StoutFiles Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I hope we see a character different from Ten Numb. As for the B-Wing pilot, I have a feeling they'll make a new helmet using the same mold as Captain Jag and the new clone pilot in the ARC-170 set. This mold matches the actual helmet much more closely. Given the recent trend, I think we'll get multiple figures with this set. A pilot of course, but I could see it coming with characters from the Home One set, such as Ackbar and Mon Mothma. Possibly someone new like "Prune Face". Quote
cavegod Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 I also think that the B-Wing will include anew B-Wing Pilot and a Sullustan head for anew Ten Numb. what B-Wing? i doubt the ucs will have a minifig. Quote
Fallenangel Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 (edited) i doubt the ucs will have a minifig. That's what I've been saying for months, but no one is listening to me because we don't have either a price or a piece count for 10227. Hopefully when one of those numbers are announced (or, better yet, a picture comes along) people will cease such talk. Edited January 14, 2012 by Fallenangel Quote
sealslip3 Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 The ARC-170 pilot's helmet doesn't look anything like a B-wing pilot's (assuming we're even getting minifigures with 10227). If it isn't going to be a new mold, the piece they've been using would be the best choice. Yeah, after giving it a second look I guess its not as similar as I thought. The shape of the side is about it. As for having any minifigures at all, I'm not sure either way. The X-Wing and Y-Wing didn't, but most of the newer UCS sets do. I guess we'll find out soon! Quote
CaptainCRO Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 Hi, I was away from LEGO for a quite a long time so I have missed all the rumors about new sets. I have some questions... What sets from the first page are going to be released in the winter and when will we get some more pics? Quote

I guess we'll find out soon! See here. I just finished watching the new episode of the clone wars and I'm pretty positive that the Mandlorian Shuttle will be something like this... Mandalorian Shuttle:Ahsoka Tano, Lux Bonteri, R2-D2, Pre Visla, Bo-Katan, Mandalorian Warrior-79.99 I also think that the B-Wing will include anew B-Wing Pilot and a Sullustan head for anew Ten Numb. Any more information or pictures on the summer sets? Remember the days of: Edit: wishlist snipped by MOD @CaptainCRO: Everything after 9495 (excluding 9674-9676, since these have already been released) and probably after the Toy Fair next month, respectively.

Huntleyfx Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 After viewing the new polybagged podracer, I have to say I hate it. Largely for those awful yellow pieces used in the front, even yellow tiles would have worked better. Quote
Mr Man Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 The only UCS sets with figs where 10179 Millennium Falcon, 10212 Imperial Shuttle, and 10221 Super Star Destroyer. I suppose 7191 X-Wing, 10026 Naboo Starfighter, 10134 Y-Wing, and 10215 Obi-Wan’s Jedi Starfighter might count due to the droids, but still only 3 sets came with multiple figs (5 in each case). Quote

Ceroknight Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 Thank you so much! What's a B'omarr Monk? Quote
Piranha Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 gungan sub?? really?? was the queen ever even in that scene? What happened to the Nubian or even a Palace type set? Quote
Huntleyfx Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 Oh my...I hope those prices are the UK equivalent of the TRU tax. Otherwise, this might be a very expensive year. Quote
legolandia Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Found some stuff you guys might like: *snip* Thank you for the links. That website has certainly inflated the prices way too much. £14 for Bespin planet set? £150 for Jabba's Palace? No way! Those prices are expensive even for UK. I thought Jabba's Palace was going to have 10 minifigures? One of which is unknown so far? Thank you so much! What's a B'omarr Monk? A B'omarr Monk is a sort of spidery creature with 4 legs that live in Jabba's palace. You can see them in the film wondering around aimlessly (at least they appear so). Quote

North Lego Star Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the information CM4S... I'm really looking foward to the Gungan Sub, it sounds pretty nice, active and has some great minifigs from what I can assume. I also am looking foward to the Desert Skiff, nice way to get some good minigs and a sarlacc pit, who is this Kithaba? I was really hopeing for a Weequay. I was unsure of the Malevolence at first but now I pretty sure I'll get it, the ship itself sounds really nice, love how they added a transport train in the cargo bay, even though I was really hopeing for a new Ashoka and Tactical Droid, Padme sounds cool. I have a strong feeling lego is being really unsure what minifigs to put in the Desert Skiff, Malevolence and Jabba's Palace but I bet we'll end up getting a Tactical Droid in the Malvolence and a Weequay in the Desert Skiff just beacuse there both easier to make but, we'll most likely get a Padme in the Malevolence because Ahsoka would just be better to save for another set and Salacious Crumb because he was actually at Jabba's Palace. Edited January 15, 2012 by North Lego Star Quote
Piranha Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) That would be Agen Kolar. Thanks for the news, I'm mostly interested in Palpatine's Arrest. I'm sure the figures will be the normal style, not CW - it's ROTS after all, and Anakin's starfighter isn't Clone-Warsified (is that a word..?) either. I have the feeling they're going to re-use Eeth Koth's hairpiece on Agen Kolar, but I hope not. LOTR, SWTOR sets, all those other great sets and now also this... my wallet's crying now already. ~ General Magma If Anakin is in the set I hope they give him a different head from the Interceptor set, i.e none angry one. since there is another SW advent calender this year, does that mean we should expect them every year now? I agree a winter C3PO or Jawa would have been better than Maul, but yeah just a promo for TPM. The other mystery fig sounds great though. A new candy cane part for a fig to hold would be sweet Edited January 15, 2012 by Macoco Quote
commanderneyo Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Finally, a CW Padme Can't wait for that set. Quote
Professor Flitwick Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the new information! You wait all this time for a new Padme, and two come in the same wave! who is this Kithaba? I was really hopeing for a Weequa. I believe Kithaba is the Weequay featured in the preliminary pictures. TLC company likes to ues named the background characters, and indeed invent some, as I believe they did with either Tokkat or Paploo (featured in Ewok Attack/Battle of Endor respectively). A quick search on Google images confirms Kithaba is indeed the Weequay you were expecting. Edited January 15, 2012 by Professor Flitwick Quote

I am not that bothered about the Gungan sub but I did hope that Lego may go the extra mile and include a Boss Nas in there. Malevolence I will certainly get because not only is it one of my favourite SW ships but also because we hardly got any Separatist ships so far. I just hope it is going to be similar size to Tantive IV. Fingers crossed. I believe Kithaba is the Weequay featured in the preliminary pictures. TLC company likes to ues named the background characters, and indeed invent some, as I believe they did with either Tokkat or Paploo (featured in Ewok Attack/Battle of Endor respectively). A quick search on Google images confirms Kithaba is indeed the Weequay you were expecting. Kithaba is a Klatooinian assassin and not a Weequay at all. Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 A quick search on Google images confirms Kithaba is indeed the Weequay you were expecting. ...Only that's not a Weequay. It's a Klatooinian. Quote

Markypops Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 As much as I enjoying the descriptions can't wait until we get proper pictures from the Toy Fair! It's not like I'm counting the days or anything! Quote
just2good Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Hope this isn't old news, but Anakins Pod (30057) is available to order from Toys'R'Us.com Quote
CaptainCRO Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 I can't wait for the palpatine's arrest set. Do you think it will have all noew figures? I guess Saesee Tiin will stay the same and change the others. Do you think they will use Eeth Koth for Agen Kolar? Quote
Huntleyfx Posted January 15, 2012 Posted January 15, 2012 Do you think they will use Eeth Koth for Agen Kolar? The headpiece might be the same, but I don't think LEGO will miss an opportunity to release a new SW minifig. Quote
