Brickdoctor Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 No, me too. Never quite understood the Choice of colours. Same with Blue tie-figthers... Don't know if someone's mentioned this before, but the TIEs used in the OT were accented in silver/light gray, and light reflecting of the [filming] set's blue-screen would have tinted the fighter's accents blue. LEGO could have used this as a way to interrupt the otherwise monotonous colors of the TIE. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that LEGO throws in the colored pieces to break up the coloring of SW sets, since most SW vehicles are entirely one color, with a second color for detailing and accents. They usually use these pieces in the internal structure of the model, but the TIE has no spaces where many colored pieces could be placed and not show on the outside. Just a theory.... All true, but it still shows a stunning lack of imagination.... It was bad enough releasing a new Slave 1 so soon after 6209, but this is ridiculous ! Don't look now- next will be Millennium Falcon #7,328,457,365! The supposed reason as seen on FBTB is that LEGO rereleases sets like the MF and X-Wing every few years so that newer generations can get them, but, yes, in the AT-AT's case, it's [mostly] ridiculous.

Klaus-Dieter Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) Thank you very much for these pics, whung! About the Mid-Scale ISD: I don't like it. But that doesn't say much since I even don't like the Mid-Scale MF. Imo those sets which don't go with the regular sets are imo useless. About the UCS Imperial Shuttle: It's design seems to look perfectly. It's only really a pity that TLG decided to build it as an UCS set and not a regular set (since we haven't had an Imp. Shuttle for years and the version TLG offered before wasn't that good (no gangway))! About the AT-AT: Nothing new here. My final judgement depends on whether we'll get a General Veers with correct torso (which I highly doubt) or again a false General Veers (like in the last AT-AT version). Btw: Exclusive set number 10215 is already left (between 10214 Tower Bridge and 10216 Winter Village Bakery). Do you think that there'll be another SW Exclusive?

The Legonater Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 So if it's NOT IDENTICAL, why you are so... nervous? :] Please, we just ended that conversation. Don't bring it back, not so soon. Quote
Sir von Lego Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 Hi, what do you mean with 10124 Tower Bridge? 10124 is the Wright Flyer, and what the hell is 10126? Can you describe it a little bit more precise to me? Where did you find the sets names? greetings Hendrik Btw: Exclusive set number 10125 is already left (between 10124 Tower Bridge and 10126 Winter Village Bakery). Do you think that there'll be another SW Exclusive? Klaus-Dieter Quote
KimT Posted June 10, 2010 Author Posted June 10, 2010 I've had it with the discussion on the UCS Imperial Shuttle MOC. It's time to stop accusing other people in this topic - so please let's get beck to discussing the sets at hand and not who did what. Such discussions, does NOT belong in the 2010 Rumor & Picture topic. "Thank you for your cooperation!" Quote
BrickClick Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 So wait a minuite now that we have pic's of the Midi Scale ISD and the shuttle does that mean that we now have pics of every 2010 STARWARS set? Or are there more? Will someone please answer this? Quote

brickfoot Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 I am really looking forward to getting the UCS Imperial Shuttle. Quote

Will someone please answer this? We still don't know what LEGO's giving away at ComicCon, and TLG has a habit of releasing last minute special edition sets. (Although Cad Bane's speeder was supposed to be an exclusive and we have pics of that) Quote
Mofo Jones Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 Why is it that the only time TLC asks various sites to take down pics are when it's of a licensed set? Right now there are a few other pics of upcoming sets on the front page, all located by whung. The remaining pics aren't of licensed sets. Quote

The same thing happens on FBTB. Quote
Rufus Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 The shuttle is a must for me. I'm not so keen on the cockpit - I think it tapers too much - but the rest of the design is fantastic. And it's great to see another addition to the UCS line. Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) Do you think that the inside of the cockpit of this AT-AT will be exactly the same like the one of the motorized version? Or do you think that Veers gets an extra screen? Sorry guys, I mixed up the 1 with the two. I corrected it: Btw:Exclusive set number 10215 is already left (between 10214 Tower Bridge and 10216 Winter Village Bakery). Do you think that there'll be another SW Exclusive?

BrickClick Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) There's more to come. YES! Wait how do you know? Edited June 10, 2010 by BrickClick Quote
TheBrickHitHouse Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) People love the midi falcon despite it's lack of any features, figs, interesting bricks or accuracy... ...but you don't love the midi destroyer though it's as inacurate and lacking as the falcon?! What is it about these paperweights you like anyway? Lego designed a set that wouldn't please system fans or UCS fans. Hmm Edited June 10, 2010 by TheBrickHitHouse Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) There's more to come. I did expect this since only one Exclusive in one year would be uncommon (at least in comparison to the last years). But nevertheless it's good to now have confirmation - thank you very much, KimT! So the next two questions are: Will there only be some more accessory (keychains, magnet sets, books etc.) or even a real set? Will this set be an OT Exclusive or a PT/CW Exclusive? Since the IS is already an UCS set, I think it's highly likely that if we got another until now not known set it'll be a regular play set. Klaus-Dieter Edited June 10, 2010 by Klaus-Dieter Quote
BrickClick Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) I presume if the new set is an exclusive it would be OT like most other exclusives but what could it be? Edited June 10, 2010 by BrickClick Quote
mutley777 Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 Well my vote goes for the cloud city set that was rumored for release this year from a very good source last year! It is a ESB year after all. Quote
Mofo Jones Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 (edited) Spoilers and the License/Contract. The same thing happens on FBTB. I've seen this happen at FBTB since I'm a member there as well. I actually know why it's done, I just felt like complaining about it. :) To respond to mutley777 - I'd like to see a new Cloud City set as well. I barely even knew of the existence of the old set before it was off the market. Edited June 10, 2010 by Mofo Jones Quote
BrickClick Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 Well my vote goes for the cloud city set that was rumored for release this year from a very good source last year! It is a ESB year after all. I thought that was rumored to coming out next year? Quote
mutley777 Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 I thought that was rumored to coming out next year? It was rumored to be coming out next year. But that was last year. Quote
General Armendariz Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 That shuttle is all mine! I better start saving up for that one! I need to start collecting star wars more often Quote
sologuy369 Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 I presume if the new set is an exclusive it would be OT like most other exclusives but what could it be? Well my vote goes for the cloud city set that was rumored for release this year from a very good source last year! It is a ESB year after all. That is exactly what I thought. They can't do much of a hoth set exclusive. And a Dagobah set would be nice, but exclusives are $100+. On topic: The new AT-AT set made me glad I didn't buy the old ones!! Nice range of figs.... I am so glad their are two snowtroopers, it will build my army. Quote
Special K Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 Wow these sets are epic I am really hoping for a cloud city later this year though. Quote
