Cape printing? I didn't see any in the pics.

I doubt it. And really, I hope not, because I am going broke the past few years from Lego: Ewok Village, Jabba's Palace/Sail Barge, Sandcrawler, RGS, most of the cheaper sets (which add up), this year's AT-AT, AT-AP, Cantina, upcoming Slave I........I was looking forward to next year for it to be my break/catch-up year, so I can pick up sets I missed out on. Trying to relax a bit in 2015 would be impossible with a new UCS Flacon, with all of the new characters (and they would only put the female figs in that set, so that if you want them, you have to spend $500).

I really hope that they just do more junk from Rebels, like "UCS Bust of Zeb", so that none of it will appeal to me. Because I still really want the UCS X-Wing....

But so far, 2015 is looking cheap for me: Only the Skyhopper, the Shadow/Geonosis Troops, and (maybe) the ITT. But I know that Lego will ruin me, and release Cloud City ($300) and Millenium Falcon ($500), in which they would include Beru, Sabine, 4-LOM, Zuckuss, and Shaak Ti. JUST to kill me.......

^Sorry.....but it is soooooooo exciting!

Just going to say one thing, and then I promise nothing more:

Apologizing doesn't make it acceptable for you to continue posting off-topic after someone tells you not to. It only means that you know you're making an off-topic post, and you decide to do it anyways. If a moderator tells you to stop a discussion, then it is over. It doesn't mean that you get in one or two final comments while apologizing.

Says who?

Pic COULD be real. You also called the new Stormtrooper helmets fake....well, they're as good as confirmed as real. So...

While I'd love a non-human villain, the fact remains the so-called "Episode VII villain" picture screams "Yuuzhan Vong" more than anything else...and they're not gonna use the Yuuzhan Vong. Most ambitious and, perhaps, epic storyline of the EU, but the Vong themselves were among the most polarizing of EU species. They had a terrible inconsistent visual (the book covers & most artwork depicted them in such a way that the idea of ANY of them wearing an Ooglith Masquer and passing themselves off as human was laughable) that was just a mess, and felt like "Organic Borg" minus the lack of individuality. Their tech was interesting, and something largely unseen in the GFFA (which was part of the point, getting away from Dark Jedi and Imperial leftovers), but perhaps was a bit too 'out-there' as a whole; other realms of sci-fi are better suited to exploring truly alien cultures.

Anyway, point being there's absolutely nothing to indicate it's a real 'leak', while the Stormie helm has some weight behind it.

^AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

NO EPISODE VII TALK!! I WAS TOLD NOT TO, AND NOW YOU GUYS ARE, AND REMOVE YOUR COMMENTS BEFORE WE GET YELLED AT!!!!!!

In terms of Lego Star Wars 2015: "I doubt that this will be a villain made into Lego form." I'll phrase it like that, so it doesn't violate anything. I cannot find that SW VII thread, though.....

What about that cool X-Wing from Ep 7? I would like to see how they would pull that off. :)

I'm actually quite looking forward to that, to go with the CW Z-95 (since both, at one point or another, were/are Z-95s)...but sadly we probably won't see it until (hopefully early) 2016, or perhaps December 2015. Still, it'd make a fantastic "Episode VII Preview" set in Summer 2015, given that it's been revealed already! We saw a pilot in that clip, he could be minifigurized, and by then we'll probably know what some of the cast looks like so possibly we could get a couple other figures there, too.

But, that's just speculation...no rumors as of yet.

A reminder: People come to read these pictures and rumors topics expecting to read about sets that we expect to see. Episode VII sets may be inevitable, but we have no source that has actually told us of any such sets at this time. Continued discussion of Episode VII sets here is not only off-topic, but it is also confusing for other readers who now have to dig through posts that have nothing to do with sets that are rumored to be released in 2015. No matter how logical your case may be, discussion of any sets that you think we'll see or that you want to see from Episode VII belongs in Future Star Wars Sets.

Your screaming and use of all-caps is unwarranted. Remember that EB is an AFOL site, and as such we expect a certain level of quality and maturity from our members when they post. Furthermore, as you are not a member of the EB staff, please avoid minimodding and telling other members what to do. If you see a post that you think is against the guidelines, please use the 'Report' button so that a staff member can step in.

Please refer to our Site Guidelines:

Staff: [...] Similarly, if you're not staff don't act like you are. Telling new members site rules from time to time is one thing, but don't make a habit of being a mini-modder. Use the "Report" button instead.

So....what do we all think about the new ITT (Imperial Troop Transport)? I personally think that it is a HUGE disappointment, as I was hoping for the Kenner version. And is it confirmed that they will be Rebels Stormtroopers? I really wish that they were regular....

Are you referring to the vehicle in general or has there been any show of the Lego build for it?

I cant really judge it until I see it. As far as we know, its a battlepack, so it could be small, which is good because of the price, and if I buy more of them and with a little moding, I can make it bigger, I will buy it, because I really like that vehicle. The stormtrooper design from the series, doesnt bother me at all.

Nope, people are even disappointed with something without even seeing it :wink::wacko:

Basically you are right.

Nevertheless - in this special case - an OT fan could be disappointed without even seeing pis. If this really were a REBELS set, we can expect to get the stormie design of the series. This would disappoint people like me who long for a small set containig regular stormies of the new OT design. Except for the ISD they are hard to get. But OT fans want them and intend to buy multiples of a BP or at least small set. We want the 'original' soldiers and not the comic dudes. :wink:

With the REBELS series deserving and getting a lot of attention in regards of upcoming sets, there is plenty of chance to throw in a stormie here and there. Meanwhile OT sets become few and far between. Therefore i see enough reason to be disappointed by the mere knowlegde of the ITT being one more REBELS set.
