cavegod Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Wouldn't it be great if the UCS B-wing had lots of new parts, rotating cockpit and various other features??? Just Imagine..... Quote

cavegod Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) You enjoy torturing mere AFOL mortals do you not!!! I don't know what you mean.... but it could be as bad as saying that a C3P0 to go with R2 would need a lot of chrome parts wouldn't it? but then i didn't say that did I???

Fuppylodders Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) What is this you speak of!? I demand further info! Edited May 9, 2012 by Fuppylodders Quote

What with the what now!!!!! Its bad enough that you have seen the UCS B-wing in the flesh, now you taunt us with this!!!! Quote
Mr Man Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Wouldn't it be great if the UCS B-wing had lots of new parts, rotating cockpit and various other features??? Just Imagine..... Wouldn't it be great if Cavegod, had a camera... They must be a C3PO down the line, imaging making R2 without him . Quote
DFOL Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Wouldn't it be great if the UCS B-wing had lots of new parts, rotating cockpit and various other features??? (...) Its bad enough that you have seen the UCS B-wing in the flesh (...) Say what now!? You actually got a sneak peak at the UCS B-Wing Cavegod? How does the official UCS model compare to the MOC you posted a few years back? I can't wait to see some pictures, i've been really anticipating this set! Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 I have no interest in any of the sets bar 3. The two Old Republic sets and the JSF. Quote

I can't wait to see some pictures, i've been really anticipating this set! Yes, UCS B-Wing info would be great. The starfighters are my favorite UCS sets, and while I look forward to building R2, I've loved the B-Wing since flying it in the LucasArts games. Do we even have a sense of size or piece count yet?

Ceroknight Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Oh dear, cavegod now I'm excited for the B-Wing! Quote
Duke of wellington Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) Oh dear, cavegod now I'm excited for the B-Wing! I know if comes with I figs will buy it. Edited May 10, 2012 by Duke of wellington Quote
Algernon Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 I know if comes with I figs will buy it. I think chances are good that it will. LEGO's been doing that lately and it wouldn't be hard to stick a B-Wing pilot into the cockpit. Quote
Duke of wellington Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Great maybe a Mon Cala pilot not nien num Great maybe a Mon Cala pilot not nien num Quote
Aeroeza Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 What is this you speak of!? I demand further info! ... I'd say CG may also have signed a non-disclosure agreement to prevent too much more tease!! Quote
JackJonespaw Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 I think chances are good that it will. LEGO's been doing that lately and it wouldn't be hard to stick a B-Wing pilot into the cockpit. But it could be oversized, like UCS Obi-Wans Jedi Starfighter a few years back. Quote
Fuppylodders Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) But it could be oversized, like UCS Obi-Wans Jedi Starfighter a few years back. But it is only about 1500 pieces (I'm sure I saw that somewhere), so I'm not too sure it would be. Also, looking at Cavegods own version, it is already close to a minifig scale (I think, anyways) when you compare it to this pic here and from the preliminary pic I've seen of the UCS version, it looks in similar size. But I could be wrong! @Aeroeza You are also probably right :( Edited May 10, 2012 by Fuppylodders Quote

But I could be wrong! @Aeroeza You are also probably right :( Given that the system B-wing is a little too small, and the extra pieces that will be needed for UCS accuracy, it's more than likely it will be minifig scale with at least one exclusive figure.

deco_droid Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 No. Jace Malcom does not wear one. Hopefully, these Old Republic sets will sell well, and it would then make better sense for LEGO to invest in a new helmet mold for perhaps an Old Republic battlepack? Those sith troopers need some more republic troops to fight! Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 I would be all over Old Republic battle packs. Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 I would army build with a SWTOR Battle Pack. I know LEGO wold probably never make it but I believe a SWTOR BP would sell better than Assassin Droid BP. Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 I'm waiting on pins and needles for pics of the B-Wing! Can't wait- especially if it's minifig scale. It kills me knowing that some of you guys have been lucky enough to see it already. Quote
aayla-secura Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) It seems that some Sets ( Jabbas Palast, Skiff, Malevolence) are already out in Germany!! Prices : Skiff : 29,99 Euro Palace : 139,99 Euro Maloevolence : 119,99 Euro Republic Striker Fighter : 49,99Euro A few pics, unfortunatley no Review by yet. ( pics are from a german LSW board) Edited May 11, 2012 by aayla-secura Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 Thanks for the box shots! They both look fantastic- especially the Skiff. That's the best small-sized set to come around in a while. Quote
jansued Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) Jepp, saw them at the local toys 'r us. Bought the republic stryker, working on a review... It seems that some Sets ( Jabbas Palast, Skiff, Malevolence) are already out in Germany!! Prices : Skiff : 29,99 Euro Palace : 139,99 Euro Maloevolence : 119,99 Euro Republic Striker Fighter : 49,99Euro Edited May 12, 2012 by jansued Quote
CM4Sci Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the box images! Jabba's Palace has quite a lot of features. Also, it looks as if Leia comes with an extra hairpiece in the set! Also, a quick Google search of 29,99 euro equals $38 in American money. I might be wrong, but whatever. A set like that should NOT be 30 dollars. Maybe $15, and $20 at the most. -Sci Edited May 11, 2012 by CM4S Quote
