HandyHand Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Good news for my 75054s and 75049s ! Sounds like a bit similar in scope and size to the Episode VI Ewok Village. Not UCS, but large and detailed nonetheless. And similar in price. Quote

I'd love to be surprised and see this set have some display qualities but all signs point to a very expensive bundling of play sets. i'm also disappointed but for diff reasons. even if it turns out to be the best Hoth set ever, it's still one of many hoth sets. i'm tired of hoth sets. hey lego, give us something new.

BrickLegacy Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 This sounds like a Star Wars Jokerland. I hope I'm wrong. 2 Quote
gobuffs98 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 If it only has a snowspeeder there should be a lot of pieces to put towards the base. I would be cool if it was on display at the NY toy fair this weekend. Only 2 1/2 months away, we should see pictures soon. Quote

Popular Post Mos_Eisley Posted February 11, 2016 Popular Post Posted February 11, 2016 How is there an assault on the base without an AT-AT (or at least one available for sale in the current set line-up)?! It should be called Wednesday at Hoth Base. 14 Quote

It should be called Wednesday at Hoth Base. According to the description this is some kind of a starter set as a base for MOC-s. Incomplete on purpose. You have to buy and build the rest yourself. I don't think it will be good anyway. Just sounds too disconnected. Edited February 11, 2016 by inversion grammar Quote

What fools would know this set is in the pipeline and then discontinue the most obvious and easiest $130 add-on set?! This had to be one of the dumbest moves ever done by them. 6 Quote

This had to be one of the dumbest moves ever done by them. I think they wanted to release this last year, but bumped into some sort of issues with it and had to delay it. Rumors began in January about a fall release. Still strange, because they could have saved the AT-AT. 1 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 And not just the AT-AT, but the Snowspeeder as well. 3 Quote

AT-At was a bad seller. if it was a bad selling set then maybe lego delayed this hoth set to make changes (make it more appealing)? Quote
thoroakenfelder Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Unless they needed to clear the path for a Rogue One branded AT-AT. 1 Quote

Maybe it was a bad seller as a stand alone set(I doubt it but possible). But I know a way to improve its sales either way - release a base for it to attack! 1 Quote
