May 31, 201311 yr Hmm my source never mentioned that to me. And I know most of the details about it. Oh well we will just have to see. Yea, I don't know man. It does sound rather odd. Here is the link to the post. http://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=731446
May 31, 201311 yr I thoroughly believe that the Ewok village is certainly real and it should make for a very interesting set to say the least!! Is it true that it might replace the Death Star that is available now?
May 31, 201311 yr I thoroughly believe that the Ewok village is certainly real and it should make for a very interesting set to say the least!! Is it true that it might replace the Death Star that is available now? Oh yeah I can 100% confirm its real. We are just unsure whether it will be publicly released tomorrow? Yea, I don't know man. It does sound rather odd. Here is the link to the post. http://www.bricklink...e.asp?ID=731446 Hmm he just seems to be some guy with dodgy rumors trying to get attention, I wouldn't listen to him...
May 31, 201311 yr Rumor has it the Ewok Village will be revealed tomorrow. Not sure how much truth is behind it, but I thought I would share. Bricklink poster quoted the following: "Oh, dear! Just got the press-kit for the LEGO Star Wars Ewok Village coming out in September. It will be revealed tomorrow at an event in the Czech Republic and I’m not supposed to say anything until then but OMG, it looks great! (*fainting smiley goes here*) Expect pictures and the full press kit, including designer video on all LEGO fantasies tomorrow (June 1st). We are allowed to share after 5 AM EST." If that's true then I can't wait! I'll be getting it for Christmas if it looks good.
May 31, 201311 yr Hmm my source never mentioned that to me. And I know most of the details about it. Oh well we will just have to see. This might be a stupid question but i'm going to ask it anyway. Can you tell us anything about whats in the set or is there a regulation against that ?
May 31, 201311 yr This might be a stupid question but i'm going to ask it anyway. Can you tell us anything about whats in the set or is there a regulation against that ? Haha, I really am bursting to tell someone but I have been banned from doing so. Lego may come round and shoot me . But dont worry official info is set to be released soon enough . EDIT- I can say it has lots of figures though... Edited May 31, 201311 yr by The Joker1
May 31, 201311 yr This might be a stupid question but i'm going to ask it anyway. Can you tell us anything about whats in the set or is there a regulation against that ? What I'm wondering is how he knows. Could he at least tell us where he got the information?

May 31, 201311 yr Hi guys, One thing I am allowed to reveal is how I got the info. An old friend of mine is a UK consumer products checker. Basically what he does is check over products of different manufacturers to make sure they are appropriate for buying in the UK. And then makes sure the recommended age is appropriate for UK buyers. Thus he gets to see toys and games sometimes months before everyone else. Edited May 31, 201311 yr by The Joker1

Thus he gets to see toys and games sometimes months before everyone else. That's pretty cool. I know you can't say how many minifigs and pieces there are directly, but can you answer this... Are there between 10 to 16 minifigs in this set? And are there 2000-3000 pieces in this set? I understand if you can't answer them, but I would greatly appreciate it if you did. So i heard from a Lego retail store employee that Lego might put the Star Wars line on hiatus until the Rebels series is released. Anyone else heard this? WHAT? That would be a terrible choice by lego if the put the Star Wars line on halt just for Star Wars Rebels. I really hope that employee is wrong because lego wouyld miss a whole year of sets if they waited until Star Wars Rebels to be released. @The Joker1- Thank you for the information! I have to say, I'm looking foward to seeing this set, more so now knowing the large minifig count. Edited May 31, 201311 yr by North Lego Star

Hi, Well I guess I can reveal a bit but I cant do anything else after this. Yes to the piece count it is way over 2000, Thats a bit exact for the figures but it is over 9516 but less than 10188 :wink:
May 31, 201311 yr Well, the people organizing the event on Lipno Point said there will be new set revealed tomorrow (press conference from 9.00-10.00 CET). So probably that's it. I am sure pictures of the set will quickly spread on Internet, but to have it first hand, here is the facebook page of the event (in Czech, but you can see some great Lego MOCs there done by AFOLs): https://www.facebook.com/pages/Uj%C3%AD%C5%BEd%C3%ADme-NA-LEGU/559528554067015?fref=ts Edited May 31, 201311 yr by BudhaBoss
May 31, 201311 yr So, there is between 10 and 24 figures in the Ewok Village. That's alot of figures, especially considering I never got the Death Star. Edited May 31, 201311 yr by Gremer
May 31, 201311 yr So, there is between 10 and 24 figures in the Ewok Village. That's alot of figures, especially considering I never got the Death Star. ....and where are you getting that information? 10-24 is quite a large range.
May 31, 201311 yr TheJoker1 said that the number of figures is over 9516 (Jabba's Palace which has 10) but less than 10188 (the Death Star which has 24). Edited May 31, 201311 yr by Gremer
May 31, 201311 yr ....and where are you getting that information? 10-24 is quite a large range. I would guess he took the numbers from here: Hi, Well I guess I can reveal a bit but I cant do anything else after this. Yes to the piece count it is way over 2000, Thats a bit exact for the figures but it is over 9516 but less than 10188 :wink:
May 31, 201311 yr Yes is true that something is going to reveal tomorrow at Czech republic event, but isnt clear what it is.
May 31, 201311 yr Because of this rumour about a Ewok Village being announced officially, I'm already imagining what the box art might look like. Missed out on 10188, so hopefully I won't miss out on this one if tomorrow is the official reveal. Please say its true, too excited to be disappointed as this set might make me more interested in the OT than PT or TCW. Edited May 31, 201311 yr by AudiBobaR5-D2
May 31, 201311 yr Missed out on 10188 How did you miss out? The Death Star is still for sale on Lego's website. I wonder when they're going to discontinue it, if ever.
May 31, 201311 yr How did you miss out? The Death Star is still for sale on Lego's website. I wonder when they're going to discontinue it, if ever. Oops what I meant to say is that I wanted to get the set when it was released, but couldn't afford it so I bought other sets instead. And If this rumoured Ewok Village is true, then maybe it might replace 10188 by 2014 or later depending on what other sets is on the cards for TLG to announce and release before and after the Sequel Trilogy gets released
May 31, 201311 yr I would suspect that the Czech reveal will more likely be this years Winter Village set. It just seems to better fit the environment. They will probably hold the Ewok's back to announce at next months huge nerdfest where they will get a broader "not just Lego fans" audience.
May 31, 201311 yr What is this event? -Sci Lipno point http://www.kostky.org/data/unl_a5.pdf , http://www.kostky.or...p?topic=40070.0Photo of pieces from this set http://www.kostky.or...89367#msg189367 , weight is about 2 kilos.http://www.kostky.or...89279#msg189279 Please use google translator.
