No. Considering the only big pieces here are the roof and the 4x16 curved slope, everything is fine to me.

But then you've also got these and these, which for me give too much of a <insert that tiresome argument> look on the model. That's why I used 45 slope bricks on my X-wing instead of the large cylinder pieces (even though I suppose the latter would be more accurate, but hey, it's LEGO).

Fantastic pictures, Love the clone commander and Saesee Tinn.

I really like the new gun mold and can't wait to get these.

The new high res pics look great. It looks like lego is really paying attetion to detal this time around.

I was wondering about this for a while, will the clone battle pack include ARC gear?

I haven't seen any pictures with the gear on so I'm assuming they won't but just to make sure...

It looks like there won't be any ARC gear in the Clone BP, if there was they would have put them in the photos right from the very start.

Thanks for the pics! The Gungan, pistols, and pilot B1 are looking better than ever, although the carrier is really disproportionate and will need serious modding.

Great pics. I especially like the look of Saesee Tiin, even if he is rather Clone Warsy. Can you get close-up pictures of the minifigures from the Bounty Hunter Gunship and of Shaak Ti? Thanks in advance.

I love those new blasters! Finally Han will have something a lot more accurate!

And he has the CW to thank it for. Which makes it ironic to see clones holding this new blaster since I don't recall any clone weapon that size that should have top scopes. (Yeah I know it's supposed to be a generic blaster).

Wow, thanks for those better pics.

I've uploaded them to flickr and the 2011 Gallery hosted here on EB.

Thanks again Steff

Wow, great pictures!

Thanks Steff!

Clone Commander and Saesee Tinn look great!

Where did you find them?

Saesee Tiin looks horrible his the head pieces looks horrible it looks way oversized than it should off been

Anyone noticed that some off the ink has run on Eeth Koths trooper

The only sets I will buy is the battle packs,V-Wing and the battle off Naboo

But thanks for the pics

I wonder if this new smaller blaster will become the standard one? I do hope not because I like the medium sized one. It's a nice size, not rifle but not pistol. I sure do hope they keep using all the different sizes, they provide good variation. But I do hope this new one pushes out the ARC gun because that just didnt fit in with the others.

Thanks, shows there is definitely room for two in that cockpit.

Those seem to be some big stickers as well.

But still not looking half as bad as the first pictures we got of the T6 in my opinion.

Looks like the entire January wave (minus SE 7968 and 7969) are up on Amazon for preorder.

I'll grab all and add to the Gallery and flickr.

Battle of Naboo Review

I really wish they thought of something better for the rack

Battle of Naboo Review

I really wish they thought of something better for the rack

Thanks for the link, I've been looking for a review for a while now, already.

The carrier itself looks alright, but if you buy multiple, you can make one large one, with some modifications here and there.

I think I'll do that, since it's just too short now, and doesn't carry many units.

The figures are great though, all of them. I wish they could've done some kind of a "backpack" for the battle droids, however..

Finally a Review of the Clone Trooper Battle pack. According to Brickset its the most bought 2011 set so far and it only has one review yet.

Greatest clone figures imaginable!

Posted by starwarsman52 in United States on 08 December 2010

I couldn't believe how good these new clone figures were even after looking at pictures of them hundreds of times. The clone commander is fantastic. He has an awesome, almost transparent green/yellow color scheme which looks amazing. The 2 bomb squad troopers are perfect as well. The have an eye-popping hot orange color that also has a semi-transparent look to it. And the ARF trooper- INCREDIBLE! This has to be my favorite clone figure of ALL time. As for the BARC speeder, well a slight disappointment but not the worst. It's build is obviously easy to make but it's a kind of stupid way to put it together.

Pros:

incredible minifigures

good price

Cons:

mediocre speeder

thats it!

Great pictures of the Naboo set and the Clone BP by Karlijntje2 here.

Also his Youtube review

.

They look amazing! I especially love the bomb squad trooper.

So we got the piece count for each from amazon:

Halo: 389 pieces, average value I guess.

T-6: 389 pieces as well, I hope that's a mistake, surely a big set like this should have more.

BoN: 241 pieces. Good value considering the 12 minifigs.

V-Wing: 139 pieces, that's really bad.

Clone BP: 85 pieces, Mandalorian BP: 68 pieces, OK for battle packs.

Somehow reviews like that with lots of all-caps and exclamation marks always make me roll my eyes. Like the guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Or maybe that's just me.

I'm thinking the carrier is not just too short, the pilot area is too long. Plus the rack is undersized. It'll need more than a simple rack mod.

Must be a mistake - though we cannot rely on piece count when comparing prices anymore.

It's also about part size and colour.

I've updated the first post with part counts.

I don't think the piece count of the Jedi Shuttle is a mistake...

It's also about part size and colour.

The parts of the shuttle are very big, the shuttle would be far too big if it contained more than 400 pieces. The new molds of the new Jedi is probably very expensive, too.

I can't wait to get the Clone Battle Pack. Every fig is awesome, especially the Commando; the green printing is just perfect

According to amazon the sets will be released in February (in Germany, at least), so probably I'll have to get them from a dutch shop... I don't want to wait 2 months
