casewindu Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 how good would it be if that republic crusier could fall apart like in the game!( really funny when the poor pilots are sitting in mid-air then fall to their deaths! :-D ) you know what would have made this set EVEN better. . . . nute gunray (i know he is crap in the films but a fig would be legendary! :-D ) Quote
Ras 74 Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 you know what would have made this set EVEN better. . . . nute gunray (i know he is crap in the films but a fig would be legendary! :-D )I think I for once will agree with you casewindu.That would really be great! Quote
aayla-secura Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Yeah wow this would be *sweet* *wub* But they could make a modiefied head like @ *yoda* and kit fisto... Quote
casewindu Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Yeah wow this would be *sweet* *wub* But they could make a modiefied head like @ *yoda* and kit fisto... that would be hard because how would you fit that effeminate hat he wears onto his head? :-D Quote
Athos Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 I can't believe this thread is 87 pages long. Think we could lock this thread and create two new threads, one for the Hoth set and one for the crusier set? Then we would have two much more managable and readable threads, rather than this unwieldy 90 page thread? you know what would have made this set EVEN better. . . . nute gunray I wonder, if because this seems to be (or at least I've heard a rumor to the effect) a TRU exclusive, that didn't do Gunray, because they don't do new molds for such sets. I know they couldn't do new molds for Lego Direct products and I wonder if a similar restriction applies to exclusives? I am quite disappointed that there is no Hoth wildlife though... makes what would have been a must-buy into a well-I-may-think-about-it-and-if-the-wife-is-ok-with-it-buy... :-( Steve Quote

Andrex Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 I agree, two threads would be more effective. And oh yea, Nute tehe. It's a shame it's not to a more realistic scale since the front window panel is seriously small if you want figs in. Ah well, it's a funky set nonetheless :D. Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 What do you think the inside of the Republic ship will look like? -ZotS Quote
aayla-secura Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 mhmm.. hard to say... think in front the cockpit then .... think like imperial destroyer ... or else but the cruiser is so small.. mhm i cant say it the pics dont say much about it.. but if it has 900 pieces must be NOT SMALL... Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 Well, the cockpit does look a little small... They should really make on of those Trade Federation Rings (I froget what they are called). -ZotS Quote

Then we would have two much more managable and readable threads, rather than this unwieldy 90 page thread? Semi-agreed. Yes, this 90+ page thread is a tad excess. I wonder if maybe just two pages wouldn't do it justice. I think a MOD should skim through it and make it several topics, for easy discussion. Quote

I think a MOD should skim through it and make it several topics, for easy discussion. While that would make sense, it isn't really possible. Most posts address both sets at the same time, so separating them wouldn't be feasible. And to close this only to make two more topics for people to basically c/p their old responses into that one?

Oh well, I guess we're stuck with this novel of a thread until the 2008 pics start being leaked. I guess clicking the arrow for the last page isn't all that difficult... X-D Quote
Corvus Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 They should really make on of those Trade Federation Rings (I froget what they are called). -ZotS Almost. trade rings for battleship and you're there. Maybe everyone's let down on the hoth set because they were expecting something bigger, eh? (but that's already known.) After looking at it again, I'm liking it a bit more. The crane is nice, and we get a new snowspeeder, not to mention some nice figs. This might be fun to buy a few and combine them to make it closer to what we expected. A question on the Cruiser: those peices up top that are held up by the technic peice- does that do something, like launch the escape pod? Quote
Sir von Lego Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Yeah..Hoth Escape i will buy because of the minifigs and speeder... Cruiser... mhmmm depends on price ..! Who knows how much he costs?? thanks -=Aayla=- The 7665 Republic Cruiser will cost 94,99 Quote

Then we would have two much more managable and readable threads, rather than this unwieldy 90 page thread? No Way Sir ;-) Like I said previously, I like these kind of threads to extend hehe !! Its totally freestyle like we love :-D Unlike a certain forum... The 7665 Republic Cruiser will cost 94,99 Quote
casewindu Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 the cockpit of the RC is probably the same as the one on the sandcrawler (you could only let one jawa drive it!) i think this may be able to fall apart like in the game! :-D (probably not though! :-/ ) Quote
sam89 Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Hopefully the panels at the side of the Republic Cruiser flip up to reveal the interior, so that the interior goes across the whole width of the model. Quote
Vader Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Hopefully the panels at the side of the Republic Cruiser flip up to reveal the interior, so that the interior goes across the whole width of the model. That could work really well if done correct, though i do feel that they should of done a different ship than this cruiser. Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 That could work really well if done correct, though i do feel that they should of done a different ship than this cruiser. Don't get me started on that one :-D *yoda* Quote
Vader Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Don't get me started on that one :-D *yoda* Lol ok ok ill leave well enough alone X-D Adding this feature to the ship does make it a much better buy than first thought, i mean nobody wants a systems set that does nothing. Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Adding this feature to the ship does make it a much better buy than first thought, i mean nobody wants a systems set that does nothing. I think that the interior will be even simpler than the ISD ;-) Also I fear that the opening mechanism will be too fragile when you try and open it |-/ Anyway, its a good display model ;-) *yoda* Quote
aayla-secura Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Also I fear that the opening mechanism will be too fragile when you try and open it |-/ Anyway, its a good display model ;-) *yoda* i think too could get broken easily ... Quote
Andrex Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Sir von Lego, are you sure about those prices? That's Quote
Axle Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 Actully,Now I love the Hoth Base. It looks goodf enough for me. I prefer to play with my lego than just display it for guests who never come. Lol. NVM that. Anyway on the subject of the RC, someone said the sandcrawlers cock[pit only fit one jawa inside. Can u show me its cockpit?(pics) Quote
