It depends on the build, but X-Wing tends to have a bit more pieces and a higher price. Example: both released in 2012, the Y-wing was 49.99€ and the X-Wing was 69.99€ so it's possible. http://brickset.com/sets/9495-1/Gold-Leader-s-Y-wing-Starfighter http://brickset.com/sets/9493-1/X-wing-Starfighter Also wasn't the U-wing MSRP 69.99$? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilrock Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) U-wing is 79.99... Anyway, i'd doubt there is an x-wing, or an at-at in the January wave. To be honest, looking at the Star Wars set list, I feel like January will be a rather dull month. I'm sure the Rogue One battlepacks will be awesome and i'm sure that will help fill up the Uwing with minis, but the names of the other sets due out seem dull. Duel of the Fates sounds ok, but at a 29.99 cost, it's going to be a very small set with little to it. Yoda's starfighter sounds like it's some EU or clonewars based set. In another report, they said it was actually Yoda's Hut so, tough to say which is accurate. But overall that list almost matches up with this one. In the end, the Star Wars theme needs an influx of new ideas. Another landspeeder, and desert skiff? So does this mean, they are going to repeat the Jabba theme over the next few years? My son and I look forward to our yearly ritual of driving 5 hours away on the 1st of the year to go to a lego store to buy new sets and see a movie on the large IMAX theatre. This year, I'm not sure it will be as interesting as it was the previous 2 years. It will be interesting to see what the Rogue One set is, but I think AT-AT's are safe for a while.

To be honest, the galaxy is quite large, that seeing new vehicles, characters or ships should be a given. The u-wing seems like it's just a dropship that carries ground troops. In a New Hope, there weren't any scenes that required that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I gotta defend it, I'm a Chicagoan. I agree...Navy Pier as part of the scene with a little (Centennial Wheel) Ferris wheel would be kind of interesting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if one of those will be a Batcave in one form or another. 6860 has been trending up on Amazon. With 15 sets how can one of them NOT be the Batcave. 15?

fantomas007 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Nothing extra. It looks like 2015 or 2016 list... Too many clones / remakes - another sydney opera scene (third in short time, unbelievable), another Elsa palace, of course police station, too many batman movie and ninjago movie sets...

Codes Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I might be the only one, but I'd love Yoda's Jedi Star fighter. It featured prominently in a Yoda-centric story arc towards the end of Clone Wars. I am biased, though, the ETA-2 class star fighters the Jedi favoured was probably my favourite craft from the prequel trilogy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 What stands out for me: Architecture Quote Sydney (21032)Chicago (21033)London (21034) I like the city skylines, and I like this choice better than the last three. City Quote Beach Buggy – 9.99Fishing Boat (60147) – 19.99Truck with Catamaran – 19.99Truck with Quads – 19.99 Interesting little sub theme (?). I like the look of that fishing boat, so I'm curious about these other three. I want to see what the quads look like; that set might fit in with my Winter Village theme. Quote Pizza Van – 19.99 Street Sweeper and Truck – 29.99 Love it! Can't wait to see this one. Funny that Friends is a Pizzeria. I also love this new service vehicle. We've been getting a steady stream of them the last couple of years, between the Recycling Truck and Snow Plow. I'm curious to see how it compares, though, to the street sweeper in the service station that just came out. Quote Bank Robbery – 59.99Service Truck Heist – 19.99Gangster Squad (60135) – 5.99Money Truck – 14.99 I want to see what those Gangsters look like. Those could be pretty cool. I'm wondering how the Service Truck Heist and the Money Truck compare to Doc Ock's Truck Heist. These sets might compliment the Brick Bank really well. Speed Champions sub theme Quote 75877 Mercedes AMG GT375878 Bugatti Love it. Both of those cars are pretty sleek looking. I love the Speed Champions cars, so looking forward to these, too. More to come. That's enough thoughts for this hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
