KimT Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 Ok people that's enough on prices for now. I've politely requested not to start ranting and to use your wits to calculate what the prices are in your own region. It stops here and it's time to get back on topic discussing the sets and pics. Thanks! Thanks Do we really need this price conversion discussion every time a new wave of sets is upon us? The prices in different regions of the world cannot be converted. I have no problem with price speculation, but I wont tolerate it taking over a rumor topic such as this one. The prices have been given in Euro. Now go check similar sets on S@H and compare the prices in your region and you'll have a rough estimate on the price. "Stand down!" and "Stay On Target!" Gosh i really hope the prices are just spectulation because im not paying $20 smackoronnies for a darned battlepack!!! And still you had to comment like this Quote
Ras 74 Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Right now I am so looking forward to see what this weekend will bring us in pictures from BrickCon. The Freco really looks pretty good in the blury pics. That was one set I thought after seeing it in the CW season 1 "That one is pretty cool. Maybe I´ll make an attempt to build one". Now I don´t have to. Just Mod it if needed... as usual Isn´t just 5 SW sets for a Januari release a little few? How many do we use to get on a January release? Anyone remember? Quote
ADHO15 Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Isn´t just 5 SW sets for a Januari release a little few?How many do we use to get on a January release? Anyone remember? Five seems about right. There's usually two battlepacks and three other sets. This year, we got the clone trooper and assassin droid BPs, the hyena droid bomber, the AAT and the RAS. This years sets seem a little smaller, a bit more like last year: Rebel and Imperial BPs, Anakin's fighter, Hailfire droid and spider droid and the AT-AP. Instead we'll get the two £10 BPs, £20 droid fighter and freeco speeder and an estimated £40 TIE defender. Quote
Navy Trooper Fenson Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Isn´t just 5 SW sets for a Januari release a little few?How many do we use to get on a January release? Anyone remember? Normally it´s 2 BPs 2 25€ 2 between 35€ and 50€ 1 70€ We now get 2 BPs 3 25€ (Freeco, Tri Fighter, Lukes Speeder) 1 50€ (TIE Defender) 1 70€ (ARC-170) I am very interested in getting the Freeco bike but the price of 27€ and the leaked pictures make it look to me much to big. I think it could have easily been a 10 to 15 bucks battlepack-like set for children that have enough Clone and Assassin Droid BPs and don´t collect OT stuff. I´m also very sceptical of how they do the cockpit. Even with new molds for the strange bubble/egg window I don´t think that they can get it 100% right to the TV version. Quote

Dude KimT just asked not three posts ago to stop commenting on the prices. And yet you are still commenting on them. It doesn't matter if you aren't ranting and raving about them. One comment can start a whole argument. Quote
KimT Posted October 2, 2009 Author Posted October 2, 2009 Wasn't he merely commenting on the type (and size) of sets released in the Jan waves? The price is merely a measure of the size of sets in this particular post. Quote
RocketClone Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Sorry about that Kimt shouldve got a hold of my self. Not back on topic if those are wrong prices then the Tri-Fighter should be $20 Quote
starwarsfanatic Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Does anybody know anything about the supposed AT-AT? Quote
Drock Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Does anybody know anything about the supposed AT-AT? Only what I've read a few pages back Quote
Darth Legolas Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 Dude KimT just asked not three posts ago to stop commenting on the prices. And yet you are still commenting on them. It doesn't matter if you aren't ranting and raving about them. One comment can start a whole argument. He isn't talking about prices. That post was in context. He was only using prices to describe the size of the sets, no harm there. Sorry about that Kimt shouldve got a hold of my self.Not back on topic if those are wrong prices then the Tri-Fighter should be $20 Okay, really, now that's pathetic. Don't talk about prices, that's NOT on topic. I mean, really? NOW back on topic. Who knows what's inside the Tri-fighter? It's probably bombs. It's got rockets, but those are flick-fire. Quote
CommanderFox Posted October 2, 2009 Posted October 2, 2009 NOW back on topic. Who knows what's inside the Tri-fighter? It's probably bombs. It's got rockets, but those are flick-fire. Yeah probably bombs, heres hoping it wont be another buzz droid The rockets or 'flick fires' look like fish to me ?? CommanderFox Quote
Aethersprite Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Do you guys think Plo Koon's JSF will include a hyperdrive ring, like in the cartoon? It'll be cool, but I hope not, since we already have one and I wouldn't be able to afford it if it did. Quote
The Who Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 NOW back on topic. Who knows what's inside the Tri-fighter? It's probably bombs. It's got rockets, but those are flick-fire.Going by all of the [sarcasm] excessive [/sarcasm] space there was in the last one, I would say there is probably not a whole lot of room for anything in this one either.With the ever-so-predictable flick fires, I don't really think there would be bombs in it. I've been wrong before... Quote
RileyC Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 I think it could be possibly bombs or the dreaded buzz droid. I really hope it isnt a buzz droid because they are useless and oversized Quote
Big Cam Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 Do you guys think Plo Koon's JSF will include a hyperdrive ring, like in the cartoon? It'll be cool, but I hope not, since we already have one and I wouldn't be able to afford it if it did. I kind of see them doing this. The CW sets are usually pretty close to the cartoon. I think it would be cool to get the hyperdrive ring in another colorthough. Quote
JCC1004 Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 He's a better picture of the new Hoth Trooper helmet. Credit goes to Commander 501. Linky! I'm not sure if it's cosidered "confidental" so I just posted a link. Those goggles look rather good with the new helment. I'm not sure about the tan color though. Quote

Goggles are alittle to big though the face looks Great cant wait till we see the final pics of all the sets CommanderFox Edited October 3, 2009 by CommanderFox Quote

I'm excited about getting Bren Derlin. We are suposed to see some Brickcon pictures thus weekend. I can't wait! Quote
Big Cam Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 The goggle are a bit big, but then again goggles are suppose to be bigger than say glasses. I'm definetaly not complaining about more hoth figs. Quote
RileyC Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 The new helmet/cap looks really great. I don't really mind that the goggles are too big because they look fine sitting there. The colour is perfect for the cap though and goes really great with the soldiers torso. I really hope we get them with the new battle pack Quote
Inconspicuous Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) Sorry to cut into the tan Rebel helmet discussion, but I watched the premiere of CW Season 2 tonight, and within the first thirty seconds, Plo Koon's starfighter appeared without a booster ring. I'm not sure what this means, but unless the ship appears later in the Season, it looks unlikely that it will include one. Just my two cents. Edited October 3, 2009 by Inconspicuous Quote
ADHO15 Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 I kind of see them doing this. The CW sets are usually pretty close to the cartoon. I think it would be cool to get the hyperdrive ring in another colorthough. It wouldn't be another colour. The existing one for Obi-Wan's starfighter is blue and white, and Plo's fighter is also blue and white, so it'd be pretty much the same. As Inconspicuous just said, it does appear in the second season without a hyperdrive booster ring, so it may just come on its own. He does get chased by vultures, so we may even see a very similar set to Ahsoka's fighter of this year. Quote
CommanderFox Posted October 3, 2009 Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) I'm definetaly not complaining about more hoth figs. Me neither, I love those Hoth rebels and Snowtroopers I watched the premiere of CW Season 2 tonight, and within the first thirty seconds, Plo Koon's starfighter appeared without a booster ring. I'm not sure what this means, but unless the ship appears later in the Season, it looks unlikely that it will include one. Hmm yeah I don't think it will come with the booster ring aswell, Lego will just think if people want it they can get it in obi-wans fighter set. He does get chased by vultures, so we may even see a very similar set to Ahsoka's fighter of this year. Yes I think your right there, I didn't get Ahsokas fighter so I think i'll get this one CommanderFox Edited October 3, 2009 by CommanderFox Quote
