Starwars4J Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 If it is not here by now, tlc has done a terrific job at keeping silent. Unfortunately this is one that will slip by us just like the golden guardian (7714). We will probably only see the pics a few days before it is up for sale at ls@h. Sounds like what they did with the Cafe Corner as well, and that thing was a work of art *wub* Maybe this is a good sign? Quote
aayla-secura Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 about what SW set you are telling from`?? Quote
Starwars4J Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 about what SW set you are telling from`?? If you've been reading the thread (or even just this page :-| ) you'd know we're talking about the Hoth Base...*sigh* Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 Or more likely it will be called Hoth Rescue... -ZotS Quote
Kahgarak Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Where can i find pics of the walking AT-AT? Quote
mutley777 Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 There are some in this thread, not sure what page though. Quote
oo7 Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Where can i find pics of the walking AT-AT? The 2000 one or the 2007 one? We don't have the 2007 yet but the 2000 can be found here. Quote
mutley777 Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Nobody is sure if this is picture of the finished model (i hope not :-X ) but here is the pic. Quote
casewindu Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Nobody is sure if this is picture of the finished model (i hope not :-X ) but here is the pic. i know what you mean about this set i just dont see why any body would want it to walk! :-( the moment it started it would most probably fall over! (well that would be like the film! ;-) ) Quote
xwingyoda Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 G, I wasrying to forget about that walking piece of crap and you had to repost it, shame on you :-D :-P Seriously, like I said before, TLC can shove that set up their *beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep* >:-( *yoda* Quote
Wout Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 If it is an expensive set, they could give the pieces to build both technic and normal system legs like the outside of that new Ferrari (red or yellow) ;-) But maybe they put then lesser stromtroopers in it |-/ Quote
Starwars4J Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 7665 Republic Cruiser Part of the Hoth Base is probably at the bottom right. -l2k- Hm...very interesting. I guess time will tell, but that doesn't look real to me. Not only are the lightsabers cut way too short, but the whole model looks thrown together. It looks like a poorly done MOC. Not to mention the use of basic bricks, lack of new mold bricks (which we've come to expect from SW) and the fact that it's a real model, whereas all magazine shots are CGI. I could be totally off though. Either way nice find. Edit: Also considering...the first pics in an English TRU magazine? Nothing from Europe first like normal? And how'd it sneak into a flier already without being available anywhere else first? It just seems suspicious, though I'd love to be wrong. Quote

Starwars4J Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 It still looks like a MOC/shop to me, but I could be totally wrong, and hope I am. Quote
Scouty Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 But it says September first on the bottom and there is no other model in the picture. So this must be the final product, perhaps. Quote
Starwars4J Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 But it says September first on the bottom and there is no other model in the picture. So this must be the final product, perhaps. I'm not saying that. If you look at the pictures, there are too many inconsistancies for my taste. Too many things that don't look professional (the lightsabers and lack of CGI being foremost). I'm not saying these are prelims, I'm saying these could have been made up Quote
sam89 Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 OK, I think EVERYONE is disappointed in the lack of Taun-Tauns, but I'll still be getting the Hoth Base. I want a snowspeeder and the set looks quite cool. The Republic Cruiser looks good to me. And it comes with a green astromech! X-D EDIT: Starwars4J, the pics are CountBlockula's, they're from a catalogue from Brickfest. They're official. Quote
oo7 Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Wow.....I think this is good proof. And it looks pretty good too but Hoth is smaller than I expected. Who's Flickr gallery are those from? Nevermind Quote
Starwars4J Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Well...if you say so, Sam. They still look horribly unprofessional, especially that cruiser :-X I'll probably just BL the astromech then... Quote
Legoman Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 "i find you lack of faith disturbing young starwars4j" :-P i think they are real.but i can still see what you mean starwas4j.it does look a little fake.anyways, these are pritty much what i expected.the hoth base is a bit dissapointing but it's still good for it's price tag.i'm likin that snowspeeder though.the turret in great, nice seection of figs too.but the cave thing is a bit average :-X .the crusier is a bit, well fat :-/ .if you know what i mean, not long enough.i still like it though just like what i expected aswell.nice selection of figs (lovin that green R2 :'-) ) but qui-gon could do with a hair peice and not a hood. :-/ but over all nice sets.got to get me a hoth base. Quote
oo7 Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 Hmm.....I'm a bit confused about the door in Hoth; obviously it opens and closes but I dont see how that's possible with those studs exposed on the top of the interlocking wedges of the door. Wow, I love those figs. WHA? - Why is the Prequel Trilogy ship in Original Trilogy scenery in this picture? Quote
Scouty Posted March 30, 2007 Posted March 30, 2007 There is a lack of a bottom part in the Republic cruiser. Sould be filled, I think. I was a bit dissapointed with these, but they do look great, ones I will certainly buy :-) . Edit: Yay! Missles in hoth! Missles in Hoth!!! Quote
