Mathew Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) I haven't seen anyone mention this major misstep with the new version: Where's Obi-Wan's hood and cloak? Lego not only was lazy but they actually screwed something up that was right with the original. Edited September 1, 2016 by Mathew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lego not only was lazy but they actually screwed something up that was right with the original. The 10188 money % that was used for Kenobi's hood and robe was allocated for 75159 Han's new Dirk Diggler-like hair element. You dim think that type of hair style comes cheap do you? Seriously, yeah it's a slight miss but Lego went with the printed torso and leg look instead. Oh well, that is the last mishap with this set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only royal guard battle I recall is when Yoda smashed them in Sidious' chambers about 5 seconds into their fight in Sith. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? Not sure what you were talking about. They were a bit annoying but not that hard to defeat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodeogeorge Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Am I the only one who prefers the old style minifigures? The new ones are cool but the old simple ones have charm that the new ones lack. Maybe I just like Old Style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bold-Arrow Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I might be in the minority here , but I think there should be a differentiation between the set being crap and what TLG did beign crap . I think the set looks pretty cool if that was an original design . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Mack Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Unless you don't have a 10188, buying a 75159 only encourages LEGO to be lazy, uncreative and uninspiring. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely prefer the old style minifigs - From an artful viewpoint, it is a more suitable match for the simplicity of the LEGO form. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian92007 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Same here I'll leave bad reviews for it to. I'm happy with my only set I got 10188. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
