Maybe we will get a white MF microfighter, weve already had 2 grays and dont need another. A small Razor Crest would be cool also.

Also, will vader helmet sink vader bust?

[MusiKyle]

If true, I'm totally ready for a scout trooper helmet, that's my favorite imperial trooper, probably because of the speeder bikes!

75298 Taun Taun vs AT-AT Microfighter - really?  What LEGO designer thought this was a good pairing?  Hop, hop, hop, boom.  AT-AT wins again.  lol

Most of those are a pass, IMO. 

Sounds like the UCS set is at the 199.99.  That tosses out an AT-AT and some other sets.  Seems like a perfect price point for the UCS Luke's Landspeeder.

I think if they were to make a republic gunship it would be higher than that in price.  Unless it's similar to 75021 and they add more pieces, and different figs.  The Tantive IV would be kind of a similar set.  But I dont think they are labeled "UCS" in that case.  So, i'm sticking with a Landspeeder.

Your lack of faith in the humble taun taun is gravely mistaken, as this video shows.

How long does it take them to design and release one?  The gunship won the fan vote in February.  My guess is a UCS X-Wing because it's been 20 years since the last one.

10240?  Not sure year but just a few so I hope not

I thought the plan for the UCS Gunship after last year's fan vote was for Fall 2021 at the earliest.

re: X-Wing, 10240 was 2013-2015.  The Tie Interceptor (7181) on the other hand is 20 years old and desperately in need of a remake, preferably in LBG and black.  It would pair well with the A-Wing.  It might even explain the GWP with the micro A-Wing and Tie Interceptor.

10240 is not UCS.

[S4J]

I fairly certain 10240 is a UCS set.  Why do you think it's not?

There isn't any UCS labeling on the box.

[S4J]

There are a couple of UCS sets that aren't labeled UCS but considered UCS.  There was a time frame where Lego didn't explicitly state UCS on the box but are considered UCS.  This set is clearly aimed to adults plus the lack of Minifigs and the included nameplate/stand screams UCS. I think the vast majority on here would call it a UCS set. 

[Alpinemaps]

I follow the Brickset labeling. They call it a UCS, along with the other evidence sites above...

[fossilrock]

Vaders Tie fighter is another one that needs the UCS update.  That could be the 199.99 UCS set too.  I have my doubts they'll venture into prequel or sequel terrain.

10240 is definitely a UCS set.  Dont see them making another x-wing, yet.

I'm actually looking forward to the Imperial Probe Droid. Hoping they do it justice. I don't think we've ever gotten one as a set in itself.

People can call it what they want but I'm interested in what LEGO names it, and LEGO has not named an X-Wing UCS since 7191.

Your name definitely checks out

Yes, you are 100% correct. This wasn't UCS, neither was 10212, 10227, and especially not 10221. 🤣

I'm not sure what most people will do, but I would definitely buy a UCS Imperial Probe Droid. I know there's a slim chance, but heck, they produced the 75278 D-O Droid for crying out loud!

[S4J]

LMAO and like 10240 all of those were intended to be UCS.  10212 and 10221 are 1 and 2 on my "UCS Want List" - at the current prices I doubt i'll get my hands on one.

I agree, if its as detailed like the other sets at the price range, one might have a nice blacked out imperial office display.

Not sure if brickipedia has the ultimate (no pun intended) list but: https://brickipedia.fandom.com/wiki/Ultimate_Collector's_Series

What I do find a little ironic about this list is 10198 (Tantive IV playset) is on the list but the more recent 75244 (Tantive IV playset) is not.  I know LEGO said 75244 is NOT a "UCS," but it was released on the UCS schedule, just like 10198.  And really the only differences between 10198 and 75244 is that 75244 has one additional minifigure and is a better rendition of the Tantive IV than 10198 ever was.

Also, as someone who owns both 7191 (Age 14+) and 10240 (Age 16+), I can assure you they are equivalent sizes and builds.  I kind of wish I could mate the body of 10240 with the wing mechanism of 7191 - best of both sets.
