Brickdoctor Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Huh. For some reason I never noticed that the V-wing comes with an Imperial pilot, not a TIE Pilot; I may get it if it goes on sale during Black Friday '11 or the May the Fourth be with You event. EDIT: Sorry for the double post, guess it's been longer than I thought since the last post. Edited September 1, 2010 by Brickdoctor Quote
CommanderFox Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 A nice line up for the coming year i see! Really looking forward to picking up a few of the BPs and maybe the V-wing and the Bounty hunter gunship. Can't wait to see some leaked pics! CF Quote

UsernameMDM Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 The mandos looks like they have new guns...or are they the same as the clone commander's? Yes & yes. Appears to be DC-17s w/scopes. Quote
Ceroknight Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Yes & yes. Appears to be DC-17s w/scopes. so...they are new never before seen molds? Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 so...they are new never before seen molds? Yes that would be true. This size of this new blaster is between the small hand blaster and the medium blaster w/ scope. Quote
ThatGuyWithTheBricks Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Cerokight, your link is broken, just so ya know. Quote
RocketClone Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Yes that would be true. This size of this new blaster is between the small hand blaster and the medium blaster w/ scope. Iv'e noticed this as well, find it better than the standard clone mini pistol. And as for the 2011 sets i must say that i'll be looking forward to buying multiples of the mando BP. Quote

382nd Legionnaire Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Whoops well you find it on the 32/33rd page here can we have a repost of that link? Quote
The_Customizer Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I can't wait to get one of these sets. I love the BPs (Battle Packs) and the Jedi thing is pretty sweet as well! Quote

Masked Builder Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Huh. For some reason I never noticed that the V-wing comes with an Imperial pilot, not a TIE Pilot. Yet another opening for it to be a Female. Quote
djmangunz Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Wait, what? Aren't we discussing the upcoming 2011 sets? (Halo, T-6, Battle of Naboo, V-wing, etc.) The sets that are supposed to release in January 2011? Never mind, forgot January counted as winter. I've just never heard of the opening wave of a year referred to as the winter sets. Usually, I think of winter sets as the Winter Toy Shop and the late releases like the UCS Delta-7. Let me make myself clear, I really like the JANUARY sets we will get in 2011 but I am more excited to see the AUGUST sets we will get late 2011. Good? I have always thought of the January sets as the winter sets and the August as the summer, since here in the US that is the time we typically get those seasons. And since this is a 2011 Pictures and Rumors topic I feel justified in my discussing and speculating about said upcoming summer sets. Those August sets always seem to be bigger and or more exciting than the winter versions. Not that I don't like the winter sets, but the summer sets are the ones I look forward to more. Quote

I agree- they seem more like Winter sets to me than anything else. I've also noticed that- especially in the last two years, the sets get bigger in augest. It makes sence to me, though, because Christmas isn't too far away from August. Quote
djmangunz Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I have always wondered why the sets are bigger (at least for Star Wars) in August, but the fact that it is only four months away until Christmas makes sense. Good call. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I have always wondered why the sets are bigger (at least for Star Wars) in August, but the fact that it is only four months away until Christmas makes sense. Good call. To add more hype when they're revealed at Toy Fair. Quote
The_Customizer Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 To add more hype when they're revealed at Toy Fair. SO they can pass out more White Boba Fetts! Anyway, back on topic: I am looking forward to these sets, I just hope they change Saesse Tiin's Face! Right now, it is just a clone trooper face. And I also hope they fix the bomb squad trooper, I am sorry, but that is one lame Bomb Squad Trooper. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 And I also hope they fix the bomb squad trooper, I am sorry, but that is one lame Bomb Squad Trooper. It's because they've done it backwards. They should've molded the pieces in orange, and then printed them white. It's what Jared Burks of K.A.M. did. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) And I also hope they fix the bomb squad trooper, I am sorry, but that is one lame Bomb Squad Trooper. I think they will (hopefully). It just doesn't look right if the Bomb Squad troopers has different-colored arms when clearly the real BS troopers have two orange arms (as previously pointed out in this ref. pic). I would be surprised if they wouldn't fix that glaring inaccuracy. It's because they've done it backwards. They should've molded the pieces in orange, and then printed them white. It's what Jared Burks of K.A.M. did. I partly agree, the helmet should've been orange with white diamond prints. But the torso should be majorly white with orange prints. Then the arms and legs should all be orange. Edited September 2, 2010 by KielDaMan Quote
CommanderFox Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Just looked at the pics now! They look incredible!! Saesee Tiin face is a clone troopers face though which is a bummer, hopefully the change it before the final, oh well I love that head mold! The ARF and Commando and Bomb squad troopers and Mando's are all incredible, I think I'll be getting at least a ton of them!! CF Quote
Darth Jar Jar Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Are we discussing the summer sets already but we have only just seen prelims for the winter sets Quote
CommanderR Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Is it me or is there two different types bomb squad troopers on the box of the clone bp, the one on the right has a more orange helmet and the one on the left has a more white one. I think the arms of the bomb squad troopers will change, being both of the same instead one orange and one white. I find it is not like Lego to stick two different arms on one minifigure. I think and hope that all of the mandalorians in the bp have jetpacks, since that is what they had in the episodes. I can't wait to see the sets for summer 2011, I hope they come out with something like a mandalorian (or death watch) base with pre vizsla. Quote

Yea I noticed that they were different this makes the battle pack even better some more variation Quote
prateek Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 I don't mind the BS helmets being white, but they should really fix the arm issue. Quote
