Vader Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Interesting...What's the betting this thread will reach 100+ pages? I'm a fan of the novels part of the EU, but haven't caught any of the series so some of this will be lost on me. I'll still get the sets and research them on-line. I'll reserve judgement until I see pics, but so far... interesting. P.S. EU-wise, what I really want are either Darth Vader's Jedi Interceptor or a Stealth-X 100 Pgs? hell were going for 200 this time!!! X-D I think as far as the EU goes most of these sets are not too hard to learn about, but i do wish like you that TLC would give us some of the better known vehicles from the EU. Quote
xwingyoda Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 OK I need an advice from you, the SW geeks/nerds and what have you :-P I am currently redoing my MF inventory in order to integrate the new '08 set up but I am kind of indecise. What would you call the generic extra PT sets (lets leave the classic OT) ?? Sure we have this scheme so far: * I/ TPM * II/ AOTC * III/ ROTS * ?? comprising Clone Wars, EU & Force Unleash Help would really be appreciated ;-) OKie, back on topic !! And I really agree with you *vader* ; some more known vehicles are really something we all want (instead of ships only known to hardcore fans :-P ). Possibilities are really huge. Lets meditate on that for a few moments: * EU: Ewing, Ebon Hawk, Sith Fighter, and all these great Ties *wub* (defender, avenger) * CW: Sharkhead Republican Gunship *wub* , Neimodian shuttle... Ragarding CW's Anie JSF, I eally hope its his custom blue version Yeay all this is so exciting !! *yoda* Quote
Brainbox Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 EDIT: The force unleashed will be what obi wan said in episode 4 "the dark times" the battle between episode 3 and 4. So the 'Rise of the Empire' era, then. The Jedi Purge. Dropship: Depends on what it looks like. The description given is a little lax, although if it's a small set with an 'army build' label then it'll probably be a sort of souped-up battle pack. It'll probably be quite generic if its for army building as well. AT-PT: You'd think it'd be more at home with the OT Empire, but it did serve in the Clone Wars, and Shock Trooper are *wub* . Could be good. Jedi Starfighter: Same old. I'll probably pass. Rogue Shadow: I've not really been keeping up with the EU recently (I used to be quite well versed though), so this has kind of passed me by. However, if the set looks like the actual ship, and has great figures (battle damaged Vader sounds great), I'm getting this. And there's Juno Eclipse *wub* As far as more battle packs are concerned, they'll have to go with the big factions: so we could get more clones, more battle droids, Rebel troopers Hoth or Endor, Stormtroopers (and varients), the Naboo or Gungans. Jedi are out, unfortunately, as they're not all the same. Quote

Surely anything non-movie is EU? I suppose you've got Pre-Ep1 = OR (Old Republic) Post Ep-6 = NR (New Republic) Between Eps 2&3 = CW (Clone Wars) Between Eps 3&4 = ROP/ROV/ROE/JP (Rise of Palpatine / Rise of Vader / Rise of the Empire / Jedi Purge) Quote

As those stories can go anywhere unlike the gap between ep3 and 4 which is more structured. Quote
Oliverphoenix Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Very odd line-up though i'm glad its all new and actually interesting rather than just a moderned up version of a old set,I definately look foward to the AT-PT and the Storm trooper dropship and Rogue shadow sound cool as well. I wonder what the battlepacks could be?Perhaps something as equally odd and unexpected? Quote

OK I didn't know that !! Tks mate !! That will make my bloody chart more cpomplicated I guess !! So I guess its not possible to have a generic names ffrom different eras 'oh !! Tks CapTau ;-) but I won't go into that amount of details for my MF inventory list between the PT & OT So I shall have a different chart from each, and I shall include the EU in my OT chart then ;-) Excellent !! Tks for all these clarifications mates !! Your help is always greatly appreciated. But I still have one last question about that Force Unleash game: what era is it suppose to go with ? G these charts are becoming complicated |-/ I really wonder why is there going to be 1 small MF pack from the OT. It sounds quite small don't you think ?? Who needs another Tie Pilot ?? But the great part is that "Build you armies" label !! Like Dart Andrew stated, that set would be cheaper than the previous MF packs which is great IMO !! So they might have the same size and prize as the old story tellers sets 8- Quote
aayla-secura Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Sorry but what is OT and EU?? I think EU is Expande Universe? The ( Non film sets ) ?? And ot? Quote
xwingyoda Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 And ot? It stands for Original Trilogy ;-) The one comprising A New Hope (ANH), Empire Strikes Back (ESB), and Return of the Jedi (ROTJ) *yoda* Quote
aayla-secura Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Thanks *yoda* .. and EU i am right? Expaned Universe? Mhmm.. can i ask why some of you are so... mhmm.. mad about that lego makes EU?? Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Interesting news! As a result of some differences a question: Will the Imperial Dropship have clone troopers or storm troopers? Am I right that it will belong to episode 4 to 6? (Would be great! I only buy episode 4 to 6 sets.) Quote
aayla-secura Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Hi Klaus Dieter , auch mal wer hier :-) ------------------------------------------------- Hy , I think the Dropship will have 2 stormiers 1 pilot.. It's written above ( sam wrote this :-) ) Quote

aayla-secura Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Mhmm.. it could be but now we only know this set's If sam knows something thats new , i think then he would post it fot us! Let's hope to see a Blockade Runner !! Everyone wants to know wich set's will come 2008... :-) But i think TLC will make BP's because they are a real seller... I think they were the most buyd sets in SW 2007! Quote
Fordo Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 OT is Original trilogy=ep 4,5,6. This sets sound great can't wait! Quote
PSPguy Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 mad about that lego makes EU?? Its because some people are to lazy to read or play teh games to know what the bloody 'ell is going on. But some people dont want to know the spoilers like SPOILER Boba gets out of teh Scarlac pit. Quote
aayla-secura Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Should this at your post be a pic? I cant see something? No pic? Quote
Stauder Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Its a warning bout the spoiler. Anyway... Oww... Geting out of the Snarlyac... Must have been hard... Quote
Vader Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Tks for all these clarifications mates !! Your help is always greatly appreciated. But I still have one last question about that Force Unleash game: what era is it suppose to go with ? G these charts are becoming complicated |-/ *yoda* The Force Unleashed is set between ep3 and 4 during the dark times, no word on exactly when but the rumor is that its around 4yrs before ANH. Quote
maiq the liar Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 (edited) NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! this is sooooooo stupid.lego is stupid.how could they do this to me.this might be the end of lego for me.sorry lego but GET YOUR ACT TOGEATHER.EU lego ? whats lego on.i'm very mad.this might cause me to stop collecting sw lego. >:-( >:-( >:-( >:-( :'-( :'-( Expanded universe. NOT Europe And besides, if i tried to build a AT-PT myself, it would look like trash. i only largely have the basic bricks without scrounding around. Even then it would be at least a little ulticolored or innacurate. Edited June 20, 2007 by maiq the liar Quote
Nothing Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Wow! I am looking forward to the Force Unleashed sets. I saw the action figure of the TFU battle dameaged Vader. His helmet is like ompletely ripped off and you can see his face. Quote

Andrex Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Oh. My. Garglewhops. Those are gorgeous.. Indiana Jones AND these? I think I'm going to die. The Force Unleashed set I am salivating over already, and I've not even seen pics. This could mean KOTOR sets in the future perhaps :O. Wowee :D. Should be brill ^_^. Quote
