MrTools Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Slave I looks super! The cockpit is clear for once too! Is that a sticker on the cockpit?However, I think there is too much reddish brown. I agree it seems to be too much reddish brown, however if i dont like it can exchange with my old slave one parts. Still this set i feel is going to be one of the best SW sets this year. Quote
sok117 Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Thank goodness people are starting to see the slave 1 in my eyes, this set is defiantly one to keep your eye out for, If there are things you don't like, just swap out pieces from the old one and make it the best of both worlds, the only thing that irks me is the minifig to price ratio, but if it has cool functions then I think I'll be okay, and besides the minifigs you get are INCREDIBLE new Boba and Han as well as brand new bossk, this is a must have.

baby Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Thanks for the great pictures!! The Slave 1 looks great. Where did you get this from. The carbonite looks really detailed and the colours are brilliant. Again thanks for the pictures From a blog, Link Bossk head still looks a bit like Greedo to me in the pictures. Quote
Brickus Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 I like the new Slave 1, I can't wait for better pictures though. Quote
Swash Buckler Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 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. R Cockpit is horrible but i'm getting that set for minifigs... Quote
SWMAN Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 I really like the new Slave I. While the base is a pretty bright red, the ship looks really detailed and I think the figures will be really nice. Quote

I've posted it three times, look at this picture: The box hasn't changed but the model has. And for clarification: Thank you. EDIT: One last huge image! Edited February 6, 2010 by Darth Legolas Quote

The built model is just lacking the opening mechanism that you can just make out in the box pictures (yellow). Quote

The built model is just lacking the opening mechanism that you can just make out in the box pictures (yellow). You just drew 5 green lines on a 3 sided shape, if you just pointed out the previous picture has 3 sides, and now you are drawing it with five sides and saying the images are the same, you are contradicting yourself. The box picture clearly has 3 sides, while the model has 5 and opens differently. You cannot possibly say the box image has a five sided cockpit, and if the second box picture had 5 sides, then you just proved yourself wrong. But the box pictures are exactly the same and the models are different. Just look at your own picture, 1,2,3, on the left side. Edited February 6, 2010 by Darth Legolas Quote

Err... no, my original post drew attention to the original pic (left) being exactly the same, just a lower quality pic. As to the box picture 'clearly' having 3 sides, believe what you want; I really don't think TLC would go to all the trouble of making a whole new mould just because a few EB members didn't like the first one. I suggest we agree to differ and kill this discussion before a Sith Lord does it for us. Quote

Okay, but I'm just going to say, the right side, high-quality pic still has three sides. It's almost like saying Lego changed the Wampa because I didn't like it. Lego always changed prototype molds, and if you go through history cockpits are often changed. The cockpit definitely has three sides in that picture. But we agree to disagree, yes? EDIT: I see the lines you pointed out, they are very faint, but I still think the cockpit is lower and has a different lifting mechanism. That's really hard to see though.

Swash Buckler Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Thanks for sharing those pics, though the CTT seems to be missing a lot to it and Cad Bane has a lightsaber. And Aayla has a blaster- LOL seems that the one who made the sets know absolutely nothing of Star Wars- Nahdarr Vebb is in surgery with a droid that has legs reversed Quote
sok117 Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Did anyone see the new slave 1 in that blog, that was jaw-dropping. It's so detailed and Boba is just well lovely, and the new carbonite made me jump out of my seat, Holy crap my wallet just hit the floor. Quote
RileyC Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Yea they are definitely different cockpits. I like the new design but I just hope the new piece lays flush with the top like the prelim because it looks a lot cleaner that way. Quote

And for clarification: Thank you. EDIT: One last huge image! I think you are looking at the cockpit open it is a bad canopy in my opinion I really think we did not need this set they should have made a better set like grievous lair with kit fisto in the set instead of the arc 170 set Quote
sok117 Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 This discussion is so cluttered with protests against that new cockpit, that I think it needs its own topic. Does anyone have anything to say besides something about the cockpit? Like the colours of Grevious' lightsabers, or how awesome the slave 1 is (they got rid of the brownish red) or something about the CTT. Quote
lightningtiger Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 What's up doc ? (Bugs Bunny) Now if people don't like the cockpit on GG's fighter, then either don't buy it or buy it and change it the way you want it, right ? Interesting that there was no sign of Cad Banes speeder, which means if it's real then it's an exclusive (hope not) - that is either Target (US or OZ)or TRU could be stocking it ! I'm a conformist! !

sonic9374 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 hi, these new sets look amazing! i wonder what boba fetts head will look like under his helmet probley a clone head Quote

We usually don't get much info or pictures on exclusive sets. Example would be the swamp speeder that just poped up 3 weeks before its actual release. I actually like it better that way. It gives us a nice suprise like the dropship w/at-ot and the swamp speeder Quote
CommanderFox Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I have to agree, Bossk's head does look alot like Greedo's, but it could just be the lighting. Carbonite Han looks fantastic! A+ Lego! CommanderFox Quote
JCC1004 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I'm really happy we're finally getting a sand green Boba. Quote
CommanderFox Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 I'm really happy we're finally getting a sand green Boba. Haven't all the Boba's been sand green? Actually maybe they haven't been. Yay for sand green! CommanderFox Quote
Christian Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Video from Toy Fair with the new SW sets, along with pictures from other themes. Link Quote
cavegod Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 right well from the video you can see that the slave one stabilizers rotate on their own to the correct position for flying or landing, and gg cockpit has either a sticker on it or it is printed. Quote
