GuyDudeMan27 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 I really can't wait to see any images of the Tydirium. I've been working on one for a few months and I've found that making an accurate cockpit at system scale is quite hard. I honestly could care less about the figs. I would only care if it included one of the new stormtroopers, or the last biker scout. I really don't want an update of him. Quote

GuyDudeMan27 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 The new ucs tie fighter ? http://hpics.li/8eaae15 I Found this here : http://cache.lego.co....r2=-2142270942 Interesting. The poster looks like the old Vader helmet mold, even though we've seen what looks like a new mold. The Tie is the most interesting part. The blue cockpit is kind of off putting. The build looks like how a UCS Tie would look. It looks a bit uninspired, if anything. I thought they might use some curved peices for the ball, but I guess not. I wonder when we'll see the set officially revealed. Quote
namioik Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Very interesting indeed... Thanks for the find! Quote
Darth Malgus Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 That poster says 2014, not 2015 I noticed that, not too sure what i think of the cockpit area, seems like a step back from the interceptor all those years ago... Quote
Arkanta974 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) The file name of the poster is : LSW_15w03 and we don't have a tie fighter for 2014, so... However the tie fighter right of vader head have a good view of the new cockpit and we see two red missiles too ( ) Edit : May be a new tie fighter for rebels ?

Darth Malgus Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 How long before we get product descriptions from London toyfair? Quote

I'm guessing that's the new UCS because I really don't see TLG releasing two TIE. It's like having two pizzeria store in one center, conflict of interest. But then again we saw the x wing in 2012 and then 2013. So long story short, nothing is confirmed... Quote
Tariq j Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Not long till the London Toy Fair, it starts at 9:00am. Quote
Jedi-Bendu Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Even though I know the likes of Han, Luke and Leia are the logical characters to put in the Tydirium set, I hope they put an entirely new character in the set: Orrimaarko (Prune Face). Ok, he isn’t seen on Endor and/or in the shuttle….but he was there during the briefing where the rebel strike team was assembled. Still…in september the Episode VII are coming. Every set will have a new minifig (except maybe Chewbacca, 3PO and R2; they’re the ones who are likely to haven’t changed a lot). No doubt some of the Episode VII minifigs will require a new sculpt. Maybe all the new 2015 sculpts have to be maded for the Episode VII sets so that the OT/PT sets will just use excisting molds/sculpts? Suppose TLG has to choose between a new mold for a Dignitary (for the Duel set) or a main Episode VII set (Kylo Ren?). I bet they’ll go for Kylo. This could mean we’ll be getting ‘the usual suspects’ in the Shuttle (Han, Luke, Leia in Endor gear + chewie/rebel/droid) and Duel (Vader, Sheev, Luke, Royal guards) sets. I hope those Bothan spies will return with pix from the toy fair soon… Quote

hachiroku Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Huh? Thats a lot bigger than 9492 It's bigger, but not enough to cost 230€. How big is it? Around a 1,50*(a 9492)? It's should be a 120€-140€ set, and it isn't a complicated ship like the X-Wing with the s-foil system. It's just the two panels and a brick-built cockpit. Quote
will Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Yeah if that is the UCS TIE it's a pretty easy pass for me. I'll wait for better pics/confirmation, but I thought 9492 was pretty good. Looking forward to the shuttle pics though. Quote
The Kid Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 My appointment at the LEGO stand at Toy Fair isn't until 4pm GMT, but I did just catch a glimpse of the Final Duel set over the balcony... it's basically laid out the same as Palpatine's Arrest (from what I could see), with two Royal Guards. I'll have more info at 5ish but no doubt other sites will have reported by then. Just thought I'd offer a tidbit to keep you all going... Quote
Robianco Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I agree... If that is indeed a leak of the Tie then I won't bother as it looks pretty ugly in those shots. It's certainly bigger than 9492 as people have said but... I can't really tell if it's equal scaling to 9493 > UCS Red Five. Edited January 20, 2015 by Robianco Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 And here's Barry's coverage: http://brickfanatics.co.uk/london-toy-fair-2015-report/ Too bad the report's rather vague in terms of minifigs, but it does sound promising Quote
GuyDudeMan27 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 And here's Barry's coverage: http://brickfanatics.co.uk/london-toy-fair-2015-report/ Too bad the report's rather vague in terms of minifigs, but it does sound promising Interesting. A camo chewbacca and a new print for Vader... again. The final duel actually sounds like a good set. It sounds like they didn't skimp on the play features. I wonder if the flash speeder is really that bad... Quote
Arkanta974 Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Alright the flash speeder is the big joke, only two figures for 39.99£ ? Come on... Quote
Tariq j Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 The new minifigure line up sounds good, Tie fighter sounds alright... Quote
markw Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Not sure about a camo Chewie, thought he was naturally camouflaged? Edited January 20, 2015 by markw Quote
will Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) I haven't watched the films in a while - but did Chewy ever have camo on? Either way, the Shuttle is the set at the top of my buy list. I'm quite picky now, as I haven't really got room for any more! edit: yep, same question as markw Edited January 20, 2015 by will Quote
