Mr Man Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 It's A FAKEEEEE!!! (Romulan holding the youtube link and looking angry ). No chance, this is just photo editing and duplication all blurred up. Quote
Masked Builder Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 That picture is so fake. We shouldn't have pictures of the Summer Wave sets. I am sorry to do an after 10 page quote,but I had to. Why would they put an ARF trooper in a BP? We had one last year.It's gonna be nice only if ARF is having a geonosis camo. Actually,any camo is good with me I wasn't saying they were. Just that I think it's unlikely. Quote
Bobskink Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I think it's fake because some parts are more blury than others, that is not normal. To bad, it woild be a cool a false rumour, nice try however. Quote
StoutFiles Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Can we please stop acknowledging the blurry picture? The reason that stuff gets made is because you all debate it endlessly. Stop giving the YouTube troll what he wants and let's move on. Quote
Esvald Forceswoop Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I think it's false. Only the TIE Fighter true. Quote
KimT Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I think it's false. Only the TIE Fighter true. So the rest of the rumors listed in the first post are false? Quote
L@go Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Hello - I don't venture over here much, as I'm not all that into Star Wars. But have you guys ever heard of 10225 R2-D2 ? It popped up as I had a look at that webshop after a tip that there might be some new modular building news there. Turns out there's much more than that - that is, if it's not all a hoax. I believe this site has been quite trustworthy before, though... Quote
mutley777 Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Looks interesting! Also a B-wing set is listed! 10227 Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Hm...very interesting! There's been rumors of a UCS B-Wing, but I'd be interested to see what the R2-D2 is all about. Quote
The Legonater Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 So the rest of the rumors listed in the first post are false? Call me crazy, but I still don't think there's enough evidence to put a 'confirmed' stamp on any of them. Quote
Fives Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 It truly is unfortunate that the Naboo set is fake. That set is EXACTLY what I want. Who knows, maybe someone has just heard a rumour and said "Why not see what it might look like?" Doubt it, though. Quote
Ceroknight Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 UCS R2-D2? Maybe they're bring back Lego Star Wars Sculptures? Quote
jansued Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 B-Wing (yes!!) and UCS R2D2 sounds like the distributors catalogues are out.... Quote
mutley777 Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I wonder if the R2-D2 will look anything like the one we were showed when the voting for the Motorised AT-AT was going on a few years ago. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 If these are true, I'm quite excited. UCS B-wing sounds great, and with a 5-digit number R2 sounds like it could be a remote control set if it's not a sculpture. Personally, I hope R2 is a robotic new and improved remake of the Droid Developer Kit. Though with my new addiction to Trains, I might not be buying these anyways. Quote
lightningtiger Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 A UCS B-wing, Admiral Ackbar will be impressed ! Plus a new R2, Mindstorms style perhaps or maybe a mother of UCS builds who knows......images will help (waiting game again)! Hey, BrickDoctor...trains eh, we'll turn you in to a townie that's for sure ! (sorry, off topic ) May the Eurobrick be with us all ! Quote
Fallenangel Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 10227 B-wing? The detective novel guy was telling us the truth, right down to the set number. This makes the rumor (which seemed far-fetched at the time) at least a little more likely... Quote
kamigawa Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Quick question: is the rumor about the B-Wing here because it's "confirmed" that it will be part of next year's waves, or it is just being discussed here and noone knows which year it belongs to? Quote
mutley777 Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Quick question: is the rumor about the B-Wing here because it's "confirmed" that it will be part of next year's waves, or it is just being discussed here and noone knows which year it belongs to? Well seeing as the Super Star Destroyer Executor is not yet released then it would be very strange for TLC to also release a UCS B-wing this year too. Not impossable but I would bet for this to be a next year set. If it is confirmed of course! Quote
Anio Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) The B-Wing is not among the most beautiful Star Wars fighters. But well, it can still make an interesting UCS model. I hope the model will at least have a mechanism for the wings. As for the R2-D2 10227, I'm not interested at all in that model. But I think that such a model fits pretty well to the Lego system. So, it can still make a very good set. Edited August 25, 2011 by Anio Quote

I hope the model will at least have a mechanism for the wings. Considering the design of the craft in that area, I'm skeptical as to whether one would be able to incorporate a gear system while maintaining the shaping around the midsection. Pretty much every B-wing MOC I can think of uses click hinges as S-foils. Quote
lightningtiger Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) My guess on the UCS B-wing will be the foils/wings locked in attack position, which would look fantastic as compared to it's normal flight/landing mode. Edited August 25, 2011 by lightningtiger Quote
Delta 38 Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) It truly is unfortunate that the Naboo set is fake. That set is EXACTLY what I want. Who knows, maybe someone has just heard a rumour and said "Why not see what it might look like?" Doubt it, though. Yeah, same here. An Episode 1 AAT would be nice. I wonder if the R2-D2 will look anything like the one we were showed when the voting for the Motorised AT-AT was going on a few years ago. Wow, that looks pretty good. If the rumour is true, this may be my first ever UCS set. Edited August 25, 2011 by Delta 38 Quote
drdavewatford Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 I would be in seventh heaven if we got the following : Cavegod's B-Wing.... .....and Peter Salter's R2-D2. Not holding my breath, however.... Dr. D. Quote
StoutFiles Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Peter's R2 would cost a fortune. No way were getting something that nice unless TLG goes the (1 in 5000) route to justify the price. Quote
