July 6, 201212 yr Picture is here and discussion is here. The Ewok Village (with shield generator) is the second model from the left on the top shelf of the case on the right. Is it me or can i see a red tie interceptor in that pic. now i can not wait for next year sets
July 6, 201212 yr I wouldn't worry the B-wing is for this year, Ewok village is not UCS. Do you know anything else about the Ewok Village?
July 6, 201212 yr You could be right with Ninjago being discontinued at the end of the year this series never had a VERY big exclusive set before. But I am still hoping for that Ewok Village though. Ninjago isn't actually ending this year. That was a miscommunication. It'll be continuing at least into next year. Personally, I think it's more likely to be the B-Wing, although I would be pleasantly surprised to see another Ninjago set before the end of this year. Heck, if a set were to be revealed at Comic Con, Ninjago still wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility, seeing as it's getting its own panel there this year. Even then, though, I'd reckon they'd announce a licensed theme or set, since the Ninjago panel will likely be focusing on the TV series and other associated media. But yeah, B-Wing is still one of the most likely possibilities.
July 6, 201212 yr Is it me or can i see a red tie interceptor in that pic. Now I cannot wait for next year sets. I wouldn't count on it being released as an official set (much less as part of next year's lineup). But the concept itself is interesting: Emperor's Royal Guard TIE/In
July 6, 201212 yr Anybody know what time the unveiling is supposed to be at today? Sorry if it was already posted.

July 6, 201212 yr Right up there! Too bad I can't watch it that much, the internet here isn't that great. Looks awesome! -Sci
July 6, 201212 yr That's quite a good looking set! It doesn't appear that the cockpit rotates to well, but it's hard to tell. I may buy this one depending on the price.
July 6, 201212 yr Right up there! Too bad I can't watch it that much, the internet here isn't that great. Looks awesome! -Sci Just see this video (by yours truly), as it shouldn't take long to load and has some pictures from the video. And this video is also if the designer video gets removed (LEGO does that a lot) I know it's UCS, but it would have been cool if it came with a special figure anyways.

July 6, 201212 yr Wow that thing is massive!! I'm not sold on the cockpit, however. It seems a little sloppy compared to the rest of the ship. Also, no exclusive figs? I want to know what this thing is going to cost...
July 6, 201212 yr Looks like a very good model to me! Sure, it would have been nice for the cockpit to rotate properly as you turn the model but that is a small criticism.
July 6, 201212 yr After watching the video I'm pretty....underwhelmed. First of all, I'm disappointed that this isn't minifigure scale. It really isn't far off, and it wouldn't have been hard to include a few new minifigures. But my biggest complaint has to be the cockpit. The Jedi Interceptor cockpit just doesn't fit well, it looks like it's drowning in the rest of the cockpit assembly.
July 6, 201212 yr I do not think I will be buying this set. There is nothing that draws me to it what so ever...
July 6, 201212 yr Also, no exclusive figs? Thank God there are none. I'm not willing to pay a hundred or more extra bucks just for some ultra-super-mega-limited-exclusive-onlyfortoday-anniversary-jubilee minifigs that have nothing to do with the set. It's an UCS, for God's sake, let the minifigs swamp the other sets as they are already doing, with the most obscure and forgotten characters being thrown in just to inflate the price.
July 6, 201212 yr Could someone post a picture? My computer and youtube don't work well together... http://www.flickr.com/photos/48476231@N05/7515374796/in/photostream EDIT: Dang it, Sci beat me to it. At least that's my picture from Brickipedia! Edited July 6, 201212 yr by just2good
July 6, 201212 yr It looks exactly how i wished it would look...the price shouldn't be that big, i hope they will release it as soon as possibile
July 6, 201212 yr Ah that's so cool. Might just be enough to tempt me away from my current castle obsession. Price dependent...
July 6, 201212 yr It's really gonna come down to cost. I'm not forking over $350 for this thing, especially without any figs. But if it's priced reasonably, then who knows... I do quite like the B-wing fighter, and this seems like a faithful representation.
