2004 - Good or Bad year for the Star Wars line?

[Orlego]

The sail barge or the sand crawler would be great us UCS sets. I would be really cool if Lego made a "Battle of Hoth" set like this one.

I know, I know... keep dreaming

[Vader]

A Hoth battle set would be cool, hell a set with a probe droid/ tauntan/wampa/rebal soliders would be something that id love to see. I for one cant believe how badly lego have let us down when it comes to the ESB HOTH BATTLE.

[HJR-Holland]

I can fully understand why LEGO has re-released the A-list of Star wars vehicles again, and I have no problems with the X-wing, snowspeeder and cantina at all. It's just a shame that there's nothing 'new' at all this year (apart from the new TIE of course, but to spend 85

[ApophisV]

Yes, re-releases in general aren't that bad.... But JUST re-releases all year long is.... boring.... |-/

[Vader]

It would have been a great year for all fans if we had been given some new sets.

[HJR-Holland]

It is however a hard time for the completist; the TIE collection of which half is rubbish, the rerelease of the Y-wing with 'new grey' and the TIE advanced that is almost the same; the X-wing in new grey... all models that the collector already has, and so might skip the newer versions, were it not that there are small differences... I for one have decided not to buy rereleases or rerereleases at all...

[KimT]

Then you'll miss the changes made. For example the new version of the millenium falcon or the changes made to the tie in Tie and Y-wing. ;)

How about a rerelease of MTT and AAT as a battle pack. :oD

That would be something nice.

[Vader]

I doubt if we will ever see either the MTT or AAT again :'( which is a shame as i dont have either of them.

[Jipay]

It is fun to see that the new Tie is another re-re-re-re-release :-D If the price is low I would maybe buy it, only if Lego is not releasing it with a vader (which is stupid)

[Vader]

It is strange that the tie is pictured with vader and not a piolt. I wonder if he part of another set that weve not seen yet and remember that lego have made mistakes in the past with their preview pics in mags and catologs.

[Jipay]

remember that lego have made mistakes in the past with their preview pics in mags and catologs.

Honestly, this is what I wish !

[Vader]

Well it would surprise me to get a vader with a normal tie, it could also be that lego intends to give us a different tie one that is unlike the others so far, perhaps they didnt have the prototype when they put the mag together....its a long shot but you never know.

[Orlego]

remember that lego have made mistakes in the past with their preview pics in mags and catologs.

Do you think they make mistakes, or do you think its all part of the marketing? They have to know that product info gets leaked before they want consumers to know about it. They may be doing a Lucas "Revenge of the Jedi" thing.

[Vader]

Thats possible but who knows for sure.

[Orlego]

And please, please, PLEASE!!!! No more ties, or at least re-released ties!!!!!

Please?! :'(

[Vader]

I fear your cries may fall on deaf ears ;)

[Orlego]

I think they already have |-/

[ApophisV]

Come on, guys! The signs for next year are very good from what we have seen so far... (Besides the re-released single TIE Fighter.... :| )

And look how many Ep3 sets we get!!! Lets hope they are good enough to heal all the hurts the re-re-re-re-releases made... ;)

[Vader]

I wont be happy until i see some more of the sw sets (curses himself for not building that time machine) on paper it looks good so my hopes are high.

[Orlego]

I know, I know. I complain becuse I love. 2005 is going to be a great year for the brick. In fact I'm now making it official...

2005 - The Year Of The Brick

*satis*

[Vader]

Its looking good so far, im just going to enjoy these new sets and hope that the next batch are as good. :)

[David85]

I want my other TIE, don't you love them? :D

*Doesn't own a single TIE*

[Vader]

Not as much as i love my lego house :-D ;)

[jonfett]

2004: The sad year :(

2005: The Happy Year... :)

Lets hope we get some nice new sets, we have already seen most of them, but if we keep our fingers crossed then it will be a minimal number of re-releases.. I am guessing less than 3! ;)

Jon.
