Ceroknight Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 The mini Vulture Droid looks great! I hope it (and the Venator) are the US Target Easter sets, instead of that awful ATT. I did a quick mock-up of how I think the Vulture is constructed... it will be able to stand up, but I don't think the wings can close. Sorry for the crazy colors--obviously this mini will come with some useful parts for me. That is well done, it will probably look like that Quote
Brickdoctor Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Looks probable. I don't see anyway to get the droid to go to full walking mode with this basic design, though. Quote
Masked Builder Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 That vulture is my favorite of all of the new minis. Though it's still a bit on the odd side. Quote
Gregorovich Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 I'm not much of a Star Wars fan, but the summer sets sound great! I can't wait to see some HR pictures of the Millenium Falcon, Sith Infilrator and Ewok Attack. I'm glad they're making more classic sets instead of just Clone Wars. Quote
Ritz Brick Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 I was just thinking that seeing as how we got a new Captain Rex, and soon a new Commander Cody that Fox will be re-released sometime as well. The Frigate seems like the most likely possibility. This may seem a bit far off but with Yoda being in the set, it would make sense for Thire, Jek and Rys. Knowning TLG they wouldn't release three named clones in one set, but instead maybe have a regular clone and then commander Fox just labelled as Thire. Quote
DarthSion Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Wow I made front page, Your welcome guys, just dumb luck I found them first. Those asking for instruction, when they are released they will be posted here no doubt in the instructions thread, so if you are not already then go subscribe to that thread. Quote
slimninj4 Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 OH I can do with that mini walker and fig. Will have to see if my friends in JP can get me a few. Quote

But Fox has that dk. red insignia on his chest, and Thire in Ambush does not. I guess it's possible since they eventually assume similar roles. Quote
R5-N2 Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Ok I looked at the front page and see nothing, so maybe I have first. Mini Vulture Droid. http://www.jedinews.co.uk/popup.aspx?imgpath=/images/news/articles/newlegomini_08012011.jpg&pageTitle=LEGO%20Mini%20Sets%20Inc.%20New%20Vulture%20Droid http://www.jedinews.co.uk/news/news.aspx?newsID=4348 The imperial Speeder Bike is a new version or it's the 30005 in blue bag ?

qui gon jinn Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 The imperial Speeder Bike is a new version or it's the 30005 in blue bag ? No it's the same. Quote

Good build, and if it is like that then its a quite good little ship. Quote
Walter Kovacs Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Well I for one would love to have all three of the new MINIs. I have to keep my MINI collection complete, don't I? The vulture droid is very well done in that scale, although it's not really that much smaller, now is it? Quote
Darth Jar Jar Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Mraz 'Skintas posted in the what did you buy today thread and said that he got a mini V-Wing and stormtrooper promo set inside his clone trooper battle pack Quote
Masked Builder Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Mraz 'Skintas posted in the what did you buy today thread and said that he got a mini V-Wing and stormtrooper promo set inside his clone trooper battle pack Odd..... I wonder if I'll get some..... Quote
commdr_neyo Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Mraz 'Skintas posted in the what did you buy today thread and said that he got a mini V-Wing and stormtrooper promo set inside his clone trooper battle pack Mini V-Wing? I haven't heard of that one yet.. Or is that just me? Quote
Masked Builder Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Mini V-Wing? I haven't heard of that one yet.. Or is that just me? Nope never heard of it. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Never heard of it. The Stormie was with the MINI V-wing? That doesn't sound right. I hope this isn't their collectible for 2011 (as the Chromies and White Boba before it), 'cause it isn't really exciting sounding at the moment. Quote

It was mostly included, so they wouldn't sell lose figures I agree, if it is, it'just keeps getting worse with those promo's (figure wise - first Boba, now no figure at all). Quote

So he got two promos in one set? Or did he somehow mistake a speeder bike for a V-wing? Quote
KimT Posted January 11, 2011 Author Posted January 11, 2011 So he got two promos in one set? Or did he somehow mistake a speeder bike for a V-wing? C'mon guys slow down. Have anyone heard that TLG will be putting promo figs and sets in other sets in 2011? Nope, I didn't think so. We've had the Chrome C3P0 and chrome Darth Vader packed with sets previously. I'm sure we'd know if they did something like that again. Quote

I agree with you here, but the chrome DV came unexpectedly aswell. No one knew, and then suddenly it was in the Tie Advance. Quote

Sir von Lego Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 No it's the same. Hi, do the blue versions of the minisets 30005, 3000x really exists? If yes, where can I find/buy them? I only saw the first - daily mirror - colours yet... Thanks for your help. greetings Hendrik Quote
