Amazon.co.uk had the AT_AT available (at the inflated price of 109 GBP) yesterday, available May 7th. Not a third party, this was official from Amazon. Out of stock now (I didn't bother getting any at that price). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubfan78 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I am just getting back into Lego and a fan of Stars from many years ago, although I would not classify myself as a super fan. I will probably end up getting this set because I think it would look good in a setting next to the Ewok Village (buying May the 4th promotion). Part of me thinks that Lego may continue with this sub theme and we may see a different scene set next year. Again I am fairly new to Lego so I could just be talking out my A$$. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheese Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I hope that this is just a wind up. If this is the at st then this is a major major let down. Looks more like Ed 209. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The masks for the troopers are not correct, and the logo is blurred out, likely to hide the fact is says STAR WARZ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilrock Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 I have my doubts. It's missing the Rogue One packaging, which I guarantee would be on the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki221978 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 it looks like those are clone troopers and the pics look very poorly photoshopped. The disney logo is often found in the explosions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGallows Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 So in the some of the promo art for the new The Force Awakens trailer game there's this. Specifically the Rathtar looks great, hopefully we'll see this in a set at some point, would make an excellent addition to the new MF Heres the trailer in case you've missed it https://youtu.be/FiMF7WPeqgs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The arm pieces resemble the tail from Smaug, but yeah... they got to release that! They also need to put out that Bantha they showed in a video last year...

The price per piece for those two is very low for a SW set: 75152: 0.078$/piece 75153: 0.089$/piece 75154: 0.128$/piece 75155: 0.121$/piece 75156: 0.104$/piece 75154 is 100 pieces more than 75153 but it costs nearly twice as much.

You're over thinking things, without knowing what the sets are, or how many minifigures there are, the piece count is pretty meaningless. I don't get why people get so hung up on piece count anyway. Look at Tower Bridge, it has a huge piece count, but a quarter of the pieces are the tiny cheese wedges, so the piece count for that really doesn't compare to other sets.

You're right that this doesn't take into acount how large the pieces are and how many minifigures are included. I'm just comparing it to TFA sets and it seems significantly lower. I think the average is about 0.12$ so 0.078$ seems very low. Unless these sets all contain smaller pieces and less minifigures, it looks to me like you're getting a better deal. As for TB, I think most people agree that it is sort of an exception. The price per piece is a lot lower than other creator expert sets because of the cheese wedges.

Val-E Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 We should be getting pics quite soon - some of the PPC´s are simlar to TFA Tie and X Wing so let´s see what happens. The longer there is no proof of a new AT AT or ISD, the better it gets for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
