Didn't know where else to ask this so I will just do it here:

I'm looking for a parts list/LXF file for an AT-OT (only that part of 10195). I've searched nearly everywhere, but can't find it. 
Even the LXF thread has the file removed from the page so I can't grab it from there (didn't want to post in that thread as people only post LXF files of sets). 

Does anyone have a parts list of the AT-OT or LXF of the 10195? Or a link where to find them? Would help me a lot :) 

Don't know where but I have found the instructions. Do you want me to build an LXF file for you? If you still can't find it send me a PM. I'll start if I have time

After some more intensive searching I've managed to find the correct LXF file for it (on Lego.com of all sites), but thank you anyway :) 

Here is the link for it: http://ldd.us.lego.com/cs-cz/gallery/18b50c5b-d796-4838-a1b5-1ce3fccf760c

Any one know if this ship has a prior history in Star Wars other than Rogue One?

It was also just seen in the Rebels season 3 finale I believe.

And it first appeared in ROTJ.

Do you guys think that Lego should use sand blue instead of lbg for tie fighters?

I think it makes some 'dull' looking sets like the AT-ST somewhat more unique so I wouldn't mind seeing them do that for other sets.

Do you maybe have an example?

Sand blue would only work if they released a model based on the early Kenner TIE Fighter toys. Those were an obvious sand/dull blue. The ILM models were more of a light bluish-grey, and had just the slightest tint of blue to them. I think in the special editions of the films they appeared closer to the Kenner toys, but I'd be fine with what LEGO did for the TIE Striker or AT-ST -- mainly LBG with a hint of sand blue.

So, do you guys have any idea on how Lego could make a set with Darth Plageuis? I would think that they would only release him in a promotional polybag (like for may the 4th).

There's really no set to make. His entire legacy was put into Star Wars Legends, so there's nothing canon to base him off of. He'd be a polybag if anything.

That was what I was thinking. He would make a excellent may the 4th promo I think he will be one eventually.

Well it all depends if he turns out to be Snoke

Well in that case he will be out in fall .

Well, Palpatine does mention him and his abilities in ROTS, so technically he is canon.

Got a few of them 75021 [and they do rock!!} .Thanks for the info my friends this will help greatly.

They are pretty sturdy. Currently I have 2 and will buy more in the future. The only flimsy pieces are the anti personnel laser cannons that can easily be put back on.

@KevinYoung - I'll merge this with the general Q&A thread (link) as it doesn't really need a dedicated one

Right, but his physical appearance, history, and other details are now up in the air. I'm sure if he's ever produced, he'll be a Muun, but I still don't see him being made a figure anytime soon, unfortunately.

His existence is canon, but any of the details in Legends is now not. Only thing we know is that Palpatine said he was wise & powerful, could create life, and was killed by his apprentice (we assume who that is) after teaching him everything. He could be a purple rathtar with a magic carpet for all we know. Until he makes another (confirming) appearance we officially don't know what he would look like, so TLG won't make a minifig of him.

I'd go as far as to say that Palpatine telling a story about a character that may or may not have ever existed is canon.

Yeah, you can go that far too. I tend to believe that the story is at least mostly true

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis "the wise"?

[Artanis I]

Just out of curiosity, has Assault On Hoth been discounted anywhere else? (I understand it is only available through Lego, so probably not, but anyway...) In Australia it is exclusive to Target (& S@H), who yesterday discounted it (and the Batcave) 50%. I heard it sold out in minutes. (Probably mostly to local scalpers.) Obviously it didn't sell well previously, but it's not even 1 year since first release! Not a great UCS, not a great playset for $400, but for $200 (AUD) it's an excellent deal.

Any other UCS that has taken such a huge hit?

UCS B-wing was 50% off the online Lego store when they decided to retire it. 

I also remember Toys R Us and Wallmart selling their remaining Tumblers and Ewok village at like 30% off.

Currently Assault on Hoth is 10% on amazon.ca.

Assault On Hoth was on 30% discount last Christmas where I live, and as I just mentioned in the other thread, it is possible this may happen in our area if the sale trends continue.

I picked it up at 20% off last year when I thought that was the best deal we were going to get... haha

[brobert]

I need advice good people of Eurobricks. Local TRU has 20% off Lego sets for a week and it got me thinking...I wouldn't mind a UCS TIE, and at 20% off I could get it around 180-190 bucks. (normal price here is 220)

But I'm not sure if it would be worth waiting for the May 4th promotion...As I saw on the EU store calendar, TLG will offer a couple of discounts, but I don't think there will be an amount like this... what should I do, go for this promo or wait for the 4th?
