2026 Predictions EditionPrevious thread: >>11654943What do you think we will be getting for the May & August waves next year?I'll start:>star destroyer microfighter with thrawn>wolfpack gunship>general grievous wheel bike remake>kamino set with shaak ti>play-scale millennium falcon with new lando fig>buildable figures and midis nobody wants
Aayla Secura anon, can you post her again?
Bro there still was another perfectly fine thread up, hell you even linked to it in the OP lmao.
>>11661253Man that's depressing
>>11661253I know the other thread is still up but I just have to reply to this impossible lineup>star destroyer microfighter with thrawnI highly doubt we'll get Thrawn in a microfighter but this is the most possible prediction you've made>wolfpack gunshipDon't expect to see another gunship in at least 4 years time>general grievous wheel bike remakewon't happen>kamino set hahhahaah>with shaak tiroflcopter>playscale falconinveitably but I highly doubt it in the following year or two>buildable figures and midis nobody wantsthis is actually the most believable prediction
NEW LEAKS THIS IS NOT A DRILL
>>11666993Actually the Kamino set was confirmed by the leaker that leaked the January 1st sets, I'm not sure why you're laughing when we got three last year?
>>11667028>EPII Bounty Hunter Pursuit Hell yeah
>>11667233Is it wishful thinking to get Ani, Obi, Zam with 2 sided face print, 2 speeders while additionally including the assassin courior droid and Jango?
>>11667382That’s the right move. Which is precisely why that won’t happen.
Thoughts on smart play?
>>11667405
>>11667405>>11667407This is the only one I would have maybe got, and like half of the backside is just left incomplete, so nah.
>>11667408The x wing is ok too
>>11667413
>>11667413>>11667414No way, it looks like some bastardization between a microfighter and a regular X-wing playset. It's weird.
Throne room looks like a genuine good playset
Rest of the sets, I hope we get good pics of all of them when they are up for pre-order in 3 days from now. They kinda remind me of early 2000s lego star wars sets, anyone else?
>>11667407>>11667413>>11667427>>11667428What frustrates me about all of this is that this is actually a genuinely great wave of OT sets. They include some of the very best elements of the Original Trilogy, almost like an ultimate Star Wars wave, and yet it’s all undermined by the high prices and the digital components. If these were normal sets marketed as more “CLASSIC,” in the spirit of the early 2000s sets, I’d be all over them. But the idea of owning a minifigure that I might have to throw away in 10 years because of battery leakage really bothers me. I genuinely think there are some excellent designs here.
>>11667405>>11667407>Vader's Tie Fighter>The back is all hollow to make room for a SmartBrick/Switch for your fingersThis is shit no thanks
New astromech body?
Mos Eisley
>>11667441
>>11667427>put a sound brick behind the fig to make bad lightsabre noisesLOL REALLY?
>>11667459
>>11667440Yep, welcome to the standard for all minifigs going forward
>>11667430There are no batteries in the figs themselves. They are basically nfc tags just like the sound font plates. But yeah really disappointing to see the price bloat
>>11667463Lmao
>>11667382At $60 I can see obi wan, ani, and zam but not Jango given he's already in the $60 slave I. I'm guessing the speeders will be scaled down like the rebuild the galaxy tie/xw-wing two pack. And the assassin droid will be brick built.
>>11667568There's not a chance we're getting Jango. The real /lsw/ question should be: when the fuck are we getting a new dooku?
>>11667584>new DookuI bet this year, better question is Grievous when?
>>11667591Grievous came out in a bunch of sets and not that long ago. Dooku is way overdue. >this yearI doubt it. What sets would he even come in, do you think? I imagine we'd get a solar sailer down the line.
>>11667597Maybe Anakin's starfighter? It's a clone wars set after all. And he fought Dooku a lot in it, for some reason even if it contradicts the movies..
>>11667604It would be odd. I guess maybe if they gave dooku the speeder thingy. I imagine we'll get some new magna guards when we get dooku and then it will have to be separatist set. I'd kill for a CIS capital ship bridge interior set but I know that ain't happening.
Speculation on the remaining Mando movie sets?I say one of them is the arena
>>11667612AT-AT dissapoints me because I wish they did a smaller scale one like the gingerbread, but maybe they keep that idea alive for a 2027 smart play set since those are downsized anyway.
>>11667615Why would you want this?
>>11667625Because I like small scale sets but also want minifigs to play with and don't like midi scale?
>>11667628That is..... retarded.
>>11667630Why?
>>11667633Wanting a super out of scale vehicle that won't even look good as a midi display piece makes no sense. You just limit both playability and displayability.
>>11667638Best selling of the year by the way, check mate
>>11667639This sold because its actually cool unique idea.
>>11667639Worse selling set of the year by the way, checkmate.
>>11667680The $160 grey blob that falls apart in your hands didn't sell as well as the fun creative playset that is actually reasonably priced. Wow shocking.
>>11667698But I thought downscaling the sets & giving exclusive minifigs would sell the set no matter what?????? I t worked for the unique gingerbread at at. Why not a fan loved vehicle with clones for the clone fags?
>>11667680>>11667701The problem with the turbo tank is that the designers somehow made design mistakes for its stability, I dunno how that got away.
>>11667028I will eat my graphics card if the bounty hunter pursuit is real
>>11667733>It was just the stabilityNo it wasn't & you know it wasn't. The stability is just a footnote, and it wasn't even that bad, only if you picked it up one certain way did it fall apart. Not even clones that have been asked for for years was enough to sell it & CTT always sell. Even the price is usually a non-factor for CW & LSW fans, they'll buy it anyway. Downscaling is going too far & even the cattle are starting to realize this.
>>11667783Ah yes, keep sets at big sizes and make them more expensive, you showed them Jim
>>11667760You can mail it to me and I'll eat it for you anon
>>11667794Based
>>11667787it's about the perception of valuebigger set = more valuefor some people, they're willing to look past the price if they think they're getting more
I just baseded out. I can't believe they remaking this from my childhood 24 years later.
do people prefere this huge blocky things over normal small lego guns?
>>11668052Lol, why does Anakin have a cow lick?
>>11667405>>11667407>downscaled>overpriced>ugly>cheap out on a printed part you have been using for 20 years before>not even a fucking stickertrash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trash trashI fucking hate modern lego star wars and 2026 will be the most horrendous year imaginable.
>muh smart brinkwtf is this shit? an excuse to charge up the ass
Maybe these are just advanced 4+ sets? It certainly doesn't seem to be for teenagers or adults.
>>11668052i hope its going to be good!
>>11668134No it won't lol,We are getting a UCS Super Star Destroyer and the August Wave seems Kino. There were some truly horrendous years during the Sequel era.
>>11668052ZAM WESELL'S VESSEL
>>11667441>Jizz band set
What in your opinion is the best iteration of the A-Wing?Always wanted the 2006 version as a kid but now that I finally can obtain one there may be better version out there already.
>>11668247I have the original and the one from 2012 and the latter is pretty good.
>>11668247Every review I've seen of the most recent ones all have these white stickers that horribly miss-match the white bricks.I have no idea if the stickers are just wrong or lego has been making white bricks "less white" in that era but it's a complete dealbreaker for me all the same.
>>11667405>>11667407>>11667413>>11667414>>11667427>>11667428These are so fucking cool, Lego/Star Wars are saved
>>11668247The 2013 is easily the best. It's the only one that actually has the gap on the front, the sole reason it's called an A-Wing in the first place. You can also still get it for relatively cheap.
>smart brickDenmark deserves to have Greenland taken away by United States for this atrocity
>>11668052Seeing recent trends it will probably end up being an inferior version. I'm lmaoing at all the youtube zoomies hoping it will have a Dexter Jettster.
>>11668294I believe it's also the last one that has the super star destroyer bridge displayed on its console piece, they even ditched it in the USC version but then included the alternate screaming face for the minifig because....?
>>11667428I will get the falcon and landspeeder
>>11667407>>11667413>>11667427I will buy these at big disounts>>11667428And these too, the Falcon is a $100, that ain't bad so it might be a day 1 buy compared to the rest, maybe landspeeder and AT-ST too.
>>11668336We have prices for all:>>11667407>>11667414>>11667427>>11667428>75420 Luke's Landspeeder (6+) $39.99 215 pcs March 1, 2026>75421 Darth Vader’s TIE Fighter £59.99 / $69.99 / €69.99 473 pcs March 1, 2026>75422 Dagobah Training (8+) $69.99 440 pcs March 1, 2026>75423 Luke’s Red Five X-wing £79.99 / $99.99 / €89.99 584 pcs March 1, 2026>75424 AT-ST (7+) $49.99 347 pcs March 1, 2026>75425 Mos Eisley Cantina (8+) $79.99 666 pcs March 1, 2026>75426 Millenium Falcon (9+) $99.99 885 pcs March 1, 2026>75427 Throne Room Duel & A-wing £139.99 / $159.99 / €159.99 962 pcs March 1, 2026
>>11668338>>11667405The fact that they marketed the smart brick to the Star Wars fans first, only reinforces my belief that all star wars fans are mentally inept manchildren.
>>11668285>>11668294Seems like 75003 really does just win at every aspect. I'm not a fan of flick-fire missiles but these look fine enough if left on.I virtually never mess with the original designs but I'm totally going to swap these clip pieces to black though.
>>11668340They celebrated Filoni becoming Lucasfilm ceo so yes, they are
>>11668345>FiloniWho was this guy again...?t. senile old man
>>11668346The guy who did hits like the clone wars 3d series, rebels, ahsoka, mandalorian, book of boba fett, etc.
>>11668352And yes, he is promoting the smart brick in that pic
>>11668352>the clone wars 3d series, rebels, ahsoka, mandalorian, book of boba fettAll dogshit but ofc the modern audience will praise that crap and celebrate this change.
Does anyone here own pic-related?I wanted to snag one but it's way longer than I thought (43cm). Does it look ok on higher shelfs where you're seeing more of the underside of the ship instead of the top?
>>11668363Actually nevermind this entire post, I'll just alter the stand to display it at an angle.
>>11667405Smart Brick is unironically the best thing to happen to Lego Star Wars in at least a decade.Seeing all the seething afools has brought me insurmountable joy. All retarded e-celebs crying about how it's not "displayable" and "muh heckin minifigs are ruined" (even though they never take apart their figs anyway and the back print won't be visible from their soulless fig display case). This is the exact kind of thing I've been pestering Lego for in all the feedback forms and surveys. You are finally allowed to play with your sets rather than have them collect dust and not have any fun ways to interact with them except a tacked on stud shooter.Granted I still kind of expected more from the brick. For now all we've seen it do is make noise and flash annoyingly. I have Star Wars McDonalds toys from the 2000s that make noise whenever you swoosh them, the tech is hardly new or innovative. I don't see how this couldn't have been achieved with the sound bricks they already have. The dogfighting gimmick seemed fun at least, hopefully there's more to it than they show. Also it makes me wonder why they decided to stuff the entire smart brick kit with every set instead of selling it separately. Now if you buy the whole wave you'll get a bunch of extra chargers and bricks you don't need. And if you happen to want an extra smart brick for MOCs or to play with, well fuck you, buy an entire set.The sets themselves are genuinely fine. The only headscratcher is the X-wing with its retarded cockpit placement. Everything else looks fine and would have been great sets even if they didn't have the smart brick. Side builds are cool and would make for fun scenarios to play out. I'm particularly excited for the Echo Base rumour, that seems like it'd be perfect for the new system - run missions in and out of the base while you get sound queues to what's happening.This is a good thing for the brand. We might finally have a year of Lego Star Wars that isn't just 50% 18+ slop.
>>11668338>playscale Falcon less pieces than midi-scaleKEKAROOOOOOOO
>>11668378The sets look like shit. It is indefensible. I was actually quite interested in the TIE until I realized it is quite literally only half a build. I think it is perfectly fine for there to be sets and play elements meant for kids. The Death Star throne room duel looks like a good playset, but the prices are pretty exorbitant on all of these.
>>11668378>The sets themselves are genuinely fineYeah you lost me here.Go fuck yourself.
>>11668378Smart bricks are only in 3 sets (throne room, x wing and tie), the rest only have smart minifigs and smart tags.
>>11668378Agreed, they remind me of late 90s sw
>>11668407When lego had soul
>>11668408
>>11668378Agreed, toys are toys again and basedboys are seething at it
>>11668407>>11668408>>11668410The Flash Speeder has aged the best.The cut-off point for when Lego Star Wars lost it's soul was arguably around the 2010 mark, but undeniably after the 2012 disney takeover. There are still some nice sets a few years after 2012 but that was most likely before the disney rot fully set its poisonous root into Lego Star Wars.
>>11668429Disney rot started in 2015 when they added their logo, you could say the first 2 rebels sets did it.
>>11668378Anything that makes gaylords like MandR and ToT upset is an inherent good.I hope this isn't the only smart brick wave.
>>11668431>my entire personality is liking whatever an eceleb dislikesDo you realize how stupid you sound?
>>11668432Idiot, smart play is dope
The boxes look nice as fuck, remind me of old star wars boxes
>>11668436
>>11668437
>>11668432Yes, I tend to do the opposite of what retards do. Is there a problem with that?
You know what guys? I'm pretty hyped for these, I feel like a kid again
Can't you just snatch the smart brick and put it on any other set?
>>11667612One of the "spaceships" is obviously the new razorcrest.
>>11668444You can, but they probably want to wait a while before they sell smart bricks separate
I looked at the showcases and these "smart bricks" don't even actually use the official star wars blaster sounds like lmao ya'll just trolling by saying you're actually hyped for this crap.
>>11668440>Yes, I tend to not think for myself. Is there a problem with that?No man, not at all. You do you.
>>11668450Yes, I'm genuinely excited for these smart bricks sets, they remind me of the time lego had soul
>>11668450You're right, if it doesn't have the recognisable licensed trademark sound ripped directly from the Star Wars movies then I MIGHT not even make a soiface...
Lego fans when their toy is made for kids.
>>11668458What you posted is leagues above smart brick crap thougheverbeit so I have no idea what point you are trying to make.
>>11668458>>11668461You guys are unbelievable.This shit was done 20+ YEARS AGO. You niggers have absolutely zero standards and do not even care about Star Wars to begin with.Why the fuck are you even in the Lego Star Wars General, fuck outta here you worthless wastes of shiteating skin.
>>11668458Nope sorry anon what you posted is soulless garbage because all of those sets don't have huge gaping holes at the back of the builds.
>>11668475>>11668479Go back to r/starwars
>>11667413>>11667414Why is the rebel soldier black?
>>11668483You would know about that place wouldn't you, you shitflinging niggerfaggot.
>>11668378>The sets themselves are genuinely fineI like how they integrated battle damage to Vader's tie fighter by exploding the back in advance for youthis ain't worth it
>>11668492I don't have shit taste like you. In 2 days I WILL PREORDER THE SMART BRICKS SETS AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP ME!THE SMART PLAY ERA IS UPON US AND IS HERE TO STAY ANALOGIC ORGANIC SAD LOSERS!!!! BRING IN TECHNO REVOLUTIOOON
>>11668495>is that...a play functiooon???? I'm gooiiiing insaaaneeee!!!! SAVE ME 18+ DUST COLLECTORS!!!!Reminder smart play is here to bring in the balance, more PLAYsets
I really don't get the uproar about the small brick They are clearly for children and not for collectorsIf you are a collectors the older sets that you can get should be more than enough too to fulfill your need for your Lego Star warsLike do you really need another tie advance like in 2026 when you probably already have a copy of it from the last 10 years?
>play features are supposed to compromise the build and look ugly!!!!!!!!!!1111All of you niggers weren't even alive when this released and you certainly do not care about Star Wars.How about you fuck off from this general and go shit up someplace else.
>>11668498>They are clearly for childrenI'm on the same page as you until I look at the price tags.
>>11668498Because dumb afools like plebbit and eurobricks believe smart bricks will take away from their collector slop slots even though these are clearly separate.
>>11668501They aren't any different from other star wars sets prices so I don't buh the price excuse also lego is a premium toy, it was NEVER cheap
>>11668497>playsets are getting downscaled from left to right>inflate price>shoehorn shitty studshooters>they flop>this is totally the fault of the rich neckbeards only buying USC's!Yeah no.Literally every playset I've bought this year was NOT the newest iteration because 99% of them are a downgrade compared to previous versions.
>it was NEVER cheap
>>11668505That's some next level strawman.>every playset I've bought this year was NOT the newest iteration because 99% of them are a downgradeYes, because they sacrifice playfeatures for detail and accuracy so collectorfags can display it on their wholesome reddit shelf. Smart brick sets are a return to form
>>11668508NTA but it's true. Adjust the price of any SW set from the past for inflation. Lego has always been expensive.
>>11668475Good, I want Lego to return to how it was 20 years ago. This is a step in that direction.>>11668495You know fully well that that's where the brick goes so it covers it up.
>>11668508But it's true, adjust any lego set price before 2000s and all were expensive for their time.
>adjusted for inflation
>>11668535>nooooo you cannot adjust it for inflation, we have to say it was cheap even though back then it was a totally different economy and in that economy it wasn't cheap reeeeeeeee I need to lieeee
>>11668378Truth nuke.
>>11668541>the big gooberment would never lie!Good goy.
>>11668528>that's where the brick goes so it covers it upsure...
>>11668547Holy shit, you are living in another reality, displayfags truly are delusional
>>11668550What's wrong with that? It did cover it
>>11668550This is literally a 4+ set with slightly more detail and a huge hole in the back with a triple-digit pricetag.You fags can go ahead and buy 3 sets of these each, I shan't be buying a single one.
>>11668552>literally every single lego guy complains about modern day pricing>"no, you see, they are actually all wrong"
>>11668558Yes, unironically, they are wrong. Modern day pricing is just how they were priced back then too, we had some things going on called wars, pandemics, etc. Inflation you know. Lego was always an expensive toy.
These are toys for kids (gen alpha). Lego needs gen alpha to buy sets or they will die.
>>11668556Sure. But you better not ever complain about modern Lego being only dust collectors and lamenting how you wish they would just go back the good old days.
>>11668497Playsets are dead because kids dont buy this slop anymore. Have you seen how they butchered the autistic of Lego Star Wars? It's all accurate and shitty looking now. Like ugly little funko pops. Kids would rather just play Roblox than "play" with this slop.
>>11668558Literally everyone has been complaining since 2009. It's not a recent thing. Prices were have always been a problem.
>>11668594And roblox is simple as fuck, more proof lego should be more simple
>>11668594I want that old jango fett minifig so fucking bad but I know lego will never ever return it as an anniversary/special figure.
>>11668378The issue I have with them is the price. The sets are obviously designed for kids so what adult collectors think about them doesn't really matter, but that X-Wing is 100$. IIRC the X-Wing and TIE Fighter set they did was also 100$, and I think most kids and parents would rather buy the set with both an X-Wing and a TIE Fighter than a worse looking X-Wing at the same price, even if it makes sounds.Electronic light and sound in toys is hardly a new thing, and it doesn't really seem like a gimmick worth that pricetag. If they just did reasonably-priced Star Wars playsets aimed at kids, I'd be all for it, but these feel like they should be half the price they're asking for them if it wasn't for the smart brick, so hardly reasonably priced.
>>11668594Vader's helmet is another classic Lego star wars piece that got fucked in the transition over.
>>11668602I prefer the old one but I'll give it props for permanently having its chin forward, like it's constantly looking down on you.That said the helmet feels way oversized though.
>>11668602I actually like thew new helmet and stormtrooper too
>>11668606We know, intern.
>>11668594>>11668599>>11668602We didnt know how good we had it as kids. Agree with the style being ruined. Lego Star Wars just doesnt hit the same anymore.
>>11668620It's because back in the day it was Lego first, Star Wars second.These days it's the opposite.
Truth.
>>11668628Better one to point out afols like garbage thats only for display instead of play
Why even have seperate generals when both have the exact same posts anyway?
>>11668641But they don't, it just so happens because smart play was revealed yesterday
>>11668641The point was to have people that like lego SW and people that dislike lego SW not share a same thread, but the obsessed haters still raid the "containment" general regardless.
>>11668550Umm...thanks for proving my point?
>muh afolsYou're telling me that you are not an adult but posting on an 18+ website regardless?Or are you one of those faggots that deliberately enters a thread full of things he doesn't like just to complain about it?
>>11668442If the smart brick enables a lazer tag type dog fight play scheme then I think the whole thing is worth it. Here's hoping they load the brick with actual starwars sound fonts instead of the generic shit from the demo.
>>11668658I am 24, I just hate the entire adults welcome culture. Lego was never meant to be displayed like adults intend it. Cope
>>11668663>Here's hoping they load the brick with actual starwars sound fontsYeah about that.Seems the smart bricks actually synthesizes the sounds on the go, so what you're hearing now is most likely the best you're going to get lmao.
>>11668672You're mixing two things up.The whole adults welcome thing and "adults" only buying sets to display are two separate things.
>>11668676It's the same thing anon
>>11668679No, the specific "adults welcome" thing by lego themselves was after failing to gain popularity with the new younger generation, and partially pissing off the old one with sequel shit.It's basically lego beging the old now-adult fanbase to keep buying their products.You see the slogan on display sets a lot but it stretches to everything because a while back (and still today) you get laughed at for being a grown-up man playing around with plastic blocks.But these grown-ass men make up a large portion of what's actually making lego money and they are also the same ones that put up with the price-hikings.TL;DR The marketing move was aimed at lego sets for all ages, not just the display sets.
>>11667405>>11667413>should we create bricks with pre-loaded sounds?>nah let's create 1 brick that creates all possible sounds itself except it sounds like total dogshit and costs 3-trillion to develop and produceSo instead of a human being making swoosh and pew pew sounds the super-duper smart brick that needs its dedicated smart minifig and smart tile with it's 1-watt speaker is going to do this?As apposed to a human just opening his mouth?This shit needs to be charged. The build needs to be compromised to accommodate the smart brick and tiles. The smart bricks further jack up the price.All to replace human-made swooshes?I feel like the lego group has gone completely insane.
>>11668687>large portionLast year lego said they were 3-4% of sales, the adults who buy sets for themselves so I don't buy it.
>>11668705Anon that "large portion" refers to adults buying whatever set.>Last year lego said they were 3-4% of salesDoes lego and every local store age-verify you when you buy a lego set or something....? because that is quite literally impossible to measure so I'm just going to assume that you are talking about the sales of these "adult display" sets.
>lego saidlol
>>11668704Anon, why are you pretending toys that make noises have never been a thing? Come on now.
>>11668704Afols seething bring tears to my eyes, of happiness, smart play is here to stay and I'm so ready for it
not sure if this guy’s a genuine shill or just a contrarian loserits 4chan tho so im gonna guess its the latter
>>11668715>>11668721So now we ignore official company data?
>>11667405how many mouse / lego shills on here get paid to shill the smart brick?
>>11668794None? Lol, maybe people are just excited? Is it that crazy?
>>11668458I think you are either drunk, retarded or a lego-employee. How can these gimmick smart brick deformed sets without even actual star wars sounds remind you of the first wave of Lego star wars?
>>11668835They are simple.
the smart brick and clunky designs aren't really a problem for me, its just how it drives the price up even further which is the issue
>>11668850Agreed
The Verge did a video explaining the smart brick tech, it's the best one:https://youtube.com/shorts/NXJlyDvnvHYThey should have roled with it everywhere because it makes them look great. Everything makes sense here.
>pour vast amounts of money to create a smart brick>market it that it is for kids only and not really for adults>launch it in overpriced star wars original trilogy sets that absolutely no kid cares aboutare they retarded
>>11669014OT is shown to all kids, I will show OT to my kids, OT first, then the prequels and that's it.
>>11669014Just about every star wars fan who's a parent will run through the OT and prequel at least once with their kids. It's an insulated but highly motivated demographic to target.
>>11667405What the fuckhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/CcUTjId-CBo>>11668378Retard
>>11668594I wouldn't mind giving the cape to the right Boba though
>>11668526>Yes, because they sacrifice playfeatures for detail and accuracy so collectorfags can display it on their wholesome reddit shelf.Kill yourself you stupid fucking lying niggerfaggot.
>>11668779Retard-kun he is saying a lot adults are buying the non-adult sets because they are often grossly overpriced.Lego has no data on this.
Just found this in a barnes and noble. Based.
>>11669300Nice, hope the price wasn't complete robbery. B&N can go either way.
>>1166931969.99
>>11669319>>11669321oh I got 10% off at B&N membership as well and sometimes I get 5 dollars off coupons.

>>11669516>>11668495>>11668550>Big gaping hole at the back even with the smart brick attached Eeew
>>11669531I'm pretty sure it's so the brick can "see" the smart fig.
>>11669535This
you WILL only use your lego while permanently connected to the internetyou WILL use your lego under ID verificationyou WILL be happyyou WILL thank for this
>>11669516I think the tech could be great but just not for a licensed theme where sound design and music are so iconic Would sound much better in city sets
>>11668442Well of course you areThere's always retards with low standards ready to eat slop
>>11669535>>11669531>>11669964>>11670028>>11670126All of you STOP fucking up my general. The shitbrick is coming and theres nothing we can do about it so quit your bitching and moaning.Post some actual good /lsw/ content or fuck off to the lego general to bitch and moan about prices and ecelebs.From now on post underrated sets ITT: >picrelI like getting some ships that are used by neither the CIS nor the Republic. This is a neat set and I'm surprised the Roko Hardeen minifig isn't more sought after. It sucks we didn't get a Moralo Eval minifig, that guy was cool and had a cool design.
Clear blocks are fun. Less impressive in pictures though.
>>116674052. HOUR. CHARGE TIME.WITH ONLY 45 MINUTES OF BATTERY LIFEHow do you even begin to fuck up this badly.
>>11670172>my generalYou don't own it
>>11667028>Bounty hunter pursuitHope they don't fuck this up>Bespin DuelHonestly just an updated version of the comic con exclusive would be perfect, I'd been wanting that set.
>>11670439Lego is cheap as fuck. They even cut the capes of the red guards in the emperor’s throne room set in half making them inaccurate and inferior to their previous release. Literally like .03¢ worth of fabric.
>>11670501But why? Vader makes sense because they want the smart brick code but the guard are dumb figs
>>11670439They probably wanted to keep the battery as small as possible to stuff as much tech as they could.
>>11670172God I hated those Clone Wars heads so much.
>>11668594>>11668602Sorry bud but the new helmets are way better. The Storm Troopers ones suck tho cus the head doesn't rotate anymore.
>>11668363the underside looks like shit unless youre looking from the back where the engine exhausts areall the display value is at the top of the build
>>11668429>The Flash Speeder has aged the best.I had only that one as a kid and let me tell you it was boring dogshit. I immediately disassembled it and made my lego pile bigger. Holy shit it was so ugly and boring.I wanted Slave I but my parents were always cheapskates and would only get me the smallest sets or worthless chinese bootleg trash... after all, "its the same thing but cheaper"

star wars is pure slop
>>11670446I started /lsw/ and every time I baked we were on fucking topic and people posted OC.
Hot take:the new ventress minifig is the worst we've ever gotten and its deign quality got overblown due to her coming in a set people wanted and alongside the best obi wan we've ever gotten and the best phase 1 (perhaps the only) clone pilot we've ever gotten.
>>11671022lol imagine being such a loser that you brag about this shit
>>11671027I have very few accomplishments in my life, and this is unironically something I feel proud of.
>>116710252015 is best cause it's based on 2003 clone wars edition of her
>>11671027>you can't be passionate about anythingYou are the bigger loser especially for coming here every single day while actively hating on anything lego star wars.
I really hope the new Zam minifigure is good. I have the classic one an it’s one of my favorites.
>>11667677It's actually gay as fuck you punk bitch. I'm about to be fist deep in your shitter
>>11668429>Flash SpeederFive star taste, my nigger.Goddamn I recall rolling through Theed in the N64's "Battle for Naboo", smoking clankers and kike (((Nemoidians))) for the Queen. In this house, Lieutenant Sykes is a hero

Please stay tuned and we’ll share more information as soon as we can.I hate this company.
>>11671426I was never planning to get them so I don't really care.
>>11671069it's also the one that resembles regular minifigs the closest
>>11671351unfortunately i highly doubt the new one will be anywhere near as good as the original, late '90s early '00s minifigs were insanely good when lego put a little more budget that necessary in them
I'm trying to restore another childhood set.If I disassemble it completely to soap-wash it and reassemble it again are these brown pieces actually going to break...?I heard plenty of the brittle-brown meme but never actually experienced it myself firsthand.
>>11671488Also I swear to god I did not swap these out, I'm like 99% sure mine came with those and I bitched about it as a child as well.
>>11671488>>11671539Is that the original Sail Barge? Honestly I never took to non-millitary vehicles from the OT or Star Wars in general, but since of late I grow more fond of them. Be they an odd bounty hunter's ship or the Hutt's prefered on-world mode of transportation to execution sites.
>>11671548That's the original 2006 one yeah.
>>11671551Looks great. Do you have any heartwarming stories or memories you'd like to share about it? Provided that you don't believe they will lose their value to you, were you to reveal them to us here.
>>11671558I played the shit out of it back in the day, those sails broke off super easily. I really expected at least Jabba to be inside of there when I opened it, but it seems I lost ever single minifig that belonged to it, I literally only have Leia's lose head+hairpiece left for some reason.Everyone in my class was super jelly for not having one as well, and my best friend at the time was a big fan of Boba Fett but never had the minifig, and since I already owned the Slave 1 as well I gifted him my second Boba that came with the Sail barge on his birthday.
>>11671571>friends in school jelly>gifted boba to bobaless frenVery nice. Man, I miss my childhood. You seem to be a bit older than me but I think everyone can relate to the loss of that blissful ignorance of how desolate "real life" is. I miss living without excessive awareness.
When will lego release a stormtrooper only battlepack? Tired of all rebels and clones battlepacks and mandalorians. I want only stormtroopers. Like they did that one for rebels in 2015 I think.
>>11671660I don't know.
>>11671574I'm currently just reliving my past/childhood, buying all these older sets I missed out on, and restoring the ones I have. I only just got back into lego a few months ago and I am thoroughly enjoying it.I sorta get where you're coming from, but it's like, when I looked at my blue Tie Interceptor 20 years ago I thought it was the coolest shit ever.When I look at my blue Tie Interceptor today, I think: "This is the coolest shit ever".Life is a lot less sunshine and bunnies when you grow up, but a lot of old things I enjoyed in the past still exist and my enjoyment for them never changed regardless of growing up. It probably is all just a distraction from reality when you look at the bigger picture, but that's okay really, I've made peace with it long ago.
>>11669014> original trilogy sets that absolutely no kid cares abouti don’t know about modern kids, but us millennials were religiously indoctrinated into OT on VHS before we even saw the prequels
>rex microfighterNow I don't want to play the devil's advocate, but they DO give you one of those helmet pieces that plugs both helmet holes.I have no fucking idea why they include 4 of them though.
i am a zoomer and my mandchild urges are not being metwhere are the seperatists sets lego? where are the bombers, malevolence large capital ships?
>>11672036Both of those already exist.
>>11672041sorry unc im not paying 1000$ for that, i want it new
>>11672004They do that for like, every clone that has a visor or rangefinder. I think the current 501st battle pack comes with enough visors and rangefinders for like, eight minifigs even though there's only four in the box. I think it is just the same as how you usually end up with a handful of 1x1 pieces and studs in every set anyway.
>>11672004I'm not an expert on total lore-accuracy but he does look miles better with that visor instead of the range finder.
>>11672042>1000$Proof?
>>11672469The new rangefinder that they released recently looks better than the old one. But there's a reason why a lot of people seem to think the visored clones (like Cody) look better, but I've seen people say the visor looks too big and awkward too.
>>11671551If it's 2006 I think it will be fine. The brittle brown was from 2013-2015 sets I believe.
>>11672508New ones really do look vastly better. The old ones always felt way too oversized and the shape looks to much like a hammer to me, having that huge injection mold mark right at the front also doesn't do it any favors.
Redpill me on Jedi Bob.
>>11672684>random Jedi with construction worker head came in an somewhat expensive set from 2002>becomes meme people give him the nickname “Bob” because of construction worker head>gets remade to throw afols a boneIs there more to it than that? I have the old figure. It’s okay. I do wish Lego would do more random throwaway original characters to fill out a scene.
>get rid of all my Lego stuff years back>lately nostalgic and curious about modern offerings>reallly cool clone sets>look closer>sculpts are all fucked up and they look weird >storm troopers tooWtf
>>11672835don't mention the family guy stormtroopers man, it breaks my heartI was taking a break from lego while I had my finals in high-school and during university and the few first years on the job.Come back, check lego out, everything is fucked, overprices, they use way too many stickers to deserve to be called "premium toy".
>>11672835Old good, new bad.Buy old.
>>11672835There's still some good builds. Can't really say the same for playsets.If you can't overlook the flawed figs (imo the clones aren't THAT bad) unironically this >>11673073
Why are bionicle fags insanely jealous ninjago is still existing, has an animated series for each wave and is actually comprehensible with no silly alien lore?
>>11673149I don't think you need to be a bionclefag for that.
>>11673149Because they dont get sets or shows, retard.Also, they make the show to sell sets, no doubt. But I wonder if they design the sets they will produce beforehand or if they choose which designs they'll actually make only after they make the show.
Why are these threads so goddamn slow? You'd think one of the most autistic hobbies on the designated autism website would have more traffic.You could make the argument that Star Wars is just that dead these days but even the regular Lego general is slow a shit.It feels like there are literally just 5 people posting in this entire thread.
>>11673149autism + resentment at lego for axing it off twice iirc the first time it was because lego thought the story got too far up its own ass and became impossible for new kids to get into it, the second time seemed more deliberate as they seemingly refused to promote the second year despite the first doing pretty well and then effectively cancelled the line before the summer wave of year 2add on the rumours of disney having a hand in it to not have any competitors for their star wars buildable figures and you have endless seething 11(16) years and counting i think there's also some jealousy since ninjago has been running non stop since 2011, which is the longest any in house theme with actual characters and a story(?)
>>11671831You obviously never heard of the minifig-hasbro debacle.
>pokemon sets are so shit no one's even bothering to talk about them
>>11673616This is a lego STAR WARS general sir, fck off to lg
>>11673616Mega’s Venusaur mogs
Fuck this fat bastard is more expensive than I expected.
There's a beautiful simplicity to classic sets
>>11673682There is, but I think lego sw peaked with early Fleshies.
>>11667028>Upscaled Lego figs are like $60>Dark Bader is $100Fuck off. I'll wait until it's 20% off.
>>11673682
>>11673682I had this set and heavily modified the speeder because I didn't like its flimsy build, I think.It goes without saying that those tusken raiders were the first and best version without question.
>>11673682This was the very first Lego set I ever ordered from the Lego catalog. I still have the minifigures together but I definitely used the bike and antenna thing for other builds.
Mega bloks fucking WON
>>11673737> those tusken raiders were the first and best versionAbsolutely. Bizarre choice to give them custom molded heads later because there was nothing about their heads that were abnormal in the first place.
>>11673665I have several of them. What makes you want to get a classic Jabba?
>>11673682I liked the Epsiode 3 era but Pre Episode 3 Star Wars was undoubtedly my favorite time for lego Star Wars
>>11673863I'm the anon with the 2006 Sail Barge, I want to slowly try and fully restore it.I am missing all the minifigs and a lot of the interior was stripped by my brat-self.
>>11673863>>11673983
>>11673682had this set as a kidit was pretty neat, a few years ago i scavenged it back together but i have no idea where i put the vapourator probably in the some storage bin somewhere
>>11673864honestly the pre rots era of lego is pretty similar to the post rots era until about 2008, and the minifigs were still essentially the same outside of the tcw sets until 2010ishthe 2009 echo base set still uses the original han face and smilies for the basic rebels, just in flesh instead of yellow
>>11673997They were similar I just have a special place in my heart for the attack of the clones sets and the OT sets of that era.
