DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Saw new Sw sets today at Target... all full price of course. Which is going to be BIG? any can't lose favorites in this bunch? Besides Death Star Troopers, I don't see much there. Quote
exciter1 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Besides Death Star Troopers, I don't see much there. I agree, I'm stocking up on those bad boys. I'm a sucker for Imperial Guards too. I'm waiting for them to hit $9 before I buy any. Is the Emperor in any of the new sets? I noticed he wasn't coming with the Star Destroyer. Quote
jaisonline Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Besides Death Star Troopers, I don't see much there. Ditto. Nothing good arriving until at least May. Quote

exciter1 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Emperor comes only as a small statue in that set. Vader has a new color head under the mask. I found the Emperor I want, but he's only in 10188 and 8096. It looks like I'll be paying a premium. Quote
Huskers1236 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I'm not into Yoda Chronicles, but I kind of like that Jedi Scout Fighter set. Don't think I'll buy it, but I do like the look of it. I'll have to bricklink the Ithorian to put in my Cantina. Quote
jaisonline Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I found the Emperor I want, but he's only in 10188 and 8096. It looks like I'll be paying a premium. Goes for around $17. 1 Quote
Legbrick Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 OK Death Star Troopers seems to be good, just wondering why? What makes it stand out? I was looking at all the sets. It seems rather basic in comparison. Just wondering the attraction??? thanks Quote
Achilles Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Can anyone explain to me why the Imperial Guards have mini lightsabers in this pack instead of pikes? Is it something out of a show or something? Quote

Just wondering the attraction??? thanks Classic Trilogy - Death Star Troopers are new - the Royal Guards are holding pikes, they just look wierd - they are cool Quote

It seems rather basic in comparison. Just wondering the attraction??? thanks Death Star Troopers are new figure needed for DS setups as they didn't come with the set. Army builders of this genre are going to be all over these as well as having another avenue to getting Imperial Guards that are more accurate compared to the originals with the dark red arms. Can anyone explain to me why the Imperial Guards have mini lightsabers in this pack instead of pikes? Is it something out of a show or something? They are trying to be more screen accurate. The actual staff that they hold is two-tone grey and black, but it's more of a pool cue than a pike or spear. They would have to make a new mold for it to be perfect. I personally think they should have stayed with the spear, but I see what they are trying to do. Quote
Pseudoty Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I like the Police Gunship it is a nice build and a neat looking set. Sold the mini figs to cover the cost of the ship and then some. There is a new movie police ship coming out that looks very similar in design. Quote
Young_Gun21 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Any idea on a piece count Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker Quote
Huskers1236 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Damn, you beat me to it, I was just coming back from Eurobricks to post this. Ninja'd Quote
zskid00 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 At first I thought that was a picture from the DK book of the old Sandcrawler, but I see the set number (75059) is the new one. Thanks for posting! Quote
Huskers1236 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I was hoping they would go to the newer construction type treads and not the small treads from the previous Sandcrawler. Those are a pain in the ass. I made the comment elsewhere, but doesn't it look like there is light coming from inside the hull? Looks like the bluish LED light coming from it and shining on the Jawa on the sled. Quote
lego rules Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Might be just me but I don't like the outside. I was hoping for an amazing looking upgrade from old one but this new one looks worse to me. Quote
Huskers1236 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Has to me more to it, there's no way this is 2500+ pieces. Quote
MartinP Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Has to me more to it, there's no way this is 2500+ pieces. We only have a partial view of the set. There could be some intricate design inside the Sandcrawler that uses a lot of pieces. Quote
lego rules Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 I personally don't care about the playability. If that is the new sandclawer, there is no way I am getting rid of my current one. The new one is hideous......at least from that picture it is. Quote

I can't help but find it funny that we get all emotionally attached and outspoken about a sand transport vehicle driven by nomadic aliens who use it to haul junk and scrap around to flea markets on a desert planet. 2 Quote
