Mr Man Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I assume the Revan minifig is offered in the UK. I'll have just moved to London. My only options seems to be to walk in the store there and buy enough to get one. :P Correct me if I'm wrong. (I doubt I'll have a functioning bank account quick enough to order from the website, I'm literally moving there right about when this is offered) Yes it available over here . Quote

LegoFjotten Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 What's with the pic of the Snowtrooper commander, looks like a Stormtrooper. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Hm, weren't the minifigs that were included in last year's retailer-exclusive sets (i.e. the Jedi Defender and the Starhopper) featured on the 2013 poster? I can't see any minifigs we haven't seen before on the new poster... Combined with the fact that we haven't heard anything of the retailer exclusives yet this could possible indicate that we don't get any this year (which would be the first time since 2008) Quote

Another thing worth mentioning is the 2014 poster for the first wave didn't include the minifigures from the Micro Fighters either. A new Emperor Palpatine minifigure is supposed to be coming in the near future but there's no sign of him here. Quote

A new Emperor Palpatine minifigure is supposed to be coming in the near future but there's no sign of him here. I'm sure that Micro Fighter is coming out in Winter/Spring 2015. It seems like we'll get Micro Fighters yearly, and I can't see one being retail exclusive. We know essentially every set coming out for 2014 for all themes besides some retail exclusives. Quote
Lobot Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 I'm more interested in the new poster for May 4th....it looks suspiciously like the Bespin Duel to me! I'm eternally optimistic that TLG will answer my prayers at some point in the next 5 years!! Quote
Clone OPatra Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 What's with the pic of the Snowtrooper commander, looks like a Stormtrooper. It's the Rebels-style Stormtrooper, and the actual Snowtrooper commander isn't pictured.It's also odd that the 'Imperial Officer' isn't named. He looks quite a bit like Piett. Quote

duboismerci Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) I went to my local Toys R Us and they didn't have the Republic Anti Vehicle Canon At Wal-Mart they had the canon but no AT-AP Are the Toys R us / Wal-Mart / Target exclusive additional sets? Or maybe the Canon is the TRU exclusive and the AT-AP for W-M (this is for Canada. Where winter set were released 1-2 month ago) Last year, were the Umbaran Canon (target) and the barc speeder with sidecar (wal mart) revealed with all the other sets or were they announced after? Conclusion: Are they other sets that are still not announced? (except for the september UCS) Edited April 28, 2014 by duboismerci Quote
will Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) The UK event has started and it looks like it's 15% of all Star Wars sets. Now I need to decide whether to get the UCS x-wing or not... Edit: it's most sets that have a discount (60 out of 82) Edited April 28, 2014 by will Quote
gunm Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 The UK event has started and it looks like it's 15% of all Star Wars sets. Now I need to decide whether to get the UCS x-wing or not... Hm, if that's the deal, I'm not too sure what to get. Amazon is still cheaper for me for most of the stuff I'd be interested in that's over $75. I'm thinking either the Malevolence, which I don't have, or maybe get a regular x-wing and a smaller set, or maybe just a few small sets that total over $75. Any suggestions? Anyone who got Malevolence can vouch for the set? :) Quote
Artanis I Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 The UK event has started and it looks like it's 15% of all Star Wars sets. Now I need to decide whether to get the UCS x-wing or not... Might be a different story in different markets, but in Aus it's most sets. Also, it wouldn't give me the polybag unless I buy the minimum amount (for our case, $100) of SW Lego. (In the past people have managed to get it with any purchase despite the advertising specifying otherwise. Just letting you all know that it doesn't work for me this time.) Quote
Darth Malgus Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 The may the 4th special has started in Australia, picked up the Ewok village, saving my VIP points for sandcrawler later in the week, some stock 15% off. Quote
Robianco Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 I'm torn now... with the discount the Death Star is £15 less than the Sandcrawler. I'll be popping to the Lego store in a couple of hours so I'll let my head make the decision then. All my points will be saved for the Summer wave. At least I can get one of the larger items with them. Quote
BrickG Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Bleerg Why does Luke have such a chiseled face all the sudden? He's like suddenly sculpted and not a kid. Why would they do this? WHY!? Quote
Robianco Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Went for the Sandcrawler. Just need to be very nice to the missus before getting box out of the boot of the car. I think she'll notice the finished set once it was displayed. Quote
legolandia Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 Bleerg Why does Luke have such a chiseled face all the sudden? He's like suddenly sculpted and not a kid. Why would they do this? WHY!? He's probably gone on a diet or the Rebels are not feeding him well. Quote

I'm eternally optimistic that TLG will answer my prayers at some point in the next 5 years!! Looking at the real poster (yay for quick delivery) the scene definitely looks Bespin like, but the figure is all black unfortunately. The only thing it's possible to make out is that the hair is the same as the Tatooine Luke, but the face is different. So not conclusive either way... Quote
