Brickdoctor Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 It's true, we really don't follow the same pattern. Trust me, next year will be a year for those wanting LEGO sets from the movies. The Queen Amidala minifigure basically gave away the fact that the ship everyone's always wanted is on its way some point next year. Wha? So Summer wave, we're getting a Royal Starship?I know you said you work at a Brand Store - is this a case of "I heard it from a friend who works for TLG" or "I've actually seen the model"? Quote

The Queen Amidala minifigure basically gave away the fact that the ship everyone's always wanted is on its way some point next year. That is great news if its true if so I hope it's well done and it does not have to be chrome. I don't even think kids would care if it was chrome it would just mean a higher price or poor set design for a ship this size. I hope she will be in a small set as well so every one has a chance to get her. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 haha you caught me, I do work for LEGO. Now I haven't actually seen the model, but the all-chrome is clearly out of the question, the cost of that would be way to high and unfair for...everyone. Trust me when I say there are very, very exciting products coming out in 2012 that clearly wipe out anything that's come out thus far. Even though I can't wait for the UCS Executor. So you know for certain that this set is coming out?How do you know of Summer 2012 sets but not the Winter ones? (or if you've only heard of some of the Winter Wave releases, which sets can you confirm?) Quote
Artanis I Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 First post has been prepped for info. Now I need to sleep and then I'll update with the info we've gotten so far on the 2012 sets. WB KimT! I'm mostly interested in clones & jedi, although I really like the OT I'm not an OT Lego buyer so there's not much in this wave for me. I suppose I might have to grab extra battle packs? Do I want another Barriss Offee? I know I want a Gree... Brickdoctor, not satisfied with these recent revelations already? Quote
Alfa Animations Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Yes, a Naboo star Ship... if all crome is out of the question we can be sure that these guys will be getting a lot of customers, me for example. Quote
gratefulnat Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Wow, lots of ineteresting stuff here. If half of it turns out to be true I think next year really will be great. I think the idea of these planet mini sets is pretty nifty. And a royal starship would be... Edited August 7, 2011 by gratefulnat Quote
Emperor Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 I think a better design isn't the only reason to release a new X-Wing; 6212 was a TRU exclusive, which means that not every fan was able to get one; a new model which is sold in "normal" stores as well makes much more sense. We have heard that 6212 sold quite well, a new design and being available at all stores will even increase this. Quote

The Queen Amidala minifigure basically gave away the fact that the ship everyone's always wanted is on its way some point next year. I don't want it, but I've already gone over why many times. So far, next year is a year for Episode IV fans. Quote
Petit-bleu Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 I don't want it, but I've already gone over why many times. So far, next year is a year for Episode IV fans. I don't want it either, because it's episode 1 and because it will probably suck in bricks. By the way, the Clone Battle Pack is with 1 ARF and 1 ARC or 2 ARC? Or 2 sources so far don't say the same (but page 1 says one of each, so...) Quote
Esvald Forceswoop Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 I think One ARF, one ARC and two commando droids. Quote
Fives Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 With this new CW battle pack, does anyone know if the ARF has new colours on his helmet, and is the ARC based off of Fives or Echo from the Lola Sayu episodes, or is it just a basic red or blue one, like the guys from the Kamino episode? Quote

Battle Packs are army bulider sets, so I don't think so, they put Echo or Fives in a battle pack, becouse who needs an army of Echo or Fives? Quote

I think it will be like the ARF we got this year - it isn't listed as a specific character, but the design is based on one. I guess the ARC will be named "ARC Trooper" but will resemble Echo/Fives...

Brick Smiley Productions Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 By the sound of all these sets, there are going to be some sweet minifigs! The idea that they are having two droids and two clones in a bp sounds nice for a good battle but it results in alot more duplicates. And I'm really excited that all these figs they are releasing now used to be in $50+ sets but are availible for $10-20. Like the sandtroopers and ARF, AT-TE driver, etc... Looking good! Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Brickdoctor, not satisfied with these recent revelations already? I was just seizing the opportunity to interrogate the witness. I think One ARF, one ARC and two commando droids. That's what I found searching the thread and the first post. Battle Packs are army bulider sets, so I don't think so, they put Echo or Fives in a battle pack, becouse who needs an army of Echo or Fives? Agreed. Though a minor ARC would be possible. (see Zev Senesca) Quote

I guess the ARC will be named "ARC Trooper" but will resemble Echo/Fives... I really doubt the ARC will be Echo or Fives, although it would be awesome if we got them in a later set. I think it will be a yellow, red, or blue one from Kamino. And I don't mean Commander Colt, there is a different red ARC in the background. Also, I think we will get a Rancor Battalion ARF, just my educated guess. I don't think we would get the same one as this years battle pack. But a Geonosis Camo would be . Quote
Esvald Forceswoop Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 What do you think of AT-TE Driver, clone gunner or clone pilot? Quote
brickbuilder Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 What do you think of AT-TE Driver, clone gunner or clone pilot? I don't really know what you are asking. But we aren't getting any of those minifigs in 2012. And as far as I know, there are no Clone troopers that are specialized for AT-TE driving. Unknown Figs: XX (XXX) Price: ? EUR / ? USD / ? GBP Subtheme: XXX Pieces: Unknown Release: 2012 S@H What is this? Is it something other than the 8 sets, the three planets, and the game that is confirmed to be released in 2012? Quote
KimT Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 What is this? Is it something other than the 8 sets, the three planets, and the game that is confirmed to be released in 2012? Nope, it's just a template for future rumors and confirmed sets. Nothing to worry about - really it isn't. "Cross my heart!" and all. Quote
The Legonater Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 What is this? Is it something other than the 8 sets, the three planets, and the game that is confirmed to be released in 2012? You mean that have come from two friends- or the same person- who is a supposed friend of someone who works at LEGO that told them some information? I.E, hearsay? Vehicles: Speederbike and tree with flickr fire thingy Was this on purpose? Becuase it's absolutely hillarious Quote
jphd95 Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 These sets look awesome!!!! I can't wait for more pictures to come out! Quote
brickbuilder Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 These sets look awesome!!!! I can't wait for more pictures to come out! We haven't had any pictures in the first place. But yes I can't wait either!! And what's so funny? Quote
Ceroknight Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 We haven't had any pictures in the first place. But yes I can't wait either!! And what's so funny? We had pictures of the TIE and Queen Amidala Quote
