LEGO Star Wars 2011 Pictures & Rumors

[Delta 38]

Man that thing is ugly. We can only hope LEGO doesn't decide to make that into a set...

I rather like it. Maybe it's just me. Either way, I get virtually any Star Wars set there is these days, so meh.

As for the jetpacks, I don't really mind either way although I do agree that it looks kind of strange to have Mandalorians without them.

For some reason, those bomb squad troopers are growing on me. There's a lot of nice orange printing, and plus orange is my second favourite colour.

[Forresto]

Well, from your fantastic picture:

I only see one...

The mandalorian on the right end of the line, is holding two new pistols.

Like the ones on the early preliminary pics.

[Brickmonger]

I love the new Deathwatch!!!!!!!!!!!! Also the new Bounty Hunters,I see many customazation ideas!!!!!

[Darth Yogi]

Thanks for the pics, I can now really see some new awesome details. Like the silver astromech droid and I can't wait for Saesee Tiin.

What empire ship?

Imperial V-wing Starfighter

I don't know, I just love it, plus I have always wanted a shadow trooper.

I was hoping that this ship would be crap so I wouldn't have to get it, but now I MUST HAVE IT!

Oh!

My bad, and thats not a shadow trooper....

[Brickdoctor]

Not necessarily.

TLG has recently been applying back prints to a lot of figs and with their "new" printing machines, it's actually no problem nor that much of an increase in production to do so.

I hope they'll have back prints - I personally think the jet pack is overrated on anyone but good ol' Boba

I don't think the newer Boba had back printing, though, right? I would assume these are just recolored versions of Boba with a couple tweaks as far as emblems and icons are concerned.

[vexorian]

Oh!

My bad, and thats not a shadow trooper....

I have no idea what those guys that pilot the empire ships are called, and bricklink called them shadow troopers hence my mistake. Anyway, I always wanted one of those :)

Regarding the back printing one would think they would leave it blank because it would just be covered by a jet pack anyway.

Then again the Clone Jet Troopers had back printing and jet packs.

But the jet troopers use standard clone torsos. Removing the back printing would mean more work and cost more since they'd have to print a new batch of torsos just for the one set.

But they were regular CTs with a jetpack.

beat me to it

Another one disappointed because of this Anakin instead of Quinlan...

[Algernon]

I'm really liking the Jedi shuttle.

[AwesomeStar]

That Droid Transport!

I'm definitely getting that. I wonder if they'll do some more droid sets like in 2007 - I'd like to see another MTT. Perhaps in Dark Tan?

-A.S.

[Emperor]

I'd like to see another MTT. Perhaps in Dark Tan?

A dark-tan MTT would be awful, the 2007 set was perfect already. A dark tan AAT would be really nice, though.

I can't wait to see better pics of those sets, especially closer views of the figs. I'd like to know which red is used for the T6 Shuttle, on the out of the box pics it looks like normal red :(

Then again, the orange of the Squad Troopers is far too bright too, so maybe it is dark red after all...

[Mr Man]

I haven't seen the latest episode, but there is really no connection between characters and vehicles with the minifig-vehicle set-up in sets right? So are you implying that someone said that Vos will appear in that Eta-class shuttle in a future set?

That was me I saw the trailer at the end of the last episode, and checked on wookipedia and found it was true.

PS: I last read page 206 then I mised one day and look what happend.

Indeed. Don't really understand why they did that, since it makes the set more interesting to buy as a whole insted of going to Brickink to buy the figures individual.

I presume it has something to do with Lucas and not wanting Master Vos on sale already because the Lego sets are always big spoilers on whats to come on the show.

Well, we have seen Vos in TCW, but there's no sign of Saesee Tin yet - so if they had wanted to cut someone in order not to spoil something from the show it would have been Tin. No, I think the reason, Vos is not in the T6 is simply that they saved him for another set, probably one about the episode with Ziro and him. Or they just thought that three new figs in one set is too much.

*looks over at bounty hunter gunship / the Halo*

you know you could be right

[Emperor]

I think nearly everybody is interested in new jedi, even if you don't know CW. To want the Halo, you either have to know the episode "Bounty Hunters" or you see so many new figs you just can't resist.

Jedis are more popular than bounty hunters, so I agree that 3 new jedi would have been too many.

Or they had a bunch of leftover Anakins from the Twilights they couldn't sell.

i don't see why everyone is upset about there being no vos in the t-6 shuttle, after all the pictures with vos were prelimenary

[prateek]

But the fact that they're taunting us by showing Vos in the set is making us upset.
