Hinckley Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Who would a PINK one anyway ? I would a pink one. Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Peaceful pastelly pink Mandalorians. Yep, that's what we need at the Mardi Gras next year - a pink Star Wars float with dancing pink Mandalorians ! So, these are real.....odd. I'm a conformist! ! Quote
Bobskink Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Mandalorian Pride: The Special Edition Collection Sure they are odd, but look at the great colours! haha, good joke, I went for it at first. I'm happy for my wallet this is in fact a joke. Hope this is a joke to. Quote
Destroydacre Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Thankfully those are not real (at least that's how it looks). Pink Boba Fett? Purple Boba Fett? It's hard to come up with worse than the white Boba Fett Lego made, but those would do it, heh. Quote
RileyC Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 It's hard to come up with worse than the white Boba Fett Lego made, No the White Boba was genius because Ralph McQuarrie envisioned that Boba was going to be white and a prototype costume was made in white so its a great nod to the world of star wars. These colours are either genius or geniusly photoshopped. Quote
the Inventor Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Look what I have found on the web, apparently there is also a Yellow fig. the Inventor Quote
pedro Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Ooh, that delicious Baba minifig in a beautiful array of pastel shades? Haha! Nice try lads... Quote
Commander_Rob Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Thank god I was prepared for this after actually believing an April fools joke on the radio (pay a small amount of money for every e-mail you send, people were shocked). Otherwise I might even have believed you. A pink Mandalorian. How dare you? Burn the the blasphemer! Quote
FilmGirl27 Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Lol- multicoloured Mandalorians? Try harder next time. Quote
YG-49 Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 I have to give Siegfried credit for Frontpaging it, make it seem more official. Quote
Big Cam Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Mandalorian Pride: The Special Edition Collection Sure they are odd, but look at the great colours! Haha, April first, any correlation. Quote
def Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Haha, April first, any correlation. People are pretty savvy these days, since the Internet has created a boom in fake press releases... You need to boost the subtlety of your prank for it to succeed. Quote
commdr_neyo Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 While you are talking about stupid April fools pranks, I've found some real news: I got this picture in my e-mail yesterday. Looks pretty real to me. Quote
Deinonychus Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 That can't possibly be a legit LEGO Star Wars set. It's not filled out with a bunch of useless B-1 Battle Droids or another Obi-wan figure Quote
Mr. Elijah Timms Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) that han solo sure would fit nicely in a new cloud city set NOT AN AT-AT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 New Han Solo is the best part of that set... In case anyone forget, the Old Cloud City actually offered the wrong wardrobe for Captain Solo: http://www.brickset.com/minifigs/?m=sw045. Black Vest w/ Brown pants is actually what he wore in the second half of Return of the Jedi on Endor, after ditching the long camo coat (still wish they gave him that treatment for the Endor Bunker set). Technically speaking, this new torso is the only Han Solo OT wardrobe that we have NOT gotten from TLG. Worst part about these new sets is that all I want are the minifigs: True Hoth Luke, the Wampa Bossk, new Boba Fett, the new Carbonite deal, even the Med droid on the shuttle, and now this new Han torso. Speaking as a pretty thorough OT collector, the sets themselves are quite forgettable, and it's the minifigs that are the true draw. The only bad part about that is, I'm not going to drop $80 on a set just because of the figs, so they won't get my money.... Edited April 1, 2010 by Mr. Elijah Timms Quote
Tribolego Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 While you are talking about stupid April fools pranks, I've found some real news: I got this picture in my e-mail yesterday. Looks pretty real to me. It's the "Slave I" episod II version ! Quote
afosl Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 At least this forum is still open, unlike some other well known website forum, which seems to have pulled it's own April Fools joke by shutting down for the day. Today is so annoying. Wading through all the rubbish of April 1st just to find some legitimacy. What fun. No, no, really. Quote
howl.bricks Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 It's the "Slave I" episod II version ! doesn't seem right, near the bottom left of the box, the blue colored slope kind of changes into green ? Quote
afosl Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 doesn't seem right, near the bottom left of the box, the blue colored slope kind of changes into green ? Those slopes on Jango Fett's Slave 1 from 2002 are green. Quote
FinalFeature Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Did I spy a PINK Mandalorian ? These can't be real ! Who would a PINK one anyway ? I'm a conformist! everyone ! I would love a pink mandolorian. Nice try walrus. They all have the same arm pose. Quote
Big Cam Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 While you are talking about stupid April fools pranks, I've found some real news: I got this picture in my e-mail yesterday. Looks pretty real to me. Who did you get this email from??? That's Jango's Slave one and was produced along time ago. Quote
commdr_neyo Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 Who did you get this email from??? That's Jango's Slave one and was produced along time ago. Let's just say I got it from a reliable source. Or something like that... Quote
KimT Posted April 1, 2010 Author Posted April 1, 2010 Looks like this picture. Just rotated and cut into a new box design: Quote
General Magma Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 While you are talking about stupid April fools pranks, I've found some real news: I got this picture in my e-mail yesterday. Looks pretty real to me. That's likely a joke, the background is either the Boba Fett's Slave I background from 2005, or the upcoming one. Where did you find that? ~ General Magma Quote
