New 2010 sets!!!????

[Brickweiser]

Palpatine's shuttle comes WITH a clone pilot, the very same from the ARC, and a medical droid.

**EDIT: Actually if you look closely at pictures of the ARC, theres a pilot with a different helmet mold. That be the one that will be with palpy's shuttle

Yep. I saw it a few days ago. Once I saw the Canadian Toyfair pics I decided to fork over the money and order the Aayla from arealightcustoms. It just sucks that you have to go elsewhere to get the arms and legs.

I think TLC dropped the ball on they're version though. I was expecting more since Barriss came out so nice. And Ashoka looks pretty good too.

[Blacknight]

I own the CAB version and just ordered a couple of the Arealight Twileks (not Aayla), so I'm not shy about going to the custom vendors to get the best version. But, I don't see how we can really judge Lego's version yet based on a few small blurry pics from a toy fair of an unpainted pre-production piece.

Hear, hear! I am baffled by the amount of despair towards Aayla when there's so little of it to be seen.

http://www.spieletest.at/bericht.php?ID=775 - the first video on this site shows some of the new Star Wars Sets.
I think it is from the Toys Fair in Nürnberg, Germany

Slave 1 is a Definite for me, even though I already have the 2006 version. Palpatines Shuttle is
a maybe, but probably not cause I have some other things in mind.(nice Vader transforming mechanism, there)
Grevious's starfighter looks way, way better with the printed cockpit, but I'm more excited about the minifigs.
Clone Turbo tank is also a maybe or probably. I must say it looks a lot better now then in the other pictures.
Wampa attack is a definite. Wampa looks great, don't have a the Hoth Playset Snowspeeder, so I need a new version
to go with my BPs and Echo base sets. It's looks like Lego's made my day again.

I do like the new Han in carbonite block. Otherwise... this whole wave of sets is a great big pass for me. Very inexpensive LSW year. Just have to get the two Hoth BPs at some point.

[Garbageman13]

I'm dissapointed that Palpatine's shuttle doesn't have a Vader fig. Still, it might be a nice set for some of the figs.
I'm really liking that Slave 1 set. That seems more promising. Lego certainly knows how to celebrate ESB's 30th anniversary.

HEYHEYHEY !

Improvements have been made on some sets ! (look at the wings of palpatine's shuttle and at the cockpit of grievous's starfighter , ecc...)

[OOM-9]

All these great looking sets and no money (figuratively speaking), but I'm definitely saving for the Grievous star fighter. It looks much better with the printed cockpit.

[Flynn]

Hm, Palpatine's shuttle sure looks a lot better in the video...Not sure if I'll be getting it, though, we'll see how the prices are.

[Brickweiser]

Slave I is really nice. Definitely grabbing it.

[Blacknight]

I wish the Palpatine shuttle was bigger. Lego shuttles are always too small relative to other ships, but I'm holding out hope for a full sized Imperial shuttle being announced soon.

[brownie69yov4]

Palpatine's shuttle looks better then i first thought, but did TLC sit down and decide " hey you know how each shuttle has a boarding ramp, pretty iconic and stuff...cus you know Vader and the Emperor both make their separate grand entrances? yeah well let's go ahead and never include that detail"

I am hoping with the rumored larger scaled Imperial shuttle that we finally get a ramp.

Now we haven't seen really clear pictures of Palpatine's shuttle, but i'm not holding my breath

Best of my knowledge, we haven't seen any pictures of the UCS Lamda Shuttle.

I was actually going to ask about this - is there anything out there besides the minifigs and the UCS-specific model number? March is just around the corner...

[GIR3691]

Well, we do still have over two weeks until March. Toyfair is this weekend though. My guess is that we'll see it then.

When was the LAAT-C/AT-OT first seen last year - same event?
