July 31, 201113 yr This one probably can't be answered atm but what happens to Ahsoka between CW and Revenge of the Sith? Since RotS was released before CW and Lucas never considered Anakin having a padawan at that time, he created yet another one of the bazillion plot inconsistencies. I suspect we'd know her fate at the end of CW series. Possible fates include: 1: She was killed 2: She was expelled from Jedi 3: She was still his padawan and was left behind in the outter rim while Anakin and Obi Wan went to clean up the mess at Coruscant 4: Her apprentice was transferred to a different Jedi 5: She left Jedi Order due to conflict of interest Personally I think it's #3. A few (likely unreliable) sources suggested that more than 100 (possibly 200) Jedi were still alive at the end of Revenge of the Sith movie, all scattered across the Galaxy.

Since RotS was released before CW and Lucas never considered Anakin having a padawan at that time, he created yet another one of the bazillion plot inconsistencies. This would probably be best asked in one of the CW threads in Culture and Multimedia. We really don't know. The majority of us hope she's killed. It's the best way to fit her into the storyline. In an interview published in the CW-edition TV Guide in '08, Eckstein said that "something happens to her" and she's not in Sith, but supposedly a fate hasn't been decided on.
July 31, 201113 yr How does the new "crown" piece of the new Darth Maul look on the old (first) Darth Maul fig? A picture would be appreciated.

As the Dr said, many possible arguments have been thrown around, particularly in the cartoon series topics in the Culture & Multimedia section. This question has nothing to do with Lego, this topic is about SW Lego questions. How does the new "crown" piece of the new Darth Maul look on the old (first) Darth Maul fig? A picture would be appreciated. I too would like to see this, I have considered skipping the new Maul and going for the old one & getting the Zabrak horns for him instead. I prefer the older face to the newer one. (those eyes are too close together... you know what they say about people like that ) I just noticed that the new minifig still hasn't been parted out for inventory on Bricklink.

August 1, 201113 yr Sorry for the quick photography but here you go - it lines up perfectly Hey he doesn't look like he is being sick there .
August 1, 201113 yr This is probably a stupid question and may not belong here, but to what store is the new Naboo Starfighter exclusive to in the U.S.? Target?
August 1, 201113 yr Does anyone know if there is any life sized brick-built Star wars minifigures? I know for sure that there is a Darh Vader and R2-D2 at the LEGOLAND Discovery Center by Chicago. I'm sure that there are others though.
August 1, 201113 yr I'm sure that there are others though. I've seen Chewbacca, R2-D2, C-3PO, Captain Rex, and Vader at LLC. Edited August 1, 201113 yr by Brickdoctor
August 2, 201113 yr Sorry for the quick photography but here you go - it lines up perfectly Thanks. That looks better
August 2, 201113 yr Does anyone know if there is any life sized brick-built Star wars minifigures? I've seen Vader in Hamleys in Glasgow, and chewie R2 and another Vader in FAO Swartz in New York, so there are a few copies around...
August 2, 201113 yr I've seen Vader in Hamleys in Glasgow, and chewie R2 and another Vader in FAO Swartz in New York, so there are a few copies around... ~Yeah, I've seen a Vader in London Hamleys - but I could be pedantic about whether it was "life size" - as it was well under my height - and I'm only 6 foot 2"
August 3, 201113 yr Umm, two questions actually: 1) When do the winter wave sets usually become available (in Europe)? I heard that October is the usual time. Correct? 2) I considered to add some magnet figs to my collection. What to think of them? Are they fully functioning? Can they be changed (torso/head etc.)? EDIT: Saw a Vader in my favored Galeria, too. It's about 4-5 feet tall and usually fixed to the gound. Looked as funny as impressive how he stood between a bunch of excited kids.

August 3, 201113 yr 2) I considered to add some magnet figs to my collection. What to think of them? Are they fully functioning? Can they be changed (torso/head etc.)? The new ones are glued to the magnet, but if you remove them with warm water (there's a topic around here somewhere on that), they are fully functional.
August 3, 201113 yr The new ones are glued to the magnet, but if you remove them with warm water (there's a topic around here somewhere on that), they are fully functional. Ah, thanks for this quick heads up. I guess i'll try one set.
August 3, 201113 yr Ah, thanks for this quick heads up. I guess i'll try one set. ...and I found the topic. It's here.
August 4, 201113 yr Sorry for the quick photography but here you go - it lines up perfectly Yeah I like it , I so hate the new narrow eyed Maul. I hate when TLG goes backward in design and details.
August 4, 201113 yr I am currently undertaking a build and I have a few questions regarding scale building. So I am currently in the progess of building a 52(ish) inch long Mini Figured Imperial Star Destroyer and I wanted to run my calculations by some of you to see what you all think. This is what I did, I took the 1600m converted it to feet, then divided it by 52 inches. What I got was 101. I used the 101 to find the other dimensions of the ISD, ie width and height. This is what I came up with using the dimensions from Wookiepedia Length 1600meter = 5250 feet (5250/101)= 52in Width 1015meter = 3331 feet (3331/101) = 33in Height 448m = 1470 feet (1470/101) = 15in Scale is 1in = 101ft or 1212in Now from what I can figure my dimensions are fairly close. My concern is in regards to the height. The 10030 UCS ISD height was 16in (without the stand) and is a lot shorter in length then my model. Did Lego spoof their scale? Is my scale wrong and my math completely screwed up? I have the frame complete and I am having issues getting the right angle and height for the top and bottom plates. Rook was helpful, but I am looking for further guidance. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Jake Edited August 4, 201113 yr by ISDIronClaw

August 4, 201113 yr Devastator gallery 1 Devastator gallery 2 Avenger gallery 1 Avenger gallery 2 A few more Thanks for the pictures, I found those already and were most helpful. I am just wondering if my math for the height and width is correct for the length of scale that I am building.
August 4, 201113 yr The LEGO Group likes to throw proportions out of whack when working in the UCS scale, so if you've already consulted pictures of the studio model and adjusted your figures accordingly, I'm going to guess your calculations are correct.
August 4, 201113 yr Couldn't that just be a result of the limited amount of angles possible using Lego parts? The proportions of the ISD has been tuned to fit the available wedge plate types. Other angles needs some kind of interpolation, creating steps and jagged edges. If the model is large enough, this could work, but on the UCS ISD, it would be too visible. The UCS Falcon is a good example of a shape approximation, creating the sense of a circular hull with wedge plates... In your planned build that is 132 cm (in my measurements), interpolating the hull-lines in small steps could work. Give it a try... Edited August 4, 201113 yr by Illuwatar
August 4, 201113 yr Yeah I like it , I so hate the new narrow eyed Maul. I hate when TLG goes backward in design and details. The red and black print actually lines up better than on the new Maul face!!
August 4, 201113 yr Can someone tell me when in ESB to look for the red protocol droid? I watched again the other night, and seem to be missing it...
