exciter1 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 You guys should have dropped that in it's own thread. http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/15396-75159-the-death-star-2016/ 2 Quote
exciter1 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Now officially no longer a rumor, maybe. http://brickset.com/sets/75159-1/The-Death-Star 1 Quote
jay4e Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) so we know 10188 is done (assuming 75149 us real), this definitely makes 10188 more of a gamble. Edited December 11, 2015 by jay4e Quote
jerryherb Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 one can only hope its 10143 type a deal Quote
jay4e Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 So... remake of 10188 (ala toyshop)? remake of 10143? display viersion of DS1 (similar to 10143)? DS3 of some type??? Quote
Chillreign Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) Now it starts to get funny I'm wondering what it will look like (Playset or not) and what will be included with the set and of course what it will do to the price of 10188. Interesting times are coming Edited December 11, 2015 by Chillreign Quote

KShine Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) After having the Death Star remain available for 50 years, and giving everyone more than enough time to get one - I find it very hard to believe that they would re-release a virtual copy of the 10188 (unless LEGO is actually aiming for the complete destruction of re-sellers). But if it is so.... Edited December 11, 2015 by KShine 9 Quote

inversion Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 This will have to be at least $500 to match the 10188. Also they don't tend to use as many hard bricks nowadays, I would doubt that the weight would be more than 2/3 of the 10188. More plates, less bricks, same number of figs, at least 20% higher price. I still say the 10188 will be unique. This should be different in many aspects. Moreover, if they want people who own a 10188 buy this one too they HAVE to make it different. 4 Quote
BrickLegacy Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 The set # 75159 doesn't jive with the "Ultimate Collector Series" subtheme on Brickset...or am I missing something here? Either way, this should get interesting... Quote
