What star ships were in it, anything from OT? R2-D2? ISD?

Read the spoiler thread, I´ve been drilling the early birds all day for info. You may have regrets. Big ones.

Was that Evazan and Baba in the alley?

What was on screen longer, Hovertank or AT-ST?

I would go with tank.  Seemed to me a bit of action going on around the tank.

Neither are very noticeable.

[gobuffs98]

I wonder who Vader's doorman was?  Some kind of old butler??

[Val-E]

So the screen time / importance ranking would be:

U Wing

X Wing

Rebel TIE

Y Wing

AT AT

ISD

Krennic´s

Hovertank

AT ST

IST

As far as lego set screen time I would go with:

1. U-wing

2 Krennic's Shuttle

3. Hovertank

4. Tie Striker 

5. AT-ST

I think the U-wing and Kennic's shuttle would gain the most interest from the movie.

There was a shot of a Lambda class shuttle taking Vader to the downed rebel ship.  Not a good enough shot to generate interest in the tydirium.

I've made enough profit on the SSDs I've sold so far and I still have my pallet of R2-D2. As for R5, it let me down badly and I never want to see one again! ;-)

I haven't asked for permission to see the Spoiler Thread as I can wait until I see the movie in JAN/FEB. Reviews from "average" people hype up a movie so much that it's often a disappointment when you actually see it.

If LEGO makes the 4 wing transport thing, I'll puke.

I guess 10188 could be advertised as  Original Full Fat Rogue One flavour.

I was thinking of minifigures they might want to put out:  

Two Tubes  - he at least had some lines

Saw Gerrera  - a key figure in the movie

Mon Mothma -  Seems to be leading the rebelion

They may get thrown in a set starfighter set like Admiral Raddus and the white wookie looking guy.

I waited a full 11 month to see TFA and it was just like people hyped it down to be!

[znjndmawn]

Surprised no one has mentioned Tantive IV unless I was hallucinating.

I'd like them to release this.

Tarkin, which could be another nail for 75150.

[Val-E]

Jeez, 75150 already has more nails in it than a Nine Inch Nails  greatest hits album.

if you're not a big fan, you can wait it out.

I like 1 new ship model though. Very much

[amrandazz]

I thought it was better than E7 personally. The way they tied in the technology from OT was flawless. I thought Krennic was casted/acted very well along with the Tarkin CGI. That Vader ending...

 

My only complaints was that they slightly overdid the nostalgia scenes mostly because I had a very strange teenage girl sitting next to me that would hyperventilate and give me a lot of anxiety during each one. The other being Saw Gerrera's character. I just didn't see a lot of value to his screen time particularly his choice to die.

[Deanfjr]

Just got back from the movie, and I must say...

For those of you that saw Rogue One... can I say that it's time to unleash the 9493s and 10240s to the public at outrageous prices?!?!

I see a nice bump for the 10240 as well.

Too bad 10188 won't see a bump

all the other OT Saga UCS sets will see a bump especially the Blockade Runner.

I agree.  They all looked fantastic.  The 10030 should find new life as well.

Don´t write it off. 75159 is still SAH exclusive and could run out. Some very demanding kids could still be in for a 10188.

[Deanfjr]

Lego please release a R1 AT-AT

[Guest TabbyBoy]

Since the R5 tanked this year and most think that OT is the best, I think any gains will be short lived. I'm glad I did some of you a favour by buying mine at close to RRP. I don't do regrets, I move on...

Stupid question but, is the MF in it as I forgot that I had another 10179? ;-) I'd like £4k for this one as it's also 9.8 graded.
