DJ Bricks Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I think Nwe York Comic Con is soon. Yes, but its in October. Anyone know if theres something in September? Quote
Legoman123 Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Yes, but its in October. Anyone know if theres something in September? I think NYCC is the closest convention. That would be a good place to reveal the Slave 1 though. Quote
GallardoLU Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 there is also the Toronto FanExpo, Lego is going to be there, with a Star Wars exclusive set(Rebels Ghost if you've forgotten) it starts on August 29th. Would make sense for them to announce it there if its going to be a Oct, or Nov, release. Quote
namioik Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) I wonder who would be the designer for the set. Usually it's one designer per exclusive per year (except the tower of orthanc which took 3 main designers apparently) Edited August 26, 2014 by namioik Quote
Mencot Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 So, whats the conclusion regarding the UCS Slave-1? - false rumor? - delayed to 2015? - canceled? What do you guys think? We may just get the Slave 1 later this year. I mean it could be a November release, that would explain why we haven't heard anything yet. Hopefuly the rumor is true and it will be relesed this year but it would be Okay (not ok-ey) for me if it would be delay until next years spring (bad budget ) Quote
Rogue Angel Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I'm surprised that there has been no discussion about the new advent calendar. I have always felt these were a waste of money for AFOLs until this year. It comes with a whopping 9 figures! This includes a good assortment of generic figures (sadly no stormtrooper or rebel trooper) Rieekan, Luke and Santa Vader and a festive astromech. Plus, the set comes with a helmet for the clone trooper as well, and there are some nice mini-builds. Quote
Fire spray 31 Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Rogue Angel-Thats because we are all to busy speculating about the future!! Haha but yes it is true it is a good calendar. I plan on picking it up at some point for the figs. Quote
eldiano Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Hmmm cheapest way to build up my new stormtrooper army!!! Quote
Steve309 Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 I was at Fan Expo Toronto and today at Lego was Star Wars give away day. I was able to get the Fan Expo exclusive The Ghost Starship. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5556/14947240186_e9cc347056.jpg And as a free give away today they gave out a minifigure pollybag of a TC-4 Set # 5002122 http://cdn.oldlego.com/images/encyclopedia/star-wars/5002122/Lego5002122-1.jpg Quote

You'll have to let us know what you think of the mini Ghost. Quote

A tradition of sorts for me, and the figs are fairly useful, especially that astromech! Quote
TheWolffe Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Does the clone trooper in the calendar come with a helmet? Or is it just the Santa hat? Quote
will Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Looks like there is a helmet with the weapons rack, as part of one of the other mini sets within it. Quote
nrg Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) New superpack Edited September 1, 2014 by nrg Quote
Blackice200 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 New superpack This literally makes no sense. Plus, I already have the Jedi Intetceptor and cannon. Looks like there is a helmet with the weapons rack, as part of one of the other mini sets within it. Is it phase 2? Quote
just2good Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Any convention coming up? Brick Con is a week before NYCC. That's where they revealed the Parisian and Arkham sets the last two years. Quote
namioik Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Brick Con is a week before NYCC. That's where they revealed the Parisian and Arkham sets the last two years. If it wasn't for the "detective agency" modular we been hearing about, I would definitely place my bets on the slave 1 unveiling. Quote
just2good Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Slave I has 1996 pieces, four minifigures (Stormie, Boba, a Bespin, Han in carbo). It looks cool. Edited September 2, 2014 by just2good Quote
namioik Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Slave I has 1996 pieces, four minifigures (Stormie, Boba, a Bespin, Han in carbo). It looks cool. Where did you see it? And is it the best slave 1 to date, in your opinion? Quote
Fire spray 31 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Yes, I too am curious as to where you saw this? And when can anyone else expect to see it...if you know. Quote
just2good Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Where did you see it? And is it the best slave 1 to date, in your opinion? Yeah, it's the best so far. It's HUGE! But, it still fits Boba in the cockpit. I used my wizard powers to see it. Yes, I too am curious as to where you saw this? And when can anyone else expect to see it...if you know. I cannot say. If the mods are cool with it, I'll post it here tomorrow. First it will be on my YouTube (around 12PM), then when I get back home tomorrow (around 3PM) I'll put it here. Deal?

namioik Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Yeah, it's the best so far. It's HUGE! But, it still fits Boba in the cockpit. I used my wizard powers to see it. Based on the figures, I'm guessing the scene came from episode 5. Any platform or just the ship itself? Quote
Fire spray 31 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) I am also curious how they achieved the side cowling. Ugh the suspense is killing me. What is your youtube channel? That or PM me : ) I have been waiting forever for this thing. *Nevermind I see all that info in your post. Edited September 2, 2014 by Fire spray 31 Quote
