Wout Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Well, I read my own post earlier and I said I'm not sure because the script on the boxes was so small, but It looked like it was Jango Fett I'm also not sure about young Boba in the advent but he is on the front of the box taking opening his christmas present or something like that and they have always put only the figs who were inside on the front. So I'm not sure but there is a probability our young naughty bountyhunter is inside this set. Quote
JediJoel98 Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Hi can someone tell me when the new star wars sets are hitting the stores in the uk. Quote
Legokid98 Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 When will we see preliminary pictures of the 2013 summer Star Wars sets ? Quote
namioik Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Forward to the 1:06 mark.This MIGHT answer some questions regarding the "tank droid" being in only episode 3 Quote
North Lego Star Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Thank You very much for all the information Wout! Well, here's my opinion on each set from the way they have been described... -Corporate Alliance Tank Droid: Although I really thought this was going to be a Kashyyyk based set, it's nice to see Jango in a pretty cheap set. I may have to consider picking this one up if all the minifigs are new and the Tank Droid is okay, but I'm going to have to wait for pictures. -Duel on Geonosis: This one sounds just great as we finally see some updated and new minifigs. I'm also glad to hear its cheap because I was fearing lego would include a Solar Sailor in the set making probally a 70$ set, but since its cheap and comes with some great minifigs, I'll pick it up for sure. -Homing Spider Droid: This one is okay I guess, I was thinking lego would include a new jedi in this set, but I guess not. Still I hope to see some Geonosian Battle Droids out of this set, but I probally won't pick it up. -JEK-14's Sealth Starfighter: I don't get why lego even thought about making this one. I'm in sounds like includes a decent amount of minifigs, but I think another set would have fit in more into this wave. -AT-TE Walker: I'm excited to hear that Coleman Tebor is being made into a minifig, but there's not much else to be excited about. I'm also upset that there's only one clone in this set, come on lego it would have been nice to give us at least a a clone to actually control the thing. I won't be picking up this set, but I'm probally going to buy Coleman off of ebay. -Jabba's Sail Barge: I'm not happy about this one at all, but I may pick up Max Rebo later on, but not the set itself for sure. -Republic Gunship: This one sounds pretty good, I'm glad you get a good amount of new minifgs in this set too. If lego doesn't make a Geonosian Arena Set this year, I'll probally end up buying. -Mandalorian Speeder: YES!!!! This one just from the the minifigs included are a buy for me. I've been wondering when lego would make a CW Darth Maul and it finally happened. I'm also thinking we'll see some new Mandalorian minifigs out of this too, so this one is at the top of my purchase list! @Wout: I was wondering if you would be kind enough to answer a few questions of mine listed below... 1. In all the Geonosian based sets, were all the battle droids and clones listed as new? 2. Was JEK-14's Sealth Starfighter based off the clone wars? 3. Were there more clone troopers listed in the AT-TE? 4. In the Duel on Geonosis set, was there like a fighting area or docking bay or something along those lines? 5. In the Advent Calender, was Boba from Epiosde 2 or based off the Clone Wars? I would greatly appreciate it if you answered these questions at some point, Thanks! Quote
Only Sinner Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 This year or next would be the most likely because of the AOTC re-release in 3-D. It's not as iconic as Boba's so there is less incentive to produce it from TLG perspective. About the Slave-1, why is Jango's version not getting more attention? TLG has already made 3 Boba's. What's up with that? Boba's ship is only on film for about six seconds in two scenes in all of SW. Jango had plenty of scenes and his Slave-1 was on screen for like eight minutes, so relatively speaking, THAT one should get more love. Quote

But I do agree with you Jango's version deserves more attention, not only having a prominant role in AOTC but in the second season of The Clone Wars as well. Regardless which version they go with for their next revision, I hope they finally give the ship a more accurate wing mechanism. Quote
Darth Malgus Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Hi All, first time posting in this forum. I have to say that from the preliminary pictures that the Sail Barge looks a tad disappointing although potentially getting Ree Yees and Max Rebo would be good additions as the would fit in well with the throne room set anyway. Personally, I think another Gunship wasn't needed although from the figure list this seems to be from the movie and not the CW series, at least that is one positive. It would've been nice to get an upgrade on the Slave 1 (Jango's), perhaps that may be the UCS set this year. Interesting that there appears to be very little ROTS listed. I wonder if this is a result of the 2 movies being released this year instead of the 1 per year the Lucas mentioned previously, I imagine the Disney acquisition had something to do with this. Perhaps we will get some ROTS updates in 2014? I am a fan of the Old Republic sets as I read the EU so any more sets from the game would be welcomed from my perspective. My thoughts anyway. Quote

Perhaps we will get some ROTS updates in 2014? You're probably right about that. With the planning it takes to make sets Lego probably decided not to mess with the line-up they had just because Lucas moved up the release for Ep 3. Plus we've had a pretty steady stream of Ep 3 sets lately so it's not as if we need any more right now. Quote
Legokid98 Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 I think we will get jangos slave 1 in the winter of 2013 Quote
Piranha Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 I cleaned up this thread a bit by moving the entire discussion on the Naboo Royal Cruiser to the Future SW sets speculation thread. This topic is for discussion on pictures and rumors for 2013 sets, there have been no rumors so far on a Naboo Royal Cruiser for 2013, so the speculation posts have been moved. Quote
Pumpkin Pie Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 I do not know if this is the actual set but I was looking over this picture and saw another mandalorian ship. could this be the speeder of Summer 2013? Quote
Legokid98 Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 When will we see preliminary images of the summer 2013 Star Wars sets. Please answer ? Quote
jmagaletta Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) I do not know if this is the actual set but I was looking over this picture and saw another mandalorian ship. could this be the speeder of Summer 2013? There definitely is but I do not think that will be it. I think it will be an as of yet unseen speeder that will be in the Death Watch Arc on TCW this season. Or a speeder similar to the ones used in the episode "A Friend in Need" Either way I don't think Maul will have special legs. If you look in the trailer for season 5. He does not have the same legs as the one from Mother Talzin that was injured by Hondo. When will we see preliminary images of the summer 2013 Star Wars sets. Please answer ? No one knows. This time last year the Winter Wave wasn't even released in the US yet. And there have been prelim of the Barge and RGS, but are stamped "Confidential" Edited January 3, 2013 by jmagaletta Quote
UnknownClone Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Forward to the 1:06 mark. This MIGHT answer some questions regarding the "tank droid" being in only episode 3 The video tells you it is a deleted scene from something because that isn't episode 2 at all with those graphics. Get a video of a scene from episode 2 and then your point is valid Edited January 4, 2013 by Piranha Quoted media removed Quote
Zzz Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 You're probably right about that. With the planning it takes to make sets Lego probably decided not to mess with the line-up they had just because Lucas moved up the release for Ep 3. Plus we've had a pretty steady stream of Ep 3 sets lately so it's not as if we need any more right now. Adding to this, it seems as if TLC is avoiding to release any Episode III clones in the past years. We got 5 sets and ONE clone trooper minifig. I strongly believe we'll get one or two E III sets (with troopers) in January 2014. BUt in general, one could say that the different style of the CW minifigs and the whole 1.5 armor story really messed up army building clones in the past 5 years. Quote
Masked Builder Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Most of those polys don't do much for me, that Republic frigate looks nice though. The video tells you it is a deleted scene from something because that isn't episode 2 at all with those graphics. Get a video of a scene from episode 2 and then your point is valid It's a scene that was never finished. Quote
Darth Malgus Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 I hope that there are other ships done than another Mandalorian, with Pre Vizsla's ship last year, the battle pack the year before that and the rumored speeder this year I'd say 3 in 3 years is probably enough, I imagine that Mando's would most likely be in Ep VII as they've been in II, V & VI at some capacity. I'd like to see a few other creations from Lego, The Old Republic is getting a run with a few more products as it seems EU has found a niche in the SW market, a few more playsets would be nice, however everything is market driven. My hope is for a new Tie Interceptor as the last one was a while ago and if there has been a few A-Wings recently perhaps a new interceptor to pursue them shouldn't be out of the question either. Polybags, its a shame we don't see them down here in Australia, they cost a fortune if you do get them in, otherwise its wait for May the 4th sale at S@H. Quote
legoboy12345678/David Hall Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 The video tells you it is a deleted scene from something because that isn't episode 2 at all with those graphics. Get a video of a scene from episode 2 and then your point is valid Its from the Behind the Scenes on the AOTC DVD, thats an animatic, what animators present to Lucas and his supervisors, some made it to final, some didn't this is how most CGI heavy films work.

Legokid98 Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 So is the new lego jango fett confirmed ? Quote

Deleted scene means it never showed in the actual film therefor the tank droid should still be classed as episode 3 only. So maybe the new tank droid is ep 3 we won't know until it gets released (if it gets released) Quote
Legokid98 Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Does anyone think we will get cloud city again. Quote
Basteq Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Does anyone think we will get cloud city again. I hope we do NOT. It's pretty boring getting remakes over and over. Quote
The Joker1 Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 @Basteq I think a lot of fans would like a remake of cloud city as it would... Give us a new better design with new parts Give us some more detailed new figures Mean we dont have to pay the mad price tag of the original Personaly i would rather have a new cloud city than a new Jabbas barge or Republic gunship. Anyone else agree? Quote

Anyone else agree? That's probably true if they could come up totaly new design of Cloud City. But look what we have from clissic series this year: 4th A-Wing and 2nd Jabba's Barge. Only Rancor'e Pit made my day :) Edited January 4, 2013 by Basteq Quote
