i think the term you are looking for is CEO office material ;)

 

Right. The UCS model with the wings fully extended at certain angles actually looked better than the screen version.  It only looked like Lego when viewed directly from the side where the small gaps in the Technic beams were visible.

Those were different times, when almost every non-D2C set was 50% off at some point, and available in massive quantities, but forfty million people suddenly decided that they wanted to be investors. 

Man, people were saying the exact same thing about 2012 back then too. (current_year) is always the worst year to stockpile LEGO. Not every set was 50%; just the unpopular ones. Tyrdirium was constantly on sale and sat on shelves for a long, long time.

Of course, the Scooby regret is eternal. I was a college student then so I was scrounging beer cans off the floor of frat dorms for recycling money to fund myself back then. At least I had an excuse for not going all-in.

So, slightly OT; but since LEGO did ani sets of Empire Strikes Back; then should we expect similar treatment for Return Of the Jedi aniversary?

basically a re-run of ROTJ sets w/ different art box and ani label

Anyway, it's pretty damn obvious...LEGO Star Wars is a fan fave again...LEGO needs to strike while the iron is hot

Rumors from Reddit. Supposedly translated from a Dutch source.  Take it with all the Salt on Crait

75303 - UCS Republic Gunship - $199.99 - 1794 pieces - May 4 Release

 

I've been waiting for this one.  Last fall I sold my damaged box 75021 out of my personal "to build someday" stash.  I wonder how many, if any, minifigures will come with this set?

Really hoping for a Phase 2 Cody.  He's really missing from the catalog of figures.

What is "MBS"?

Master Builder Series, similar to the Mos Eisley Cantina or the Cloud City.

are 75306 Imperial Probe Droid and 75309 MBS Attack on Endor remakes?

I hope Attack on Endor is a “companion” to Ewok Village (10236). Probably a build out of the actual base, AT-ST and some additional “forest” sections

I would love to see the Attack on Endor have part of a hillside w/ trees on top.  It would give a fair amount of space for play - inside and out.  What I don't want to see is a bunch of tree sections scattered all around "the base."  That would be a waste of pieces. 

Although, if LEGO would be really cleaver they could sell tree sections with both stormtroopers and rebel soldiers as battle packs.  But I don't see that happening.
