Aayla :grin: )

But man, that CTT is huge :oh: I'll never be able to fit that in my room :cry_sad:

That crazy med-droid that comes with General Grievous' starfighter looks a quite nice, and so does Nahdar Vebb (spellcheck?)

Can't wait to see Grievous himself though :classic:

Thanks again :thumbup:

Amen to that :thumbup:

This is an awesome wave!

Defs will get the Slave 1 :cry_happy:

I'll also get plo koon's ship, mainly for plo

I don't know if I'll get Grevious's fighter or not :sceptic: depends on how good the fig turns out I guess...

These all look quite nice but I think what the pictures show most clearly is that for events like Toy Fair, sets are being built by complete idiots. The medical droid`s legs are on backwards, that clone has the wrong helmet, Cad Bane and Aayla seem to have swapped weapons and what is Nahdar Vebb doing on Grievous` operating table?

They could at least send some competent people to these events, this way, TLG is making a mockery of themselves.

Once you see through that though, the new sets all seem pretty good. Bane is still in desperate need of a trenchcoat though.

Half these sets and figures are barely prelim

can't really judge how the finished articles will look

CTT looks dreadful - but it is missing about...well, it's taken a few hits from the droid army! Hope that interior gets decorated - it doesn't seem to feature much new, but like I said it's not even fully built

Ultimately these are all 'big' significant sets and should be great - I wanna see those final versions

My guess would even be that they took the plating of to show it better.

Thanks for the pictures :thumbup:

Wow!How much does the Wampa will cost?

You can see the latest information in the news topic, which KimT has recently updated. It says 49.99 EUR for the Wampa attack.

The people who display these Starwars sets arent fans like we are, which is something we have to accept.

It's like the S@H website; sometimes the sets are in the wrong subsection, CW versus classic.

I like the new sets.

The medical droid would have been better off with a new molded head though.

Bossk looks awesome as far as I can tell.

I wonder what head Anakin/Darth Vader has under that mask?! Cant tell from this picture of the box.

Now it's waiting for some more details on for instance the new Grievous.

Let's just hope the people of NY Toy Fair can build the sets properly, and give the figs the appropriate gear. :sceptic:

They've rarely messed up big, just a few missing pieces here and there.

I honestly think the reason the CTT was all mess up is so you could see inside, though I don't understand why they didn't have the outside even attatched.

I think these are pretty final, still some more work as we see the Wampa is back one stage, so the sets are further a long than that. If there's anything to change now, it will be very minor.

Thank God they fixed that cockpit!

There could be a method to this madness of Lego's at this toy fair. We are talking about it !

Then more talk about, and so forth.

The little mistakes, we are talking about them. The more talk, the more notice, the more the items are in people's minds and when they come out - buy - buy - buy ! People with buy them, Lego makes lots of cash and the cycle beings again for next year.

Now for something completely different, did anyone notice the snowspeeder had to position for the rear gunner, but seating space for Luke and maybe Han too !

I think also Cad Bane comes with a cape to act as a trench coat, correct me if I wrong.

I'm a conformist! ! :classic:

That really is horrible, Anakins tore outfit with Vaders mask is just dumb.

Don't worry, the set comes with a new minifig head for anakin, I've seen it hes yelling and you see his teeth, overall pretty angry. The helmet is just extra, Iguess for kids who can't tell who the character is.

Hate to repeat myself, but the cockpit hasn't changed - we've just got clearer pics (thanks KimT).

On the left is the original pic, blown up, on the right is the latest pic. If you look closely, you can see the original cockpit has 'shape' too.

Thanks for the pics KimT and Agent Orange. Interesting to see that AFOL's make up 25% of Lego purchases, now that is buying power as well as influence!

So very true my friend!

But to me it also shows that starting last year, and also this year, TLC must have listened to us and what we have wanted for so many years now.

We have gotten battlepacks with Hothtroopers, Snowtroopers, Endortroopers, Taun-Tauns, Wampa a new molded Grievious.

Lets say the list is just so long, and so awesome (TGIF brother)!

Yes TLG must have listened to you guys, and I must say have produced some Incredible sets! :thumbup::wub:

Thanks for that ref pic Rufus, I guess the older pic was just to blury to see how good the cockpit actually is. :sweet:
