North Lego Star Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I'm starting to wonder what the new Stormtroopers in the Imperial Star Destroyer are going to look like, I don't know really what they add to make them look any better, if anything I wouldn't be suprised if Lego turned that set into a Rebels Based set and put the new Rebels versions of the Stormtroopers and Vader in the set, I don't know though.

You got me - for a second i beame afraid that this calamity could actually happen. But since Vader is being included in the ISD and not this skull thingy Inquisitor is part of the set and since the ship wasn't part of the 'Rebels' presentation at Nuremberg, i guess that the ISD will fit with the other OT (classics) sets of the wave.

Do we know for sure that the stormies in the new ISD will have new prints rebels or not? or is this speculation? Quote
montgocloud Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Do we know for sure that the stormies in the new ISD will have new prints rebels or not? or is this speculation? Speculation. I'm going to say that they are OT based; they definitely would have included the Inquisitor if it was for Rebels. Quote
Robert_88 Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Do we know for sure that the stormies in the new ISD will have new prints rebels or not? or is this speculation? The set doesn't have the new Rebels packaging so they should be normal Stormtroopers. Quote
wesker Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Here's a side by side comparison with the recent storm trooper in ewok village and the rebels version http://i61.tinypic.com/2qx02m0.jpg Nice comparison. The classic Stormtrooper is definitely the better figure. Just give it some leg printing and it would be perfect. Quote
namioik Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Nice comparison. The classic Stormtrooper is definitely the better figure. Just give it some leg printing and it would be perfect. Thank you :) I try I try Quote
Robianco Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Nice comparison. The classic Stormtrooper is definitely the better figure. Just give it some leg printing and it would be perfect. I was thinking the same thing... just BL the legs from the Rebels version and that's the perfect Stormtrooper. Quote
jnd2k3 Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 The green Twilek girl from the second Ryloth episode would need to have a lot of stuff retconned, since she has a different name, lives in a village miles or continents away from Syndulla and was shown to have a father (but they could retcon into something stupid like that he was babysitting Numa while Syndulla was fighting against droids in the capitol). The unnamed tan Twilek from the third episode could work but the lego fig is obviously green and looks like a final design. Thanks. I actually went back and checked out the episode afterwards and came to the same conclusion (doh!). Not to mention Hera was probably yet to be born during the Clone Wars. Quote
Fives Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Wow, those figs look really cool! Zeb looks really interesting. Not a huge fan of the orange outfit, but that's fine. Syndulla also looks cool. The Stormtrooper, while wierd, looks really good! I like the printing on the whole fig, although it's a shame we weren't treated to a new helmet mold. I'm most interested in the Kanan character. From his silhouette, you can easily tell he has a new hairpiece, which is always exciting. Overall, these Rebels sets are looking really good. Definitely a breath of fresh air after the CW. Can't wait for them to release the Inquisitor fig, and just more Imperial stuff in general. Quote
Darth Punk Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) For those in the u.s, lego shop at home has the winter wave of Star Wars. They are going to be available Feb. 17. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Star-Wars-ByTheme Edited February 1, 2014 by Darth Punk Quote
Legoman123 Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) I am really looking forward to seeing the finalised Mos Eisley Cantina, Imperial Star Destroyer and AT-AT. Edited February 1, 2014 by Legoman123 Quote
OBI-WAN37 Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) For those in the u.s, lego shop at home has the winter wave of Star Wars. They are going to be available Feb. 17. http://shop.lego.com...ar-Wars-ByTheme http://shop.lego.com...ar-Wars-ByTheme Does anybody know why, in the link I just gave, that Canada Shop@home only have 3 sets that say "coming soon" and the u.s shop@home, which usually gets almost everything Canada gets at the same time, have all (10?) sets which also say "coming soon Feb. 17th"? I really hope the other sets aren't not distributed to Canada, that would suck, and I also hope that we get them around the same time as the U.S. Does anybody know what's going on here please?

legos486 Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Now what could the stormtrooper face be? Quote
Freddy Bricker Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the link! Looks like Zeb is a Bothan after all [snip] http://www.starwars-...guren-ghost.jpg Wow, another Twi'lek, I can never get enough of those! These Rebels sets are looking great, but I don't think I'll buy even one until 2015. Also hope I don't get in trouble for quoting this image, as it's from page 163 and I am currently commenting on page 165. Edited February 1, 2014 by Brickdoctor Please don't quote pictures. Quote
DarthPotato Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Looking at the prices for the winter wave in the US, I'm disappointed that the microfighters are $10, but the rest of the prices actually look pretty good. $15 for Battle of Salucemai was not what I was expecting and I could have swore the AT-AP was going to be $70, so it being $60 was also a pleasant surprise. Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) The pricing on the Winter wave sets are really reasonable. I don't believe any of the sets are going to break your wallet. I do feel the Microfighters sets should be in the $6.99-$7.99 range. Edited February 1, 2014 by Sir_Basil_Ashton Quote
Tereglith Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I don't mind the Microfighters being $10, since all of them are within spitting distance of 100 pieces. They don't have the sheer bulk of plastic that the planets had, but they have much more 'proper lego'. Star Wars has really been pretty reasonably priced for a while. We're certainly far away from the worst excesses of 2008-10 era sets like the Solar Sailer or Cad Bane's Speeder. Even so, it's kind of shocking that the battle on Saluecemi is only $15. I'd think that with the battle packs edged up in price to $13 they might have abandoned the $15 price point altogether, but apparently not. Droids are cheap, I guess! The summer wave looks like it'll have good value for money as well, with the exception, perhaps, of the snowspeeder. Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) At the $14.99 price point and 178 pieces, The Battle on Saleucami is a real bargain. I know droids aren't the priciest minifigs but they're great for building an army to battle your clones. Edited February 2, 2014 by Sir_Basil_Ashton Quote
arc Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I agree with the above posts, the pricing for the winter wave is cheaper than I expected, and the battle of unpronounceable random planet is great for the price. although I would have liked to see a proper droid battle pack. Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 unpronounceable random planet I assume you're referring to Saleucami, which is pronounced Suh-loo-cuh-my. Quote
hjmediastudios Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Really? I always that it was "say-loo-sawm-i." Nevertheless, I'm surprised it's only $15. With the figure lineup, I was expecting $20 at least. Quote

Where did you see these prices at? The Rebel sets are looking amazing. Can't Wait to buy them. Quote
ChiefPie Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 I believe I saw the prices on the lego store saying its comeing Feb 17 :D Quote
arc Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Where did you see these prices at? lego.com now has them listed. they will be available for purchase February 17th.Edit: ninja'd by the pie guy. Edited February 2, 2014 by arc Quote
