LEGO Star Wars 2011 Pictures & Rumors

[fff]

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

I hope TLC is listening

[Ceroknight]

I hope TLC is listening

with all these talk about being fine with 'Chinese made figures,' i hope not

[XimenaPaulina]

Relax guys, I'm pretty sure Vos will appear in a future set, I can't think of any logical reason why TLG wouldn't release his minifig considering they already gave us a teaser in the prelims. I just hope it will not be in that tri-winged shuttle.

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

Then again, we all need to remember that they actually weren't taunting us at all. Those are confidential pictures and generally speaking none of us should have looked at them unless we specifically needed to.

Personally, I'm more annoyed at the droid carrier's colour scheme, which was much better in the prelims.

So, speaking minifigs, would you say this a complete list of new ones the first wave of 2011 sets:

7913: ARF Trooper, Clone Trooper Commando, Bomb Squad Trooper

7914: Mandalorian (no Mando without jetpack)

7915: Imperial pilot, R2-Q2

7929: Jar Jar Binks, Gungan Soldier, Droid Pilot

7930: Sugil, Embo, Aurra Sing (no new printing/sticker on Assassin Droid)

7931: Shaak Ti,Saesee Tiin (no Q Vos)

Also we are quite sure about new figs in these, later or exclusive/LE sets:

7868: Astromech, Command Droid (probably same CW Mace Windu as before)

7869: Luminara Unduli (Rex is also the same i guess)

With new figs I mean that they will get a separate post in BL:s list. There might be some variation on some figs, such as white pupils. I'm thinking about how much space I need in my complete collection (and how much cash )

New droid pilot?

[Skafte]

New droid pilot?

Yup. Tan printing on the blue body.

[robuko]

Yes. It's cheaper to make a complicated part in China rather than in Denmark.

Could you please explain why? I would guess that moulding and printing machines, inks, and plastic are pretty much globally priced. Other factors of production such as labour, land, credit may be cheaper in China but would they would make a significant difference to such a capital-intensive, high gross margin business model as Lego's?

[Mr Man]

wasnt this a promotion in the UK last year or this year?

Yes with the Daily Mirror

It came with a STAP and a mini mini walker and some minis. it looks like it is in a new packaging though.

[Supersonic]

Relax guys, I'm pretty sure Vos will appear in a future set, I can't think of any logical reason why TLG wouldn't release his minifig considering they already gave us a teaser in the prelims. I just hope it will not be in that tri-winged shuttle.

Another jedi shuttle that serves nearly the same purpose? Can't imagine that. It would just look too fragile as a set.

What about (spoiler from newest TCW episode)

the boat on which Bane hunts Ziro? Add the two Jedi and maybe a bit of swamp and there's your set.

Excuse me, KielDaMan, but to which ' tri-winged shuttle' do you refer?'

I'm not a watcher of the CW series so could you post a link so I can read? (I may not be a fan of the series as such, but I do really like a lot of the vehicles)

Thanks!

It's not that ugly, but it would be nearly impossible to build it as a lego set.

I would prefer to have him in a set based off Cad Bane's Starfighter, that shuttle looks to me. But it is almost certain that he will appear in a future set because he appeared in the recent episode of The Clone Wars and his minifig was shown in the preliminary pictures of the sets. Just keep your fingers crossed that I 'm right.

I don't know, I think its pretty ugly

it's kind of odd but it seems to be reappearing so I won't be surprised if we get it.

I quite like the tri-winged shuttle actually, better designs than the other shuttles so far anyway.

As for Vos, I get the feeling Lego probably wanted to include more of the main characters.. Anakin, Obi-wan and Ahsoka rather than the one of Jedi characters that a lot of kids may not even remember.

I think Shaak Ti and Tinn have been requested for a lot longer than Vos have, so they probably decided to just hold him back for a later set.

I'm not sure if any of you noticed but it seems some people Have got The Clone battle pack, T-6 Shuttle, Bounty Hunter Gunship and Imperial V-wing sets

Yes, but the pictures are the same we already know; if you really had the sets, you would take better pictures, and not just use old ones from the internet.

The picture of the Clone Trooper Battle Pack has a slightly better resolution I think, you can see the ARF Trooper clearer than on the other pics.

Well we already know they're out after all the pics that appeared on legopirate.

Yes but so far we only knew the Battle of Naboo had been bought so I was pointing out the other sets recently bought.

[legolandia]

Yup. Tan printing on the blue body.

I don't think it is tan but white instead. And that has been released a few years back, so it isn't new.

[Walter Kovacs]

I don't think it is tan but white instead. And that has been released a few years back, so it isn't new.

I thought the older ones were tan bodies with blue printing. These are blue bodies with tan/white printing. And it's good to see printed bodies make a return at any rate.

[Emperor]

Obviously not.

I think this body is far more accurate than the latest versions, I really like it that there are 2 of them in this set, the'll be the perfect pilots for my AAT ;)

Ah true, my apologies. I got confused with the red droid with white printing on the chest.

[Brickdoctor]

Red with white printing? I assume you're referring to the rocket droids, but those have yellow printing, right?
