Why would you need to queue over night when you can get them online anytime? No, on Force Friday, ALL Star Wars related merchandise for the new film goes on sale. It's not just the LEGO sets, but Pops, action figures, etc. Quote
thoroakenfelder Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 There's no real need to queue up, unless you just want the experience. If you can get any of that stuff before street date, you can flip it, but once it's in wide release,you're not going to make much. The discounts are nonexistent on release, so if you wait you can get it all for cheaper. First wave releases are all super easy to get later on. For Hasbro, you want to get the later waves. We should soon see more consistent clearance on 1st wave TFA LEGO sets. Quote

exciter1 Posted June 22, 2016 Posted June 22, 2016 The only things that are hard to come by are action figures and I never feel like messing with them for minimal margins. Quote

They're only worth it if you can get them in your hands days/weeks before the actual release, otherwise they're like buying an anchor. Quote
Hennessy Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 I have seen currently leaked pictures of the September Rogue One sets, I am not impressed. 75152 - hover tank - can be noticed in the trailer. not bad as there is not such a veicle yet. price level seems also ok 75153 - according to picture of set, it looks very similar to OT one, but in darker colour. Maybe the best set of the release. 75154 - TIE Striker - looks like tie interceptor but only with two top wings, quite boring, ven the EP7 fighter is nicer I think 75155 - U Wing - stupid ugly fighter 75156 - Black cruiser similar to Imperial shuttle, but in black colour and in much uglier design itself LEGO apparently blocke the image from website, so it is not recoverable anymore, however, if you google images for "lego 75156" you can see a thumbnail of it (3rd picture of results for me, it is collage of 5 pictures with red borders).

Technically any complain about the design should be directed to Disney 1 Quote
tacsniper Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 A sigh of relieve... no AT-AT or ISD remake yet 1 Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 Let's refrain from posting any picture of the alleged new sets until official announcement from LEGO 1 Quote

Dark Helmet Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 ......maybe there was an official announcement and we just happened to miss it....... Quote

I am not a fan of it either, but we must respect the LEGO Company's stance on not showing anything that has not been given their approval yet to do so especially anything Star Wars related. It is for the good of the site and everyone here. Still a bummer all the same. Quote
Val-E Posted July 4, 2016 Posted July 4, 2016 (edited) Thos prelim pics were released ages ago - the main point of interest now is the new DS. We are safe regarding ISD and AT AT until Jan 2017 at the earliest and probably till September. Edited July 4, 2016 by Val-E 1 Quote
