eric729 Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 We don't have a proper (Decent pictures, not in a video, thorough review.) review of 75021 yet, right? I didn't find one. CapnRex101 posted one on Brickset. legoboy12345678 has reviews of all the summer wave sets. I find his reviews to be thorough. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 legoboy12345678 has reviews of all the summer wave sets. I find his reviews to be thorough. Is he the one that used to do the huge clone-on-baseplate creations with buildings made of nothing by 2x4s, and bought all the stock sets as early as possible to take pictures of them to show off on flickr, a few years ago? Aren't those reviews videos? (Not a huge fan of video reviews. A good text review (with videos in it if there are any features that demand it.) is much better, in my opinion, and that's what I meant when I said "proper review".) Quote

I have the Darth Maul set already (fathers day gift) and have a difficult time choosing which set i'm going to pick up next. Quote

legofreak86 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Am I the only one who thinks the new Jango Fett looks better with classic grey pistols rather than those Bland and boring hoses? The problem with those is when you make him hold the hoses as if he is shooting them, they don't really look like pistols! Plus in the film the guns were long yes but they looked like futuristic revolver pistols not like smooth long hoses. I think currently that the pistols they used for the old Jango Fett are the most accurate version out of the two. Then again I think the new pearl silver pistols from Lone Ranger would work quite good too. I'll have to do some experimentation. Edited June 21, 2013 by legofreak86 Quote
AngryStormtrooper250 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 I really want to see a Jocasta Nu, Wat Tambor, or Dexter Jetster figure in the future. I have an idea for the new wave of Ep. II sets (it includes Jocasta Nu): Jedi Archives- Features Obi Wan-Kenobi, Jocasta Nu, and a Jedi Youngling with training ball Also has rows of shelves filled with holocrons and books, tables, and microfigures (Like the ones in Palpatine's Arrest) to represent statues. Could also include more Jedi like Yaddle, Yarael Poof, and Oppo Rancisis. Quote

A good substitute, though, are the pistols, but in dark bley; they at least look more sci-fi than the hose pieces they're using now. (But still not as good as the revolvers.) Lone Ranger pistols might look good too, in metallic, but I think they're too skinny to look good from what I've seen of them, with any LEGO minifig of any theme. (They don't look like they fit in with the style of LEGO minifigs.) Quote

The_Chosen_1 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 ^ The "Minifigure Gallery" is absolutely incredible!!! Quote
67mountie67 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Are there any rumors of a wider release for the clone trooper leiutenant polybag floating around anywhere? Quote
Navy Trooper Fenson Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Are there any rumors of a wider release for the clone trooper leiutenant polybag floating around anywhere? There was somebody who said we either get him in a set in 2014 or the polybag will be reused for a wider (or worldwide) promo campaign. Quote

I think that was speculation, but it's not out of the realm of possibility that the LT could be used in a bigger promotion (i.e. buy $75 or more of sets, get a free junior officer). Quote

Glad you really look at people from there past rather then the present. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Well thanks.... Glad you really look at people from there past rather then the present. Actually, if you look at my post, I never made any connection between what you did in the past and what you do now, nor did I state any judgment based on that; I merely used it as a method of ensuring that another member and I were talking about the same person. There are a number of different people who use a username "legoboynn...", and there is a huge number of people who do video reviews. Quote
Zzz Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Check this out Japan SW exhibition with b-new LSW sets Those Luke & Darth minifigs are amazing - haven't seen those before! Quote
Only Sinner Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Well thanks.... Glad you really look at people from there past rather then the present. I like your reviews, David. You know, as far as video reviews go, Solid Brix Studios has the longest, most in-depth reviews around. And most importantly, he is actually knowledgable about the subject. Unlike some video reviewers. I would also like to add, some of these reviewers go to great lengths to be of the first to do a review on new releases. I think that all ego aside, the early reviews really do help to promote the newest sets, and can only benefit our hobby and affect future sales and development in a positive manner. So, here's to all the remaining 2013 LEGO Star Wars reviewers! *CHEERS!* Quote
Tariq j Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Hi, apparantly there is some sort of starfighter featuring cad bane I'm not exactly sure what it's called but I know it's meant to be released in 2013 but in the UK it isn't in stores, does anyone know when it's coming out? Tariq j Quote
hjmediastudios Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Hi, apparantly there is some sort of starfighter featuring cad bane I'm not exactly sure what it's called That'd be the HH-87 Starhopper. I believe it's already available on the UK Lego Shop site. Quote
Tariq j Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 That'd be the HH-87 Starhopper. I believe it's already available on the UK Lego Shop site. ah, thanks It looks like quite a good set so I'm not sure why lego didn't put it in there catalogue Tariq j Quote
Artanis I Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 ah, thanks It looks like quite a good set so I'm not sure why lego didn't put it in there catalogue Tariq j It's one of the sets with limited availability. What that means in the UK I don't know. (What it means in Australia is that only one retailer chain will have it in stock and it won't be released at the same time as the sets in the catalogue.)

Zilcho Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Is "duel on geonosis an exclusive"? Ad is there any word on the release date of the new Old Republic set in the UK? Quote
